I work online full-time, and have for well over a decade now. I got started back in the 90′s, way before ebooks and gurus and such…
I have a lot of online properties in a variety of niches. I’m a super affiliate, but have experience in a wide range of online business models.
There isn’t much I haven’t personally tried & tested in my 14+ years online. 
If you want to make money online, check in daily here at ClickNewz. I’ll give you tips & resources you can use to take your site to max profit potential!

About Lynn Terry
2011 marked the beginning of my 15th year in business. I work from my home office full-time, while raising my 2 children here in middle Tennessee. I just turned 38 in June of this year, and I’m living my ideal lifestyle! 
My last real job was as a Unix Sys Admin (booo-rrrr-ing!) which I quit in 1996 to start my first business. Some of my experience over the last decade includes professional web development, managing an international web team, start-up consulting, computer training, professional adviser for Intuit, partnerships with 2 wholesale/eBay companies, managing an offline business, and public speaking.
I ultimately ditched it all to become a Super Affiliate and Professional Blogger.
My focus now is on niche affiliate marketing, and on helping others achieve the same freedom & flexibility with a successful online business that I have for myself.
I received the May 2003 Best of Success Award at Total Life Success and am a contributing author to a #1 Best-Seller titled Wake Up… Live the Life You Love! I have been featured on Entrepreneur Magazine’s home biz talk radio show, as well as several other talk shows through both wsRadio and World Talk Radio.
Advertising, Reviews & Disclosure…
A big part of my mission with ClickNewz is to test out various ways to make money online, and then report the results here for your benefit. I also review websites, products, programs and even books.
Some of my reviews are sponsored, and sometimes I am given a review copy. But more often my reviews are done on products & services I’ve purchased myself.
Paid reviews were done with the same consideration as non-paid content and reviews. I’m known for my candid style, and am just as quick to tell you what NOT to use as I am to recommend resources I find incredibly helpful.
The content here may or may not contain affiliate links, which means that I am paid for referrals to certain sites or products. Regardless of whether I’m compensated or not, I will never promote or recommend a product that I wouldn’t use myself.
ClickNewz contains my honest opinion and thorough reviews, and I wouldn’t risk losing you as a reader by promoting anything that doesn’t meet my own standards. Affiliate links are simply a way for me to make a career of writing content on a topic I am passionate about – and doing it at no cost to you.
I’m always interested in reviewing products, or discussing advertising & sponsorship opportunities. Contact me if you would like to make a proposal!

Thanks Gregg
Great to hear from you!
You should drop me an email – I’d love to hear what you’re up to these days, how business is going at 7th Pixel, etc.
Follow me @lynnterry on Twitter.
35… WOW… I thought you were a lot younger honestly. Damn. Nice
.
It must’ve been a good feeling when you could finally quit your job and do this online thing, full-time?
Younger, huh? I should update my photos
They were taken last Feb actually. Anyway, I quit my last job in 1996 to start my first business – which was a local business. I worked online by early 1997 but focused mainly on putting offline (local) businesses on the internet.
But yes, it was awesome! My last job was as Unix Sys Admin… and I while I loved my job, the office atmosphere and total lifestyle package was not ideal.
Follow me @lynnterry on Twitter.
Yeah… you’d better. It’s not cool, tricking people like that
.
Working 8 hours a day in a sweaty office and building someones business vs working at home and deciding whenever you want to work and building YOUR business. Yeah… #1 doesn’t sound very interesting for sure
.
I used to be a logistics coordinator. Boring job, long hours and stressed out boss. Terrible. I love the freedom. I wouldn’t be able to work for a boss anymore.
Sent you an email back btw. Just so you know

Just came across ClickNewz; I just added you on twitter and a few others and added you to my rss reader. Lots of great content, even I have been able to get some great tips. Keep up the great work, Lynn.
I just came across your site tonight. I’ll be following you on twitter and grabbing that e-newsletter. I can’t wait to read more of your stuff!
I am looking forward to follow you on Twitter.
I found a comment from you in Twitter Revolution by @CoachDeb
Very interesting blog for Internet Marketing tips. How often you update this site?
Hi Lynn
I love listening to you on the podcast. I bought a acer mini laptop after listening to you on the podcast. I love it. I am new to internet marketing but I have big dreams. Thanks.
P.S. I have problems with my video to show up on ustream. Ustream reads the camera on the laptop and you can hear my voice when I record but my video is not showing in the video window. Any suggestions?

Congrats Lynn, You are everywhere,like god !! I know it’s difficult to reply to everyone and i know almost everyone wants a response from you..right!!
Well i am not bad at English, and i trying to getting it better day by day but i know still there is a lot to learn.What do you think? please Tell me! ~Vicky.punne4e
Hi Lynn,I think i just tweeted you the wrong way… I have been following you on IMTW, like your common sense business approach and very interested in starting up passive income web sites. Do you show your clients / students some of the same exact methods you have been using over the years to product income?
Hi Lynn, your blog is really very instructive and helpful.
I really enjoy reading your articles. Great work.
Lynn,
I just wanted to say I love your blog and the content you’ve added and keep adding.
However, I think the most important aspect of your blog is the complete honesty that keeps coming out whenever you write. It’s really refreshing in this hyped-up online world we all attempt to succeed in.
Don’t Ever Change!
Sincerely,
Neil
Hi Lynn ~
Your post was very moving (I’m with Tracy on the tears…) Grandmothers hold a special place in our hearts. My grandmothers have passed on too, but one of them told me, my siblings and cousins that she would be riding a pink cloud after she died. It is amazing how that simple comment has kept her memory so alive in my heart (not that I could ever forget her). The combination of a gorgeous pink sunset or sunrise and the memory of her make it a perfect moment. She had a yellow Mustang in the 1970′s when she herself was in her 70′s! She was a very spunky, independent woman that I admired greatly. Maybe your grandmother is up there too – riding the pink clouds?
I find you over and over again here and there, not by name or avatar, but by your attractive titles and content you create. I appreciate it and wish you all the best.

No problem, just a friendly reminder
Wow, Lynn, Mary did a great job interviewing you, and just LOVE the topic. You hit the nail on the head, as in it takes time, patience, know thyself, and some roll up the sleeves get down and dirty work…to find your passion, your stride with it, and how to monetize it well. So hopeful as I tread this path that others have gone on before me, that Yellowbrick road!
Best,
Mary

“2. When leaving a blog comment, use the URL field to link to something on your own site or blog that specifically relates to the topic of the post you are commenting on. Keep the related discussions connected!”
I’m not sure I understand how to do this – many blogs and forums don’t allow you to set anchor links, but may allow links in the http://www.etc format. I get how this might get more visitors to your site, but would this also create an inbound link? Or is there some coding thing that I don’t get to do the anchor link in the forum or blog post correctly?
Follow me @Jeanettehauser on Twitter.
Hey Jeanette,
Yes, it is an inbound link as long as it is a live hyperlink – meaning you can click on it.
