Yes, It is a Scam.

Many people online are very much attracted to some sites, posts or blogs about making instant money online. But how can you make out which is legal and which is illegal.

Well I am not here to show you the ways to earn dollars but to help you to save some of your hard earned money.

The first thing you come across about making money online is by advertisments provided by companies like Google, Yahoo, Amazon etc. The most popular I think is Google adsense. When any one opt for joining adsense and trying to get some bucks making websites or blogs, most of them just fail the criterias laid by google or earn too little. Then there is a run to improve hits and earn more.

By google I came across many sites selling 'adsense ready websites' for little as $5-$20. By taking a look at thoes sites, I found their packages contained about 100s of different sites having 1000s of pages. But the first thing which struck me was why there was not a single adsense ad on these websites. Surely there must be something wrong. I decided to do some research on them and found that these sites were not only illegal but they can even get your current adsense or similar account to get blocked.

Here are some points to be noted.

1. If the person is making a lot of money then why is he/she selling it to you for so little.
2. There are many sites selling such adsense ready websites. So your purchased site will not be unique.
3. You will still have to have a domain name try hard to get visitors.
4. These sites are just a clone of some websites which host free articles with different categories.
5. Getting these clone websites will lead to article spamming which is illegal.
6. Some of them are copyright content for which you can even be Prosecuted by the Law.
7. Once you are banned you will not be able to join again and your site rating will fall rapidly.

Well, there can even be more serious harm it can do to you. So I suggest stay away from wasting your money and time on any short, easy, quick and readymade way to get rich.

I request all readers to help me to help others by sharing their views.
