Rare video footage of David Bowie's first televised appearance as glam alter ego Ziggy Stardust has been uncovered. The footage of Bowie's appearance in a forgotten premiere of ITV's Lift Off With Ayshea has been uncovered by archivists from a fan's home video recording, BBC reports. The footage could feature in BBC2's forthcoming documentary, David Bowie: Finding Fame. The footage was captured by a fan on a home video recorder but has degraded and must be slowly "baked" in an incubator to restore the footage. "For fans, it is something of a Holy Grail," Francis Whately, producer and director of David Bowie: Finding Fame, told the Radio Times. "It would fall apart if we played it, so it's had to be very carefully restored. It will be a real coup if it comes off." "The footage has only very recently been discovered," said a BBC spokeswoman. "We're hoping it will be ready in time to include in the film." Copyright(c) 2019 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «

I was thinking print because I understand that market much better, as I come from that world. Also, there is an immense amount of competition online, specifically regarding PPC. Finally, print offers something which PPC ads do not IMO, which is, when people see something in a newspaper or magazine, they give it more weight. They tend to put more trust into it. Even though they shouldn't, they assume because something is in print, it must be good and worthy. However…
If you are looking into the steady paycheck of customer service, this is a typical requirements list. Each company is different, so please refer to the individual listing for that company's requirements. *A desktop or laptop less than 3 years old*Minimum speed is 2GHz of processing *Windows operating system, usually Windows 7 or 8. The exception would be Mac-specific positions like Apple At-Home Advisors. *20 GB free hard disk space*2 GB of RAM (some companies require up to 8 GB RAM)*sound and video card*DSL, Fiber Optic or Cable internet
Equally, you can charge businesses to 'claim' their listing, a method used by many large directory sites like Google Business and Yelp. This involves companies paying to upgrade their listing and adding information such as their web address, social media links, images, and more. Other revenue streams include charging for ad space, adding affiliate links and even charging for services and products on your directory site.
The other option is that you create your own digital product and upload it to the platform of CB to sell. You can sell yourself and / or capture affiliates selling the product for you in exchange for a commission. Of course, this is a bit more complicated but you have complete control of your product. It should be a goal to go if you want to fully live the internet.
18. CraigsList – Some things don't ship very well. Other things may make you feel uncomfortable to sell to someone across the country. Anytime you're selling a large item or something you just don't want to ship, Craigslist is a great place to go. It's simple to list your item (again, take good pictures!). If you don't like the idea of putting your phone number out there, the interested individual can send you a message to your inbox without even getting your email address.
Really good article with some great tips. Affiliate marketing has the potential to earn lots of money and I'm hoping I can make it happen. I have tried the matched betting and it DEFINITELY works. The one thing I would say is that you need to check that any bets have been accepted by the bookmaker. I have had on occasion bets which look like they have been accepted but don't register in my account. Always go into your account and check outstanding bets or your bet history.
Finally, when looking around for the right personal finance software that meets your needs, make sure that you're comfortable with the program's interface. It shouldn't be expected that you recognize every single feature instantly, but if the features don't seem readable and manageable to you, then you're not as likely to use it and get the full benefits.
Domain name trading has been around for the last couple decades, and while most slam-dunk names have long been sold off, there's still plenty of others that you can get your hands on for relatively cheap and broker as a way to make money online. Before you dive in, however, beware that some experts doubt the long-term viability of this idea for making money online. However, there's always the change you might just land on a lucrative domain name for a future billion-dollar company. To get you started, here are some tips from GoDaddy, arguably the world's largest and most famous repository of domain names.
Clickbank, huh… now that's a name I haven't heard in a while! I remember messing around with them back in 2011 when I was a newbie. Never did make any money with them, haha, but I've seen plenty of people who have! I've just never been any good at pushing the weight loss stuff, which I'm pretty sure is where most people make their money with Clickbank.
Etsy is the most popular online marketplace for handmade goods and crafts. From bracelets to phone cases, rings, furniture, and more, Etsy is perfect for anyone who is creative and wants to sell their handmade creations. As long as you have the space, this can make for one of the best ways to make money online that can be started with a very limited investment. Consider these 5 steps to starting an Etsy store, from Handmadeology.
Rent out a parking spot. If you live in a busy or congested area and have parking to spare, you might be able to rent out your parking space for some quick cash when you're not using it. Simply advertise your open parking space online including details on the location, whether it's covered or uncovered, and your desired hourly, weekly, or monthly fee. If you want, you can even use a site like Just Park or download the Spot App to reach more potential customers.
I am absolutely new to the whole online marketing thing. I visited CB in 2012, then, it appeared overwhelming so I put it on the back burner. A week ago I revisited CB and ran two campaigns without a website nor blog . I went to Fiverr and had traffic directed to my CB ad. At this point, I'm just waiting to see if anything converts. I jumped in without knowing too much of what I was doing… I needed to take some type of action.
So, where are we supposed to turn to make money the legitimate way online? This isn't just about generating passive income; this is also about finding ways and means to create an active income through the conveniences afforded to us by the internet that will not only help us with our debt obligations, but also empower us to save, invest and get really rich in the future.
Yes, but you really need to dig. And I mean really dig deep. There is a lot of crap on Clickbank. In fact, lots of it is from several years ago, and there's no way to really tell when the product released, unless you look at the gravity of the product. Remember, "gravity" is a number that represents how many affiliates have made commissions lately. It's not a 1/1 ratio (they don't give the exact math), but the higher the better. I've seen high gravity being 50+ and low gravity as low as less than 10.
I'm just starting at Clickbank, so I'm a total newbie, but if I want to follow this strategy can I do it promoting just one product, for example, Category>Health & Fitness —> X product. Then, should i start a blog or something like that where i can talk about things related to the product subject? if so, do i have to start making entries about this recurrently? or I can opt for just making an article with a free ebook in exchange to user's e-mails and follow the process?
Video is growing like crazy. And more and more people are looking for professional help cutting their raw footage into viral-worthy content. If you have the right software and a bit of skill, you can easily make money online as a video editor. Check out these article of Fstoppers on how to become an online video editor and then look for relevant jobs on Mandy.com, Creative Cow Job Search, or ProductionHub.
Last but not least, you can also earn money online by building an online community, although the monetization strategies you can pursue will vary a lot depending on your goals. You can build a community with a blog, for example. You can also build an online forum and charge people for membership. You could even build up a Facebook group and use your influence there to sell and promote products.
Just talking about Wealthy Affiliate in particular, they charge a monthly fee because you get help every day you are a member. Building a business is a continual process. Their fee is $49/month. You'll also need a domain for $15/year. You have the option of paying for a keyword tool for $19/month. There are no other required fees or upsells. No expensive mentorships!
You could also opt to use existing websites for making money. These include both active income and passive income methods. For example, you could sell some used items or invest in creating some digital designs that then can be sold on merchandise. Again, devote a sizable portion of your time to passive income so that you can slowly build up earnings that will arrive on autopilot without any extra added effort.
