Look at all Free Bonus Stuff you'll get. The wolves croon... After all, wouldn't this Free junk ( I mean, These Fabulous, Marvelous, Life-Changing Bonuses) cost you more than what you're buying!

How can you lose with my no questions asked, money-back guarantee? The wolves ask sweetly.

Ahh. The money-back guarantee? Why doesn't guarantee take away their profits. If they're selling junk?

Simple. They understand people. They know why you buy. They know you can't tell useless from useful. Even better, you'll wait too long to make a return. It's a fact that with info products vast majority of buyers don't look past first few pages.

Then scammers, uh, wolves, put pressure on you. They appeal to your emotions of loss, fear and greed. Remember, they know people.

The tactic they use?

The old take-away. One of slickest trick in book.

They make their offer sound too good to be true. But before you can dwell on that... They take their offer away. They trot out old time limit gimmick. Goes something like this.

But you can only get this deal - if you buy today! You only get my personal help if you buy now. Or they use -- specials are only good if you buy by Midnight... Buy, buy Baby.

IF you're an internet newbie. If you're an inexperienced business person. If you're at end of your rope. If you're desperate. If you're looking for a mentor.

You'll buy. Yes you will. You don't know better, yet. And you've been played like a piano. So you buy.

Yep. That old wolf, all gussied up to look like a rubber tree, done got your trust, your money and that wolf's done gone.

That rascal done sold you a Wolf Ticket. And you didn't even get taken out to dinner first...

Buy, buy Baby. By, By.

* Peel Back Search

Let's say that you've used X-Ray technique and found 400 links. One of those links (e.g., http://www.host.com/group/members/mybio1) points to a corporate site on which several individuals have their biographies. Of course, you can guess that if this one biography matches your needs, there might be other biographies with similar qualifications.

At this point, you can use Peel Back technique. This technique takes one result from previous two searches and drills down into site. It not only reduces amount of time you spend looking at each biography, but it also bypasses any specific walls in place that prevent you from prowling site (e.g., a 403 browser error).

Look at 'members' path in URL. There may be other members of group inside that folder. To take a look, "peel URL back" until it reads http://www.host.com/group/members. In hopes of viewing a list of pages, you press Enter key. Instead, you get '403 Error Message' that tells you that you're forbidden from viewing directory. This usually happens when Web server is setup to prevent 'directory browsing' and there are no default pages (e.g., index.html, default.html, etc.)

To resolve this, you peruse directory indirectly. You already know that biography page is on 'host:host.com' and you know that there is a folder named 'members' in URL. Using this information, you can go to AltaVista and perform an X-Ray search using 'host:host.com AND url:members'. This will return all pages on 'host.com' with 'members' in URL. Viola!

--- Becoming Proficient ---

It is important to use and understand techniques presented so that you can become a proficient Internet Sourcer. The best way to exercise your new talent is to locate various job descriptions on numerous job-posting sites. Prepare a set of keywords from job descriptions and execute various search techniques. Try to fine-tune search to acquire as many specific and relevant resumes as possible.

Additionally, it's important to follow a set of guidelines to provide a professional presentation when looking for and performing various Internet Sourcing opportunities. A subset of some of these general rules is listed below to give you a jump-start on your new career:

- Don't search to find out what you're searching for. To make better use of your time, make sure that you have a solid grasp of target search and expected results.

- Many times, when performing search, keywords at target links are available as used in search keywords. In other cases, however, you'll have to translate search criteria to find most possible returns.

- Start with a small search string that returns a large number of pages. By tuning search iteratively, your string grows and number of returns decrease. Make sure that as string grows, it doesn't become convoluted or contain misspellings. However, also take into account misspellings as some words are misspelled in common ways at target Web sites.

- Assemble your resources to ensure that you can perform a successful search. These resources include bookmarks to search engines, a method of tracking searches, keywords for target search, a list of competitors and their URLs, association sites, universities, company profiles, industry resources, and sites specific to a given discipline.

- Understand and use your techniques for effective and efficient searches. Use advanced search services at various search engines and understand how to apply each technique to each engine.

- Continue working with and learning new search techniques---it is imperative to your success as an Internet Sourcer. Also, visit recruiter-specific sites to read on their latest trends and requirements so that you can stay up to speed with industry.
