look who's back hahaha lmao

tldr

It's a fucking conspiracy:

Robby and Richie (M4B / L4C / C4S) both posting within the same 12 hours.

All we need now is Chronodevir / 604 to post about EDM and hitler.

You want to make money by duping people into clicking on YouTube videos which don't contain what the title says they contain?

You know you could also go out and sell drugs mixed with really cheap and toxic substances, right? Sure, some people will die, but not before you got your money.

You could send out emails based on the various nigerian scams. Some people make money doing this.

In the end, are you only after the money and who cares about the consequences to other people (some of whom will be your friends and family)? Then I'm sure you'll find a number of creative ways to get at their money. Some people like to break into houses and take the money/assets directly, sparing the person the effort of having to hand it over themselves.

There's another question you could ask. "How can I give to the world? How can I make it a better place?"

Maybe money will come from that thought. Maybe it won't. Maybe there are things which are more important than scamming companies who are looking to get meaningful data/feedback by providing them with junk data.

Let me ask you a simple question right. The post I made, was it entirely about unethical ways to generate income online?
No it wasn't. So why did you only respond to every negative aspect that I talked about? And not elaborate on any of the legitimate ways?

I clearly listed both ethical and nonethical ways to approach this. But when you read all that and all you really have to comment about is some ludicrous relationship between a drug dealer and a rick roll video FFS that to me just means you are one depressed loser.

Thanks for addressing every single negative thing you possibly could have, completely ignoring all the legitimate things I wrote, and trying to twist it to the point of murder, literally. Your are a moron.

This thread could have ended with a wealth of centered comments but thanks to your crack smoking hallucinations people will now get hung up on things like pedophilia, global warming, the economic crisis, and how it is all somehow tied to youtube video uploads.

Thanks for making the whole forum look 10 times dumber than they were before you posted that nonsense.

I could have came into this thread and wrote about some very nasty and unethical things that hundreds of thousands of people do everyday to make money on the internet, but I tried to present a clear 2 sided case and get basic opinions about each side, not paranoid manifestos.
And common sense should have really told you that there are wayyy worse things going on with youtube than rickrolls videos. So now that we've established you can make money either way. I'm assuming that noone on here has any blogs or has ever even tried PTC marketing campaigns? I mean I see tons of you guys with websites and tutorials trying to doctor things up as sexy as you possibly can, so I know some of you are advertising in one way or another.

Thats ALL I'm asking about. Is it really that hard to give balanced open minded answers?

edit: oh wait I get it its because I'm being too demanding for you in a somewhat off topic thread? And now you're panties are all in a fuss? Well no this isn't a marketing forum but lots of you have websites, youtube accounts, and things you do to increase exposure, if you really can't discuss and just wanna get angry cause its entertaining, trust me I'm game.

Boards are ruined and owners have had to spend money to block people from doing the crap you were referring to above. If I have to spread crap to make money, I'll go work on a farm.

Want to make good money online? Make/write/compose/etc a GOOD PRODUCT and sell it. That whole 'better mousetrap' thing works. The only thing the stuff you posted on does is clog the net, fill boards with off-topic garbage and PO a lot of people.

It DOES however work GREAT for destroying a reputation.

I've got a client that makes her money burely based on selling ads. She found a topic that was hardly covered in the dutch language and started a blog about it. It's mostly just google ads and seems to be working well for her.

I think you'd need a fresh approach towards some topic or find a niche and then it could srill be doable today.

Excellent that does it then!

I definitely don't want to fuck up my reputation cause I've seen it happen to plenty of other people online (like that cockhole selling "the method reports" on youtube who's already permabanned from craigslist and youtube has deleted like 70 of his acounts already). And he has a linkd in account associated to these other accounts, that he actually expects to get viable employment through, which if you look at any of his other accounts, is never happening.

And then on the other hand I see massive companies, some of which are known for some less than ethical practices, who have not suffered a single consequence from such actions. The internet is obviously unpredictable and hard to generalize for anyone.

Still, I'd rather invest my time in something people would genuinely love, and provide a quality service, than dupe them into any bs. So I'm gonna open up a blogger account, maybe a wordpress account too, a linkbucks account, youtube account, and I wanna get some type of site together too. Thats the end goal at least. I still need to figure out what I'm passionate about and actually capable of delivering. Music will definitely not be it. I tend to be an expert at other more controversial topics like relationships and dating, and my real education is in psychology. So I just need to make it different and appealing, and not just another worthless blog about things not to do on your first date.

I also have product ideas too like an electrical portable coffee cup that heats up from a rechargable battery on the bottom of the cup built into the vaccum chamber. I've seen companies release chemically charged coffee cups in the UK that turned out to be a disaster due to pressure build up/cups exploding. The product is in demand cause it sold, the technology just hasn't been sorted out yet.

Ok thats enough rambling TA... will take this to my blog now thanks for your thoughts **mods feel free to delete**

How legal is it to make tutorials on software?

Like if you got a series of video together on YouTube for a particular program (music, graphics, even office apps) and demonstrated how to do things from very beginners to fairly advance levels, would companies be pissed off?

I know video tutorials are everywhere, but most are by very sporadic, it's rare to see quality series.

I'm sure most of us could throw together tutorials on some things at least.

That's giving back and if you SEO/Keyword it right, etc link it to blogs and social networks, then surely you may start to see some return?

I've brought up my illness on here before, well to cut to the chase; i sit on my ass (admittedly because i can't do anything strenuous) month after month, in a flat that is heavily subsidised by the state. Through disability/unemployment benefits i probably have $900 pm after my bills are paid, of disposable income. The reason i bring this up is simple; easy money is just that EASY. I loathe receiving that money because it's not earnt & do voluntary work, when i can, to ease the burden on my conscience. Find something you love & it wont feel like work; that's the secret to a fulfilled life, not chasing an easy buck

Nobody wants to drink out of a fucking giant thermos at their desk, so some kind of cup that keeps shit warm is a decent idea.