Upwork: This website offers a great marketplace for selling just about any professional service. You don't need a merchant account, website of your own or anything else for that matter. All you need to do is be able to provide a high-quality service at a reasonable price. But be informed, you will have to compete with many others that are constantly bidding on open jobs.
Pretty Nice Article Gael. This is much better than playing the waiting game of 4-6 months for the site to rank in Google. Much faster to test the funnel right away with paid traffic and get leads in your funnel for future marketing as well. These funnels might take time to build initially but once set they are truly source of passive income unless offer is taken off.
MemberPress is a feature-rich plugin that will enable you to turn your WordPress blog into a fully functional membership site. Depending on how you want to run your membership site, you could have a mixture of free and premium membership plans. Premium plans could include no adverts, free downloads, access to extra content, membership forums, and much more. However, it is important to remember that if people are going to pay to view your content then it must be high quality. Otherwise, your members won't renew their subscriptions when the time comes.
It's sometimes hard to comprehend just how much people love t-shirts. And with the right niche, marketing, and tools, you can create an online t-shirt business that makes you extra money online while you sleep. (Even Bloomberg and Forbes feature stories from entrepreneurs who've done just that.) Services like TeeSpring make it easier than ever to create a t-shirt drop-shipping business where they handle the sales, printing, and shipping, and you're only responsible for design and marketing. For more tips, check out this simple guide to launching and marketing an online clothing store by my friends over at Selz.
29. Videos – This could be an entire section on it's own. Many people have made money by creating YouTube videos. Evan of EvanTube is a kid and he has made millions by creating reviews of products that other kids his age would use. It's not easy to get views into the millions, but once you do, you'll start seeing some cash come in. Many bloggers have completely turned to videos to get their point across by starting a video blog.
Last but not least, you can also earn money online by building an online community, although the monetization strategies you can pursue will vary a lot depending on your goals. You can build a community with a blog, for example. You can also build an online forum and charge people for membership. You could even build up a Facebook group and use your influence there to sell and promote products.
While Etsy is fantastic for handmade goods that you've already created, if you've got killer designs that would look good on phone cases, t-shirts, or even wall hangings, pillows, and duvets, you can sell them on Society6 without paying anything to start. Society6 lets artists upload their designs and create their own shops where they choose what products their designs can be used on. That means one design can be used to make a whole range of awesome products that are printed and shipped on demand whenever someone buys from you. With top creators making thousands every month just from selling their designs.
Keep in mind though, you don't need a website to do sponsored content since you can also get paid if you have a lot of social media followers. My wife has a pretty big Instagram following, and she gets all kinds of sponsorships. Not only does she get paid in cash, but we get a lot of free stuff, too. We've received free rugs, free lights, and free carpet cleaners. She only promotes things she loves though, so this strategy works really well for her.
Now next, you'll want to pick a WordPress theme from somewhere like ThemeForest, Elegant Themes or OptimizePress. This is the barebones design of your site, which you can then customize with your own branding, copy, and images. That being said, you don't want to cheap out. It costs less than $100 to buy a theme that will make your website look professional (and you can upgrade to a completely custom design once you get the business going).
Because of this drop in income, I have been forced to try out other methods and systems. recently I wrote a blog post promoting a clickbank product, then sent out a link to the blog post via email. Just cold – sent it out telling people to have a look at the post. I made over a hundred dollars from one email, in a single day. I have since been convinced that email really is the way forward. Imagine if I had spent the last year focused on collecting emails rather than getting adsense clicks!!!!
Next, you need to set up and build your YouTube channel. Your YouTube channel is your homebase for all your content. If you already have a Google account for Gmail or Google Drive, then you can use that to log-in to YouTube and start setting up your channel. Pick a username that works for you and is memorable (if you're using an existing Google account you'll have to edit your username in Google+).
Please note that some of the links below are affiliate links and at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission. Know that I only recommend products, tools and learning resources I've personally used and believe are genuinely helpful, not because of the small commissions I make if you decide to purchase them. Most of all, I would never advocate for buying something that you can't afford or that you're not yet ready to implement.
Long-tail keywords are search phrases, rather than one or two words. If you are planning to promote an online poker course for example, you might do some keyword research and decide that the term "online poker course" has too much competition from existing websites, but articles based on things like "When to push during a sit-n-go" don't have as much competition and may yield more traffic.
If you have graphic design skills then you could make money online by creating and selling your own design elements, like templates, fonts, graphics, and other assets. This is a great way to earn extra money and build up a portfolio of work, which could lead to you picking up freelance graphic design jobs. Websites like Envato Elements pay you a fee per element sold, which can become quite profitable if your work is popular.
This is something like Experts Exchange, except that it's more general in nature. As a professional in just about any field, you can offer your expertise on JustAnswer. They are looking for professionals in various fields who will provide answers to reader's questions. You can make money online by answering these questions and pointing people in the right direction to get the solutions that they need.
Find your niche partners, collaborators, and champions: As you're creating your course, look for notable people who are also creating content in the space. Look att how their businesses operate and incorporate that into your own plan. You can also reach out to any influencers and make them affiliates for your own course. This way, they'll be incentivized to share your content with their own audiences (which can be a major way to generate your first sales—it helps if you're using one of the best CRMs for small business—and start building your own community!)
If you have a knack for organization, you can make money online as a virtual assistant helping people to keep their days in order. A virtual assistant will do everyinthing from bookkeeping to research, database entry, booking travel, and managing email. It can also be an awesome way to rub shoulders with some very important people, build up your professional network, and of course grow another stream of income. You can find great gigs on UpWork, Fiverr, Indeed, and Remote.co.
If you're looking for inspiration, my friend Michelle Schroeder-Gardner of the website Making Sense of Sense has become the expert on all things affiliate marketing. Michelle earns more than $100,000 per month from her blog and the bulk of her income comes from affiliate sales. Michelle has had so much success with affiliate marketing that she even has her own course called Making Sense of Affiliate Marketing.
Yeah I have finally after a couple years decided to find a couple products and promote them. No sales! I'd love it if this worked but nothing so far. I have to give it more time. I am promoting on backpage. I go through the ads to see whats popular. One thing I've noticed on Backpage is that most of the people that are making money from the services or products they are offering post pretty often. They keep their ads alive. They know it's their money maker so they post a lot and they've found ways to keep their ads from getting flagged AND more importantly they've found ways to keep their competitors ads flagged and removed. So if I am going to get pretty serious about clickbank I'm running to Backpage and Craigslist which I've done and observe what's being posted all the time. It's basic but I've seen results with a couple other things I promoted. (My own services)
We'll go into more details regarding each step but let me give you a quick overview of each. The product/offer is the ClickBank product you'll be promoting. This might seem like it's simple enough but screwing up this step could potentially hinder you from earning a single cent because the other steps are built on top of it. Product research has its own separate section below.
Is there a product or service that you are particularly enthusiastic about? If you are, you may be able to develop a website that is built around selling it. You don't have to be the actual provider of the product or service either. There are many businesses that offer these products and will allow you to sell them on an affiliate basis. For example, you may be able to sell a product on your website for a commission of 20% or 30% of the sale price.
