• Take something of value to your local pawn shop – I know this sucks and is kind of embarrasing but if you need the money bad enough “you gotta do what you gotta do” if you know what I mean. I’ve done it before in my past life and it works. You better walk in with a stern face and don’t look desperate or they will eat you for lunch. Don’t expect more than half the value of whatever it is you’re trying to sell.
• Have a garage sale – This can be done fairly quickly granted the weather is nice and you can get a few signs posted around your neighborhood. Growing up, there was a guy in my neighborhood who would have a couple garage sales a week. He would go buy storage lockers full of peoples crap that forgot to pay their bill and then sell it at his garage sale.
• Sell something on craigslist – I’ve personally liquidated a lot of things on craigslist from cars, to boats to power tools and usually I’d have money the same day I listed it for sale.
• Payday loans – If you have any kind of job you can go to a payday loan store and get an advance on your check but at a hefty interest rate based on how quick you pay it back and how much you need. Again, this is something I’ve done before but I only recommend it as a last resort because you can get yourself in quite a pickle if you cant repay.

These are just a couple ways for some fast cash today but let’s avoid this urgency for cash in the future by setting up some online income streams that can pay you for years to come. Take a look around at the other posts I’ve put up and stay tuned because I try to bring you guys strategies that are rewarding and easy to implement as often as possible. Unfortunately you can’t really make money online today without other skills that you can learn right here over time. In fact, hunt down my post on making sales as an affiliate through Paypal 100% commission affiliate programs. If you have a Paypal debit card and you can make some sales into your Paypal account you could access that cash in the same day by going to the ATM machine. Of course you would have to know how to make sales as an affiliate and we will get more into that in future posts.

If you haven’t heard already Brain Host is offering a free money making websites to anyone who signs-up with them. You may have found this offer through My Creative Site Designs as well. I’ve personally got my free money making website from Brainhost.com and I love it! No other web hosting company is doing it. These sites are unique and DO make you money. My website is making about $20 a day and I don’t do anything to promote it.

I’ve been making money online for 7 years now and I’ve tried just about every free money making website offer out there and every single one of them gives you some terrible looking cookie cutter template. Not Brain Host! They give you a custom, unique website built on the WordPress platform. These types of sites do really well in the search engines and it gives you an honest shot at getting ranked which means money in your pocket.

If you would like to get a free money making website from Brain Host go here.  Another cool thing many of you may not know is once you have your hosting account and your first website, you can just buy more domains at about $9 a pop and then call into customer service to order more money making websites and they build them for free! I just found this out the other day and I have 10 more sites being built as we speak.

Tip: Get your first website setup, follow the training and when your fist site starts making money, call Brain Host and get more domains and websites. If you’ve got 10-20 sites making you $10 a day each that’s $100-$200 a day in passive profits. If you look at stats, most people in America don’t make this kind of money working 8 hours a day, 5 days a week!

What they’ve created for money making minded folks like ourselves is a custom money making website solution. All you have to do is sign-up with them for a hosting account and a domain name and they will build up to 10 money making websites for you per domain you purchase. If you would like to get even more creative you can call them and discuss even more options for your money making websites. By default your website comes standard on the WordPress blog platform using a special plugin that gives the website a real website look and feel as opposed to the look of a blog.

Here’s how it works. You go to My Creative Site Designs and register for an account and choose a hosting plan. If you want a deep discount I recommend you choose a pre-paid option and it basically brings the monthly cost down considerably. Once you pay for your hosting you’ll be able to choose the topic to have your website built around. Usually you want to pick a topic or “niche” with mass market appeal that way you can make the most money possible from the ads and affiliate offers displayed on your website.

Once you’ve got your first website online, you’ll want to look into a training program that teaches you how to make money with websites. One great website off hand is called SimpleSiteProfits.net. Last time I checked they offered a daily webinar that shows you exactly how to make money with simple websites like the one you will get over at My Creative Site Designs. Once you’re making money with your first site and you understand how everything works the next step is to put up another website. Continue putting up sites until you are making good money. All you have to do to get more websites up with Brain Host is to buy a new domain with them and tell them you want another site built for it.

Just as a quick side note, here is a great Brain Host review from a customer who has been using them since they’ve been around.  I share the experience as the reviewer who put up this review. They are hands down the best web host on the block.

As for the other options out there, you really wont find a better value and quality of website then what Brain Host and My Creative Site Design provides. A lot of the other money making website offers out there only give a cookie cutter website that has no search engine value and you’ll likely have little success getting it ranked in the search engines. In order to make real money with a website you need to have a quality website that the search engines will love. This way your website will get a lot of traffic which will make you a lot of money.

Now I understand not everyone is a computer geek with the ability to build a website from scratch and not to worry because there is a program out there that will take all the guess work out of setting up profitable websites and they will even build your websites for you. You can read more about the program here: Websites4income.com. They have a very simple step-by-step system for setting up your website, submitting it to the search engine and getting traffic. Once you start making money with your first website setup another one.

