The Good news:

You CAN make money/earn a living on the internet.

The Bad news:

1)You MUST put in the time & effort.Do not believe in programmes that promise you will earn big bucks without doing anything.It will be tough at first,but it will eventually be easier once you have mastered the necessary skills.

2)Do your research extensively,do not jump into anything unless you're 99% sure.

My personal advice: Look around,read up and arm yourself first with sound foundational knowledge about making money on the internet.This valuable information should not cost you a bomb.

I sincerely hope you have benefitted from this thread.

I would have expected some link or some palpable offer Smile

but bottomline, up to now, your thread is decent....we'll see later what comes up.
My opinion is that money can be made on the internet, but not without some work and some specific skills. I've heard so many people starting their own payable blogs and lost interest after a few months or so because it was really hard to advertise and the results were soooo slow. But I have also seen people who proved very constant and insisntent in what they wanted to achieve and they actually got those good results.
I guess, as in any tipe of job, it really depends on the person doing it.

I very glad to see that this thread is not another spam regarding an unknown link for the general public.
Recently I've started working for a freelancer website and I've found some jobs that are really easy and others that need you 4-5 hours a day.I believe that making money from the internet is the future.

I agree making money online is not easy. It takes patience and work. Nothing comes from nothing.

It possible to do, but one must be willing to put in the work. I have been pretty successful, but start up is always slow....and nothing is for free.

Oh....on the contrary, truthbetold.....the majority of internet work (data entry, filling in I don't know what, building websites etc) is FREE Smile

) It only pays a lot of effort Very Happy

But The fact is that one can make some good money if they stick to this and keep on developing themselves in this field, aybe building up a personal net of clients Wink

You can make decent money online, Some guys are making great money. But remember there are so many scam offering on the net. One should start by reading waht are the legit ways of making money online. You should give time to internet and learn to differentiate scams from legit opportunities. One of the best way to avoid being scammed is to never pay money to a website/companies in order to get online work. Most of the information is avaiable for free on net. I think best way of earning online money is to make your website/blog. Some time will be consumed in making of website and its promotion, but results are much more rwarding and long lasting. Thanx

I'm a writer and do some internet marketing around my business, management and coaching role (as well as training sessiuons that I run etc.).

My take on making money on the internet is that you have to be focused, consistent and creative first and expect your business to grow slowly second.

A bit like a real job then? Well, except that you can plan your own time (which can be a problem if you get distracted easily), you can do midnight stints instead of mornings, (my preference, as long as I do them) and you are your only boss - the buck stops with you (no excuses there then).

I feel passionately that there are great livings to be made on the internet if you put yourself about - and forums are a great way, if you add value as well.

So that's what I try to do.

Links to my website? Of course! I'm dedicated to a win-win for my clients who buy from me (providing me with a living) and the value they get from the products I sell, which certainly are not in the 'get rich quick mold' (it rarely works), and each of which have taken me 2-300 hours to create.

Hi --

There is no silver bullet, but there are a LOT of people who think there may be or honestly wish there was. And 'serving' that group of wishers has become very lucrative. The tell-tale sign is this: some offer that talks about how much money you can make, but never talks about a real product or service.

Bear in mind that a great opportunity for someone else might not be a good fit for you. Just like your 'dream job' might be someone else's nightmare.

The difference, I believe, is one of mindset. For many employees, they just want a steady paycheck. They may or may not enjoy what they do, but the money is there. For a home-business person, you must really believe in what you are doing, and you must provide real value for your clients/customers. It's okay to do a job 'just for the money' but a home-business will quickly crash and burn if it's based on that attitude. An employee mindset won't work well for a home-business.
