Dear Friend:
Welcome to the Create Income Streams website, offering information on using the World-Wide Web to enhance your income.
I am a long-time computer scientist and web entrepreneur. “Web entrepreneur?” Yes, and for years a spectacularly unsuccessful one. I gained most of my knowledge by making mistakes and listening to other people’s mistakes, just as you are probably doing.
I am devoting this site to reviews of the things I’ve tried, what worked, what I liked or didn’t, and what I did right, and wrong. I’ll point you to sources of information that can help you speed up your learning curve.
What is a niche website? Here is a (sarcastic) tour of a website created by Adam Short, who teaches his e-commerce techniques through his Niche Profit Classroom membership site.

Resources
Minicourses
Where do the minicourses come from? Most of the material is publicly available on the Web, so why sign up for a minicourse? Several reasons:
- We find and select the material so you don’t have to wander around the web searching for it.
- We put the material in order so you won’t be frustrated reading material without the background for it.
- We break up the material into bite-sized chunks. If the material were dumped on you all at once, you’d likely be overwhelmed, put it aside for later, and never get around to it.
- We send you more information every few days, so you won’t just forget about the topic. The big enemy of success is your attention wandering before you have completed something.
