    The Truth About Making Money Online!
    Making Money Online is very possible and quite a few people do it for a living. My opinion is that most people believe online programs are, “get rich quick” schemes. This couldn’t be further from the truth. If you are willing to work moderately hard you can make a nice living at it although most times it takes persistence and perseverance. It can happen, in a short amount of time and without excessive efforts but for the most part this is the exception rather than the rule.

    There are a few things you must know to make money online. You must know your target market. You must know your competition and most of all, you must know yourself. As with public speaking, making money online can be easy, as long as you are passionate about your subject. It can be fun and profitable, but lacking these two characteristics you will soon lose your interest and determination.

    It is not as easy as some may think. Making money online is similar to making a traditional income in the fact that you will be earning your pay by providing a service or product to people. It is not get rich quick; it's a business that requires an investment; an investment of your time and of your money. You can earn generous amount of money as long as you keep these thoughts in mind.

    What makes making money online different than most traditional jobs is that you can work anywhere, at anytime. You chose where or when you want to work. You can work in your pajamas at home or you can wear a business suit and work in a fancy office. You are in total control. This is what makes making money online so enticing to many people. It is also very different than traditional businesses because the speed of information transferring around the internet is instantaneous. If you are an online tutor you can be sitting in your pajamas at home, never having to waste time and gas traveling. You can also make a nice passive income if you chose to do so, but keep in mind that it doesn’t just happen as some people think. First you must build your business.

    Now having said all that, here are some of the positives. Making $500 a day can be quite normal and you can get started very quickly, but you must know the right techniques. It really couldn’t be easier than it is today.

    It will give you all the time in the world to do what you want, when you want, and there are literally thousands of ways to do it. Just do a search online and you will find thousands, perhaps millions of different businesses that make money online. The last time I did this I got 173 million hits. You don’t have enough time to research them all! I don’t think you want to waste your time doing that. You get my point.

    Out of all the ways to make money online one of the best ways is affiliate marketing. There are also many scams out there so be careful. If you go to Clickbank you will see thousands of affiliate programs to sell. In my opinion Clickbank.com is the best place to find affiliate programs on the internet. You will find the opportunity available to you for extremely profitable ventures and with very little outlay on your part. Also it is popular with most people because you don’t have to create your own products.

    There are many programs that will teach you to sell affiliate programs but beware of any that charge you a stiff commission. They promise you can make millions on the internet then charge you like 10 thousand dollars to coach you. I was taken in once. Yes they coached me but after my coaching sessions ran out they didn’t want to know me. Take the money and run was there motto. They ran with my $10,000! You have no idea how violated that makes you feel when your money is gone and you still have no income. It all sounds so good at first. So take my warning and heed my advice. If the program costs a lot of money turn around and run the other way! Beware!

    I did find a great program that cost me only $77. It taught me how to promote affiliate programs and put money in my pocket. It was complete with many E-books to learn from and many videos that taught me the business. They don’t have to charge a lot of money because they sell their program over and over and make a lot of money I am sure. There is much information in their program that can be learned without breaking the bank. They have helped a lot of people I am sure, including me.

    I have been doing this affiliate marketing for 6 months now and make about $25 a day. It hasn’t come without study and application and I am sure if I can do it, anyone can do it. It just takes a little application and determination. And I know my income will increase the longer I keep at it. You can do it too. Just don’t put any pressure on yourself to earn but learn all you can and apply that to your marketing program and you will find that it’s not as hard as you think.

    So good luck and God Bless and remember, “YOU CAN DO IT”!!!!!!!!!

    So what does everyone think? I'd be interested to hear your opinion.

    Yes I believe that I should scale up the effort that's for sure. As with any type of sales it's a numbers game isn't it?

    But never take for granted. It's internet folks. It can disappeared in no time. If tomorrow your affiliate program changes rules or shut down, you can be with zero the next day. But yes, you can do it. I do $10K-$12K/month myself working...

    I am glad that people like you share their “common sense” with us; In this world full of scams, virus and get rich quick ideas, it is good to know that people like you still there, thank you for your article, it is really nice.

    In my opinion the first step to start a business on line, it is to find something that you feel passion for, not like it, not enjoyed, it has to be deeper than that, you must love that particular thing that you are planning to do online, other ways the endless work hours, days and years that will take in order to make a living from it, will destroy you half way, and the only thing that will keep you going will be that love and passion, that you feel for that particular thing that you are planning to do online.

    In my case was simple, I love my country, I love my culture and I embrace my heritage, so talk about Peru it is what I enjoy the most.

    What do you feel passion for?

    Making money online is indeed possible, but there are so many scams about, it is hard for the newbies to separate the genuine from the fluff

    Good post! It's important to approach online businesses like any traditional business - with focus and determination and the mindset that it won't be easy. The old adage 'if it were easy, everyone would be doing it' is so true. And if everyone did it, it would be less and less profitable. Earning a consistent dollar amount is tough, and when you can do it, you've found a system that works. Now take that system and multiply it/scale it. Once you have a repeatable system, you can outsource a lot of it and grow your business dramatically, but that too brings it's own challenges.

    Continue to treat this as what it is, a business, and plan and execute. You'll grow this puppy. 6 months from now you could be posting about your $500/day income, in fact that is what I'd hope to see! Work smart, work hard, and work often!
