Default Where to look for honest information???

Hi guys,
I saw lot of advertisements for different courses and stuff about how to make money on the net. However, I feel much of it is just fraud. Can anyone here give me some genuine tips on how a beginner can start or where to look for the correct information?
Thanks!

Hi and welcome!

The best weapon against becoming a fraud victim is education and understanding exactly what it takes to make money out here.

Understand that you will not make much if you do not know how to generate traffic to your website, blog, etc. So anytime you see a company guaranteeing profits without explaining EXACTLY how you will go about marketing your site/blog should be approached very cautiously.

Nothing is easy and it takes a lot of work. So first I would start out by deciding how you want to make money. Do you want to become an affiliate like many of us here where you refer other products and get paid a commission or do you want to sell your own products?

Then once you have an idea for what you want to do, then we can give you more specific advice. You mentioned everything seems like a fraud. Understand you don't have to buy into any "program" or "system" to make money. You can do it the way many of us have done it and that's create your own site and learn the ropes yourself. It's cheaper, often a bit more challenging without the help/assistance.... but definitely doable.

So when you say "fraud" I'm assuming you mean the programs that say they'll help you make money. You don't have to buy into them. You can build your site yourself.

It can be more challenging without the help/assistance...but then again that's what we provide in these forums.
