There is another type of online job which seems to be very popular. What I am referring to is the “Mystery Shopper”. This is a very unique way of earning an income online. Mystery shoppers have one purpose, to evaluate various businesses as to the degree of service they provide their customers. Sometimes the business is a retail outlet, it might even be a restaurant. In the case of eating establishments, the shopper is to evaluate how they were greeted when they walked into the business, how long it took for their order to be taken. The shopper will rate the cleanliness of the restaurant, the restrooms as well as the quality of the food. The overall appearance of the staff is graded as well as the visibility of management.

There are many ways to make money online. Some are great ways to either add to your current income, some are methods you can use in beginning an online business of your own. Yes, there are plans and methods which perform exactly as promised. Unfortunately, there are some systems which do not. Even Even if you have done your homework, it is still possible to become involved in plans which are designed only to take your money. Even if the system works, there is another point to consider. When working online, there are two terms commonly used. One is “Black hat”, the other “White hat” methods of making money. Yes, the meaning of each term is exactly what you would think.

White hat systems are designed to assist in making money online, using methods which are not only proven to work, but the process used is ethical and above board. For example, it the system is one which shows you how to make money through sending emails, it will provide the names of the sources from which you can obtain lists of email addresses. It will explain the ways to avoid sending “spam”, and provide the tools to ensure you stay within appropriate guidelines. A Black hat system, on the other hand, will promote the use of a “bot” which will invade online data bases for the purpose of gathering private email addresses and other information. Can the Black hat system generate more income, possibly. One thing it will accomplish is eliminating the cost of email lists. However, you should look at the entire picture. Regardless of how much you profit, the method you used is very questionable.

In essence, Black hat systems are simply ways to avoid using the acceptable manner of gathering information in order to make a profit. These systems can relate to many areas of online business. They can pertain to email addresses, such as in the above example, or less than honest methods of marketing. One of the most effective sites on which to place ads is Craigslist. At one time is was a very simple to post an ad for a product on this site. However, due to abuse, the site began requiring a Phone verified account, PVA, before posting was allowed. The primary reason for this was the use of bots. You can post one ad for each telephone number. The Black hat method teaches you how to call telephone numbers listed in the Telephone directory and the best lies to tell in order to get their number onto an account with Craigslist.

I know is is easy to become tempted to use any means possible to achieve your goal. However, I also know the majority of people are honest. It wold be better to take a little more time to reach your goals than to use a method you know to be wrong. Believe me, it will bother you whether you will admit it or not.
