One of the things I love to do first thing every morning
is to check the Internet, to find out how much money
I made over the night. Like a fisherman checking on
his trap, I am thrilled to see money accumulating
in my account while I sleep. The beauty of earning
an income from the Internet is that my websites continue
make money for me from all parts of the world. I can
actually know where the money come from, and how much,
and test the pages to continue improving them. Wouldn't
you want that too?
Before you get the wrong idea, let me clear the air
about how I make money from the web. HappyJoblessGuy
is NOT about earning money from some online pyramid
schemes. It is not about Multi-Level Marketing (even
though I have no issue about people earning through
MLM). It is not about online forex trading. Apparently,
many people seem to think that if you want to earn
a living online without holding a job, you need to
be involved in pyramid schemes, MLM or online forex
trading. Well, I am going to show you an honest way
of generating income from the web but it's going to
involve a degree of hard work from you. For sure,
nothing comes easy, and that includes building a machine
that makes money online. And I have to say this: many
of you will be unsuccessful. Some of you may be unsuccessful
many times before you succeed - and if you're one
of those who succeed after many tries, be comforted
to know I am one of them too. Indeed, to do it well
involves a certain level of "smartness".
But the fruit of the labour will be more than worth
the effort. And - it is entirely possible!
Today you can have your websites built and hosted
without ever needing to be hands on. For example,
you can sign up an account with PBase, Tripod, Blogger,
etc, and within an hour, you have a website of your
own. If you intend to earn serious, long-time income,
that is not the way to do it. You want something that
is 100% your own.
Once you have your own website (not an account with
Blogger, PBase, etc.), you will realise the amount
of freedom in your hands. It is this freedom which
I would wish upon you. As I have mentioned, I am providing
you this information for free. Unlike some websites,
you do not have to pay money to receive my e-book.
You just need to be patient while the chapters are
developed. Do write to me when you are successful,
I would love to hear your testimonial.
If you were to ask me, what are the tools you need
to build a great website, I can count them with the
fingers of one hand.
There are five basic elements you need to build not
just a website, any website, but a great one. The
fact of the matter is, you can hire a web programmer
to build a whole website for you, bypassing the need
to be acquainted with any tool. But to own a really
great website, I would urge you to do it yourself.
You can't be the captain of your own ship if you can't
tell stern from starboard. Occasionally, you may get
a programmer to do things which you aren't familiar
with, but the bulk of it should be done by you. The
good news is , you don't need to know much about programming;
all you need are the five essential tools which I
am about to share with you. Learn it, and you've taken
five major steps forward towards earning an income
without holding a job.
I have received emails from people asking to give
them personal coaching. I am sorry, but I do not have
time to do that, even if you're willing to pay me
money.
I prefer to spend all my time writing and rewriting
the pages of this website, until it is perfect. It
is very important to me that I get it right. Your
very success depends on it, so I want this to be the
most useful website you have ever read. Be patient
as this website develops. I need time to organise
my thoughts, to sort each topic out. If you don't
understand anything, read and reread the articles
until they make sense to you. Through this website,
I will be your guiding light, but I will not be spoon
feeding you.
In the next five pages of this chapter, I will go
through each essential tool one by one. At the end
of this chapter I will recap what we have learned.
You will realise, if you haven't yet, that earning
a living without holding a job requires you to learn
skills that you may not have learned before. On the
other hand, you may have built many websites, and
are wondering what's new that I want to share. Once
again, I urge you to be patient as the topics are
developed.