If you are more confident in your skills, you can also market directly to websites and blogs. You can contact the sites by email to market your services. That will also enable you to select the specific types of sites that you are more comfortable working with. Since there are literally thousands of websites and blogs on the web, the potential market is limitless.
If you are looking into the steady paycheck of customer service, this is a typical requirements list. Each company is different, so please refer to the individual listing for that company's requirements. *A desktop or laptop less than 3 years old*Minimum speed is 2GHz of processing *Windows operating system, usually Windows 7 or 8. The exception would be Mac-specific positions like Apple At-Home Advisors. *20 GB free hard disk space*2 GB of RAM (some companies require up to 8 GB RAM)*sound and video card*DSL, Fiber Optic or Cable internet
If you can find and restore items like furniture and appliances, you can make a substantial amount of money. You can acquire the items on Craigslist, or even at garage sales or estate sales, restore them, and then list them for sale on the site. You may also be able to market certain items on eBay, particularly if they are small, unusual, but high in price.
Choose the product to promote very carefully, visit the site that sells the product or service directly and how that site is presented. Is the design simple, persuasive and is the product high quality, priced reasonably and useful to the audience you are addressing? Is it in line with the right ethical and moral system you want to be associated with?
This is a VERY high quality course with an Instructor who really cares about his students. I learned so much in such a short amount of time and loved that KC covered all bases throughout this course!! I will be giving this oh-so-simple system a go tomorrow and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for an easy way to get in the affiliate game." – Jamie Briggs
If you are a creative type, then you could make money online by designing and selling crafty products on Etsy. Etsy sells a range of beautiful and original items from independent suppliers. Categories range from jewelry, clothes, and accessories, to art, collectibles, and vintage. So if you have some stunning crafty creations, Etsy is the perfect platform from which to sell from.
people who visited the site but did not opt in > you can use negative audiences for your ads with facebook ads, you just take visitors to the site and substract the people that visited the thank you page. For people who did not purchase, you simply can't with affiliate marketing unless the vendor adds a conversion pixel of yours on their thank you page.
Research individual companies in your desired niche: If possible, it's always better to become an affiliate directly with a company (if they have an internal affiliate program), as no one else will be dipping into your commission rate. This is the preferred route for most of the prominent affiliate marketers, including Pat Flynn. Unfortunately, it's also the most work, as you'll have to do the research yourself to see who offers programs (they're usually listed in the website footer).
nice article on clickbank i however make a lot more money with cb its not hard to make money if you choose a good product to promote i like to use blogger for my content make it look professional and dont try to over sell things add title, description & keyword meta tags and let google do the rest i also use facebook which has over 8 billion users 😉
A popup window will appear, where you will have to enter your Account Nick Name Or Username. Enter on "Create" button and on the next page you will get your affiliate code. You need to promote that code in order to earn commission. This code is only for the specific product and whenever someone use this code to buy the product, you get your commission.
21. Facebook – Facebook swap shops are great for selling things locally. It's like CraigsList, but a little easier. You simply search for swap shops in your area and ask to join the group. Once you're in, take a picture of the item, write a quick description with the price and post it. It doesn't get much easier than that. You can generally expect to get about what you would get at a yard sale, maybe a little more.
If you've got experience and expertise in a specific area of business, there are hundreds if not thousands of business owners who would love to jump on a phone call and pick your brain. This can be an easy way to make extra money online and to hone your skills to use in your consulting or freelance business. Sites like Clarity.fm let you create a profile where entrepreneurs and business owners can pre-pay to book a phone call with you for a set amount of time. Whether you're an expert in raising money for startups, building apps, or running a restaurant, you can make extra money selling a few minutes of your time to people in need.
High-ticket consulting or coaching: You could sell your own high-ticket consulting or coaching products from your website. You'll still need a website, merchant account, sales funnel, lead magnet and many other items. But you can easily earn a substantial amount of money from each individual customer, making it well worth the arduous setup required.
I start with topic for my website, then build my website and start writing content for it. Because I don't sell my own products, I already know that I'll be able to sell products from other people without an issue. What I do is called "affiliate marketing". Some people do like to research potential products to sell beforehand, but for myself, I'm mostly concerned with finding a topic I think is interesting, with maybe some traffic numbers research, and monetization comes afterward!
ClickBank's journey started when founders Tim and Eileen Barber observed that the rapid growth of the Internet was creating an explosion of websites and digital content. They recognized that the explosive growth of the Internet would make it increasingly difficult for consumers to be able to locate the products and services they needed online. Since those embryonic days, ClickBank has grown into a top 100 internet retailer and worldwide leader in digital ecommerce, processing over 30,000 digital sales each day, improving the lives of over 200 million customers and working with more than 6 million entrepreneurs in 190 countries around the globe.

@jeremiah Hi Jeremiah, I saw your comment on this page. Just as you,, I loved this content. It's very powerful and valuable for us to understand how things are easy, and to have a roadmap in what to do. I've always been an entrepreneur, since I started my labour career back in 1996. I've been involved in NM for almost 6 years now, and it's been a fulfilling adventure to me. I suffered a lot in the beginning, becauseI had no support and didn't know what to do with my choice, but when I've found my vision and purpose, everything became right on track and everything made total sense. .How is it going for you?
I thought the book was great. For the people that thought that it was for the camera. May god bless you. The book gives steps but you have to tailor it to yourself when implementing the steps. MLM is not a pyramid scheme, well most are not. How is damn near every job out there??? Store/ business owner -> manager -> assistant managers -> leads -> then all the low level pawns that make the big wig the money. Does the CEO show you how to do his job? If anything, this industry of NM helps you become a better you!
Once you are ready to buy leads, understanding which lead product is best for you is the next step. Are you interested in calling leads when their interest is at their highest? Then you will want to purchase Real time leads. Are you just getting started and want to get a lot of practice and build your list with a lesser investment? Then, the discounted, aged leads may be better. Test them out and see what works best for you.
TaskEasy connects property owners with lawn and homecare professionals. Tasks include lawn mowing, snow clearing, and putting up holiday lighting. Payments for work will be deposited directly into your business's account 3-5 days after the work is completed. Or, if you prefer a paper check, TaskEasy will mail that to you 10-14 business days after the task is done.
Influence – John C. Maxwell says that a leadership is influence, nothing more and nothing less. Everything rises and falls on leaderships, so it's an essential attribute for success. Influence is also used to effectively and persuasively communicate the virtues of a good product or service, and to get people to say YES! We also know that at sales.
A good network marketing company rewards leadership, just like any structured business. Most businesses have a pyramid structure where the people at the top, ie. CEOs, SVPs, VPs, are the highest paid people in the company. The unique opportunity you have with a Network Marketing business is that you START at the top of your business, and your income will be dependent on how large of a team you build "below" you.
This is my go-to checklist that I've been using before, during and after my FB Live broadcasts that have gotten me tens of thousands on eyeballs on my products and services! It's no secret that doing FB Lives can bring you a lot of exposure and business, but sometimes it can be exhausting and intimidating to know if you're doing them right to get people to actually take the next step with you…
Biz Opp Leads are leads that we have captured when people fill out a form through a number of home business lead websites. This means that these are people who are interested in learning about any and all new business opportunities that are available, which is exactly what you're looking for, right? Every new lead that signs up has agreed to provide their name, email address, physical address, and phone number. It simply doesn't get any easier than this, so what are you waiting for? Call us right now so you can start making the contacts you need for success.
