ABOUT WRITING UP -JJ's EMAILS HERE! (also at my blogcharm)

Submitted by bugsey on April 3, 2006 - 1:33pm.

I just got an invition that I include someone of my FRIEND's LIST here and I might Most people blog because they are writers, and it can be an "almost"-excessive passion to do so. My friend just started her blog and "auctioned" off her article like an optional "pay per read" at stormpay (which is an idea) because people do read and learn -and some are vastly entertained when browsing through another's blog. An example of such a blog which is pure entertainment is something like Believer's WritingUp.com blog which I LOVE.

I am including my FRIENDS who are quite good and entertaining too --

PODBLOGGING STUFF - or whatever that place is called is an extremely "VISIONARY" site because it goes beyond blogging and tickles it is the sort of blog that makes you THINK about "adding" sounds and your commentaries on your BLOG.

REV.CHEREE - who I will include on my friend's list and who started another visionary thingy like "auctioning your blog" if you are amused enough She makes sure you KNOW that her blog is fiction and that you pay your "auction" and get NOTHING but a few laughs.She declares she is not scamming you and I agree with her because she does SAY that she is sharing a FICTIONAL sob story, which to me is quite - HONEST!

Speaking of SCAMS, I feel obliged to write a thing or two about THE OTHER PLACE - yep I mean WRITINGUP because of the latest "talks" that that site scams their bloggers. I read EVERYTHING PEOPLE FELT ABOUT THIS and I PRUDENTLY decided to TAKE-OFF my ADSENSE PUBLISHER'S CODE becuase it would be foolhardy to lose the ZERO adsense credits I have had by placing MY CODE at WritungUp. I am not SURE if the admi of that place is a SCAM, and it is NONE OF MY BUSINESS, but I DO WANT TO protect my Publisher's ID ((sighs)). The latest in the BLOG rumor is that WritingUp had allegedly "used" some traffic ghnerating software and goodgle isn't happy about it Of course, there are OTHER charges (all of which we still have to confirm) but I WOULD still suggest that those who want to BLOG at WritingUp continue to do so, because MOST are not really after the MONEY - but rather more on the "comeraderie".

I put my Publisher's ID on THIS site which makes me pennies at least everyday. Some have "transferred" to ANOTHER PLACE which has the RIGHT template too and it would probably take weeks for that site -- okay, it's called the Blogger Party - to get as much traffic as WritingUp. Nevertheless, until then, I would rather place my publisher's ad here because it is best to LISTEN and be a lot more calculating than simply jumping fron one old bandwagon to another.

The advantage however of Blogger Party is the "interaction" plus the fact that the admi of that place does NOT promise you ANYTHING like 10,000 a month after some months of blogging. I have a "thing" about promises like this --- they stink. (Which is why at least, the FAKE Reverend Cheree will soon be on my freinds LIST. She directly says you do NOT get anything and she's a LOT better to my thinking than some "admi" who writes you inviting you to sign up and EARN 10,000 a month after months of blogging) I am discussing THIS because I THINK someone should POLICE these "blogs that pledge an income". After all, that is what THIS BLOG IS ALL ABOUT! That's WHY I have THIS blog HERE, because I am beginning to "listen", "investigate" and "share" with ALL of you

EXHIBIT A ----

A fortune *is* made every 1.2 seconds! How?

I don't know everything about it, but I would hope that I can share
with you some of the things I've learned about how to successfully
run a business from home.

First, let me start by telling you what I don't know:

1. I don't know how to be successful in network marketing
- Tried it 3 times, failed at each one.
2. I don't know how to run a retail store
- Never tried it and I hope to never do it. I do know they
require A LOT of time.
3. I don't know how to be successful working for someone else.
- I've done it two times. I was a terrible employee both
times. I just don't do well working for someone else.

So now that's out of the way, let me tell you what I do know:

1. The best way to run a home based business is online.
2. The best way to run a home based business is online.
3. The best way to run a home based business is online.

How do I know this?

Because I've done it! Because I'm *doing* it. Because I know
others who do the same thing. Because I've failed at other things.
Not that it's the *only* way to run a home business, but in my
opinion, and from my experience, the *best* business is on an
online business.

The biggest reason is because an online business is a passive
business. A website is one where you can set it up and let it run
itself. It's one where you don't have to face customers if you
don't want to and where you can still make money.
Heck, it's one where you can go on vacation and still make money.

And, what if I told you that ANYONE can do it.

* No programming required.
* No html knowledge required.
* No internet expertise required.

How is that possible?

Let me start by telling you a story:

I had just graduated from college with a degree in computer science
(blah). I was working my second 8-6 job and basically hating life.
I wasn't going anywhere, my income wasn't going up and I hadn't
gotten the raise they promised me.

