Even though TLC Promotions has been around for a long time, especially in Internet time, I realize that not everyone knows about it. I would like to change that. TLC Promotions is the result of my search for a way to create an income online. The site is a collection of tips and resources for creating and promoting whatever you're into, on the Internet.

Back in 1998, I got my first computer, sat down and taught myself how to use it and went online to make some money. I didn't make the big time, but I did have a positive experience. Now mind you, when I started out, I was as green as the grass growing outside my window; now, not so much. I learned quickly and my education lit a fire that drove me toward my passion.

Rather than become an MLM giant, I began writing about the programs that came to me in the form of SPAM. I investigated some frauds and some less than ethical business opportunities; but the main thing is that I reconnected with my passion for writing. I began writing an ezine and publishing it via an RSS feed and then I started a company writing promotional copy in article format for others. From there I went to writing a book. I've written several, actually. The best experience I've had though is the socialization. I have met some truly awesome people and learned much over time. Would I do things differently if I were to begin right now? Sure, a few, but not too much. I would only change the amount of time I actually spent working an MLM business. I would have saved a great deal of money. I believe in the MLM company I chose and the products they manufacture, but I just couldn't get others as excited about it as I am. I am still a Preferred Customer, but I am not a great business builder. At least when it comes down to MLM, I'm not. I have however, built a nice business as a freelance commercial writer, and I enjoy the work very much. After having my reputation trashed by an envious liar, I have been rebuilding what she tried to destroy. That's just who I am. I am a fighter and a survivor. I have met so many knowledgeable and inspiring people online and I wouldn't trade that for all the money in the world. I have learned much by surrounding myself with people who know more than I do. That is the best part of self-education. I don't have an college degrees, but do I really need them? I don't think so. I have a brain; therefore I can learn. Sure, I'd like to be able to say that I have made a fortune online, but that would be a lie. I have made enough to help with expenses and that is about it. But, that is okay. I loved every minute of the work, and work is not work when you love what you do. I love what I do. I haven't punched a time clock in 15 years and I have loved being a stay-at-home-mom. It doesn't pay as well as a union job, but the rewards have been many. I wouldn't trade the time I got to spend with my kids for anything.

The time has come to say good-bye. I have spent enough time online to know when it is time to leave. I'll still be online, but not in the same capacity. I have to write, but I am going to have to change platforms. I can no longer afford to maintain my domains or feeds, and I am going to have to resort to: dare I say, free stuff. So, I will be on Squidoo and Blogger, but TLC Promotions and Ads-OnQ are closing up shop. The overhead has exceeded the revenue. I have thought about this for a very long time now, and it just has to be done. At one time, my business was quite successful, but now it doesn't even pay for itself. I would like to apologize to my faithful visitors and subscribers for having to remove this information from your access, but what's a girl gonna do? So, now comes the end of TLC Promotions, AdsOnQ and The Trii-Zine Ezine. It's been fun, but it is now time to move on.

What a Hack!
A couple of months ago, I wrote an article about drive-by WiFi stealing. Well, although I thought I had my machine securely locked up, I was attacked by a hacker. Apparently, I had not been thorough enough in my security, and someone hacked into my machine through my router.
Contextual Advertising... The Good, Bad and Ugly
Everyone who has built a web site or blog wants to, or should want to , monetize their space on the web. Google invented AdWords, and the contextual advertising venue was launched; there was a new way to monetize space, expending minimal effort on the part of the web space holder. But, there are many more contextual advertisers than Google.

This is how I research a company. At least, this is how I find out who is behind the domain. I do a Whois search on the domain name, to find its owner and contact information.

It is an easy task, and takes just a few minutes. You just have to know where to look.

Stress-Free Living... Really?
Trina L.C. Sonnenberg

Does having a lot of money guarantee one a stress-free life? If you believe the marketing emails and web pages that proliferate online, it would appear to be the case. At least that is what people all over are testifying. But, is finance freedom equal to stress free living? I really have to wonder.
