I have a lot to thank Pat Flynn of Smart Passive Income for. If you have read about my first four months in internet marketing, you will know that Pat’s blog was essentially what got me started. It has been a priceless resource for me and I am sure that it will continue to be.
This post is a way of me repaying Pat in part for what he has done for me – a way of saying “thanks for everything”. It also happens to be a very useful resource for you!
You will probably notice that I have missed out on some pretty major posts below, and that is because they are part of series. So, make sure that you check out Pat’s Niche Site Duel Hub and his Income Reports. Also, make sure that you subscribe to his Podcast – it is the only one that I always listen to.
There are a lot of articles here, so I have separated them into categories. Enjoy!

I really can’t say anything bad about Pat, he’s just the most transparent people on the web, I mean you really don’t have to buy any online courses on how to make money. He’s one of the few that actually do what they preach.
Tom Ewer says
Hey Wilson,
I couldn’t agree more. Certain people moan that he makes the majority of his money from SPI, which is true, but he also makes a perfectly reasonable wage from his other endeavours. More power to him, I say!
Thanks for commenting 🙂

Hey Tom, I was just surfing the web and came across this post (I remember we talked about it earlier), but I was surprised to see I didn’t even leave a comment! I feel bad about that!
Just wanted to, again, thank you for your support and for this wonderful piece you wrote, and how you broke everything down by category, that’s extremely helpful, even to me!
Thanks again, and Happy Holidays to you!
