List of forums:
Phpbb – Free
SMF – Free
Invision Power Board – Pay
Vbulletin – Pay (Recommended)

Of those four, I’d recommend phpbb if you are looking to set up a free forum, and vbulletin if you want to pay. The advantage of paying for a forum is you get support, your forum is more secure, and you don’t have to update your forum so often.

It’s easy to set up these forums, they all come with a guide so that you can easily select what you want. Themes (which I specialize in!), different categories, moderating system, etc.

Get it set up, send me an invite – I’d be glad to join your new forum!

Now, let’s thing about this. you are spending only $208 a year, but you have the possibility to make A LOT of money. Let’s say you attract and get 30 people a day to buy webhosting from you, that’s only 1 person a day which is definitely easy to obtain. Now, the customer pays $5.00/mo. So you are making $150 for the first month. That’s not a lot, but think about this: you get 30 ADDITIONAL customers the next month. Now you are at $300 a month. That’s an extra $3,600 a year. This method is certainly scalable.

If you have any questions for me, use the contact form on this page.

John here!

A lot of people ask me “How much money do you make online?”, “How to make money online?”, “I have a full time job but I want to make a little extra on the side, how can I?”

The answer is not simple unfortunately… of course you all have seen those surveys that you can fill out for a couple cents, but lets face it – that won’t get you money anytime fast! So, of course you will have to put in some time into it… Now, I’m sure you have bought products on amazon before, correct? They have a HUGE selection of almost any product you want.

Well here is what you do:
1. You open an e-commerce store selling a specific niche type product. For instance, you would just sell ninja stars. you wouldn’t sell sell mace, pepper spray, police batons, knives, etc. The advantage of focusing on a single product line is that you will OWN that space. If you spread out too much then your control will divide and your primary focus will go on a downward slope.
2. Once you have come up with a product idea, you will need somewhere to sell it! Just sign up with Volusion – Try it Free (under $20 a month), this where you can sell your products.

3. Promote the heck out of your new website via twitter, facebook, a search engine, etc.

Questions that I have been receiving:
Q: I have a product in mind but how am I suppose to sell it if I don’t have it? Great question, and I should of covered this! You will need to contact manufacturers of the product, and offer to sell the products for them. Some companies will ship you the products, and then you sell them, and even some companies will “dropship” product (meaning they will actually ship the product right to the customer for you!).
