    Hi everyone,

    Just curious ... how did you make your very first $1 online? :)

    Would love to hear your experience. Mine (as I recall) was made during the paid to surf days back in pre 2000.

    If ebay counts, then that back in the late 90s. But for work or entrepreneurial stuff I guess it would have been through Google Adsense

    Adsense is my the very first payment that I have got. It was somewhat a hundred dollars in during around 2 years accumulation. My blogs are very small; I am attempting to increase content by posting at least one article everyday.

    I made my first dollar freelancing as a web developer. I developed my first site for someone else pro bono, and I was referred my first paying client based upon that. Since then, I have done many other things to earn money online, but what I have yet to do is build a solid business online. That is the ambition.

    Freelancing. Small job for $60. Easy but made me really happy and proud.

    I made my first $1 to $1000 by creating a product on the toddler market and the IM market.

    Nowadays, I just drive traffic into them and just focus on writing email copy for clickbank vendors and sometimes even their sales pages.

    My fist payment was from a few niche websites I set up with the ebay partner network, the commissions were far higher when the network started.

    My first $1 was for coding and designing a web template for a personal blog, in HTML 4.01, CSS and MS Paint. :) Ah, the memories! I was just out of high school at the time (2004).

    I made my first $1 online quite by accident. I was dabbling in creating websites and created a site where I recommended some Clickbank products. I surprised to receive the notifications that I had many sales because I had NO idea of what I was doing at the time. The site I created JUST HAPPENED to rank well in the search engines for a buyer's keyword.

    I made my first $1 here on digitalpoint forums with mobile phone precisely nokia 6630. That was 2008 or 2009 by selling ebooks tutorials.

    Nice to see real success from other internet marketers :)
    I started my first affiliate journal 2 years ago, at that time the GG is not as strict as today, sure.
    I did not even know what a seo is, just know the more backlink the higher ranking, then I tried my best to build link and the result is getting first sales. Today, this strategy is ripped! But its not ended with seo, now i turn to standing on other high authority website to get target traffic instead of building and doing seo for a regular website like the way I did in the past.
