I just read an insightful post by Jennifer, "PotPieGirl" about the tax issues that negatively impacts the online income of many affiliates in her State of GA.
Recently, Jennifer announced that she was "divorcing Google," due to the income losses she and other people have suffered by the many changes implemented by Google without notice. These changes have de-indexed many profitable sites. PotPieGirl's response was to immediately begin diversifying her sources of traffic.
I prefer to blog about positive, uplifting subjects. But when you learn about these serious issues from knowledgeable, experienced people like PotPieGirl, it's time to pay attention and reexamine the makeup of your online business.
Personally, I intend to follow Jennifer's example and diversify my sources of traffic (and revenue) to avoid the devastation suffered by many people when they woke up one day and found that huge portions of their income had banished into thin air, compliments of a Google slap.
Thank you PotPieGirl for your insightful advice.
