ATTN: Money Makers

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by browie, May 14, 2007.

    Observation:

    How come when you guys post that you're making all kinds of money like, 1K a month or even just 100/week, it's such a big secret?

    I don't have a website that makes money. I have my career and all this web stuff is a hobby. I just like to learn about web stuff and hope to get a check from adsense someday to use for my users. I'm just wondering how come there is an unwritten rule about sharing how you made your cash.

    No, I'm talking about the DP users. People will post about their 1,000 month and such and then that's it.

    Maybe I'm a kind of see it to believe it. I just wondered why people don't say how they did it. I mean if I got 1,000 in a month I might tell people to get them started.

    Maybe I'm still a noob.

    You wrote an ebook? I guess I didn't see it unless you meant that article you wrote.

    I wrote the ebook about 6 months ago - you can read about it in this thread:
    My original eBook thread
    It was very popular and very well received, and got dozens if not hundreds of positive reviews.

    V4 of the ebook will be in my blog - i'll be posting about one new section per week over the next several weeks.

    Why would someone write how they made their money? That's just asking for competition.

    People will only share their secrets if there is something in it for them. If other people find out someone is making money, they will just be competition and then the word will spread from there.

    I have good news for you: there is no big secret. Like iatbm said, it's just work... And some common sense too.

    There is no secret. Build a website with good unique content/services that people will want to link to and with repeat visitors. Do this and you'll succeed given enough time and perseverance.

    Its like any other business out there, how much serious you're working on it and the returns will be there... like say.. Learn, Test, Expertise..

    Also, I already bought Tearabite's ebook few months back and its just wonderful..

    off topic: I just gave a short read on your blog (apart the background that would make some corners of a post invisible "or my eyes are just too tired today") i really liked your blog. Not the design, as i mentioned in the ()'s but i really did liked your writing skills, not usual from a for TCP/IP networking administrator :p (just teasing).

    back to topic: If i had worked so hard, and invested months and $$$ to reach that goal, why should i give away all the tips and techniques i had learned during those months just like that for free? Makes no sense in a certain point of view. Usually people start to show off tips and techniques once they notice that many have found out about that technique and every day much more people start to use it, so they share it in a eBook or in their blog (posting it partially and daily, so they can keep the visitors attention and they come back to his blog). nifty no? :> but thats another secret, ups...it is not anymore.

    There's a bunch of webmaster secrets out there. Well not really secrets, but ways to make cash using various methods [If that is the ultimate goal].

    If someone needs to be spoonfed this information, they don't deserve to make money. Others have spent a large amount of their time researching and figuring out what needs to be done to make money online.
