The thing I don’t get about Caroline Middlebrook or her blog is that she is not a make money online beginner.

I used to be subscribed and have read through her entire blog archives (ok I was a sucker I admit, but I’ve now reformed so that must count for something lol) and in a previous post she says she was in internet marketing in 2002. She used PPC back then instead of SEO, but then again this is what reminded me since you say you’re either an SEO guy or a PPC guy. Well she was a PPC and I don’t understand why now she has a blog which never mentioned PPC apart from that one time.

This is just one of the things that didn’t sit right with me, out of many things, I have to say.

Okay all I’m going to say about Caroline Middlebrook is that some things don’t add up.

I’m not going into ethics here because business ethics is a huge subject - to big to debate here.

Want I will say is that she started this last year knowing nothing, or very little about internet marketing. Yet after just a few months she was marketing her ebook as though she was an expert.

No one becomes an expert in so short a time. I have worked long and hard building up a reputation in my field as an expert, I’ve even written books (of the none ebook variety) on the subject and its taken me many years to be considered an expert within my profession (quality management).

Her own income stats shows that even now after eight or nine months she is still no expert but publicing herself as one with all her products.

Basically thats what I don’t like. It took me many hours graft offline to build my reputation, it’s wrong to see some people just appearing online and after a couple of months marketing themselves as some “guru” and asking to be paid for their “knowledge.”

Atleast people like Yaro Starak and John Chow put in the work to get to where they are now. Even Yaro Starak, who she seems to be following, advices not to blog about becoming a success as a blogger until you actually are.

From her own stats - she isn’t and probably with her business plan, it’s doubtful if she ever will be.

Vic:

You disparage her partly because she promotes an Adsense book, but makes little money from Adsense. But you fail to recognize that she might be making money on other sites besides her blog.

Your own blog makes little money compared to your other sites.
