    Hey guys, I just verified my PayPal and now I wanna start making money on the internet but to be honest I don't know how, I'm only 15 and I'm an amateur at this category. So if you know any sites or you can give me any tips on how to start doing them. :)

    Thank you in advantage and happy holidays!!

    Your age is going to be a huge barrier, as most services (even web hosting services) require you to be 18 or older. 18 is the age in which you're legally allowed to enter into a contract (better known to you as a service agreement.) That means you can't join an affiliate program, you can't use Adsense, and god knows what else.

    BUT -- there's hope. If you can get a legal guardian to participate, you might be able to work at a freelance website under that website's version of a worker's permit. Signatures and faxes will be required.

    You might also work under someone who is already making money on the internet.

    It is a problem that you are under 18. However, if your parents are willing to participate in your online marketing project then it might just work.

    Try searching this forum, there is a ton of opportunities to choose from. You could try blogging. It is an easy way to get started, and it is not very expensive.......

    Start with a Free Hosted service like Squidoo, Hubpages, or Blogger. Write something. Join a few affiliate networks and adsense. Learn about keyword reserach.

    And don't believe most of what you read in the forums.

    The most important thing you can do is ALWAYS think of the customer/visitor first. Everything you do should revolve around solving problems for customers/visitors. Traffic, sites, all those things do not matter if you an not recognize the needs of the market.

    I was around your age looking to do the same thing you're doing, and I would have to say the best advice I can give you is to never give up. I worked for 8-9 months on a blog of mine which didn't earn me much money but a bit, and I realize now if I had just stuck with it for a few more months I would have been earning a decent amount of money. So whatever you do, think of a topic you're really interested in and create a website for it, post up and update it daily (easier if you're running a blog) try to give it a unique design, and just keep drawing traffic. I guarentee by the time you're 17 if you put in some good effort, you'll be earning some decent $$$ daily

    Thanks a lot guys for your advices and useful tips. :) I saw that there are lots of Logo contests in the Contests section so I'm thinking of learning how to become a pro photoshoper even if it may take from months to years. :)

    Hi, hmm if you are just starting out then there are a few options to start making money online. However eventually you are going to want some start up cash. I have a website with a free report (no opt in required) that could help you get some start up cash to purchase domains and hosting and such. I will try to PM the link to you since I am not allowed to send links. If anyone else wants this free report please feel free to send an email to gclunis0304 (at)gmail(dot)com. Again the product is 100% free, no opt in required and this is not an affiliate link, it is something I wrote to help newbies out.

    Hey,

    I just signed up for a few sites and have earned $100 from them in a week. PM me if interested. They are not PTC or GPT sites either.
