Data Network Affiliates (D.N.A.), website datanetworkaffiliates.com, is a new and interesting work from home opportunity.  However it also appears to good to be true.  It is completely free to join and no fees are attached to it (although there is of course some optional fees)

It claims that it will pay people for the simple act of collecting the info of 20 license plate numbers and sending that info into the company.  For doing this you will be paid $2 for every month you do it.

It has also incorporated a MLM scheme enabling you to leverage your efforts and theoretically earn $100s, $1000s or even more for the simple act of collecting the license plate info.  This is achieved by earning $2 per person for each downline member who does the same thing as you “within their first 30 days of signing up”.   Here is where I would be careful, it appears that you only earn the $2 ONCE from each sign up, NOT MONTHLY.  I could be wrong but I can’t see any other reason for them to use the wording “within their first 30 days of signing up”.

The optional “Data Input Software Module” will cost you $29.97 monthly plus a set up fee of $97.  This is somewhat amusing as you are PAYING THEM to do their job for them! Genius!  I won’t talk about the software though as it doesn’t seem to offer any great advantage.

Now let’s assume that they are indeed paying the $2 per person PER MONTH and the “within their first 30 days of signing up” wording doesn’t mean anything.  So we are looking at the best case scenario.  Even with that the business ,in my opinion, is doomed to fail because who do you think will be willing to go to the trouble of collecting the 20 tags every month and sending that data in for only $2 ?  It’s not like you can collect 40 tags for $4 or 200 tags for $20, according to the website you get $2 for 20 tags or more.  So more tags doesn’t mean more money.

“But it isn’t just $2 because you get the MLM money from your downline” you may say.  Yes this is true, however you need to remember that SOMEONE will always be on the bottom in any MLM and if they are unable to get any downline for themselves do you think they will continue to do the work for a measily $2?  I don’t think so.  What do you think will happen when that person drops out?  The person above them will do the same, and then the same and so on.  You will have a matrix implosion for sure.

Therefore my prediction for this one is that it will have a great start as people join and there is all the hype etc.  There will be videos and testimonials flying around the internet of people making decent money in the beginning during the growth stage but a few months later when the growth slows down and no one new is joining then the people at the bottom who can’t find any referrals will give up and very quickly you will see the whole thing implode line by line.

Because it’s free to join it’s sure to enjoy a nice growth spurt but unless the company changes the model to ensure that the collecting of data ALONE is worth people’s time, then it’s sure to fail.

So in my opinion I wouldn’t bother with Data Network Affiliates D.N.A. as it doesn’t have any staying power whatsoever.  In my opinion it  is guaranteed to fail.  It’s not a case of if, but a case of when.

If you are looking for a great way to make money online (without any joining fees or MLM stuff) be sure to check out this great system.

You basically create websites and make money from selling the advertising on them or commission from sales generated.  You can even sell the websites for a lump sum if you want a quick buck, but the passive monthly income is nice.  You don’t need to buy the system above in order to do this, however if you have no idea what this is about or how to go about starting then the training kit above is an excellent start.  I currently spend most of my time pursuing this way of making money online as it doesn’t require recruiting, selling, pyramids or any hype.  Nor does it depend upon any fly by night company.  You make money from Google (or other established companies), who aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.  Many of these online MLM schemes can just shut down anytime they want and where does that leave you ?  Starting again from scratch with some other company whereby the exact same thing can happen.  That’s not for me anymore, I am building a strong online business now that isn’t going anywhere.  I make over $200 per month on autopilot using this method now and I plan to grow that every month as I build more and more sites.

Let me finish by saying DNA is by no means a scam in my opinion, it’s just a business that will not last.  Feel free to leave your comments about this work from home for free business opportunity below.  If you agree  or disagree with my prediction please let me know.  Do you think my reasoning is logical ? What is your opinion of Data Network Affiliates ? I’d love to hear other people’s thoughts on this.

Looking forward to your comments.

   Hello Cassandra,

   yes, they had one offer for cell phones, but was a mistake and they cancceled this. Dna has accepted that this offer was a wrong decision in company. Now they have another products.
   I became PRo for the same reason at first (cell phones services), but I`m stiil PRo now for another ofers that are there.
   I`m not saying that it is a only great opp on market, but who want to earn some money its good.
   Also, on DNA, as PRo member, now you can earn money with car tags. For every 20 car tags you receive 1 token , with up to $2 value.
   This is now DNA.
