Re: SBS Conspiracy or Busy Making $$$$

www.smallbizserver.net
This sight is run by Mariette Knap and Marina Roos, "the Magical M&Ms". Both are SBS MVPs. This site was free for a very long time. Mariette and Marina both had other gigs. The more they did, the more folks wanted, so they made it a full time endeavor and as such it became a subscription site as well. Some other MVPs are also contributing there.

But Marina still posts here from time to time as do others who contribute to their site.

This same thing is true in all other MS areas...not just sbs

and www.sbsmigration.com Jeff Middleton's Swing Migration website.

I'm not really aware of any other sites

Besides the other excellent replies from MVPs and others all I can say is if
your eyes are truly open you'll find many responses in here from MVPs and
others of your peers. I'm not sure what you're referring to when you say
"most of the MVPs have pay for help sites." Can you provide specific sites
where they are asking you to pay for help?
