The Backlash Against Online Marketing eBooks


Making money online programs and the eBooks that teach these methods have been going strong for the past couple of years. Just recently, though, a backlash of the product is making people think of it as a scam, not a money making venture.






For some strange reason, over the last 3 weeks, I have read and seen about a half of a dozen articles, blogs, emails, etc. focusing on the topic of how online marketing eBooks are nothing but a scam. Sure, there are always going to be critics, but is this sudden rise in awareness justified, or is it just a coincidence? I have a interesting intrepretation of this situation from two stand-points: 1) I got into the online money making business using one of these eBooks. 2) I run a review site (http://www.thewebreviewer.com) that focuses on reviewing these exact programs. In the early part of this year, I did what most of you have done: I needed extra money so I typed something like "Make Money Online", "Extra Cash", or "Get Rich Quick" into a search engine like Google or Yahoo. At that time, I knew nothing about affiliate marketing, paid surveys, wholesaling, data entry programs, etc. I spent a few nights researching it and finally found a program that I wanted to try out. This eBook has changed my life. I spent the first 3 months making no money, spending a tons on advertising and getting little traffic to my products. I was learning. The last six months, I have created a number of websites and campaigns and earn steady income as a supplement to my 9-5 job. (This was exactly what I wanted to do). The point is that I would have never made it to this point without the guidance of an online marketing eBook. It taught me the fundamentals: 1) What it is. 2) Where to find products. 3) Where to sell products. 4) How to promote products. 5) How to maximize my earning potential. Understanding the fundamentals is KEY before you can actually start making money. Again, the first three months were spent learning the system, the last six months have been reaping the rewards. At the end of the day, it was ME that made this system work (through hard-work, education and trial & error), but I needed this eBook to get the ball rolling in the first place. (How do you ask a question, if you don't know which questions to ask!?) Secondly, I have an insight that not many have on these online money making eBooks: I review them! I post on my website about a half-dozen different programs, but I have read about twice that over the past year. I have learned a few things from this: 1) About 75% of all Online Money Making eBooks are the same: They have the same chapter headings and the same content. Some go over the "what" a little bit more; others go over the "how". 2) The last 25% is usually some "innovative" or "unique" marketing or product idea that this specific get rich program specializes in. In most cases, these ideas are a bit far-fetched for most, but are always worth a read. 3) It is usually the "bonuses" that distinguish these programs from one another. Some may offer personal counselling. Others may offer a free website or a paid surveys list. Some do not offer much of anything. At the end of the day, the content is there to get you an idea of what you need to do to make money online. So, does this really work? Of course, my answer has to be yes. The reason? I would not be here today writing this article if this did not work for me. So why the backlink against these Affiliate Marketing or Money Making eBooks? I am guessing it could be a few reasons:


1) Speaking out against such eBooks can be controversial (which can be an effective marketing tool to promote your own product...or "anti-product" for that matter!)


2) A lot of people try these programs and a lot of people fail. Not everyone will be successful doing this and those who are not are surely going to consider this a scam.


3) More competion means more work and less sales. Some may bad-mouth the programs just to prevent more people from trying. (The internet is a very big place, though, and there is plenty of ways to still make money!)


At the end of the day, I find these articles that bad-mouth online marketing eBooks a bit silly. SurePsychology Articles, some of them are pretty bad (and pretty short!). But some will provide you with tools to begin making money online in no time.

Versace by Rosenthal Medusa Lumiere Clear Crystal Whiskey Glasses, Set of 2



Versace by Rosenthal Medusa Lumiere Clear Crystal Whiskey Glasses, Set of 2
Lumiere, French for "light," epitomizes the delicacy and brilliance of hand-blown, full-lead crystal. Adorned with Versace's iconic Medusa head, each sparkling tumbler or stem in the collection makes a perfect accompaniment to Medusa porcelain dinnerware. The two Lumiere Clear whiskey glasses in this set are designed especially for sipping a fine single malt Scotch or a sparkling bourbon-and-soda on the rocks. Measuring 3-1/2 inches tall and holding 5-3/4 ounces, each octagonal-sided tumbler feels secure in the hand and luxuriously weighted, thanks to the dense base in which lies the Medusa image of Greek--and Versace--mythology.

Ever since Versace, Italy's provocative house of haute couture, and Rosenthal, one of Germany's most prestigious porcelain companies, teamed up in 1993, the resulting dinnerware and gift collections have made spectacular waves. Classical and wildly imaginative themes leap to life with uninhibited combinations of color and line. Also available in a colored version, each Medusa Lumiere set comes secured in a Versace gift box, sure to both delight and impress the recipient. Like all fine crystal, the whiskey glasses should be washed carefully by hand. --Ann Bieri



Sport Fish of the Gulf of Mexico



Sport Fish of the Gulf of Mexico
This full color 264-page book from long-time fishing legend and Florida Sportsman Magazine Sr.Editor Vic Dunaway features his 50-plus years of fishing knowledge. Each of the 194 species is illustrated with original full-color artwork from renowned marine artist Kevin R. Brant. The book answers many common questions, providing specific information about the type of fish, its range and habitat, identifying features, whether or not it is good to eat, the average and record size of each fish and the best fishing methods to catch them.

Customer Review: Don't get fined???????

With so many restrictions and diffrent types of fish in the gulf, the last thing you want is an illegal fish. "Sport Fish of the Gulf" is on my vessel when I fish!

Customer Review: Essential for the emerging gulf fisherman

I enjoyed reading each and every species entry. The author is obviously a fish enthusiast when it comes to cuisine due to the fact that 90% of the animals he lists are described at the very least as 'tasty'. The illustrations are exquisite and the descriptions for each fish type are thorough. I would recommend this book for anyone new to fishing the Gulf of Mexico.

These "mutants" are hated and feared by humanity at large, and the X-Men come together to protect both mutants and human from prejudice and evil mutants alike. You'll get to follow their incredible adventures as they span four amazing decades.

Customer Review: A perfect gift for the comic book fan who has almost everything

My husband loved this as a gift. He is a long-time comic book fan and this gave him an opportunity to read some of the very first editions that are way before his time. They look amazing on the computer, plus you can print if you want. (with 15,000+ pages I can't imagine why you'd want to) I was concerned about Mac compatibility, but since the thing is just a PDF interface, you just need Acrobat, no special Windows-only software. We're looking to pick up the Spiderman collection next.

Customer Review: Nice read

It is just as it says. A pdf scan of all comics. It's really neat to read some of these again. Great value and good entertainment.

Customer Review: quality product/very limited return policy

I was very pleased with the quality and look of the leather tote when I received it. What I did not know when I purchased it was that they absolutely would not take the tote back after 30 days. The slip said they would send it back to you if you tried to send it to them. This would not have been a problem if it had been for me, but I purchased it in November as a Christmas gift. It would have been impossible to give the recipient the option of returning it or exchanging it. In addition, if you return it within a 30 day period they still charge you a restocking fee for sending it back. Internet purchases are tricky because you don't see the product in person, so a very restricted return policy makes it very unlikely for me to purchase from this company again.

Customer Review: Great bag!

This tote has lots of space and is easy to carry. The look is both casual & classy.
