Examiner Scam I don't think so 0

Most people find my writings about Examiner.com by Googling "Examiner scam" or "How much does Examiner.com pay writers?" and the like.

I know what they Google because I'm able to use the lovely, free StatCounter.com stat-tracking code to see what search terms bring people to my websites -- and before Examiner.com's recent web redesign, I was able to use it there, too, along with Google Analytics.

Ah well, hopefully we'll get some of that ability back, but I'm not going to jump on the bandwagon of folks filling up message boards with complaints about Examiner's recent redesign. I just pray the gravy train keeps up and increases as God sees fit.

Yesterday I made about $56 on my Cleveland Examiner pageviews, but I can only surmise that it was The Word Church Akron writings that brought in those views.

A friend asked me on Facebook about writing for Examiner, so that gave me a chance to get into my PayPal account and download the Examiner.com (Clarity Digital) pay info since 9/1/2009 (when I started) till now -- and I was pleased as punch to see the total sitting very near $30k, as broken down by month below.

It's over $30k if you add in the CJ.com referral payments (just got 90 bucks in my checking account) for all the $5 affiliate payments I receive for folks who apply to write for Examiner under my link over there in the bottom of the YouTube video.

Again, the only thing that gives me pause about Examiner (and tons of other mainstream news websites a lot more major than them like CNN or MSNBC, etc.) are the ads that they allow to run. Some are just fine, from major advertisers -- but I don't like those scammy ads that I spend time warning folks about on my other site.

I guess other reporters who write for sites like CNN may not give a wink about the plethora of ads that may be scamming folks out of money -- after all, we can't control ads on sites that aren't ours. I made sure to block all the "get rich quick" and other ads via my Google Adsense account on the sites that I control. Surely other sites can do the same, blocking those Pulse 360 places or whatever that show the scam ads.

Perhaps I think too much, but my Adsense took a dip in pay when I blocked the ads, but the Lord rewarded me in other ways, like a whole lotta Kindle 3 sales.

But anyway, we'll see where the Examiner leads -- here's hoping some good people can still make good money thru them. And even though some of the tips I've given via the link above in my blog to getting great pageviews are now obsolete since our ability to edit the HTML is now gone, some of the others are still valid and worth reading if you're looking for a way to make money writing online.

Reasons Why You Not Making Money Online 0

I run into people all the time who cry and complain saying that making money online is impossible. They say they have been trying for 2 years and have yet to make a dime. I immediately ask them how much time they are spending on their business. And most of them say one or two hours a week. Are you kidding me? How do you expect to be truly successful by spending just two hours a week on your business. But the funny thing is that during that 2 hours, most of them only get one article written or one video created. And they wonder why they aren't making any money. It just really blows my mind. Either way, here are the 3 most common reasons why you probably aren't making any money online.
You Don't Believe In Yourself - Most people don't actually believe making money online is possible for them. If you don't believe in yourself you will stay in learning mode and never actually do anything. You need to free yourself from disbelief and limiting thoughts. They don't serve you.

You Don't Stick With Anything - Too many people just jump around from one opportunity to the next. If you want to be successful online you will need to learn how to stick with one thing until it starts to produce fruit. Jumping around will only keep you broke. Every time you buy a new product or dive into another make money online opportunity, you are starting all over. So stop doing that.
You Are Lazy - This is probably the second biggest reason so many people fail online. You are just plain out lazy. You don't want to do any work. You are constantly looking for the easy button. Well guess what? There is no easy button. If you want to make some money you will have to do some work. There is no way around it.

Developing Passive Income 0

Summary
This article will define a passive income business model and present four popular, online passive business structures to the reader.
Developing a passive income business [part I] - What is a residual income model?
A residual or passive income asset is defined as a financial stream of income, that upon successful, initial set-up, is able to support its owner with a long term influx of money. This model of operation does not require an active approach from the business owner thus producing non-active income.
The pros/cons of this business plan include:

• Able to generate a consistent stream of funds
• Does not require an active approach after initial set-up (leaving the entrepreneur with more time on his hands)
• In comparison to an active stream of income, a passive one does not require heavy maintenance, diminishing the expenses of the business owner
• Initial, successful set-up is often times hard to execute, heavy research is an absolute must

Developing a passive income business [part II] - Online residual income models in use nowThe residual income model has gained a solid online foundation, with the Internet presenting ever more opportunities to its user-base. An online residual income stream holds many advantages, such as the simplification of the original set-up process, overall inexpensiveness and the speediness of the set-up, over non-active income streams of the past.
Four of the most popular online passive income business models are:

• Affiliate marketing
• Information trade
• Selling information products
• Selling advertising space

The first of the four is the most popular choice of many entrepreneurs. Affiliate marketing is closely associated with multi level marketing, yet it is quite different in many regards. Both of them amount to referring new clients and finding new sales leads for the service or product that is being promoted, however affiliate marketing programs offer real services and products that solve needs and can benefit the consumer. MLM networks, on the other hand, are not stable passive income business models, as the product or service promoted within them is not the primary vehicle behind a sale, thus no new wealth is generated.
Affiliate marketing consists of associating oneself with a product or service provider and then setting up a promotional campaign to push this product out into the masses. The affiliate marketer gets paid on a commission basis. A successfully executed promotional campaign is then able to generate residual income for the affiliate.
Another popular passive income business model lies in the trade of information. Here several instruction-type resources are set up by the entrepreneur, these receive an ongoing royalty-based commission or can be of promotional manner, thus binding in the previously mentioned business model. This type of passive income business model is attractive because of its simple initiation. It is however not the most efficient way to generate residual income, despite its non-complicated nature. Article marketing (as it falls under this type of business model), for example, can be very "slow-moving" and it might take up to 4 months to see some profits.
The next passive income business model is the most effective of the four but is also characterized by the most difficult initial set-up. The typical Internet user is a very "information-hungry" entity. Selling information products can be very lucrative, if an entrepreneur is able to provide a unique, sought after solution or upgrade an already existing one. This business model requires an immense knowledge base, as well as a good grasp of Internet marketing and product creation. Not to be attended by beginners.
The last passive income business model becomes feasible in combination with an already established, popular Internet resource. This a source of non-active income if a blog or website generates a healthy amount of traffic. A popular niche blog, for example, can successfully sell advertisement space for about 1k-2k a month.
Conclusion
There are several ways to develop a money making non-active income source. It is crucial to start out with the simplest option available, get your feet we and then proceed to more advanced passive income business models. Try to gain as much information as possible, either through Google or an educational resource of your choice, in order to avoid the possibility of costly mistakes.
