True, Adsense is everywhere on the web. Even bloggers post Adsense ads on their personal blogs. So what’s with this hype?

Many advertisers have started promoting their online businesses by listing with Google Adwords. Because internet users simply type in keywords on their browsers to search for a particular product or piece of information, Google has found a way to attract advertisers. By bidding on the keywords, advertisers can easily get a spot on the Google search results and get more sales and recognition.

Next Google Adsense was introduced and since then, ads are not only limited to search results. The ads can now be displayed on any website or blog giving the ads more exposure and reaching out to more people.

How does Adsense Advertising Work?

Adsense is also a type of pay-per-click advertising. An Adsense member is given the chance to earn money based on the clicks that the ads generated. The more people click on the ad links, the more money you earn.

The economy is bad and many people are out of work. Many of my neighbors know that I run a successful home business and have been beating a path to my door to show me business opportunities.

Many of these opportunities are MLM (network marketing) I have very limited experience with these programs and I advise them to use their best judgment when choosing a MLM. I have always felt that you need to be a really personable person to make MLM work for you. You need to be able to motive not just yourself, but a whole team of people that will be working under you. That to me seems to be the #1 reason people I know who have gotten into a MLM program either drop out or simply don’t make any money. Its hard enough to keep YOURSELF on track let alone a large group of people.

I have seen it done though. I had a friend named Renee who was in MLM all her life (she was in her late 50′s when we met). Renee had built huge downlines in her time, and had experienced the benefits of working with not just a great group of people but the financial benefits of having nearly 300 people working with her. Renee was incredibly organized, very personable, and w/ more than 30 years of being in different programs incredibly knowledgeable about understanding network marketing structures and payouts. Her main problem seemed to be that she would join programs that just didn’t last. After a year or 2 they would close abruptly.

I would ask her why not start off with companies that have a proven track record and the answer she gave me was that the income potential was 10x better getting in on a new program first, then joining an older program and being way down the list.

THAT’S why I never got involved with MLM. No matter how many times they tell you that you make money selling wonderful products, the bottom line always seems to be getting people signed up under you.

I did some research online for my neighbors and here are some tips I saw touted over and over on MLM sites.

  1. Avoid plans that seem to pay mostly for bringing new people into the fold. It could be an illegal pyramid scheme.
  2. Avoid programs that say you will make lots of money thru the expansion of your downline more so then having your current downline out selling product .. again this can be a sign of a pyramid scheme.
  3. avoid “Miracle” products. If there claims are just outrageous, do you want to be the one to sell someone sick with high blood pressure or some terrible health condition snake oil?
  4. Avoid programs that make you buy expensive inventory – while its a nice motivator that every 30 days you will have a new shipment of stuff to sell so you better not delay or your will find your garage full of product. It can get so expensive that people who haven’t quite hit their stride drop out just to get out of the auto ship.
  5. Try not to sign up the first night you hear about the program. Don’t buy into the HYPE! A good rule of thumb is to not take your credit card to these meetings. After the meeting, hit the internet and do your research.

    You will find good and bad reviews. You will have other distributors flashing huge checks and encouraging you, you will find disillusioned people who tried the program (or maybe brought and tried to return after the 30 day guarantee and are bitter over losing some money) that will scream scam. Its up to you to shift through it all and make a decision.

  6. Check with your local business organizations like the BBB and Chamber of Commerce. Some MLM’s are too small to show up in their records but its better to be safe and check things out thoroughly before committing your hard earned cash.
  7. If you are promised outrageous amounts of money in a short time remember the old saying, “Its simply too good to be true”.

If you have done your homework, don’t be afraid to move forward. If you put down the money to join the program, make sure you have a plan of action so that you can start building your business right away.