Your very own leads administration panel, so that you can access your mlm leads online from any location, any time. You have the ability to pause your mlm leads, set a max leads per day and adjust later if you wish, update billing information, order more mlm leads, export leads to your computer via csv or excel, and much more. You may also check out our business resources page.
Use social media. Posts asking people to join your team won't likely produce results, but if you're clever, you can use social media to generate interest in your business and possible leads. For example, if you sell weight-loss products, you can promote before and after pictures on Pinterest or Instagram. If you sell makeup, you can post tutorials on YouTube that you share across social sites.

Instructors can create and design their own courses and join 16,000 other instructors in this vibrant online educational community. No teaching experience is required, and instructors make an average of $7,000/course. Keep 100% of the revenue when you promote your course and 50% when Udemy promotes it.
You may or may not know, but it is against Facebook's Terms and Conditions to promote any business on your personal profile. A lot of people don't know that, but having a Fan Page gives you instant credibility and authority with your market and more people will take you seriously about your business. If you don't have a Facebook Fan Page yet make sure to check out my training below in the resources section called Unlimited Fan Page Profits.
Build an email list. There is a system for working with leads. The first step is getting them to be aware of and take an interest in what you have—by visiting your website, for example. The next best step is to ask your leads to sign up for your email list. You can get them to sign up by offering something for free, such as a report or something useful, from your website. For instance, if you're selling wellness products, then you might offer a guide to good-for-you ingredients or recipes. This will allow you to communicate with your prospects and provide valuable information related to your business and the general field that it's in, such as special sales, events, news, and research—and stay top-of-mind to your past, current, and possible future customers. Just be sure that you're following the laws and regulations regarding email marketing.
Although you can generate business leads yourself by advertising or organizing promotional events, buying your leads is actually going to be the most cost-effective method. In fact, we put a lot of effort into keeping our costs as low as possible so we can pass these savings on to you. Essentially, we go above and beyond what we need to do so you, our customer, is happy. If you have any questions about our high-quality leads, be sure to contact us now so we can help you. The sooner you get started, the sooner you can start making more money for your business! And isn't that what it's all about?

TLDR; I'm a digital nomad who's achieved the 4-Hour Workweek. I've lived across Thailand for the last two years. And in this post I'll share:
How to become a digital nomad.
Advice on freelancing.
How to excel as a freelancer.
How to make websites without coding.
And much, more more.
And just to be transparent, affiliate links are used in this post. So if that bothers you for whatever reason, navigate to external websites manually.
If you're looking to become a digital nomad, then surely you already love to travel. What you need to focus on is seeking a job that can be performed from anywhere. You're most likely to find such a job on the internet.
You want a job that can be done from anywhere, and the digital world, like the real one, has many fields of work.
Let me list some potential moneymakers:
App maker
Affiliate marketer
Drop shipper
Twitch videogame streamer
YouTube video maker
Someone who manufactures and sells their own product
Amazon author
and among many other options...
Since elementary school I was heavy into computers and video games. I was the kind of kid who would come home every day and spend hours at a time on the internet.
But other than a basic programming class in 10th grade and a MS Office class in university, I had no more of a formal tech education than the average kid of modern generations.
In 2008 I graduated with a degree in history. I didn't exactly choose a moneymaker of a major, or so you'd think, but it would prove useful for a career in freelancing (back to that later).
Like many recent graduates I faced unemployment and the prospect of working minimum wage (which I did for about four years).
For that last year, though, my friend got me a job managing a local store's e-commerce website. In that year I learned the basics of how to operate a CMS (content management system, like WordPress) and of Photoshop.
In those years following graduation I wasn't happy with the direction in which I was heading.
I needed to break away and go on an adventure.
I decided to go on an adventure across Asia:
A month in India practicing yoga.
Two months in Thailand teaching English.
And two months in China learning Shaolin kung fu.
A lesson learned as a backpacker
Like countless other backpackers, the trip was an illuminating experience.
It taught me what I wanted in life, but I found myself no closer to knowing how to achieve it. So I came back home and got a job as a waiter.
Whether it's as a waiter or a bartender. Whether it's a high-paying or minimum wage job, secure a steady source of income.
(More money-talk coming soon.)
This means choosing a location independent career that will suit you. Start working on or towards that career in your free time (as soon as possible).
Allow me to suggest a route to becoming a location independent digital nomad: FREElancing.
Freelancing has to be one of the most accessible and broadest fields of online work. There are downsides to it like everything, but it's also one of the quickest ways to make location independent money.
What is freelancing?
Simply a different method of getting hired. Instead of part-time or full-time work, it's work on a per project basis. Freelancing is bad in terms of relying on consistent pay. And it is good for those opposed to commitment. Potential jobs can be found in all of these fields according to Upwork.
Elance, which has become Upwork, was where I began freelancing. In my first week I won a simply job. All I had to do was perform a face swap on some family photos. For less than an hour's work I made $15 or $25.
The next week I won a $1200 job. An agency in Argentina hired me to build their website.
I did that without even knowing how to code. Nowadays you don't need to know programming to make a website. I'll get into that later.
After these two jobs I went on to have a successful freelancing career, going through highs and lows that can be expected with freelancing.
When I was born.
Where I was born.
My education.
I was born in the personal computer and internet generation. This means I'm better with computers than the average member of older generations (a large group that hires freelancers). And it makes it easier for me to learn new computer skills.
Being born in America made me a native English speaker, which provides a big advantage over foreign competitors. And having grown up in America it allowed me to know the type of customer service those hiring me (other Westerners) would expect.
My education was important because it gave me skills people would pay for. Learning history taught me how to write, how to do research and how to be organized. My previously mentioned computer job provided me with an education too. Because of it I'm comfortable with using Photoshop and content management systems (which would be very useful when learning WordPress).
Go to Upwork.com, browse their job categories and job boards and see where you will fit in.
Lynda.com is home to amazing tutorials that teach work and computer skills . Seriously, the teachers over there are awesome. The site even has career tracks, which are essentially playlists of tutorials. These career tracks will fulfill the skills needed to work in various positions.
You may actually have free access to Lynda through your university. If not, you can grab a free 10 day trial here. See if it will help you.
Monthly plans start at $25 (I pay $37.50 for premium membership, which comes with exercise files).
I cannot speak highly enough of Lynda.com, but they're not the only option for learning. YouTube has so many great, free tutorials. And I've heard Code Academy is the place to go to learn how to, you guessed it, code.
By this time in the guide you should already have a steady source of income and the path to location independence. What you need to do now is get your money right.
What to do:
Get health insurance if you don't have it (my fellow Americans) because medical bills are the number one cause of bankruptcy in America.
Work on eliminating or managing any debt you have.
