Going Broke Online
Some days I feel like I’m brain dead and wonder why I’m even wasting all my time and money. I’m debating with myself about deleting 4 of my websites because they are simply sitting there and I do absolutely nothing with them. I sometimes think I’m going broke online.
I know I haven’t worked on them for a couple years so it’s silly to pay for domain names and websites that are useless even though I’m sure the information is probably helpful to the visitors that Google sends. Since taking up blogging I have neglected many things, but at least I’m not wasting my money on programs any more.
I have wasted so much money online since deciding that I could actually make some and a hundred of that was to a program called The Best Traffic Of Your Life or TBTOYL and what this program did was redirect your websites or affliate links through their program and they claimed that it would help your traffic also. Well it didn’t and it was a real pain to use so I don’t use it any more.
I really don’t do much affiliate work any more so I don’t need the redirecting. If your not careful you can spend a lot of money to make money. Many people succeed online by using free programs and services and silly me I even paid for that information that I could have found by myself, but that was when I first started out.
I work within a budget now so all those great new programs that come out I simply block because I know I don’t need them and I wont ever use them just like the ton I just got rid of. I can never understand how to use these must have programs anyhow. Hide your credit card because it’s way to easy to whip out and go broke.

What are the sites you may consider selling? I might be interested depending on the topics.

Yeah, it’s easy to waste money online. You’re right, so much of the information is available for free, though. And when you spend money to make money, you are always taking a risk. Usually it doesn’t pan out the way you want, but sometimes it will and then it’s all worth it.

Hi Michael,
I doubt you would be interested in these sites because they are stagnant and have lost their page rank and all they do is sit with no purpose and I wouldn’t know how to sell them anyhow. I was thinking about burying them with a little dignity. A babyshower, wedding planning and yoga site plus the site I sell e-books and that one I couldn’t sell anyhow. I was thinking about just moving all the information to my main site and letting them die.

Hi Lindsay,
Thanks for stopping by and you’re right, but so few manage to get it right to be worth their time.
