Dot Com Mogul Requirements
I read about Dot Com Mogul Requirements as stated by John Chow. Let us see how they relate to what I am doing at the moment.
1. Income is to be made from Internet. Well, my income is only about 5% of what I am doing offline, and my work at blog reading and writing takes most of my time lately as I delved into blogosphere only a month ago, and enjoyed it a lot! I presume my time investment will pay off in one or two years.
2. The minimum Internet income should be 10K USD. I set my goal at 3K USD for online income as this is a minimum requirement to live in Ukraine. Still, there is a difference in TradeHours and MoneyMachine schemes in Internet that John does not specify. They intersect in John’s case as his popularity and help of his colleagues practically result in a perfect MoneyMachine blog.
3. You have no jobs outside of the Internet. Even though blogging is a part-time occupation for me, I really do not have a job but private business with little involvement which is really great for a blogging.
4. You have a personal blog with your name as the domain name. I do! http://www.alexradich.com is exactly what is needed!
5. Your blog must be updated at least once per week. I meet this requirement to this date.
6. A Google search with your name must be at #1 spot. I guess what bloggers with popular names or with names of some celebrity should do. Their names could be too popular to meet this requirement. But mine qualifies. I checked with Google and found that my name search resulted in my blog being #1!
7. You must be willing to help other mogul dot com wannabes. I will! I am keen to help others! That is in my nature.
So summarizing the task of meeting 7 requirements I have only one problem, and that is #2 rule. But I will work on that, day after day!
