If you’ve done any investigation at all of Web marketing, you’ll know rip-offs abound, no matter where you look. Unfortunately, Internet marketers with no morals take advantage of the multitudes of inexperienced people who are looking for financial freedom. It’s very sad, because millions probably get duped into spending money unnecessarily, only to chase down avenues with dead ends. Thankfully, methods abound for making money online without any up-front fees. This should be good news to those who have had run-ins with Web scheme run by scam artists!

But sometimes one person’s scam is another person’s opportunity. An example of this is the controversy over an online business opportunity named Site Build It. Some believe that one or more people have created a Site Build It review that was misleading. The owner has publicly defended himself and he might be right about his product being on the up-and-up. But it would be up to any potential buyer to do his or her own research.

One of the most successful ways I’ve found to make money online is totally above-board and is also relatively easy. I make money writing on HubPages. HubPages — a community blogging site — makes it easy to generate content-based ad revenue. You can create as many or as few content “hubs” (pages) as you like. Each hub you create can make up to five types of affiliate marketing revenue: eBay and Amazon products and services, Google AdSense and Kontera ads, and your own affiliate link(s). You get the revenue from 60% of the page views that generate income and HubPages gets the other forty percent. The exception to that would be if you implemented an affiliate program; One hundred percent of income generated by clicks from an affiliate link on a hub would belong to you. It takes a while to get good at writing solid hubs but the money you can generate over time makes it worth it.

One of the affiliate marketing programs I like to use on my hubs is RevResponse, because people who sign up get valuable free information. When people click on links to any of the RevResponse magazines or white papers and qualify, you get paid. It’s that simple. Qualifying is not a shoe-in though, so you have to understand that aspect. To get more details about the RevResponse rules, read this RevResponse marketing review. It will help you ascertain whether signing up is worth your time.