Build an emergency fund, which you can define as X months of savings in case the world decides to fuck you in the ass. r/personalfinance is a helpful community.
Before you can become a digital nomad you have to finish getting your money right.
Ask yourself this:
Is your location independent work paying enough to sustain a monthly travel budget?
The decision is up to you, but practice patience. I'd suggest waiting to pull the trigger on traveling if going prematurely would put you in a precarious position. And no one wants to find themselves in a precarious position after coming prematurely. (clears throat)
Once you are confident in your finances, start planning your trip or your move. My only tip here would be to make sure you have the ability to work where you go (I'm mainly referring to good Internet).
*Nomadlist is supposedly a useful resource for nomads looking to research destinations.
Other travel sites and resources I recommend are:
But we're not done. Since this is the astabooty method I need to keep on teaching. Keep reading to learn:
How to excel as a freelancer
How to transition from being a freelancer to having your own agency
How to make great websites
And more.
Let's make it clear, as a freelancer you are not just a designer, business analyst, writer or what have you. As a freelancer, you are also a business person.
And as a freelancer it can be argued that your most important task is to win jobs.
Once a job is won, your interactions with the customer are as important as the actual work you provide. It can also be argued that the human element of your project is more important in terms of getting repeat customers than the technical elements.
Long story short, put yourselves in the shoes of your (potential) customers and think about how you can serve them well.
TIP: Your success as a freelancer is dependent on your profile and review scores. If you provide a good service/product and good customer service, you will do well (YOU MUST DEMONSTRATE THE QUALITY OF YOUR WORK WITH A PORTFOLIO).
You'll be able to make more money as you become more efficient, which will come with experience.
Also with experience, you will come to know what types of jobs and clients pay more.
Knowledge is power. You can make yourself more valuable by:
i. Learning how to market yourself better.
ii. Learning new technical skills:
----a) For instance, most college students/graduates have the ability to write research papers. This is a skill that translates well to working online (getting hired to write blog articles or other written content). That's a useful skill, as it can translate to $.10-$.15 / word at minimum. This skill can be built upon and made more valuable by learning the basics of:
--------SEO (onsite search engine optimization, in this specific case for writers).
--------email marketing.
--------press releases.
--------sales copy (basically, the text you see in a print or image ad).
----b) With just a couple of weeks of learning (on Lynda or elsewhere), a good writer could become a competent (and more valuable) internet marketer. These people could also make such transformations:
--------business and accounting students/graduates.
--------software programmers.
--------web designers.
--------graphic artists.
--------video makers.
--------sound engineers.
--------and I bet many others that I cannot think of.
Upwork.com has a pretty shitty reputation. Many freelancers believe customers there are cheap and unpleasant to work with. Freelancers also criticize Upwork for taking a large cut out of their earnings. So why do I recommend Upwork?
There is money to be made there because there are good clients. The filtering tool (when browsing through job postings) is your friend. Learned, use it, find good paying jobs. Good luck.
I think of Upwork.com as a lower-level league like as seen in professional soccer. It is a great learning ground where you can develop your skills - skills that translate very well in other arenas. When you're ready to venture outside of Upwork, you'll be prepared to actively seek clients online and in the real world.
My first two jobs as a freelancer were a face swap using Photoshop and making a website with WordPress (this I'll teach you soon). Back then I was chasing any job that I was capable of doing. Since the portfolio and a five star review score are so important to getting hired, I would offer extremely discounted prices to potential customers. This is something I did until I had built up a decent portfolio and review score.
By that time I wanted to make more money. I saw that website projects were bringing in more money for me than graphic design ones, so I decided to focus my attention there.
At the time I could already make a visually appealing website using WordPress themes and stock photos, but I still had lots to learn.
On Lynda I took courses on typography (learning how to choose the right fonts and text styling on websites and in graphics), content writing and SEO fundamentals. These were skills that made me a more valuable employee for clients.
What I'm about to say may seem to conflict with what was just said, but bear with me.
Even as my skills continued to improve as a web designer, I felt like I was trying to play catch up against other freelancers, many of which would work for lower prices.
I could have continued on the path I was on, but I decided to pivot and go in a different direction.
In a moment of self-awareness I realized that however good I was, there were better and cheaper web designers out there. But I still believed I held an advantage over them when it came to winning jobs and providing good customer service.
So what did I do?
I decided to start getting freelancers to work on the projects I had won. My client would pay me X and I would pay a % of that to the freelancer.
That means that after the job was won, I'd act as a project manager.
During this period of my career provided me with many obstacles, beecause it was during this time that I was learning how to act as a manager.
So yes, there were difficulties, but they were worth it. By taking on this new role and acting as an agency, I was allowed to scale my business by being able to take on more work.
To be frank, I've learned that I'm not a very good manager. At least not a good micro-manager, which is needed more times than not with the freelancers I've hired.
I've only had two successful hires, but they were life-changing. The reason these hires worked is because I was lucky enough to hire two very proud and self-sufficient people - the type of people who can take direction and run with it independently.
So with that out of the way I'll share more of the story and offer some advice.
When I started hiring freelancers, I was only working with two types of professionals: graphic artists and web developers. The professionals I was hiring were South Asians (Pakistanis, Indians and Sri Lankans) hired off of Elance.
NOTE: To hire Indians are not?
India has a somewhat deserved bad reputation with outsourcing. This bad reputation usually comes from issues with communication and customer service standards.
There are a lot of shit Indian freelancers out there. But that's because there are a lot of Indians . It's just a numbers thing. On the other end of the spectrum, India has amazing agencies and individuals available for bargain prices. It's up to you to decide if you want to a) bridge the cultural divide and b) sift through the bulk to find the gold.
TIP: A great, cheap country to hire from.
The Philippines! Native English speakers in many cases and great non-native speakers in other cases. Super affordable prices: 3 to 6 dollars an hour for a well trained professional. Talented and warmhearted people. Onlinejobs.ph is the best Filipino job board I know of.
TIP: Negotiating prices with foreign workers.
The best way I know how to negotiate when hiring is to:
Gain knowledge of prices by shopping around and
Have candidates compete against one another on their prices.
I believe in finding a balance, though. Negotiating prices with a foreigner is a mental battle of sorts:
Will we set the price at my country's standard, yours or somewhere in between?
I think a fair standard is starting right in the middle and then moving either way within 20 percentage points. This way it is not too extreme in either direction.
A client hired me to not only build them six new websites, but to write content for them as well. Because it was an important job, I did all the work myself. And luckily, the client proceeded to hire me for a long-term position.
This goes to show the value of writing in the world of freelancing.
The job was to build and maintain a blog – I'd have to produce fresh content every week. The pay was great, but the project ate up much of my time (I was not yet outsourcing any work on this project). Like most digital nomads, I cherish free time, so the work situation wasn't ideal for me.
Freelance college students
What I did to resolve this issue was post a writing job on the University of Florida job board. The candidates who responded were good writers and really affordable. I hired a handful of them, until one rose to the top and replaced all the others. That writer is Ashley Lombardo, who I have since traveled the world with (this trip is what became the G&L 2016 Summer Tour of Asia - more on that later).