Unfortunately there are thousands of scammy websites out there pitching some overnight success kit however behind the curtains all you will find is some schmuck selling some outdated money making strategy that no longer works. Have some common sense. In order to make money online you need have a website. Websites are what make up the entire internet so doesn’t it make sense that you’d have to have a website to make money online?

Also, websites are like virtual online real estate. If you own a website that is making any kind of passive money there are investors out there who will pay top dollar for it. When you consider how well the real estate market is doing, owning a few or even a couple hundred money making websites isn’t a bad idea. Some of the richest internet millionaires are less than 30 years old and they own hundreds of websites.

The bottom line: go to websites4income.com and have them build you a website and learn as much as you can about making money with it and then put up as many websites as you can. Hands down, owning a website is one of the best ways to make money online.

You see,  market research is a critical part of product and service development and without it big companies would likely fall flat on their face because they wouldn’t know what consumers wanted and their products probably wouldn’t sell. I remember as a youngster I got an invite in the mail from some big university to take a survey that they would mail out to me and in return they would pay me $100. I gladly accepted and it I did get paid.

Nowadays everything is online. It’s faster and easier to reach millions of people. I’m sure you’ve probably seen a few websites out there claiming you can make a fortune online taking surveys and for a one-time nominal fee of $40 you can get access to their huge database of surveys. Don’t be a sucker. With a little bit of “index finger grease” you can find these companies yourself online. Of course I’ve also provided some links below directly to some of the most popular market research companies who pay people in various ways to complete their surveys.

A couple tips if you’re considering taking some surveys for money:

• Register a separate email address just for your survey taking venture because nearly all of them require an email to sign up because that is how they send you the surveys.
• If you’re going to make a real go of this be sure to sign up for as many of the survey companies as you can because the more surveys you take, the more money you make.
• Go download a free trial of Roboform as it will help you tremendously in cutting down the time it takes you to fill out all the forms involved with taking surveys.

That’s about it. You can definitely make money online taking surveys but in order to make enough to cover say a car payment or a credit card bill you will need to hit it hard and make it a goal to join as many survey sites as you can. Here is a list with links to some of the best paying survey companies in the world. Enjoy

• Send Earnings
• Lightspeed Research Panel
• Global Test Market
• ECN Research
• Valued Opinions
• NPD Research
• Nielsen Net Panel
• Vindale Surveys
• Global Survey
• Consumer Opinion Panel

Yes, there really are companies and websites out there that will pay you to do these things. Your best bet is to pick one category that interests you and start looking for sites that will pay you. I’ve broken down the list above and included a few websites for each category. It’s as simple as joining the sites, following the steps and getting paid.

These are just a few resources for making money online for free. Take the list of “get paid to” categories above and use the search engines to see all of the websites available to you. You’d be surprised how many websites out there will pay you for doing simple mindless tasks. Remember, you wont get rich using these types of free websites but you can make some extra money. If you’re serious about making real money online you will need to spend some money.

For me,  it cost tens of thousands of dollars, time missed with my family, about 20lbs of added gelatinous mass and swarms of stress. No joke, learning how to make a reasonable income online especially if your starting today is difficult but no impossible. I would venture to say that if your willing to work as hard as you do at your job, you’d have what it takes to make very good money online…eventually.

Learning how to make money online takes time just like any other thing in life. If you want to lose 20lbs, there is no miracle pill or diet, it’s gonna take time and consistent hard work. I know this first hand because that’s exactly what I’m doing now that I’ve learned how to earn an income. Everything worth having or achieving in life has a cost.

Now to answer the question: No! You don’t have to buy everything you get pitched on but I do credit a part of my success on the courses and ebooks I’ve purchased in the past. The first program I ever purchased was one of those “get rich quick” type of programs and while most would write it off as a scam before ever purchasing it, that program is what ultimately ignited my passion for learning how to pull money out of this giant we call the internet.

There will never be that one “end-all-be-all” program that takes you from complete beginner to making 5 figures a month. It’s the little bits and pieces from each of them that will help you start making money online. For me, it took about 8 months before I started making any money at all and then once the momentum kicks in, game over! Was it all worth it? Absolutely!

Let me ask you this…If I told you that in 2 years from today you’ll have a 6 or even 7 figure yearly income from home and all you had to do was spend 8 months learning and $10,000, would you do it? Compared to the cost of a 4-year education and an average salary of $40,000/year for a college graduate, I would have spent $100,000 and 4 years to learn how to make money online.

