Internet Marketing Lies

The more I see of the tactics of the Internet marketing gurus and would be gurus, the more I think they are just peddling a bunch of lies. Even if you ignore all the get rich quick hype and just look at how they try to sell most of their Internet marketing products you still see that Internet marketers lie all too often. The following are some of the lies I see over and over again.

The One Time Offer

Sometimes this one is true, but most of the time all you need to do is bookmark the page and come back days, weeks or months later and you can still get the supposed one time offer. It’s a sales gimmick designed to get you to act right away before you have time to reconsider the purchase.

The Price is Only Good for the first 100 Purchases

This one is also sometimes true, but most of the time if they can sell to hundreds or thousands at the original price they will. I don’t know how many times I have seen a supposed counter of how many are sold or how many are left that is noting but a static graphic. It’s just another gimmick to get you to part with your money before you put too much thought into the purchase.

Anyone can Make Money with this Product

This Internet marketing lie is crafted to make you believe that you can’t lose if you buy the product. Don’t worry about the money you are spending because you can easily make it back and much more. The unfortunate truth is that most of these products sound much easier to apply than they are. The Internet marketer gets you all wrapped up in the hype and tells you very little about the product and what you actually need to do if you are going to make money with it.

I’m a Millionaire — just do what I did and you can be a Millionaire too

If I had a hundred dollars for every form of this one I have seen I’d be a millionaire too. The fact is — everyone who has become successful at Internet marketing has done it by forging their own trails and working long hard hours finding out what works for them. You will not be able to duplicate their success by reading an overpriced e-book or taking an expensive course or joining their exclusive membership site. Internet marketing success is about hard work and finding what works for you.

Great Benefits for Free

Everyone knows that offering something for free is the surest way to get more attention to a product or service. Unfortunately, most Internet marketers will give you very little of value for free. They are focused on getting the most money they can from your wallet. One of the ways they do this is to get you to invest time and energy into their free product. You then become a prime target for their up-sell pitch where the product or service becomes a lot less free.

If you really want to make money on the Internet instead of losing it, you need to see past the Internet marketing lies and find your own way. There is plenty of good information out there and most of it is totally free. Look for honest advice from people who wish to share their knowledge of fat burner pills instead of empty your wallet.
