Grizzly Brears over at How to Make Money Online for Beginners has written yet another brilliant post that, once again, proves he really does know how to make money online and wants to help you do the same!

Unlike the John Chows of the world who don’t know shit about making money online, other than the fact that they got lucky with a blog that doesn’t actually teach anything, Griz really does know what he is talking about and he has no problem giving away his knowledge so others can follow his path to success.

I will tell you right now how you can get all the information you need to make money online for free. It comes from three bloggers who have made it their mission to expose all the lies and misconceptions about making money online and give you the honest truth about what you need to do and how to do it. And they don’t charge a cent for the information.

These three bloggers are Grizzly Brears (mentioned above), Vic Franqui from Blogger Unleashed, and Courtney Tuttle from the Internet Marketing School.

I’ve been making money online as an internet marketer for the past 5 years (started in May of 2003). And I can say with 100% certainty that these guys know what they are talking about and the information they freely give away will work. I have learned more about making money online from those three in the past few months than I have in all my 5 years of internet marketing combined.

I have no idea why anyone would waste their time reading blogs like John Chow or any of the hundreds of other so called make money online blogs like his that don’t actually teach anything at all. The only thing they do is suck your money from you and whore their blogs out as much as possible to gain as much profit as they can without giving anything in return.

If you DON’T want to make money online but you do want to GO BROKE trying, then I suggest you follow John Chow and any other blogger that has adopted his style.

But if you are serious about making money online and you are tired of not getting anywhere with everything you have tried then I recommend you follow the Griz, Vic, and Court schools of making money.

Let me say it again…

Forget John Chow - Follow Griz! (As well as Vic & Court)

Oh and since you are reading my blog, I suppose I should probably tell you to follow me as well. There really is a lot of great home based business information here too so don’t forget to come back often. End of shameless plug!

There are thousands of people who call themselves “internet marketers” sitting at their computers right now with the intentions of making money online. However, most of them will not make any money, or if they do make some money, it’s won’t be nearly as much as they were hoping to earn.

So, why is it that so many internet marketers are not making money?

It’s because most of them are simply wasting their time when they are “working” online! There are countless ways this can happen. Often times when internet marketers think they are working, they really aren’t. One example is checking your email 20 times per day. I could go on and on giving you examples of how you are wasting your time each day but instead I challenge you to sit back and think about that for yourself.

I will, however, tell you that one of the biggest things internet marketers do to waste their time is blogging. I bet that got your attention! You have been conditioned to think that blogging is vital for online business so you are probably wondering why the heck I would say that it’s a waste of time and will not make you any money.

Here’s why…

In order to make money online, you need traffic to your website or blog. There is no way to get around this fact. However, when you spend all day writing blog posts, you forget to do one very important thing… Market your blog! As an “internet marketer” the most important part of your job is to market.

You can have the best blog in the world with more original content than all ten of the top blogs in your niche, but that means nothing if you don’t get any visitors. Your site might contain the secret to life, but if nobody knows about your site they will never read it. Do you see what I mean? Unless you get visitors, you won’t make money!

But you can’t just get any kind of traffic either. You don’t want untargeted traffic. You don’t want Web 2.0 traffic. You don’t want other internet marketers and bloggers as your main source of traffic. Why? Because those are the people that won’t click your ads, buy from your affiliate links, or even notice any of the things you have on your site that will make you money.

You need to get traffic from the search engines! The visitors you get to your website/blog from search engines are targeted, they are actively searching for your topic, and they don’t have a clue what Adsense is or what affiliate links are. Plus, if you have done your research and are in the right niche, they are ready to spend money. These are the visitors you make money from.

So, what’s the lesson here?

Simple… Stop wasting your time posting to your blog just hoping someone will come read it. Or wasting even more of your time on digg, myspace, delicious, or any of the other social bookmarking and social networking sites that will bring you traffic but not the kind that will make you any money.

Instead, spend more time each day getting inbound links and working on other search engine optimization techniques. Use as much time as you can each day getting your website/blog ranked at the top of the search engines so you can bring in more of the type of visitors that will make you money.

Doing this one simple thing will greatly increase your chances of making money online so you can quit your job to become a full-time internet marketer and live the life you’ve always dreamed of. Now, stop wasting your time and start making money!

Starting in a home business fills most of us with apprehension, but once the money is handed over, we want to see some return on our investment. Most of us jump in and then say, “OK, what now?”

Blogging is the answer and it can all be done for free. The first thing to do is to start an account on blogger.com or wordpress.com They offer a series of templates to help you design your blog. Give yourself an hour or two and experiment. Play with all the templates and see what the versions look like. It’s actually fun to do and will help take away the stress that comes with working with the unfamiliar. 

Now you need to think of a great title for your blog. Try to think of something creative that will give the readers (and the search engines) an idea of what you essentially are trying to promote. If your title has great key words that you will use in many of your posts, the more it will be recognized. Do not stress about that though, just think of something that suits you and your personality and your product or business.

Start writing and introduce yourself. The best way to create a following is to give them a reason to want to read your blog. It is not only about the information you will offer them. That is a major part of it indeed, but it is not the only reason that people will want to come back. 

The internet is so anonymous and there are millions of people doing exactly what you are doing. Add a personal touch and let people begin to see who you really are. Show your personality, vulnerability, creativity, intelligence, knowledge, flaws and whatever you can in your writing.  Intersperse your posts on your product and the business in general with a post on how excited you are about your business. Tell a humorous story that teaches a life lesson. Write about your progress. Let the reader see your successes and sometimes failures and they will begin to trust you.

In between those articles start researching SEO and take it a little at a time. Obviously you want your blog to be read and indexed by the search engines. It takes time. 

Take baby steps and enjoy the entire process because it is truly a blast!

Well, it’s finally gotten to the point where I just got sick and tired of all the lies being perpetrated on those first starting out trying to run their own business online. The amount of misinformation that’s out there is out of control. So I decided to do something about it.

Today, I created the first in what will be a long line of videos blowing the lid off of all the garbage that people are peddling as truth. I’m leaving no stone unturned and pulling no punches. I expect to get a lot of static from this series and that’s fine. I can take it.

You’re going to have a lot of what you thought was truth literally blown to bits. You won’t like a lot of what you’re going to see and many of the “gurus” peddling the crap they’re calling “product” are going to hate this even more.

I have no idea how long this series will run. I’ll end it when I feel I have nothing left to say. As much as I can run off at the mouth, that may not be for some time. So enjoy it, or not, while you can.

You can view the first installment of the series here.
