Moonlighting on the Internet

I ordered three books on building an internet business and this is the first one I read. I devoured it, marking it all up and now I'm going back through it, transfering key ideas and notes into a notebook that belongs to my NEW BUSINESS. Yanik's book gave me what I needed to conceive of three separate businesses. I intend to start with the affiliate model and work my way up, conserving cash. I recommend this book to my friends and anyone who wants a valuable leg up on getting their own internet business launched.

The book is full of great ideas on how to market and make money online. It gives some good examples of people who have been doing it for some time with success.
I think the ebay section wasn't that informative. It's almost the same info you can find online or on any message board about ebay.

I have a feeling there's a lot of "insider" marketing information the author didn't share. He might be keeping it for his higher priced information products, which is understood.

The people stories he brought were not technically detailed, not much "how to" of info, again, everybody wants to keep his "trade secrets" for himself. But they all give you good inspiration and belief that moonlighting could be your way out of your "9 to 5 till 65" job. Thanks Yanik for all the info, and I hope we can see a "deeper" version of the book in the future.

This book tells you virtually everything you need to know about the various ways that money can be made on the internet with all the sections written by experts who are already making money in the ways described.

Note that there is nothing in the book specifically related to making money from adult content on the net, for which I recommend you look elsewhere.

I have read many books on Internet Marketing and online business. This is one of the few that gives solid examples and helps lay the ground work to get you going.

I believe the bad reviews come from those who expected the book to come to life and do the work for them. If Yanik told you step by step exactly what to do then everyone who read this book would be doing the same thing and no one would make money.

I started using some of the techniques in this book even before I finished it and I am well on my way to making some extra income online.

Ok, so there is SOME good info in this book. But by and large it will not teach you how to set up your busines and/or website. It's more of a brag book. They author inserts many websites, most of which will profit him or his "colleagues" if you purchase from these sites. I thought of the book as more of an infomercial than a how-to while I was reading it. Filled with generalities that will drive you to search for more grass-roots instruction from other sources.