If you’ve watched Mike’s promo video on the homepage he emphasizes that it perfectly OK and even GREAT that you don’t know anything about the CPA networks and he makes it sound like it’s so agonizingly difficult to get accepted into the CPA networks. He wants you to believe that you can’t make it in the CPA world unless you pay him $300 to start and up to $99 a month to promote the offers in “his network”. Should we have to pay to make money on CPA offers when we can easily get accepted into at least one of dozens of CPA networks? Hell no, what a joke! Also, you should know that Mike’s “CPA network” isn’t even a real affiliate network. All they are doing is letting you send traffic to the offers with their affiliate link using a subid and then paying you half of what they make. Note that you will only be paid every 30 days when they are likely getting weekly wires direct into their checking account. If you build a relationship with your account manager at an affiliate network and you start doing some sales they will gladly pay you weekly with direct deposits right into your account.

Let’s talk about the other poor elements of this system that you might not be able to resist. The websites! When I watched the promo video at Affiliate Jump I have to admit I liked the fact that I could generate landing pages on the fly but that was until I saw what the websites looked like. Terrible! I promote CPA offers with custom built sites and I can tell you first hand that these sites will perform poorly on the search engines and I don’t imagine very many people are going to trust a page like this. The site basically has 3 banners on it with less than 100 words of content and there aren’t any other pages on the site to increase quality score. Aside from the websites this is basically an under paying affiliate network that costs you money to use.You are better off saving your money, joining a free affiliate network and outsource someone to build you a beautiful landing page to promote your offers.

Just my 2 cents gang, I would be glad to answer any questions you have about CPA marketing and I will get some posts up for beginners that will show you how to painlessly get accepted into the CPA networks and how to start promoting offers. You don’t need to pay Mike Filsaime and Joe Holland hundreds of dollars each month to get paid half the money you can make at a regular, free to join CPA network!

I have some good news that I think you will be super excited about, especially if your in a cash crunch. There are actually a couple ways to generate spendable cash on demand and Paypal is key for this to work. If you don’t already have a business or verified Paypal account you will need one. It’s very easy to get one, just sign up for Paypal and follow the instructions for setting up a verified account. This may take a couple days to do especially if you sign-up for an account later in the week or on a weekend but once it’s setup you are set for life. Once you get your account verified you can apply for a Paypal debit card. This card is just like a credit card and any money you bring into your Paypal account becomes available instantly for purchases or withdrawal.  With me so far?

Ok, now the fun part! Getting money flowing into you’re Paypal account. Your probably thinking you need a product to sell or something but that’s not the case at all. There is a little know network of Paypal based affiliate programs where you can go sell other people’s products and get paid for your sales in real-time directly to your Paypal account. For a list of over 200 instant paypal affiliate commission products go to http://www.instantpaypalmoney.com.

Now another way for you to generate serious amounts of Paypal cash in a day is to sell WSO’s or Warrior Special Offers in the Warrior Forum. This forum has thousands of users online at any given time and if you create something cool to sell them for a discount then you will get hundreds of sales in a day. Don’t be stingy in this forum or they will eat you alive. Create a unique and valuable product and they will buy from you forever.

The thing that really pisses me off is if you sign-up for the advanced ready made campaigns they claim they are running you will lose a ton of money. They claim they are running all of these campaigns and profiting so I put it to the test and lost over $1,400 with the exact same keywords, ads and products they say they are promoting. One campaign I tested of “there’s” is an offer on the Copeac network called Foreclosure Coin. It pays $28 a lead and it shows people how to profit with foreclosures. I setup my MSN Adcenter account exactly like theirs and sent over 200 clicks and spent over $250. Guess how many sales I made….ZERO. Ok fair enough, so I moved on to one of their Myspace advertising campaigns promoting a Cell submit offer from Neverblue. Set it up the exact same way and spent over $50 in an hour with over 150 clicks and I bet you can guess how many sales I got again….Yep! ZERO! It’s funny to cause the clueless guy putting the video tutorials together was like “yeah, this is a super profitable campaign and it pays out 9 bucks and you only have to pay .32 a click so there is HUGE profit margins here”. I also tried another campaign of theirs for a credit report offer and I did make one sale which paid out like 26 bucks but I spent $300 to get it! Ridiculous!

Bottom line guys is this course is not worth the money you spend on it by any means and they rape you with upsells and downsells just to get in the members area. It literally took me 40 minutes from the time I purchased their first product to buy all the rest of their crap and to finally get into the members area. First they hit you with a $77 one-time fee and then they hit you with a $57 monthly fee and then a $197 fee and then another $50 or so fee so in all you can spend about $400 on this course. Save your money and start testing CPA offers on your own and you will probably learn more doing that then you will with this course. I’ve learned that unless someone is going to truly give you the exact keywords, campaigns and traffic sources they are using to make money you will waste money and time testing anyways. The guys at Zero Friction Marketing SAY they are giving you that but they aren’t. In one short sentences I will show you how to acheive the same results you will get with this course:  Ready? Ok, go pick ten random CPA offers and send related traffic to it and see if it converts. LOL
