In today's episode I'm answering listener questions.

Hear all about that one time I got scammed online, and I also give advice to a group of authors on the best type of paid advertising use to get more traffic.

#1 – Have you ever been scammed online?

I’d like to know if you’ve fallen foul of the million and one other types of make money online “opportunities” that have promised to help create an income but which only make an income for the person offering the information.

I’ve been through so many different courses, twists and turns and feel that I’ve made it through the sea of charlatans to what it really means to make a viable, legal income online (thank you Shannon!)

Has that been hard for you? Or are you one of the lucky ones who landed on the right track straight away?

Listen to the episode to hear about the time I was scammed online, plus my experience with buying online courses.

Many freelancers and side hustlers fall victim to the scam, and Tekla’s blog post offers tips how to detect and fight scammers.

#2 – Where should I put my advertising dollars?

A group of authors I belong to is considering advertising, since we all do most of the free marketing actions already.

If we are going to spend money, where is it best spent?

FB, Amazon, Google? And how do we determine the best target audience for our ads? The group is the Bluestocking Belles. You can find out more about their individual books and boxsets here
