TKA teaches to focus mainly on getting search engine traffic which is what I do. You most likely found this site because it ranks well for whatever search phrase you used.

So basically, I find a niche, build a site around it, drive traffic, and put appropriate affiliate offers on it in order to make passive income. 90% of your time will be getting traffic, which is where writing articles come in, because without traffic, it’ll be tough to make money.

Hope that clears things up a bit. The TKA program goes into all of the details.

I stumbled upon your site as I was researching the company “Usana”. I have joined several network marketing (or MLM) companies before, but still have not made any money. I am still on the search for time and financial freedom, but thinking seriously about what I would truly enjoy and be good at, I am not certain MLM is for me. I do know that I want passive, residual income and to work from my computer. So, your site (and articles) have intrigued me and make me want to learn more about “internet marketing”.

I have read several of your articles, and enjoyed them very much, and I do plan on checking out TKA…but, I still do not have a clear understanding on exactly how you make money. Is it thru affiliate marketing or writing articles? I am curious on how you make money by having your website and write articles on your opinion of various subjects?

Thanks for clarifying or demystifying my thoughts on internet marketing, and how you actually get paid.

Your comments on the downsides of passive income are very good, people will always criticize us for trying to be financially independence. The other comment is also very good, it takes time and commitment to have several streams of passive income.
