This website is dedicated to helping people who are seeking passive income without losing time with the people that matter the most.

On this website we learn how to get started with making money using a WordPress website.

And in the near future I’ll share many other ways to make money from home. But, for now we’ll stick with blogging.

Some call it affiliate blogging, niche websites, SEO content writing and marketing, or just plain ole blogging.

Either way, this websites goal is to provide you with resources, reviews, and tips that you may need to make a more informed decision when starting your new exciting career in making money blogging.

The purpose of this website is to share the possibilities of how you can start earning online passively, without investing a huge amount of money and avoid scams.

With today’s technology and advanced internet hackers there’s a ton of online claims, from making push button money or simply getting rich over night.

Unfortunately, the online industry is bloated with these types of false claims.

I’ve decided to help you make more informed decisions because, in 2017 I was scammed out of $3k dollars from a home based business opportunity, which then lead me to blogging. I’ve been helping people avoid scams for the last 5 years.

Full disclosure here: This website is still a work in progress. So, please be patient as I build it out. If you’d like join me on my journey, please feel free to follow along.

The idea of purchasing a course is to help you understand what you’re doing. Courses can help you advance your skills a lot faster but, they won’t necessary help you become rich. If they did everyone that starts a blog or affiliate marketing would be rich.
