Whatever anyone says, start making QUICK cash online isn't easy without experience. So don't expect to do so. I recommend you learn all about what I call the internet economy. All kinds of advertising and just what is going on online. Learn what is scam and what is real. Read this experienced-people.co.uk/1042-top-ways-of-making-money-online/index.htm Both the good ways and the real stupid shit you can do is in there.
Back in during the internet boom, I was working at an auto dealership and had developed the website for the dealership. We got vehicle inquiry leads on all makes and models, so I would sell leads on the makes we didn't stock. Some of the big internet car buying services would pay for the vehicle leads. It was bringing in a couple hundred a month back then. It slowly fizzled out, but it was good while it lasted. I haven't done much to much money to make online since then...but now I'm back on a mission to cash in on some of this $$$ that's flying around out there.
Hosting and Web Design. Also sell ads on a music community site kinda like MySpace for music! Check out BurnJam.Com You gotta market HARD!
I started with nothing selling stuff on ebay, made crazy amounts of money and than decided to build alot of proxies, at the moment I have over 200 websites in circulation. There are alot of ways to make money online: Selling your own Products Affiliate Marketing Selling a Service Making Sites Its all about what you can do and where you think you can achieve the most.
1) freelancing, by far...I make 1/4 of what I make on my full time income with freelance. 2) affiliate sales via Squidoo 3) context ads (which suck), just to help break even for the cost of my domain names.
Was 13, made a site about little remote control cars, used Paypal and dropshipped the orders from Japan. I don't think adwords was really used back then, (or I missed it) so had to pay sites to advertise me (mainly forums). My site offered information on different types of cars, and a forum with about 5 members, lol. Someone would buy a car and some wheel replacements, they pay me about $45, I then purchase from Japan for $32 and customer gets them ;] Was really basic, luckily I didn't get ever get caught for import duties as I didn't know they existed. Was amazing money for me at the time, a few orders a week meant $20-30/week. Very simple business model. I didn't really have any money, so all the costs were minimal.
I was 12 or 13, and I had an InvisionFree forum about an online game. I found out about Adsense somehow and DP, and from there I learned how to monetize my forum and I started making money.
Six years ago when I was about nine years old, I got into graphics because I saw some people with really nice signatures and wanted to make my own. Then I got into web design. After I knew how to design web pages, I started to learn how to develop them. And now, at fifteen, I make money off graphics, web development, and logo creation.
Unless you are extremely lucky, there is almost no chance of making good money online fast. It takes time and a lot of efforts.
Here's what I've done since late May 2007: from online freelancing/web content writing: 816.47 from do-it-yourself GPT programs: 121.10 from cash-for-referral trades: 171.00 from selling virtual items: 124.45 grand totals for making money online: 1,233.02 As you can see, most of my money came from writing gigs. I'm wanting to get into affiliate marketing though, either that, or create my own digital product. As a side note, I have a blog about the philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein--I don't get any money for it, but it does get anywhere from 3-40 unique visitors per day. More importantly, the views tend to be 'targetted' in the sense that a significant portion of them either a) stay on the site for a couple to several minutes and b) post. I also have incoming links from other blogs in that area, so I'm pretty happy about it (considering nobody seems to know who Wittgenstein was ;-)
Wow, thanks for starting this thread as it kinda forced me to actually calculate how much I've made (that is, grossed) over the summer. I'm not too displeased with my efforts, although its really hard to compare it to what I would have made had I worked a regular 20-40 hr work week (I didn't, hehe) Being only 22 and in graduate school, a bit over 1200 isn't too shabby for just starting, I think.
Just started a new idea. Made about 200~ in the past two days, and I'm a relative n00b . Compare that to the measly $100 or so I earned over the whole summer...
