The vast majority of articles online are bogus but there are still truths within them. I am an internet marketer and I have found tons of success from applying the principles in many of the online courses and e-books I have read. While I would say the majority of the marketers out there with a product use black hat methods there are still some with relevant information. Joel Comm for one while his books are over priced they are still very useful. The rich jerk is another while he is an @#$! his information does work and has been proven time and time again. The biggest problem with people that buy ebooks is they buy the cheapest one they can find or rip it off illegally which means they aren't really taking it seriously. Then when anytime an e-book tells them that they need to spend a bit of money to make money they toss it in the trash. True business men know it take money to get things started there is no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Do not take this as a hit to you your information is definitely pertinent if you want to know the truth read the authors squeeze page then look up real reviews not reviews with affiliate links to the product because they will say anything to get you to use there link to buy the product because they get a cut. People make money every day online giving out very important information never dismiss all information take the good leave the bad. You will be successful if you have the knowledge to back yourself up.
