What i'm struggling with is that, when you make a living with adsense or other advertising programs, how can you start up a company for only that? It's not like you are selling a product or something... And even if you have a company and someone asks, what does your company offer or sell? Then, you cannot give a decent answer because the company does not sell or offer anything. And if you make a living of adsense, but don't run a company, how does that work? You don't have a 8-5 job, but you also don't have a company. But still, you earn a living with it. How do you report your income in that situation? And what do you say your job is when someone asks?
Official status and Job title Webmaster and Publisher Most use AdSense to supplement our incomes and do not live soley from it.
You don't want to teach ugly of line people... who don't know about online marketing. software engineer - its best answer that only they know ..lol
I'd run a small shop or anything here. In my country the officals are not thick enough to understand computer and stuff. I will get trouble if I tell the truth since they will tend find anything wrong with it. But since I am not making a huge 4 to 5 figure monthly then I won't bother
Yes we are selling a product: Advertising. I do have (99% of) a company. One of the things it sells is advertising space on websites we publish.
Only problem with saying that is the next question is "really, what's the URL".. then you get "..and how exactly do you make money from it ?" .. then you have to explain to them how adsense works.. then, next thing you know it you're banned because your friend was trying to 'help' you earn a few bucks by clicking on your ads all day long..
If all you do is put adverts onsites you haven't built i'd say publisher. But I design/develope and run the adds so i'd classify myself as a Developer/ Online Marketer,Publisher