I knew I needed to change something.

I also knew that I had a good web programming background so I thought

"Hey, I can put up a website and make money off it in my spare time."

So I got programming. Feverishly. I would get home at 6:30, eat
dinner, say hi to my wife and kid and then go to work again
programming. I would work until 10:30 or 11:00 and then go to bed
(I'm not one to stay up super late) and get up the next day and do
it all over again.

Saturdays were great because I got to work all day on programming.

And I did this for 5 months.

Did I succeed?

Sure. I made about $30. But I learned a lot.

The failure is still there, you can see it:
http://www.utahrealestatehelp.com
You can also see my next failure: http://www.icount.com

Why was I failing?

Because I didn't know *HOW* to run a successful business online.

I thought that if I just put up a website and got a few visitors to
the site I would make tons of money. Boy was I wrong. I didn't
know it at the time but I was making the same mistakes over and
over again.

That's when I decided to go and try to find someone who was already
successfully running a business online. I figured, "I'm a
programmer, I can copy what someone else has done and do it better."

Wrong again!

I tried that one: http://www.lowerthatprice.com

And failed.

At this point I didn't really know what to do. I had only failed
at stuff, I had spent TONS of time programming and had nothing to
show for it.

So this time I decided to find someone who had successfully run a
home business online and was willing to teach me. I stopped
programming and did nothing but research for 2 weeks. I learned
how to do research for hot markets online, I learned where to find
good products to sell, I learned a ton about business plans.

But the biggest lesson I learned was that *I DIDN'T NEED TO BE A
PROGRAMMER*.

After all the research, I finally figured out that the software I
needed to run a successful business online was already written.
And it was better than I could do. And it was FREE to use. Later
I learned that there was better software that did more and helped
me make more sales and it was CHEAP to use.

The rest is history. I successfully launched a few websites that
made me money.

I made $2500 my first month.
I made $2100 my second month.

After that, I continued learning and figured out how
to make the businesses grow. The income has gone up every month
since.

Now, I'm not saying you're going to have the same results as I did.
But I'm for sure saying it's possible.

Soooooo...to answer my question: How? How can YOU run a successful
business online?

Simple, use what other people have already done, and let them teach
you.

But you say:

"I don't know anything about internet technologies. I'm not a
programmer."

And I say:

"GREAT!"

You don't need to have any programming skills and need little to no
internet knowledge. In fact, sometimes I think my programming
background is a hinderance.

And you ask:

"Why do you want to share this with me?"

To which I say:

There are a few reasons:

1. I've been incredibly blessed and need to give something back.
2. I think that one of the best ways to help society is to help
people become financially stable. When people are financially
stable, the world becomes a different place.
3. I'm going to make a little money along the way (but not from you).

I don't have a program I'm going to try to sell you that I
developed. In fact, the only thing that's mine that I'll ever tell
you about is some software I give away for free.

You're also not going to compete with me. The internet is a big
place. The chances of you competing in my industry is pretty small.

What I will do however, is show you what I've learned. The stuff
I've shown lots of other people who are now running websites for
themselves, even though they had no idea how when they started.

Over the next few emails I'll show you:

* The software you can use to build your website that works and
is easy to use.
* How to sell anything under the sun online.
* How to do research on markets and industries that will be
profitable for you.
* Where to find the products to sell.
* How you can drop ship products and make a fortune.
* Where you can get more information and find more people who
are very willing to help you succeed.
* How you can make money online without even selling anything
(no products).
* How to market your website.
* How to convert visitors into buyers.
* And much, much more...

The best part is, I'll show you how to do every one of these things
super cheap or for free.

Now for the disclaimer. While I don't guarantee you'll make a
fortune, I do guarantee that if you follow the things I tell you,
you'll make money. You'll make enough money, in fact, to be able
to quit your job and work completely from home. You'll make
enough money that if you don't want to work, you won't have to.

Part Time.

Also, this is not a silver bullet solution. This takes some time
and work. But it's something you can totally do part time.

This is *NOT* a Get-Rich-Quick scheme. There is no such thing!

This is real information on how to set up online websites, how to
market them, and how to get people to buy.

Stay tuned.

Thanks,

John Jonas

EXHIBIT B - THE NEXT EMAIL YOU GET

What's the first thing you want in a business from home?

Potential?
No customers?
No phone calls?
Established system?
Mentoring from someone who has already done it?

Well, here goes. This one has ALL of those.

If you're interested, you'll find all of details below. But first,
I want to show you a screenshot of my earnings in September just to
show you that I know how to generate cash online. Check out this link:

http://www.writingup.com/files/Earnings-September-2005.jpg

I'm not trying to show off in anyway, or suggest that you will make this
much, but I can't think of any other way to prove to
you that I know what I'm doing and to gain your trust.

