I am pretty sure that others will agree to to my tittle.
In my own opinion you can make money here if you have knowledge to offer, you can make money here even if you have no IM Knowledge to offer.....
For just being an active member puts you out there. Its as easy as putting a link to your blog/product in your sig and making relevant posts. You don't even of to mention one bit about that link that's in your sig.

I wrote this thread because of something that happened today, it have happened before, I KNOW WHAT TO DO BUT LIKE MOST OF US, I DON'T PUT IN THE WORK. Most of my time spent here on the net is watching music videos and watching movies even though i know that i should be here.

So this is what happened. I have not made a sale for over a month and couple days now. I have not posted on here for a couple weeks but for some stupid reason i came here yesterday i started 3 threads in total and reply to a couple here and there.`May i had that they were about my constant wining about not making any money online. I just wanted to share my situation and hoping for some valuable feed backs. the feed backs have been great, stuff that i should really act upon but its not just the feed back.

See this morning i woke up to a sale of $37. This is not co-incident. This forum is really targeted, its a real gold mind, you just need to know how to use it. I've gotten these types of result in the past put for some stupid reason i find watching youtube, movies and being on facebook more relevant than making money.

I am not telling anyone to go out and spam threads now with a hole-lot-of-bull-shh!t that's irrelevant.

This post is aimed at persons like myself who b!tch alot and do noting.
If you are not making any money online just try to become an active member here, its as simple as posting 3-5 relevant posts per-day.

    I'd have to agree with you on that! I received my first writing jobs by posting here.

    I find the forums are somewhat like a trade show. You show up, mingle, network, and if you're selling something that the people need, you've got a good chance of landing some business.

    I sometimes wonder if sig spammers (people who sprinkle around one line posts) are actually getting clicks. Using the trade show analogy, that would equate to showing up at an ongoing conversation, casually nodding your head while you feign interest, and leaving behind your business card. I can't imagine that's an effective approach...

      I'm the same as you, I got a whole bunch of work through here.
      The key really is to get involved, and not just spam spam spam to get your links wherever you can, but by actually providing some kind of help to people (whether that is by asking questions or answering questions) I think people can quickly associate someone as being generally helpful with being either knowledgeable or having a good customer support, which both create sales.

      I've found there is a stronger link between good activity and good service than between poor activity/spam dropping your link wherever you can get it and good service.
      Its obviously not always the case, some people don't need to get involved at all and provide an awesome service (perhaps not being active on a forum helps them spend more time with their customers haha )

      But when I previously bought content and whatnot on here, I usually made a judgement based on what their Ad said and what their other posts (and threads - service,response rates etc) were like. The whole forum is representing a persona and if you can't sell your persona then you might find it hard to sell your services

      That being said I've been inactive on here for a while just haven't had the time.....

        Well I have had the very similar experience!
        I had started a manufacturing company 11 yrs ago and 100% of my success was going onto the forums and showing the new products I was making and answering people questions about my new and existing products.
        I had built that business into a $138,000 per month business with 5 full time employees and then was able to sell the business for a hefty sum in right about my 2yr mark.
        Forums and internet marketing can make a huge difference in your business success.

        I know right. I guess its not a big deal for those who are already making money but as i said its aimed at persons who are not making any money, these persons would not have any client to care for so they should make full use of the forum.

        sbucciarel I totally agree...
        I'm glad you added that your posts need to add value to the forum and be relevant. That's the most important part. Spamming the forum will have the opposite intended effect.

      Definitely, adding value will get you more than just traffic to your website.

      A very important part of people doing business with you is how they perceive you. If you deliver quality in your posts people will see that you care about your image and and will probably deliver quality in your business transactions.

      If you try to take shortcuts and try to spam the forum, then people will stay away from you like the plague

    What I haven't been able to do YET on this forum is find predictable revenue. I've tried WSO, and at least made my money back, but have made far more (thousands) because someone contacted me out of the blue and wanted to do business. So I agree that activity is going to lead to a greater likelihood of being discovered in some way.

    Yeah, and in fact, if you want to do really well just

    1. Pay $1 for a month of Aweber which allows up to 500 subscribers...More than enough to make some cash.
    2. Pay 1.99 for a .info domain that you can throw a squeeze page on
    3. Spend an afternoon putting together a 5 to 10 page little report on something that interests you related to IM.
    4. While you're doing research for your freebie leave posts in the threads you're reading through
    5. Set up your sig to offer your freebie. Do your best to make it eye catching without going crazy with font sizes and color...Oftentimes less is more.
    6. Continue posting in relevant threads, offering REAL value, and you'll start to see your list grow as people notice your sig.

    Literally all you have to do is what you want to be doing anyways - Just keep feeding your addiction for WF by making good helpful posts in well-trafficked threads, and you'll soon have a nice little IM-niche list for you to endlessly promote too!

    You don't even need an autoresponder setup beyond delivering your freebie, as long as you can make broadcasts you'll be able to monetize your list.

    Food for thought.

    I never thought about that. I Think that should be a good start in launching my very own products which i never did before. I just never rapped my mind around how i should go about doing it.

    I use aweber, after the 1st month its $19. If person dont make back they are in big trouble. I am having problem making that per-month from my email marketing campaigns.

    Thank you.
