The two sections in this book, are also found in the more comprehensive resource titled: "Advice and Cautions for Independent Publishing Authors" SECTION ONE: "Legitimate Opportunities for Authors" SECTION TWO: "How To Avoid Negative Online Publishing Experiences: Cautiously Marketing Your Intellectual Property" The revenue-sharing content website industry has grown into a multi-billion dollar a year online business. These are websites (sites) that offer interesting or needed information to readers who visit their online pages but who at the same time, sell advertising units, which appear as ads around each piece of content they display (i.e. articles, audios, photos or videos). This system can be very beneficial to content contributors but much of this depends on what websites one decides to register-with and the level of quality content submissions one has. In some cases, less-reputable or dishonest revenue sharing websites have done disservice to their contributors, by discontinuing revenue-sharing after gleaning massive amounts of content from them, by canceling contributor's memberships for bogus reasons or by unrightfully penalizing the revenue shares of members. In the chapters of this book, I address these types of issues and offer recommendations for choosing revenue sharing sites that can be beneficial rather than negative experiences for content contributors.
