'How I Make Money With $0 Case Study'

Hi there,

Most of you might wonder the reason I created this blog. It's simply because I want to share with you my case study about how can I make money online without spending any penny from my wallet. Be assure as this will be a real life case study with real life results for you to see and review.

Most of you will laugh at me when I mention that I wanted to try to make income without spending any money from my end. Well, if this case study can be helpful to some others, I don't mind all the laugh and sneer I heard before I started this project.

Many self-proclaimed gurus or masters in this business are croak (I emphasis on 'many' but not all of them are bad). Almost all of them teach us how to buy a domain and hosting and then try to rank that domain/money site in Google with some of them then recommend you to buy traffic via ads to the newly created site. The visitors are then directed to either a review blog or a squeeze page. This is the most standard method to be use nowadays but it makes me wonder, can I do it with free sites or method and added a little twist?

A brief introduction about me. In the past, I'm a person who been trying to generate income online like you. The reason is simple, it's during my studies that I had the need of money to buy things. I had several experiences in trying to earn real income via online but still unable to grasp the real jewel within it yet. I would also like to classify myself as an 'unsuccessful' internet marketer who had several years of experience in internet marketing and yet to get the real income from it.

Thus, I decided to dedicate this blog to those who had similar experiences like me or even to the new guys (girls) trying to earn online. I'm no expert but I'm a person who had lot of knowledge to be applied to. In addition, in the past, I was not so serious (yet) doing this IM business. It was kind like a hobby to me during that period. Learning to create a site, ranking it, get income from it. It's fun and challenging at the same time.

But, that's the past. Now, I seriously wanted to test how far my knowledge and experiences can bring me online income (perhaps a steady income).

Before I proceed, I would like to lay some of ground/ basic rules I'll follow in this case study.
