- These are the major legal issues to be aware of if you are starting a business in the blogging space.
Project 24 is a product of Income School LLC. Results mentioned are not typical. The trademark “Project 24” refers to the goal of some people to create a successful business in 24 months, but is not a promise or guarantee of that success. Many online businesses fail because, like any business, it requires hard work, skill, and dedication. Before making business decisions, consult financial and legal professionals licensed in your jurisdiction. This video may contain affiliate links.
Covering everything all the way down to the legal aspects of things. There truly isnt a step missed when making videos. Thanks, guys.
you guys are awesome..... i love how you just break character (and geek out) on silly stuff you do while videoing.
You guys should continue to do a mix of legal and marketing videos you all can get more clients to hire you as a intellectual property attorney as another option.
Awesome advice!! Not much new here for me as I've been an entrepreneur with multiple companies in the last 12 years. However, these are all tips EVERYONE needs to know if their starting a business, a side hustle, really any project to make money outside the normal 9-5 grind.
Man, I love Income School
Pay your bills, don't borrow money, make a good product, treat customers nice good advice
If he passed the Bar, he can give legal advice! Thank you for having him on.
This is some quality info! More videos about stuff like this please!
Thank you so much for your advices. In Brazil the government has a lion that eats 27% of your revenue. It is hard to accept this, but there is nothing we can do. Cheers 👍👍👍😊😊😊
Really nice to have such great advice for these complex issues!
Thank you guys.
I am an accountant and I can only agree with the gentlemen! mostly we get the same money as the clients themselves earn during the time. it is a 1: 1 exchange and not a rip off. it is really important to have a bank account just for the company! the accountant also has to find out the private expenses and will calculate it! I have clients who pay 100 $ more every month because they don't understand that they should pay for their breakfast and lunch with a different bank card! that is really stupid!
Thanks guys. Starting small it is easy to forget these "little" details.
Awesome video guys. More Income School vids please. Make em twice per week! :)
We're working on moving that direction\
You guys are amazing.. I have learned a lot of useful and practical tips from you guys... keep it up
Amazing video! I've been watching a lot of you guys after the interview with Doug. Totally appreciate your perspective on the topic.
privacy policy starts at 9:50 ... thanks... can't wait to do project 24... saving my bucks
Fantastic content, fellas, as always. Thank you!
Comment on the tax thing, my ex-mother-in-law said she estimated what the next year taxes would be and then put that amount in a IRA or something similar and then she'd earned on that money, just like the IRS does, lol. Good advice from this lovely lady.
Great video that other people won't talk about! Thanks yall!
Thanks for you sharing these information. :) extremely insightful and valuable!
Brilliant, honest advice and who could wish for more?
Thanks for the info. I can't wait to get started with niche site school
Just love you guys.... Thanks for sharing..🙏
Each country has their own separate business and tax laws, if building an online business I still would seek advice from a Barrister / Attorney and a good Tax Accountant, especially as that online business or blog starts to grow. You could do a separate video on the accounting side, just to highlight that there are some expenses that you are allowed as you highlight one of them fuel that is an allowable expense, printer ink is also another. A different account just for taxes would be a great idea.
It is the little things that can often seem to get overlooked and forgotten about until it is too late. Again that was highlighted when Jim stated he faced a $50k tax bill. Simple measures of good business practice can go a long way between success and failure, due to waiting too late to file a tax return or overlooking something you could have claimed for which need to be done in the tax year concerned with that expense.
How could anyone give you guys a dumbs down with such good advice? They must not not be paying attention to what your saying. Anyway thanks good information and opinions will give you guys and good check mark and will be checking out your RUclips videos more. Thank man good work guys. Super helpful opinions thanks.
Enjoying these videos gentlemen. Keep it up.
More great advice--thank you!
Holy Cow! Another AMSOL grad! Inaugural class here!
Do u have any info on legality of images. Eg can I use some of the images from a products site that I am promoting?
jez warren-clarke You MUST have permission from them otherwise they are in a position to sue you. They probably won't mind but without permission you shouldn't be using the image.
That's exactly right.
@@IncomeSchool what about RUclips videos for an affiliate marketing website?
Can I use RUclips videos to show the product, its features, how it works, etc. without problem?
P.S. same question for manuals. Can I use manufacturer's PDF manuals to further inform the customer?
I'm glad I'm a subscriber, you guy's alway's have good info.
Original video-Great thank you
Awesome information! Thank you.
Great video, lots of important info. Especially on the thievery of the IRS.. Yikes
Fantastic legal info! Thanks guys
I have a question, So if i don't have an LLC what does someone enter in for the amazon/affiliate earning disclaimer? On your niche blog Improvedphotography you acually state its an LLC below....
Improve Photography LLC is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC affiliate program. This means we are financially compensated for linking to products on Amazon.com.
We also participate in a number of other affiliate programs, such as Commission Junction, Share a Sale, Clickbank, Lumenzia, and others.
We receive financial compensation for linking to these sites.
Great content as always.... I see 100k subs for 2018 that's if you guys upload more vids and go more in depth
doubt it
I created this new channel because I wanted it to solely focus on passive income and ways to make money while working a full time job. On my other channel I've been researching for months. I have watched and subscribed to so many people, but you two are the best I've come across. I am all about being authentic and you are the first duo to make me feel this side income isn't spammy unless you make it so. The authenticity speak is what made me subscribe.
As I continue watching your videos your content is just mind blowing. You give so much away and are able to break it down in a keep it simple, stupid, kind of way. As soon as I can in the coming weeks I will absolutely be investing in your course. I've been invited to many and paid for none. You will be my first. Thank you for putting it together because you already give us so much here that I can't imagine what's in store there.
