In today’s world, every single person needs to start a business, or have some sort of alternative income source that is separate from their job.
I want you to get this thought into your head. I want you to keep it in there, circling around and around like a mantra:
Owning your own business is the quickest ticket to freedom.Â
When I look around, I see a lot of people playing a really risky game.
While there’s no harm in taking risks, you only want to take on risks that make sense. The right risks. Risks that benefit you in the long-term rather than the short-term.
One of the worst risks you can possibly take is putting all of your eggs in one basket, and this is exactly what many people are doing.
Let me explain.
Let’s talk about one of the most dreading things in internet marketing – refunds.
If you are selling lots of products, refund requests become increasing frequent. Quite frankly, they are inevitable. Even if the products you put out are of extremely high quality, you will still get refund requests for one reason or another.
Sometimes, the product just isn’t right for them.
Sometimes, the purchase wasn’t intended.
And sometimes people just want to steal your work and then get their money back.
Whatever the reason, the result is almost always the same – you end up with less money at the end of the day. However, refunds are not something you should spend a lot of time worrying about, because they can be delt with quite easily. Here is how I personally deal with refund requests, and what I’d recommend you do as well.
I have believed for a while now that every blogger should try their hands at Kindle publishing at least once. Kindle books are about as passive as it gets, because once you publish it, Amazon will continue to try and sell it to interested customers forever. The books require very little to no maintenance, and publishing more and more books is a great way to grow your income over time.
As bloggers, we have a huge advantage over everybody else, because we already have a lot of experience writing. We already know how to effectively communicate ideas. We already know how to make our writing exciting and engaging. Most of us are great at selling as well.
This means that if somebody like us started publishing on Kindle, we’d have the upper-hand.Â
I’ve been asked a few times why I don’t tend to publish guest posts here on James McAllister Online. The truth is, I’m very selective with who’s content I publish on here.
A few weeks ago Thomas Smale, the co-founder of FE International, contacted me for an expert round-up post on FE International’s blog called “How To Make Money Online With A Niche Website.”
A few email exchanges later, Thomas asked me if I’d be interested in a guest post for my site. Knowing the quality behind his work, I couldn’t refuse. So without any further ado, here’s Thomas!
So, you want to sell your website? At FE International we have years of successful transaction experience selling both large and small websites in a variety of niches such as health, writing, photography, fashion and travel to name a few.

I’ve been wondering for a while now what the ‘next big thing’ is in terms of internet marketing and product creation, and how us bloggers / entrepreneurs can get in early.
7 years ago, it was smartphones. Big app developers became millionaires overnight as the mobile app market grew into a 10 billion dollar a year industry. A few years ago, Kindle and other eBook platforms took off and are still growing rapidly today. What’s next?
I think e-Learning is going to be the next big thing, specifically with video courses. Why do I say this?