Not only did Ashley take over all writing duties, but in exchange for a raise I trained her to run the site by herself. It was this move that moved me closer to achieving The 4 Hour Workweek.
I was still living in Florida at the time. And I not traveled "big" in years. As usual, I was looking for bigger and better things for my business. I had a big idea to source top quality, affordable talent from India. This would again allow me to take on more work.
It was time to go on an adventure.
Starting in January of 2015 I spent six weeks in India. Instead of making a number of superficial networking connections, I cultivated a strong business bond with just one individual. While this was not the original plan of the trip, this connection later proved to be another life changer.
During those six weeks, I had been speaking quite frequently on Facebook to a young lady from Thailand. We became very interested in each other over this time. So much so that soon enough I suggested the idea of me flying over to go on a date. She was receptive to the idea and told me to come on over. She and I dated for only a short time, but that is how I moved to Thailand.
Let's now jump to the year 2016. By this time in my business career I had committed myself to one client. For $1200 a week I had location independence, consistent work and flexible hours. What I did not have too much of was free time.
As you could guess, that was something I wanted to change.
As an aside, this job was a Facebook moderation position offered by a former client. The the job essentially was for lead follow-up sales (interacting directly with people who commented on my client's Facebook ads). I bring this up only to illustrate a point to you that jobs can evolve organically over time as a freelancer.
Back to the story, the only person I could trust to help with this job was my connect back in India. I offered them the job and a doubling of their salary, which was 25% of my salary.
That was done in mid-2016. Since then I've achieved The 4 Hour Workweek. Sitting around would be boring, though, so I've been working my ass off on something new.
What have I been doing?
What I'm about to do is give a complete dissection of what I've been working on: Graduate & Live, a travel blog that promotes location independence. This will hopefully give you insight into making G&L and launching a business.
But before that, let me catch you up in the story.
In late 2015, Ashley was finishing her last year of college. You remember her, right?
(The freelance writer running a website for me). I'll come back to her in a moment, but first back to me.
I had an idea to create a guide to freelancing.
To be frank, even today I'll admit I was not an expert freelancer. But what I did have then, as I do now, was the ability to share years of experience in a simple fashion. So I wrote the guide. And with the editing help of Ashley, it became a really useful resource. This was the product creation phase of what is now Graduate & Live.
But who the fuck was I and why would anyone care what I have to say about freelancing?
I'd need to develop a brand.
Years ago there was a TED Talks presentation discussing Apple's marketing strategy. My mom shared the link with me. The point I took away from the video was this:
Apple would market the feeling their product would give to the customer.
Apple's ads were artistic, fun and stylish. In their iconic iPod commercials we remember colorful people dancing, white earbuds dangling from their head and good music being supplied by the iPod. What we do not remember is Apple discussing technical specs of the iPod's hard disk or anything like that. That's because Apple didn't discuss that in their ads.
This whole lesson taught me not to be like so many other digital nomads. Most competitors in this niche can't articulate anything besides the benefit of location independence and how to achieve it.
All they really talk about is work, work, work. And who wants to listen to that? Sure, it can be exciting at first, but it gets boring quickly.
People become digital nomads not because they want to work, but because they want to travel and experience life.
Ashley and I discussed this and created Graduate & Live together. Following her graduation we would go on the G&L 2016 Summer Tour of Asia - experiencing culture throughout India, Thailand and Vietnam.
The goal was to create a travel blog that illustrated the experiences that could be had thanks to location independence, opposed to simply talking about the freedom of working online.
One quick little side note:
Before graduating, I helped Ashley secure a job with the client I had her working for. It was a full-time, location independent position. After our trip was over she would go on to work for them.
Back to business… I had already created a product, a brand name and an idea for a website. Next I…
I envisioned who the customer would be for both the freelancing guide and the website.
Reminded by the saying that "if everyone's your customer, then no one is," I decided to focus on a niche or two:
Backpackers, who would like perpetual travel and
College students and graduates in need of work.
By April 2016, I had a product (The Modern Guide to Freelancing) and a brand (Graduate & Live), a website (graduateandlive.com) and an itinerary for travel.
From May to July of 2016, Ashley, my girlfriend (Aom) and I traveled. We had a great time that I highly recommend you read about later (bookmark this link so you can read it later).
Ashley took charge of creating content for the website. And I handled freelance work in order to fund the trip for the three of us (this was just before the Indian connect started working for me).
After two months of travel, Ashley had built an extensive travel journal and had taken a boatload of great pictures. Her journal and photos would go on to be the brand's centerpiece for launch.
But before launching I'd have to develop the website and create a marketing plan.
Check out the website so you can see what I'm talking about.
It takes skill to make good food, but anyone can cook.
Nowadays the same is true for webpage creation. Knowing how to code provides more freedom in building a website, but I've gotten by without knowing how to do it. And so could you.
Why anybody can build a website
Programmers have developed DIY website creators for normal people. Speaking in terms of difficulty, I'd say anyone who can use Microsoft Word can make their own website.
There are actual website creators like Wix, Squarespace and many others. There's also what I use, premium WordPress themes.
To explain quickly:
WordPress is a website/blogging manager. At a click of a button or three you can add pages, images and all sorts of content to your website. WordPress is not exactly a self-explanatory software, but neither is Microsoft Word. It is, however, easy to get the grasp of, also like Word.
Website developers make WordPress themes, which are essentially website designs that overlay the WordPress software. Premium themes exist that come with a bunch of features, easy control and beautiful, niche specific designs (like for a restaurant, spa, or a gym website). The theme that G&L was built upon cost only $59 (a one-time fee). The theme, called BeTheme, is the best one I've ever used.
TIP: Bookmark themeforest.net
That site and the whole Envato marketplace (which ThemeForest is a part of) just may change your work life.
As I've done and as many others can, you could go ahead and buy a theme, follow the instructions it comes with and make a website. It takes time to get accustomed to, but it's not that hard.
Now, the above will give you a website, but will it give you a good one?
Let the learning begin because I'm about to drop some knowledge!
Why do you or your client want a website?
Every website should have a number one goal, i.e. get people to call the store, to make sales, to promote a video, to campaign for cause, etc. Until this question is answered, a website should not be worked on.
A website needs to talk to the visitor.
To say that in a less douchey way, you need to think of the website and its content as a form of communication.
----What is it that you want to say to the visitor?
----What messages should be prioritized?
----Is there an obvious organization that can be used to group these messages together? Think of this as the site map. What would be found in the site's navigation menu?
----Remember you can communicate with words (text and audio) and visuals (site design, pictures/graphics and videos).
----Think about what you want to say and say what you mean.
Where to find good content.
Just like website themes can be bought, so can stock pictures, video and audio. These can help you if you need content for a website.
First impression: the landing screen.
Going back to #2, what is the number one message you want to communicate?
The very first time someone goes to your website you only have a few seconds to convince them to stay.
Quality control
----Go over your website in waves to find improvements and errors.
----Try getting a second pair of eyes to overlook everything. You can get a free 5-minute video review of your website at peek.usertesting.com.
