I'm sorry if I'm digging up a past thread ... but this thread will be one that interests the most people.

IMO - we are all here for the same purpose. To learn, exchange and hopefully be able to put some cash into our pockets.

Looking back at my experiences, I would say, it takes an experience to tell if it works ... for me I have tried

(a) Affiliate program for supposingly a internet marketing "guru" -Cory Rudl ... Mmm didn't get me a single cent

(b) Affiliate program with another internet marketing "guru" - sent some 2500 visitors there ... not a single sale

(c) Went into domain reselling ... lost money here .. registered domains that were completely useless

(d) Now, I'm into registering domains that are least with Yahoo ... but I'm very sure ... I will lose money here as well ...

So where does all this lead me ? I'm been losing time, effort and money in every single one of them. Why do I bother to keep trying ? Simply because the knowledge gained, the know-how, the overall experience and the lessons learnt ... I get kicks out of these.

But, for those whom truely have made some money on the internet, my kudos to you. Would love to hear your side of the story and learn more from all this ....

BTW - I would agree with what has been said "You can't buy a foreign language domain with 1000 hits a day and expect to convert 1000 Chinese speaking visitors into purchasing American products written up in English."

I'm from Singapore ... and I don't think there are many Singaporeans on this board ... so maybe ... just maybe ... I could learn something with ALL this time, effort and money spent that could someday open up a niche market for me in Singapore ....

In the meantime, I guess its back to the keyboard again ... and hoping someone would show me how it should really be done.

"Making money from the Internet " - Hype, Reality or Simply ... MY BAD LUCK ! ......

God Bless everyone ...
