It’s amazing how many sites are out there now with ‘Making Money Online’ tips, even some that don’t actually make money. Ditto with sites giving blogging tips. There are so many blogs about blogging, it’s becoming rare to find new blogs with any real substance.
I did however discover a new blog last night that I subscribed to instantly. W Revenue dot Com is only a few weeks old but nearly every post is a cracker; I think I’ve saved just about every other post for further reading. When you read the aptly titled post by the site owner Scott Wainner ‘Why Take My Advice, Anyway?‘ you will quickly realise why, as Scott is a guy who has been there and done it all and REALLY made (a lot of) money online:
- Started first site sysopt.com in 1994 whilst in High School and within 3 years was making $100,000/pa
- Started second site ResellerRatings.com in 1998. Sold both sites for several million dollars in 1999
- Bought sites back for ‘pennies’ after the dot.com crash and reversed the fortunes of the sites – now generating 7 figures annually
- Developed PhotoPost in 2001, and has since sold over 10K licences at £129 a pop
- Launched TechIMO.com in 2001 – 500k UVs pm, Dealitighted.com in 2006 – 100K UVs per month
When somebody like Scott shares his tips for making money online, only a fool wouldn’t pay attention. The site surprisingly only has 166 subscribers so far, but I’m sure that the number will rocket up very quickly.