Good video. Learned a few things I did not know.
#subscribed This info is great. Love you guys.
Thanks for the info! Very helpful :)
I have just bought a site with "Health Wellness Guide" in url, that's my sites name.
I found no live trademark in USPTO database.
Can it cause legal/trademark issue in future? Or, should I change the url?
Thanks.
Is it okay to take information from another website but publish it in a different format? Part of my website is going to have sports players ranking page.
So I have an information based blog. I post stuff about health and psychology. I got the information from magazines, and textbooks and I just rephrase it. Should I cite it? I don't see educational RUclips videos citing it.
Shae Lee I would think that some type of source citations to give credit where credit is due.
So you should only pay attention to legal side of blogging once you earn a lot of money? I am a beginner and just got approved on Adsense and I was wondering if I should take anything into consideration? Like I literally haven't put my attention into this kind of things.
2:26 “You could be funding the Kickstarter!” HA!
what are the legalities regarding ai blog posts given its plagiarism free and you disclaim its not entirely from you.
Hi, long time watcher here, just recently subscribed. First of all, love your channel. I've got a question: If my chosen keywords (3-4 word long-tail) and several of its LSI's are only displaying results from Amazon, eBay, and various youtube videos/social media + other smaller webshops, would it be a good opportunity for me to rank or this keyword? How well do I stand against these high DA shops? Thank you very much.
Really good info. Thanks
How about those people copying and rewriting my blog? What will I do with those guys?
You can send them a Cease and Desist and Take Down notice, either via email or regular mail. Do a Whois search to find out who owns it and where the domain was registered. If they have private registration, you can contact the proxy to report it. They often host their sites with the same place they registered their domain name, so you can also report them to that company.
I did that several years ago when someone had copied and pasted my articles on their site. I found out it was hosted by Yahoo, so I sent an email to Yahoo with links to my site and links to their plagiarized articles. By the next day, Yahoo had taken their site down. It was nothing but a parked page. Apparently, Yahoo has zero tolerance for plagiarism. lol
Videos to be filed under boring but important. Thanks for the post :)
Real good videos guys ! i love it ! But i am surprised that you never talk about the problems with Amazon images Products and their TOS. I read about more and more affiliate website that receive warning by amazon to not use products images and not host them. Some are already banned. can you give advice about that and what is your opinion about thi big issue ?
What do you think about using a Delaware LLC to run niche sites ?
I would love if you could make a video about YMYL websites.
If somebody would f.e. write about mental health issues but wasn't a doctor. Could he/she research, study and write about those mental health issues. Perhaps give advice's that are medically proven to work, write about symptoms and so on?
So i got a question what if i don't live in the states? Will my international website with its amazon affiliate reach the people in America if i produce american focused content?
Yes. About half of our members live outside the US and many write to a US audience.
@@IncomeSchool oh wow! I'm beginning my blogging adventure this December.
Can't wait to join project 24.
Thanks alot for the tips guys
Good stuff guys......thanks
Awesome!!
Thanks for the info! What in your opinion is a "significant amount of money" as mentioned in this video?
There's not a hard line in the sand for how much is a significant amount of money. When you're making enough (and people can tell you're making enough) that you're worth trying to sue, people will find a way to try and sue you. If your sites are making you more than $100,000 per year, then maybe you should start thinking about taking legal precautions, like forming an LLC. Does that help?
Great video!

Hey guys! Thanks so much for this video! Really helpful...I am an interior design and I wanted to start a blog about design and home decor. I know that if I want to write a post about someone's house and use their photos I need to ask permission, but if I am reviewing a product like artwork or decor from retail vendors like West Elm, do I need permission to use the photos on their webpage? Thanks so much for your great advice!
You always need permission to use photos created by other people. Many times they won't care if you're helping sell their products, but if you use it without permission you could be asked to remove it later.
Thank so much!
some business account for entrepreneurs? Advice?
So as a sole proprietor is it best to have an EIN number or it doesn't really matter?
Josephine Jacobs - Is get one. You’ll use it pretty often when signing up for stuff.
Any advice for free images ?
I guess using a small letter 'f' is out of the trademark question.
Pictures on the internet (google images) I use for my blog . Is that okay ?
I purchased a domain with the word "Lego." I got that letter, by email, to transfer the domain to them. It was fun. Cost me $10 though
Hey guys . I know in USA you guys have to pay taxes but everywhere else in the world taxes on affiliate commisions for digital products dont have to be paid by affiliate marketers. Would you still recommend book keeping for us?
I think any business still needs to keep their books. It's up to you how you do it and how detailed you keep them, but you need to know how much you earn, what your costs are, where you're spending money, etc. For a niche site, it's pretty simple, but it's worth it to keep that information.
Excellent. Can you tell me how you keep the information ? Do you just copy paste into your chosen program or do you need screenshots?
This is an area where I am not doing a very good job
An-Attorney's-Guide-to-the-Legal-Side-of-Blogging.com-thanks-for-the-tips.com thanks guys!....*jokes*
If you want to collect Im bankrupt ! YEY
lol I am an attorney now I nich market
Yea tesla paid 75k dollars to buy that name so i guess u can't use it freely for your blogger needs XD
Dude domain names are NOT cheap 😥😥😥😥
um yes they are... Domain names are cheap, but hosting can be costly. You need to find a good host, and I've found Wordpress.com is fairly inexpensive to use. I totally recommend! Although I know the Income School guys recommend BlueHost; which is probably great too.
How about move to country with less tax. Trump is building the wall so you can't get out.
Yes...In Kenya we are charged zero tax from such online ventures
