This isn’t an Internet Marketing blog, but I am familiar with making money online myself and I know others that do as well. A few of the tools listed here like OpenX are designed for websites that make money through advertising.

There’s a dark side to the MMO niche. There are Internet Marketeers that prey on the dreams of people looking to make money online. People spend hundreds and sometimes thousands only to find out the secret of making money online is to sell crap to new people that don’t know any better.

One of those appears to be Site Build It. If you ever run across this “business opportunity” run, don’t walk. Don’t take my opinion on it, look at people I know that are sincere and honest in their teachings about making money online and telling the truth to people trying to make money online the right way. Vic at Bloggerunleashed has one of his famous post blasting Dr. Ken Evoy, Griz’s post about the Site Build it Scam at Make Money Online for Beginners and the post that started the firestorm Lissie’s Review of Site Build It, Steve’s Is Site Build It A Scam? post and another Site Build it Scam post from Jeremy.

If you’re ever looking at how to really make money online, look at those people above for the honest truth about making money online – It can be done and it takes a lot of work and most get rich quick schemes are the same as they are in real life, just scams.
