First of all, let's get one thing straight. There are hundreds of dumb ways people try to make money online. Everything from traditional multi-level marketing to flat out pyramid schemes - none of it works.
If you really want to learn to create income on the internet - in a way that creates a relatively passive income you can enjoy from any location - you need to master the art and science of ranking web pages high on Google. There is no better, more passive source of web traffic.
But again, you'll need to be on the alert because the same scam artists who will sell you other programs will also sell you bogus information about geting free traffic from Google. They buy large amounts of Google advertising trying to convince you to buy their "free traffic program." They're skilled marketers, and they know how to push your buttons.
So how can you find out if a guru is offering you something of value? It's actually very simple - just go to Google and search the terms "make money online" or "make money on the internet." If you find a guru in the organic search listings for those terms, it's very likely they're legitimate and can offer you something of value.
Every time you perform a Google search, you're going to see two different kinds of listings. On the left hand side of the page you'll see what are called the organic listings - they can't be bought or sold - you only get there by knowing how Google works (and how to work Google).
On the other hand, if you see one of the sponsored links on the right hand side of the search results page offering information about free traffic, you'll know it's not worthwhile. Although Google's paid search program is a great way for savvy marketers to get traffic to their websites, it's no place for people trying to teach you how to conquer Google.
There's nothing inherently wrong with purchasing traffic in the sponsored listings on Google. The problem arises when someone who's trying to sell you on the idea of teaching you how to get free traffic can't even get free traffic themselves.
So, when seeking a mentor who can show you how to make money on the internet by getting free traffic from Google, make sure they can prove their knowledge by showing how they themselves are getting free traffic from Google. Choosing the right mentor will be the difference between relatively quick success and possible endless frustration. - 15336
