Internet Marketing Experiencing New Trend

    /24-7PressRelease/ - CORVALLIS, OR, August 09, 2008 - A new wind is blowing across the internet. More and more internet marketing opportunities are offering free memberships, free web sites, no monthly fees, free marketing tools and no obligation to upgrade to paid status until people voluntarily choose to do so. This trend seems to indicate that people are just plain "fed up" with all the money schemes that require their hard-earned money to be plunked down right up front before having a chance to thoroughly check out the opportunity and find out whether it is really a fit for them. The trend seems to be wide-spread and implies a couple of things. 1. Those seeking an internet marketing opportunity are becoming more sophisticated. 2. Although the downturn in the economy is driving more and more people to consider the internet as a way to bring in extra money, people are exercising more discretion as to which programs or opportunities they are getting involved with. This is a two-sided coin and seems to be causing many internet marketing companies to offer "freebies" which allow people to familiarize themselves before making a financial commitment. The other side of the coin is that unless someone is willing to commit some financial resources and move from free to paid status, they cannot qualify for monetary compensation. We were able to locate two classic examples of this trend. The first opportunity offers a free membership which includes a free web site with no monthly fees of any kind. The web site includes an arsenal of marketing tools that can be used to promote anything on the internet. If someone decides to become a paid member they pay a one-time $59.95, but again with no monthly fees. After referring one other person who also pays the $59.95, they begin earning $40 commissions on each additional paid member they refer. The second opportunity we discovered has a little different twist. It is referred to as a "Cash Gifting Program" and has no product. It also offers a free membership, free web site, free marketing tools and there are no monthly fees of any kind. If someone decides to get involved financially they send a gift of money ranging from $20 to $2500 to the person who invited them. Once they have done that and have referred one other person who also sends a gift of any size to their inviter, they become qualified for life to receive cash gifts up to and including the amount of their original cash gift. So, in this opportunity, if someone sends a cash gift of $2500 and then becomes qualified, they can begin receiving cash gifts up to and including $2500. Both of these opportunities accept payment using a credit card and the last opportunity, which is the gifting program, actually sends cash gifts to members' ATM cards with which a paid member can draw out up to $500 per day.
