Being a “newbie” and not knowing what to look at next was a real challenge. Even while I was working on eBay, I had started looking at other “income making opportunities” on the internet. I don’t even remember where I started, but I got on a few peoples email lists and started getting information from them.

It is a shame that I waited this long to get into the internet business. I have a computer background. I was a programmer and network administrator for 20 years. Along the way several years ago, I moved to a small town without many computer-related jobs. When the company I was working for sold out and downsized, the job I was working was done away with. I ended up in an unrelated field and other than messing around with personal computers (and solving all my family and friends PC problems) I pretty much stayed out of the computer field for several years.

During that time was when the internet started taking off. I should have been paying attention!!

Anyway…I started browsing the internet and getting on email lists and learning whatever I could learn. I would recommend the same to any other newcomers. Get on a few mailing lists and start learning what it is all about. I would probably recommend AGAINST buying ANY products that people are advertising to you for a while until you get familiar with the internet in general and have a better idea of which direction you would like to go (there are many).

To start off with you should take advantage of all the free information that is available on the internet and (eventually) on this web site. There is more that you can get for free than you can imagine and more than you could process if you aren’t careful.
