So is it worth is to set up an account. How much more work will it be?

I have a MySpace account with no idea how to maximize its potential. I have a friend who apparently makes thousands a year on MySpace and need to seriously pick his brain. Any link suggestions for beginning to use MySpace?

I have a gal-friend who makes some fair money on Myspace, I think most of it is just her blog, Echos

How much should we except? I really have no idea? Is it more of a marketing tool? Or do some actually sell on their Myspace? Thankx for any and all help, Echos

MySpace is a marketing tool in the way that you build a friends list using a program, you sent out like 400 invitations a day and within a week you have a solid friends list you can promote on. How much money you make depends on how well you convert traffic to either clicks or sales on your site.

I have recieved a lot of friends and views but, mostly people wanting me to join their groups and purchase their products.

Thats so true, when they view my stuff, they in turn , require me to buy something of theres. Its has been a no win situation for me so far. Echos

Interesting to see how the ways to use MySpace have developed. I'm not a fan of it, personally, but that's a taste thing more than anything. What I do notice is a number of commercial entities do use MySpace for promotion. Whether it's really viable for anyone or anything that isn't a big name, I don't know.

Like selling things or articles?? Echos

Let me get this right myspace is a form of free advertising that will allow you to at least get the word out about your domain. How in the world is Myspace making money then? I am a firm believer that nothing in life is free. I really don't get it, please explain?