----You can also check how your website will look on different screen sizes, phones and tablets at quirktools.com/screenfly.
And before I get to #6, let me say I respect web designers and you should too. This is an art one could probably spend a lifetime trying to perfect. Needless to say, this guide is only sufficient in giving you the basics of making a good website. Ok, onto the #6.
Arguably the most important of all of these:
How in the fuck are you going to get people to visit your website?
There's many ways to procure visitors. There's SEO, PPC advertising (Google, Facebook, YouTube and so many other places), traditional advertising, social media marketing, PR and countless options I can't even think of.
What I'm going to do now is break down the Graduate & Live marketing plan to you, step-by-step.
If you've actually made it this far, know that we are almost done. For shits and giggles, here's a photo of what I'm looking at while writing these words. This is a view from my office complex here in Chiang Mai.
Okay let's begin:
The goal of SEO is to get your website ranking near #1 on Google for a specific search query (keyword). The point of this is to get not only traffic to your website, but targeted (the right kind of) visitors to your site.
To do this you need to research what people are looking for. You can also learn how many people are making those searches and how easy or difficult it would be to rank for them.
TIP: Moz.com is a great, free resource to learn SEO basics.
What your keyword research essentially does is give you a list of topics to write about. If you write about them and follow basic SEO principles you can improve your chances of getting targeted visitors.
For Graduate & Live I have three keyword lists themed around:
"digital nomad"
"how to freelance"
"college jobs"
When a website links to yours, Google treats this as an endorsement. The power of the "link juice" is weighted depending on the power of the site giving it to you (e.g. a link from CNN.com would have more influence than from a barely-visited blog).
Long story short, you want to get (good) links pointing to your website. Here's my plan:
Press releases.
Blog outreach.
Directory submissions.
Online directories exist that organize the websites of the web. You can submit your site to them and if it's relevant they'll accept you and link back to your website.
Children International (Children.org)
Children International is a charity I support and have a pretty good relationship with. Around the world I support nine kids, but in India there's three that I've gotten the chance to meet. Ashley wrote a story about when she, Aom and I met them during The G&L 2016 Summer Tour of Asia. I'm going to reach out to Children International and see if they will link to the story.
I have two public relations goals. The first is simply to get links from websites covering my story. This should help with SEO. The second goal is to get media outlets to cover a story involving Graduate & Live. This will hopefully drive traffic directly to the site.
A press release is a way the media receives news from outside sources. The actual press release is a specifically formatted one page document created by individuals or organizations trying to share a story.
Good press releases are distributed through paid services. I'll be using PRWeb.com and selecting two of their packages: The $159 Standard service and the $369 Premium service.
Why two press releases?
The first and cheaper release will be used for SEO purposes. To take advantage of this opportunity, it's important to include keywords in the release itself and in its title.
The second release will pitch a story that will hopefully be picked up by major media outlets. In theory this and the first goal could both be accomplished in one release. However, it's easier for me creatively to separate them. An example story I may pitch is something like this geared towards parents: How a new generation is making a living while traveling the globe.
Beyond news release services, I have four PR strategies to pursue: Hometown news, University newspapers, National Geographic Traveler and Tim Ferris's podcasts.
Maybe the local magazine, newspapers and new stations will cover a story involving a local person (me). So after grabbing their email addresses from their websites I will just go ahead and pitch them a story directly.
College students are people I want to connect with. Wikipedia has a nationwide listing of university newspapers. I'll pitch stories to each and every one of them and see what happens.
TIP: Email marketing.
If you've just been paying attention, you just learned email marketing (but you should still learn the spam law).
Step 1) Find or create a list of people to target.
Step 2) Email them.
It would be so cool to have a story mine published by Nat Geo. That's reason enough to want to write for them. If I am lucky enough to write for them, it may also help build my brand. They even have a digital nomad section.
The trip I'm thinking of suggesting to them is "Survival in the jungle: exploring the wilderness with a Thai soldier."
Tim Ferris is author of The 4 Hour Workweek. His podcast gets a huge amount of listeners. Since I can be considered a success case of his, maybe he'd be interested in having me on. Via social media I hope to improve my odds, which I'll talk about later.
This is simple, the first step here is the actual blog outreach. I'll use Google to find blogs related to what I'm doing (travel blogs). Then I'll check out the sites and sign up for their newsletters. If something interesting pops up, I'll join in or start a conversation with the blogger. If at some point it feels right I can let them know about my website and hopefully they'd choose to link to it one day.
The second step is to look for and enter blog contests. Hopefully I'll win and get new viewers and links.
The third and last step would be to join in any relevant forums/message boards. For me that would be digitalnomadsforum.com and nomadforum.io.
That brings us to the last step of the marketing plan and the last part of this blog post: social media.
The G&L 2016 Summer Tour of Asia produced a lot of great content. I have an abundance of really nice travel videos, stories and pictures. A good way to make use of these is to share them on the proper social media channels.
Branding your account
Artistically, my goal is to make a unique and entertaining Instagram account. A$AP Rocky is someone I look to for inspiration here. You can see his account here. See how the row and sections (row groupings) take priority over any individual picture? Stylistically I plan to copy this approach.
Adding quality content
I'm so excited to launch the IG profile because it will give me a chance to share some unique content. Using a website called Magisto I've created 15 awesome music videos using travel footage.
Sticking to A$AP Rocky's IG style, I am going to use the videos to tell a story of traveling through Asia. Actually, I've already designed the IG gallery and have enough content to post every day for about three months. It's a really great account I think. Here is the link if you want to follow along.
Getting Followers
And lastly, I'll follow people who liked images of certain hashtags. I'll be doing this because following people is maybe the best way to get followed yourself.
This image sharing site is great for getting images to go viral. In the past I've gotten tens of thousands of views from just a handful of galleries and individual images that I have posted.
As part of the G&L marketing strategy, I'll publish about 100 posts to Imgur. I actually already have a spreadsheet made detailing the post titles and image(s) to use. These aren't just any old images either; these are the top 3% from over 7000 travel pictures.
In these posts I'll include a link to my website with a call to action, like "if you want to see more travel stuff then check out my website, graduateandlive.com." Honestly I don't know if Imgur users will even click through, but at worst it will be cool to see that hundreds of thousands or millions of people have seen my posts.
Reddit is my favorite website and the best place I know of for things to go viral. The most important thing here is to follow Reddiquette and the rules of individual sub-reddits.
What I'll be doing on Reddit is posting the same content as on Imgur, but without a link to my website and without a call to action, as those are against the rules here. Hopefully other Redditors will take interest and spark up natural conversation of what I'm doing in the comment section. This would then then allow me to share my info with them.
On Reddit it's key to find sub-reddits that suit you. I'm mainly going to share with r/travel, r/digitalnomad, r/solotravel and r/pics. Although there are two posts I hope to make on other sub-reddits.
The goal here is to motivate people with a story of mine. This really has nothing to do with G&L, but it would be cool if people get motivated. Plus it may help me get more known on Reddit.
This is the ask me anything sub-reddit. I hope to post a "IAmA (I am a …) 4 Hour Workweek success story, AMA (ask me anything)". If it gains some traction, maybe that could help get me onto Tim Ferris's podcast.
