NOVEMBER 21, 2010: The FREE TIPS will continue to be free.

This is a discussion that was created in March of 2009. The free tips will continue to be free.*smile*

I have created a new Group that contains special Premium Ning Tips. It is $29.95 per year - - less than the cost for one good tip.  If you are interested in the Premium Tips, you can preview and subscribe here: Preview Premium Ning Tips

========= DISCUSSION STARTED MARCH 2009 =========

I am adding a new tip section for Premium Tips. These are the tips that take me hours to create and explain. Some of our current free tips have been lifted by another Ning Site (which will remain nameless), and used as their own. If they had given credit and a link back here, no problem. But, not the case. I enjoy sharing knowledge. But, I don't like feeling like my hard work and time is being taken advantage of.

Due to this, and so much time I spend on some of the tips: I will offer Premium Tips for a very small donation. These tips will be copyrighted. I have to do something to protect my/our interest and time.

Do you think this is fair? And, should I charge a flat fee like $9.95 per tip, or let the member donate what they choose to donate?

Don't worry. I will always offer free tips, as well. Premium will only be the special tips, that not many people have the knowledge to provide. Additionally, these will be the tips that I charge for my time, to install on Ning Sites and/or other websites. Feel free to be honest.

Also, keep in mind: sometimes I want to offer a tip that I can't stop and create, due to my time needed to generate money, to pay the bills. LOL If I know I can get a little hamburger money, then I would have more time to dedicate to some high quality premium tips.

Best Regards,
