    I feel really confused when my frenz and family members ask what job do i do or how do i make money?
    because if i tell them that i make money from internet and i help ppl to get their site listed in google top rankings n i put google ads on my site n affiliate programs n i make money.. they all laugh .. .lol
    they dont belive it n they think google lists sites of their own.. as well if i tell that i am SEO.. they shout like CEO? i said man its SEO .. n none of them undrstnd it
    so finally i say i m just a web designer...
    this is really crazy i mean what to answer..

    I am sure 90% of you people have faced this kind of situation.. so what do you answer in this kinda situation??

    I hate having to explain to people how I make money online too. I say from websites, but that is never enough for them they want to know every detail.

    hahaha... or maybe you just tell them that you are an Online Search Engine Marketer... in Search Engine Marketing... then when they say what's that, you say... "that's classified" and walk away like Tom Cruise from Top Gun "If I told you, then I'd have to kill you" - Maverick
