Day 4 - I spent the weekend doing some research on different methods of raising money online (I never said I would stick to just one way of making money!). So last year my pet rabbit shuffled off this mortal coil and joined the great warren in the sky, leaving me with a shed full (literally) of used rabbit paraphenalia so I have put that up for sale on a local auction site http://www.wightbay.com/
Then whilst doing some extensive reading I refound an article I had completely forgotten about that hints you can make money without the use of a website, list of customers or anything else! its called "Bum Marketing" (so easy even a bum could do it!) technically its known as article marketing (and if I fail to make money at it then I am stupider than a bum!...(note to self, if you fail to make money using this method then do not tell anyone!)). As the article says it doesn't cost any money to try so its a no brainer about giving it a go. I will let you know if anything happens, or any money comes in!
One thing I have noticed is that the people who really make money online, even out of the affiliate marketers, are the ones who have at least one product to sell. It stands to reason I guess, if you have 100 affiliates marketing your product and each of them only has one sale, you as the owner still have 100 sales. So I need to research a product that I can put together that other people will have a need of and other marketers will sell for me. (This task looks like a very long hill to climb and I am still standing at the bottom just admiring the view!)
However, other people have made money from the internet and there is no reason why I should not be able to do the same!

Day 2 - It's day 2 and I'm still signing up to social networking sites! I realised that to avoid breeching the terms and conditions of most of these sites I had to set up an independant blog that they could link to....this is the only way I can legaly place links to third party sites that may ask for details or may try to sell people products!
Lets be honest with each other, at some point, I'm going to need people to buy some stuff or join some sites via my links, to gain a small cash flow from my blog. Yes, I'm doing this to be informative and to keep a diary of what happens over the next five years but I'm also going to try to make a little extra from it if I can! (hence setting up AdSense on here!).
Anyway, as I said, still joining sites and researching methods. these first few weeks might be a lot like this depending on how much time I get to be online around work and home....I'm expecting a new member to join my family in late May early June, so things are likely to go haywire then!
Keep reading and commenting, and if any of those super guru's out there like Ewan Chia or Stone Evans or any of the others happen across this blog (yeah right!) then feel free to leave some ideas on how you may approach this task! lol

Internet Wealth Maker - The Experiment
The Expriment - To Attempt to earn enough money from the internet in 5 years to pay off my mortgage....Without investing any money that I don't earn from the experiment.
Day1 - So here we are at day one, I must be mad to even attempt this but hey ho you've got to start somwhere. So jobs for day one include: 1. Set up a google mail account for the experiment to recieve any queeries and spam.2. Set up a myspace account for the experiment to enable use of the Blog facility and give my friends access to it.3. Set up other social networking accounts for the same reasons listed above.4. Write first day blog entry for each experiment site and launch it so that people know we are live and the experiment is running! So, here we go! It is 16:45 on January the 15th 2009. I have no money in my accounts and I have until the same time and day in 2014 to try and raise £150000.I am not allowed to spend any money and may only use products that I already own or create. once I start making money I may reinvest that in marketing schemes, websites etc but until then I am on my own. If any other internet marketers want to leave comments, drop in any ideas (or just down right laugh at me ) feel free to post comments.I'll write more later, but that is it for day 1 (too many other things to do for now!)
