There is a particular web site where I regularly place my free internet marketing articles to generate traffic to my blog. Quite often several so called internet marketing experts place articles shortly after one of mine has been posted talking about the impossibility of making any money online without spending lots of cash on advertising.
Recently one of these "experts" bluntly called some of the techniques that I was suggesting, "tools for beginners on the net."
No, I was not offended. All my life I've met dozens of "experts", not only on internet marketing, but on scores of other unrelated subjects. They have never intimidated me. More so because many times, I have seen many of them fail miserably when asked to put their theories into practice. And make no mistake about it, some of these folks who have failed the practical test have had a long string of degrees and fancy qualifications next to their names.
I'll tell you the sort of guys that get my attention. People who have earned lots of money doing what they are suggesting to others. Sadly these guys are very rare to meet. As soon as most people find a winning formula for success, they will tend to keep their mouths firmly shut. So most of the "experts" you will meet online especially the internet marketing ones, are simply peddling theories they have read about or learnt somewhere else.
You will not find theories or stuff that I read somewhere else in any of my internet marketing blogs (not here and certainly not at http://marketingurhomebiz.blogspot.com.) All the writing and advice I give is firmly based on experience, my own experience in internet marketing. That is not to say that I don't read. I read a lot and later in this article I quote from some reading I did recently in the New York Times.
So why do I reveal my very profitable internet marketing secrets?
I reveal my secrets because that is the only way to grow. And in a place as dynamic and fast-changing as the web, you can be sure that your secret will not remain a secret for long. So instead of clinging onto something that will not be mine for that long why not release it a little earlier and gain valuable publicity and image from it, to help me make even more money from my internet marketing?
