I had a few people recently asked me what is required to be a Dot Com Mogul. I assume they’re asking because they want to know if they can call themselves Dot Com Moguls as well. To be honest, I haven’t really thought about it, nor had I laid down any rules to obtain Mogul status. Now that I’m getting a few questions about it I figure it’s time to lay out a few ground rules. So here they are.
To be considered a Dot Com Mogul you must meet all the follow requirements.
- Your income is made from the Internet
- The minimum Internet income level is $10,000 per month (you can not add income from other sources to hit this $10K level)
- You have no jobs outside of the Internet
- You have a personal blog with your name as the domain name
- Your blog must be updated at least once per week
- A Google search of your name must be at the #1 spot
- You must be willing to help dot com mogul wannabes
If you meet the all the above seven requirements, then you can call yourself a Dot Com Mogul! If you don’t meet all the requirements and you’re calling yourself a Dot Com Mogul, then remove the title now!
