My brother, Bob, yes I really have a brother named Bob, keeps telling me the way to make a fortune on the internet is to write and sell information on …. wait for it ….. are you waiting?
Making a fortune on the internet. Think about it. All those people you follow on Twitter, on Facebook, on linked In, they are all touting the same thing. Follow me, spend your money on my product and I will show you how to make a fortune. In the meantime, they themselves are making a fortune, hopefully.
And this is a good way to make money. There are people out there that will buy just about anything with the promise of making a fortune. Ok let’s face it there are people out there that buy for just the promise of making enough to pay the mortgage right now. The financial state of this country is in such turmoil that people will grasp anything to help them through.
Which brings through another point. There are a lot of geniune people out there that want to help people make money on the internet. They have a geniune concern to help people. Most are people who have made it and are now helping others up that hill.
But as many people out there that are great people to follow and learn from there are a bunch of scammers as well. To be quite frank, telling the genuine from the scammers can be a full time job.
So what are we left with? Really? Are we left floundering to the left and right trying to figure out the “real” way to make money on the internet? Do we jump on the bandwagon and the latest craze that everyone else is following? Do we blaze our own path to see what we can see out there?
Well I honestly think there is a few golden rules to follow when you are trying to make your fortune here on the interent.
- Follow your heart. Do what you love. Let’s face it, if we do something that we are not the least bit interested in to make money, we will eventually fail. We have to find something that our hearts are in.
- Give your customers/clients what they came to the internet looking for – Information. That is what anyone entering a search word in google is looking for. They want to know something about something. As long as you deliver on that promise, you will succeed.
You could sell information on how to make a fortune on the internet, if that is what you are good at and where your passion lies. You could offer information on how to change a burned out rear turn signal on a Ford Focus. While it may not make you an instant success sooner or later you will find your niche and with persistance you will be able to pay that mortgage or even make that fortune you are dreaming of.
And if that fails, consider the lottery. It’s always a back up plan!

Great idea! I have about 40 people a day that visit my blog. Don’t forget ‘google images’. Many people look for pictures and find me through them. Take good interesting pictures.
Great information though it seems like there is just too much competition in the “money” niche – I would rather tackle a niche that was easier to rank well for
