    OK. But do any of you sell anything other than 'how to make money on the internet' guides ?

    Quick cash is good and I like it, who doesn't ;-)?, but you rarely make any money this way. I make around $2000/month solely from internet websites I own (this is not my main income source) however this did not happen overnight my some of my sites date back to the years 2002 when I started and I was stuborn enough to continue although no money were made for many months....

    I'm makin' some pretty good money between hosting and education leads, but I might have to get an actual job again since my girlfriend talked me into taking a trip to Ireland I can't really afford.

    So... enough money to eat rice & beef? Yes! Enough money to fly across the world? No! Not yet anyway :D

    Hello there...
    In my opinion, you can make big profits just by following your passions (your niche). My students are making nice profits with their websites and they follow their passions.

    I love to diversify my profits: Adsense, affiliate programs, sell my products, joint ventures, ebooks.

    Probably one of the best way to make money are joint ventures. I got $93,000+ in profits with just 2 contracts.

    I earn about 5 figures a month from just adverting offline, and a bit of online marketing! I really think marketing is easy, all you have to do is work consistently and try not to keep up with the Joneses!

    I just started marketing, and made $80 last week. I promote auctions via EPN. Granted, that's not much. However, I've been marketing while at work, and I haven't done it consistently. I'm confident I can make much more if I just stick with it.

    Sure... Some of us provide other services. Some SEO based, others Directories, Web Hosting, you name it. Keep in mind that DP (Digital Point Solutions) started as a programming company that made Billing Software for ISP's. Many of us that bought that product were part of a large support mailing list that later grew to a support forum, which later become what DP is now.

    Sadly the support and development of that product is now gone, but many of us in that industry still remain.

    the other 99.9% here lately seem to be scammers... Sadly.

    Seriously?

    If you aren't making money in this business, you aren't really trying.

    That being said, if you're promoting the "make money" niche and you aren't making any money yourself, maybe you're in the wrong niche... :rolleyes:

    Im a writer, where do you freelance? I haven't made any money from adsense yet lol, I just got accepted today, but the point of having my blog isn't to make money but to get my opinion out there to the public.

    I also have a guide on how to make money online but I do not sell it as its free. Actually its not a ebook or anything like that: its a simple site where one can learn to earn money online via different opportunities like freelancing, blogging, etc

    I also make some money out of freelancing like article writing or renting out my sig links. It's not that great but certainly much better than the minimum wage in my country.

    I promote the eBay affiliate program - its nice to get away from the "make money online" niche at times...but at the same time, the "make money online" niche is quite profitable, so I don't think there is anything wrong with promoting it...as long as you promote quality products.

    It has been very slow for me, I made 15.00 last year, lucky for me I have a full time job.:D But like anything you get out what you put into it. It seems that there are so many ways to make money on the internet and you just have to find one that you are comfortable with. At the moment....I have not found that niche yet.
