Identifying Web Scams

Programs like Scambuster and online searches should be used before you join up with any of them!

Some businesses like Virtual Assistants and Ghostwriters are valid and opportunistic positions that many can do with ease to make money. They are most likely not going to get you to become rich but they do give you an opportunity to work hard and earn your money.

There are many tools that you as a potential victim should take advantage of to prevent losing your money and time. The responsibility is all yours, if you do not use them then you give other the chance to take advantage of you.

Just like in the world, some of the opportunities online are set up to scam off of other people. A person who is out to scam will often make their business seem like it is the best opportunity of your life.

They will tell you everything that you want to hear. They will tell you that this job is going to make you tons of money with little or no effort. You just put into place whatever it is that they say to do and just walk away and the money will pour in. The problem with this is that in the real world you have to work to make money.

You get what you give in work, whatever it is that you are doing often requires long hours of work in order to get a large sum of money. Many of the positions that pay well also require a skill, and the majority of the positions that scammers online use do not require any specific skill.

All you have to do for most of them is just try to get others to join just as you are, and then you are scamming them and not even knowing it.

Did you catch my Tweet yesterday about things brewing in the WA Members Area?

Wealthy Affiliate Platinum coming.

Well I’m glad to say that there are more pieces to the puzzles of the evolution of the wealthy affiliate university. They are being unraveled from a string of clues being left in the WA Forums by Kyle and Carson.

I first got wind of what was happening a few days ago from my buddy kpfingaz…

The WA university has the well earned label of th #1 Internet marketing university and has alway’s pulled out the stops for the members.  The challenge for a training centre is to ensure that to catch the learning curve of all your trainees. And with that statement the wealthy affiliate is building a totally new “Smart System”.

WA Platinum is a smart system, it has a brain of its own. It knows what you want, what is the best way to teach it to you, and how to deliver it. When you’re learning about a specific topic you’ll know exactly which other training resources you should check out next. Not only that, you’ll know what others are learning from at that exact moment, what helped them, and what didn’t.

Kyle and Carson are totally serious about making sure all the WA members succeed… If you search any wealthy affiliate reviews you will see that one of the biggest assets that we have is the training center, that is now “going to the next level.” WA Members are in for a treat come September 2009 WA Platinum is coming to town..

As I find out more info I’ll fill you in!  Stay tuned…

#1 Internet Marketing University will just get better and better.

Des from 199Media, another  WA members area sent me the info even before I got round the email from Squidoo!

I haven’t been around for long enough to be ’slapped’ looks like we have a bit of shaping of our lenses to do.

9 Seems to be a magic number to avoid when it comes to links  pointing to a single affiliate site (NO over promotion) so check out your squids and make sure they don’t have more than 9 links pointing to any of you affiliate links.

There is going to be plenty of info on Squidoo anyway… If your a member of squidoo you will have an email in your inbox today. If not here are the changes in summary:

1. No Spam.

It’s simple: Squidoo Squidoo tance against spam. That’s staying the same, and to be real, getting even more strict. If you actively spam people with your Squidoo lenses (by email, in blog comments, by stalking and harassing people on Twitter, by tricking people with the content in your lenses, and more) The hand of squidoo will lock your entire account.

>2. No more X-rated or Porn lenses

If you read in between the lines I deduce that the X-rated lenses dont really contribute to the community or the image, thats my take. ” supporting X-rated pages no longer makes sense, and it invites more spam and empty traffic and wasted overhead than anything. Find out more about why we’re making this very hard decision, and what it means for your X-rated lenses.”

3. No Junk Topics from the “Squid Don’t” List

This scould be one to look out for … Lenses on free movie downloads. Toenail fungus cures. Lose belly fat now, promotions. Reverse Phone Lookup 4U. You know junk when you see it. And lots more examples.

Unforunately, topics like these are overwhelmingly conditioned and proven to attract spammers. Don’t bother with topics like these. There’s plenty of incredible stuff to write about and recommend online without having to go into squid war.

4. A new limit on overly promotional lenses

One for the Marketers, I say pay close attention to this! “Sales lenses far too often turn into junk lenses, as described by the relentless number of outbound links to the same exact domain. Being overly promotional rarely works. “Buy here buy here buy here!” never does.”

If you have more than 9 links to the SAME domain on a single lens, your lovely lens will get locked for review …Of course will still have domains that are whitelisted out of this (meaning, you can have as many outbound links to them as you like), more detail here as well as sites that are blacklisted (meaning, even a single link to that domain will get your lens locked).

What now? First, take a deep breath.

Squidoo won’t be starting these new policy changes until July 20, 2009 or later. So there is more than a month to review your lenses to make sure we’re all towing the line… and playing by the rules.
