 <description>&lt;p&gt;With great difficulty.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As you and I discussed this morning, people won&#039;t pay for IP, but they&#039;ll pay for a consultant to explain IP to them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ways to monetise web presence:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Use the brand to get consulting work.
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sell a hugely successful book: hundreds of thousands or millions of copies.  See the 4 Hour Work Week.
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Generate traffic of millions of hits a month and sell advertising or merchandise.  See 1% of websites.
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Come up with a site that lots of people want to pay to be part of.  They won&#039;t pay much and it needs to be VERY compelling.  See The Sims.
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Invent a killer app.   See Skype.
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;...um that&#039;s about all i can think of&lt;/p&gt;