TIP: Stick to social media platforms you're familiar with. I've never been a Twitter person, so even though it's a large platform I'm going to avoid it.
Using clips from the trip, I've created a mini-travel series. Most of the videos are long by Youtube standards. And to be quite frank, it's asking a lot from a first-time viewer to invest more than a few minutes in a video, so to address this I've created trailer that's less than a minute long.
Facebook will be the place where people I actually know follow me. Maybe this will prove to be helpful in spreading the content (through likes and shares).
I'll be treating FB as a social media headquarters for G&L. In order to tell a story (of G&L, the trip to Asia, and working online), some unique content will be created for this platform. Otherwise the FB page will be used to share content created for the website and other social media sites.
Off the actual page, one method of gaining likes is by joining other communities and conversations. So I'll look out for travel pages and interact with them way makes sense.
That's a wrap for the marketing plan.
And that's it for this guide too. I'd obviously love it if you bookmarked Graduate & Live, follow the Instagram account (@GraduateAndLive), like the G&L Facebook page and subscribe to my Youtube channel. Sharing is caring, so if you see something you like, please share it.
If you are interested in freelancing and really want to up your odds at success, I'll be giving away 7 review copies of the Modern Guide to Freelancing. Ask for a review copy in the comments.
Until next time,
To all aspiring digital nomads, I recommend this interesting article.
In the nut shell, be wary of the fake gurus.
Skepticism is good in this community. There are a lot of people to be wary of.
I think it's obvious that with your post your trying to protect other people. But with the way you wrote your comment (and with the title of the article you shared), you're basically calling me a liar and a scammer without even addressing any issues directly.
I've read the post. Only one of the points even applies to me: the disbelief that someone can accomplish the 4-Hour Workweek (without making peanuts). You and the author can believe whatever you'd like about the ability to thrive working less than hours a week, but if you're gonna call me out publicly as a liar I'm going to tell you that you are wrong.
I have no ill will against you, but I'll defend the truth when my integrity gets questioned.
Good luck to you in all your endeavors.
The reason of sharing the link was just to raise the awareness about the fakes out there. My apologies if you feel it was directed towards you. It was never my intention.
Thanks for clearing it up. I appreciate it and I'm glad you spoke up for others. It shows you care.
Rather than taking astabooty word that only one point applies to him, I encourage all members of this community to read the article in question (https://entrepreneurs.maqtoob.com/10-signs-that-your-digital-nomad-guru-or-advisor-is-a-crackpot-bd63727f9cad#.vo777v5kg) and then this guy's post, and make up their own minds.
Very good rundown, but I take issue with the SEO value of press releases as outlined. The SEO value of press release distribution (via services like PRWeb) are pretty much nonexistent, and it's very unlikely that journalists will read anything on PRWeb and cover the story as a result.
I own a digital PR agency and my particular area of expertise is in content SEO, and I go into the (non)value of press release distribution services in this post, which includes interviews from journalists who also think PRWeb/PRnewswire/etc. are useless.
TLDR; save the $ on press release distribution services, and instead build a media list of journalists and bloggers that you can reach out to directly. If you really want to chase high quality backlinks, I recommend reading and replying to HARO queries on a regular basis. And HARO is free, which I'm a fan of.
I ran an experiment where I "went hard at HARO" for 30 days and got decent results, which is pretty typical when you know how to properly respond to reporter queries. Many of our clients get 15+ placements/backlinks per month via HARO alone.

Hey Kari, thanks for sharing your knowledge. What you said about press release distribution services is something I'll take into consideration. I've read your whole article and have a question about something not covered. You do mention that various news sites will automatically pick up your release. And you make a fair point that these postings may never be read. But what about the value of the links being made to your website and posts?
Thanks to the press releases I recently made, I now have hundreds of links from credible websites being directed to blog posts made for valuable keywords, plus these links have good anchor text.
The truth is more important than being right, which is why I value your input. Are you saying these links are worthless in the eyes of Google?

Good luck to you in all your endeavors, Ryan
The value of the links have been zero for a while. There's more info here, via Search Engine Watch. You can find a lot of other links that also point to the fact that links acquired from press release pickups don't help with SEO – this has been the case for a while, and the 200+ generic pickups of press releases as reported by PRWeb & others are just vanity metrics. They make reports look good to people who don't know any better, but they don't deliver any real value.
Can you give some tips on properly responding to reporter queries
Super helpful post from what I saw! (wayyyy too long for me to read right now haha) thank you for taking the time to write this :)
This was a super helpful guide as someone embarking on the digital nomad journey and transition into FT freelance. Thank you!
Hey there,
Read your post and found it pretty enlightening. I do have a few questions though for you when it comes to freelancing and utilizing websites like Upwork. What can a freelancer do to stand out from other candidates competing for the same project? And on average, how many projects would you apply to before getting hired? I know the latter question might be a bit subjective, but I'm just curious if starting out...one should just expect to play a "numbers game".
Hey jontiag0,
If you post a job on Upwork you will get a much better idea of what the competition looks like. Many set a very low bar by using copy/paste proposals.
First i think it's good to personally address the person who made the job post and to address details about the project.
Second, your proposal is just a way to get your foot in the door. Keep it short, because the hirer usually gets overwhelmed by proposals to read.
Third, truly try to help. In the pasts I've had freelancers steer me in a new direction (because with their expertise they knew a better way to achieve what I was trying to accomplish) and I hired them.
And for your second question about percentages, it was probably in the 5-10% range.
Digital Nomads are individuals that leverage technology in order to work remotely and live an independent and nomadic lifestyle.

Warmth to reign across Germany this week
By Eric Leister, AccuWeather senior meteorologist
April 17, 2018, 8:49:20 AM EDT
The unseasonable warmth that has prevailed across much of Germany this month has no end in sight as temperatures are set to climb once again.
Tuesday featured drier weather with a slight uptick in temperatures across Germany, a trend that will continue in the coming days.
High pressure centered just to the east of Germany will prevent any storm systems from approaching the region and also pull warm air northward from the Mediterranean.
Dry weather and abundant sunshine are forecast for Wednesday with high temperatures of 20-22 C (68-72 F) for much of the country.
Further warming is expected on Thursday as high temperatures range from 21-24 C (70-76 F) in most areas with a few locations reaching 25 C (78 F) in western Germany.
Similar temperatures are expected throughout the country on Friday as high pressure continues to dominate the region, resulting in dry weather and plenty of sunshine.
Germany Weather Center
Interactive Germany weather radar
Detailed Berlin weather forecast
This prolonged period of warm and dry weather will be ideal for traveling and enjoying outdoor plans.
A weak frontal boundary will cross northern and eastern Germany over the weekend and cause temperatures to fall a few degrees; however, temperatures will remain above normal even in these locations.
No rainfall is expected with this frontal passage, and locations farther south and west will have continued summerlike warmth and abundant sunshine.
A stronger cold front is expected to arrive next week which will bring the threat for showers and thunderstorms and may lower temperatures closer to normal levels.
