Every day is school day

More and more I realize that it is not easy to crack open the Internet clam. There are many pitfalls for the unwary. When I started out about a month ago, I thought it would be a cakewalk. My mind was telling me the resources are all out there. All I had to do was pick one or two of the sure-fire formulas and I would be on my way to hog heaven. The more I read the words they used, the more I became cautious. Why would an important, successful Internet Enterpreneur want to help some newbie become rich and successful using his own technique? They spend time and money on email campaigns that dog my tracks everyday with email after email telling me how easy it is for me to become rich and successful. Every one is after something that they want to get from me and I suspect it the motivation might not be the altruistic thrust which they trumpet in their ads. Why would they want me to give them money? Is not the hundreds and thousands of dollars that they make every day not enough for them? Somehow to my mind, this does not compute.

I get variations of the same thing every day on my email. They want to make me successful and they want me to enroll in some super secret underground club where only paying members will be making tons and tons of money. Somehow, I cannot get the logic of the whole deal. Here I am, totally without resources and there they are: ultra sleek and totally successful and they waste their time on me? What is the real score? I have a hard time figuring this out and I guess I will never know if what they are saying is true since I do not have any money to prove the efficacy of their systems.

I do know a few things from my five weeks of trying to get into this online business:

• I need a website
• I need visitors to that website
• Google Adsense is a good way to monetize my website
• Google Adwords can drive traffic to my website ( here I will have to spend money)
  
• Affiliate programs also monetize my website
• Getting visitors is not so easy

It is almost like a catch-22 type of situation. The good news is that since I dont have any money to spend my education will only be as expensive as the effort that I am willing to put into trying to find out the real score about "Making Money Online". This search for El Dorado is taking on a while new scope for me. If I had any money at all then I would surely join the ranks of those who say they have been duped by many unscrupulous operators in the Internet. This is really like Real Life except you don't meet anyone face to face. I am sure that I will somehow unlock the secrets that are so far being kept from me. Or maybe, the answers are just staring at me in the face and all I should be doing is plunk down my dollar and start blasting away to millions.
