Preface

I am no website novice. I have spent a great deal of time developing various types of online sites doing various types of things. I can program and market. I still struggle in this business. I haven't quite cracked the code yet so I still purchase programs in an attempt to learn even more and possibly apply money making techniques to either increase website traffic or simply earn higher returns.

But, I always come across online money making scams. Many programs do well and provide a useful bit of knowledge or an online marketing tool. But many are simply scams tagged with "easy money making" or "traffic explosion". So, here is my latest online money making program review, "The Covert Code".

Additional Note

I will never reveal any proprietary information. If an online money making program has information that is unique and thus protected, I will not divulge any information. But, if the information is nothing more than regurgitated public domain stuff, you are on my hit list.

The Premise

Like most, the premise is simple, "use this simple code and watch your earnings skyrocket".  Also, the owner, "Mr. X", is incredibly wealthy and why wouldn't you listen to someone who is incredibly wealthy.  He tells you he has the simple secret to making money online, you'll make money fast and it's for real.  Well, that is the summary of the first 10 pages.

Provide Some Google Information

A tutorial on Google Adsense and Google Adwords is the next step.  No real groundbreaking or sneaky methods for making money online, just the same stuff Google puts out for free.

It starts to look like the many articles on making money online that you see everyday.  Now I begin to worry.

Then The "Code"

Well, in fairness to HubPages, I cannot simply give you the meat of the material.  But the trick is no trick at all.  There isn't any special code that you probably don't already use as part of your online business technique.  As a matter of fact, it was one of the first things I ever did for my first website that generated any traffic.

The rest of the book is dedicated to showing you how to sign up for the various "covert code" services that exist.  Thanks Mr. X, I wasn't sure how to fill out a form, now I'm rockin!

The Best Part

So of course, this requires traffic.  So how does this story end.  Mr. X points out that we need traffic now to make this work.  Have a nice day.

Really, that's it.  You tell me something I already know and then don't even give a single piece of information that I can use.  How about "money making jobs" now that I've wasted my time with you?

We are all searching for money making opportunities, real money making opportunities. Not sure this one fits the bill.
