Depending upon how you look at it Direct Matches could be considered a scam.  On one hand you may see it as  a good vehicle for a social network that allows you to earn money while you interact with others in the business community.  On the other hand you may see it as an unattractive site with generic advertising and promises of making money hand over fist.

Let’s break it down to pros and cons -

The Pros:

• Huge community of business professionals looking to network
• Free and Paid accounts
• Residual Income
• Spillover from members above you (if you have a good sponsor this helps tremendously)
• Ability to earn an unlimited amount
• Advertise whatever type of business you want

The Cons:

• Not a very good looking site (compared to Facebook, Myspace etc.)
• Can’t earn money as a free member
• First impressions could be that this is a pyramid scheme

I have been with Direct Matches for a little over a year and I must say that I barely use the services that are offered.  I am actually making money with it only because I am able to market it through the Spiderweb Marketing System.  If not for the fact that it is part of my marketing system I would most likely not use it at all.  If you would like to learn more about the spiderweb marketing system visit “How The Spiderweb Marketing System Works“.

One thing I do like about Direct Matches is that you get spillover from your upper levels.  Of course, this is only good if your upper levels are actually referring people.  When you do get a large enough team in your downline then you do start to make some money and you will start receiving checks like this:

If I was not receiving checks on a regular basis from Direct Matches then I probably would have given up on it a long time ago.  I find the site to be of poor quality, not only is it not aesthetically pleasing but it seems to be loaded with people that are just looking for you to join there “get rich quick” schemes.  Trying to weed though the good offers and plain junk is an effort in futility.

If the owners of Direct Matches took some time to revamp the site and make it a little more user friendly, maybe give it a more web 2.0 look, then I might be a little more interested.

Bottom line -

If you are looking to make money with Direct Matches then you better have a good way to advertise it or find a good sponsor that will help you build your downline.

If you are just looking for a place to promote your business for free then you can certainly do that and reach a pretty good audience.

If you are hoping to use it like Facebook but make money doing it…. stick with Facebook.

Hope I helped answer the question “Direct Matches Scam?”

The money that I used every morning for a cup of coffee and a muffin now go directly into my home business….. and I’m making a killing from it!

By saving the $3.63 plus tax from buying a coffee and whatever I felt like eating that day, I now throw that little amount of money into my own business. This can be implemented into whatever type of business that you are interested in having. Personally, I like to run an online affiliate business (find out more here).

Think about it, $3.63 per day, 28 days a month = $101.64

I know what you’re thinking, how far am I gonna get with a hundred bucks a month. You would be amazed what a little money can do for you when it comes to online advertising. I use a marketing system that is completely free and I use the extra hundred bucks to advertise this business on Google and various other sites. You can use the same system that I do…. just visit bryantpublishing.net

For starters…. all I’ve done is change my morning routine of buying coffee and now I brew my own and it costs me just a fraction. Think about all the other things you could cut back on in your life. Do you eat out at lunch or dinner a couple of times a week? Try figuring out how much you spend going out to eat. Now think how much you would save if you made your own lunch and dinner.

If you’re interested in getting rid of your day job and going into business yourself, the first thing that you need to do is get your budget in order. Find out how much you can afford to spend per month. This is half the battle of owning an affiliate business. You see, the big problem in having an online business is not the day to day running of the business, it’s getting people to visit your website(s). I will show you exactly how to get traffic with complete video tutorials (absolutely free).

What’s more, I will give you complete video tutorials on how to set up your own custom business from start to finish. All you need to do is follow the instructional videos and you will have your own business. Not to mention the tax savings that you will get by having your own business. Don’t understand how the whole tax thing works?… Don’t worry, we can help you out there too.
