A statement of the obvious? Not necessarily.
When I first started researching the idea of working online I found a gazillion sites offering me ‘foolproof’ systems that would ‘guarantee’ to have me earning thousands a week by this time next month.
And none of them involved a product.
Many (if not most) of the MLM or Direct Sales [...]

What do you really want for your blog?
If I’m to believe Johnny B Truant’s message it isn’t your first answer.
And I do believe him because, honestly, the answer I’ve given myself for a long time is not the real answer either.
I’ve spent months (years, actually) focused solely on building up traffic for my blog. So [...]
I don’t do New Year’s resolutions.
I’m continually making resolutions to improve the way I do things, so what’s so different about January 1st?
But two articles recently caught my interest and, since it is January, they’ve provoked the closest thing I’ve come to a New Year’s resolution.

The question of whether or not to disclose your affiliate links came up in an article I read on Darren Rowse’s ProBlogger blog today.
It often generates discussion, and the FTC recently got into the act by saying it thought that on-line advertisers should adhere to the same standards as off line advertisers.
It will, by all [...]
I got laid off yesterday and I haven’t felt this pumped up for a long time.
The world, as they say, is my oyster.

Firstly, my then employer had gone out of business owing me a lot of money and, secondly, I didn’t have the right of abode [...]
There are limitless opportunities for starting up an Internet business, with more opening up each day.
But what are some of the more common Internet businesses around and how do you promote them?
If you’ve recently been laid off, or had your time cut back, or if you’re coming up to retirement age and had your pension, [...]
There are many (and a growing number of) ways to make money from home. Many claim that you can generate passive income from home, but be aware: it’s not truly passive – you’ll always need to put in some work if you want it to be successful! (See my thoughts on that here).
And, by the [...]
Here’s a question I saw in a forum today: How can I earn a passive income online?
To my mind the concept of earning a passive income online is one that’s mostly used by people trying to get you to buy their IM book or join their IM related membership site!
Here’s a copy of the [...]
Recessions produce job layoffs, failed businesses and a serious threat to the financial security of millions of people. So what’s the best way of protecting yourself..?
My belief is that you need your own business. Not only are the rewards so much greater when you’re working for yourself, but you have control.
That means that [...]
A while ago I wrote an article directed at people who’ve been working online for a reasonable time (9 months to a year). I said that you probably under-estimate how much you know and suggested some ways you could use that knowledge to earn additional income from local, off-line businesses in your area.
I just wanted [...]
“The most striking figure in the whole report is that private sector payrolls shrank by 101,000 last month compared to a modest 26,000 drop in January,” said Paul Ashworth at Capital Economics, “a decline of that magnitude screams recession”. (Quote taken from BBC News).
More bad news this weekend on the US economy and, meanwhile, [...]