So let's get right into details. I'm going to explain exactly how
this system works and you can decide for yourself whether or not
it's right for you.

It's NOT right for everyone!

But before we begin, it's important that you know that this is not
a "get - rich - quick" scheme. That's not what I'm about.

Creating a stream of income online takes time and WORK.

In fact, any business venture that is worthwhile takes time and work.
There is no way around it. So if you don't have time to work at this,
then it probably isn't for you.

================
OK, here are the details:
================

I've just finished my new website: http://www.writingup.com. It's a
system that allows you to earn an income writing about what you know -
a hobby, a passion, your career, really anything you want.

Here's a breakdown of how it works.

You will sign up for an account on writingup.com, which will create
a "blog" (web log) for you.

You will write in that blog about whatever you want. Here's where
the
expert in you comes out.

Write about what you're good at. Write about whatever you know.
Just choose a topic that you're passionate about and share your
knowledge. I guarantee you that there is an audience out there
hungry to read your words.

Be controversial, be opinionated, share facts -- tell people what you
know. This is your chance to step up in life by sharing your knowledge
with the world.

My job is to market your blog. I will get it into search engines.
I'll do my best
to get it ranked highly. I will get visitors to your blog reading
what you write.

--------------------
How you earn
---------------------

I will put ads onto your blog. When someone comes to read your
blog, I will use my marketing knowledge to get them to click on the
ads.

When they click, we get paid. We split everything 50/50.

----------------------
This system rewards people who are RED HOT!
----------------------

Lukewarm doesn't cut it in this industry.

If you're going to succeed using this system, then you need to be
willing to write on a consistent basis. You don't necessarily need
to be a good writer, but you need to write something. It's not the
Pulitzer prize winning authors who are going to make the most using my
system - it's the people who are CONSISTENT and write to their
blogs at least 4-5 times a week who are going to see success.

I know that writing can be a tough process for some people (I'm one
of them). But I also know that the more you write, the easier it
becomes. Plus, the posts you make do not need to be long. One
post per day of 100-250 words is a great start and shouldn't take
much longer than 10-20 mins.

It's not necessary that you write every day, but in general the
more you write, the bigger your income.

---------------------
Why this works
---------------------

There are two reasons why this is going to work for you:

1. Because we are partners.

We both have a financial incentive to work hard on this. I only
create income when you do.
If you write a lot of content, then I have a lot of stuff to
market. If you don't, it will make it difficult to get visitors to
your site.

This is your chance to work WITH me. I know what I'm doing when
it comes to getting visitors to websites. It's my passion.

That link at the top of the email was part of my income in September
of last year.

I want you to know right away that you will NOT make that amount
doing this. The results you see are the combined earnings of
several of my businesses.

However, you CAN make a significant amount doing this.

If you use your skills, and I use mine, we have an UNBELIEVABLE
income stream machine in front of us.

2. Because it won't cost you anything to get started.

I don't know of any other opportunity where you can team up with
someone
who has already achieved online success and not have to pay a dime
for it. Partnerships with so-called Internet marketing "gurus" are
usually thousands of dollars. Whether you are successful or not,
they STILL profit.

This is why I wanted to create a system that ANYONE could try
with only one risk. You never pay a dime. All you do is write, so the only
risk is your time.

----------------------
Ok, Now GO!
----------------------

To get started, go to:

http://www.writingup.com

and read all the information in the FAQ on the left side. If you
have additional questions simply email me back.

-----------------
Finally...
----------------

If signing up for an account at writingup.com doesn't interest you,
I want to know why.
Please email me and let me know and I will do my best to come up
with a system that DOES work for you.

And if you really, really, really want to talk to me, email me and
I'll give
you my phone number so we can talk.

----------------------
Summary
----------------------

You CAN create passive income online, but you have to WORK.

==> http://www.writingup.com

1. Sign up for an account
2. Write in your "blog"
3. Earn a passive income
4. Enjoy life

Thanks, and I look forward to working with you!

Now, THERE's the fisrt TWO emails YOU get I am NOT SAYING that this guy is a SCAM because he may have had the best intentions and he does NOT in anyway say that you will GET THIS DEFINITE AMOUNT within a week or a month or anything. I would also NOT want to say that he is a "bad person" or a "liar" because he could hav his initial computations wrong (maybe a young guy who was too enthused that he expected too much?)

I have very mixed feelings about this guy because he "sounds" like a scammer BUT I THINK somebody better get the facts. Could be someone who didn't know what he's doing and miscalculated or charted the wrong "business projection". It happens ((sigh)).

Any comments? Would you please do COMMENT too HERE? -

For any MORE blog-news and blog-rumors and "issues" do email me -- THINK!
