    Ever since the start of Global economic recession more and more people are getting attracted towards online money making. Do you think US financial crisis is the only cause of such trend? In Asian region particularly in India the growth of Broadband and Internet accessibility has doubled since 2008. Therefore so many talented rural people are finding their ways to earn online, from article writing, ad placing, Online tuition and medial transcription etc. This may also be another cause for the increasing trend of Online enthusiasts. What's your views on such trend?

    I think the reason for this happening is due to the lazyness of the human race and them not wanting to do anything apart from click a button and gain money online. Many people think you can make a load of money online too by the fact that many users are on the internet and surf daily making a good place to try and get money without spending a lot of money yourself trying to get people to notice you apart from SEO building to get into Search Engines for your niche.

    Another contributing factor that I think might have given people a reason to do this is because the richest man in the world has made a lot of money due to the internet... such as online sales and such.

    These are really my thoughts on this...

    Well said.

    People have this misconception that making money online is as easy as updating their MySpace profile or checking their email. Most things on the web are set up to be very easy and user friendly for the lowest common denominator. It's a lot like gambling, or the lotto. Everyone seems to think they are "going to win it big" on a scratch off of for a buck.

    Ain't gonna happen.

    While porn, and many things online were this simply years ago. It is not like that anymore. You are seeing that knowledge, and technology are slowly raising the barrier of entry to the online business marketplace.

    Sure, there is always going to be someone with a ton of free time who will try to get by on the cheap or for free.... using a script everyone else is, content everyone else is, marketing to the same customers everyone else is, and trying to sell them like everyone else. However that's a fool's errand.

    If you want to make money, it takes money. I suppose if you want to invest a few hours a day for beer money that's possible. But most are looking for either enough to be self employed, or REAL money or a lifestyle.

    For those folks (i.e. not the beer money barons) it is going to take a lot of time, some money, and experience. Even if you are trying to simply make a better mouse trap off someone else's existing site or idea.

    When you start out in this business. Especially with no money. You are to trade off time in it's place. You simply need to come to that realization period. If you have some money to your name. You can speed up the process and ramping up. If you have no money, you will work much harder for FREE to generate similar results.

    If you have no money, and you have no time, or are unwilling to put in the time, then you are destined to fail. It is that simple. Online is no different then the rest of the world in regards to starting a successful business.

    I would say a lot of these trends are due to the fact that for some people a buck or two a day is a huge profit. So for them the internet is a cash cow (before cheap internet they had no way of milking the cow).

    Also when the economy crashed a lot of people got a lot of free time, and didn't want to spend much cash so they turn to free entertainment (youtube, free online games, etc). Eventually people will just naturally try to profit off these things.

    Another reason for the increasing trend of Online enthusiasts is because we are in the Information Age. My view of this trend is just starting.

    You're completely out of the equation dude.

    The online business is a tough learning curve, unlike selling bananas in the marketplace. Apart from that it's not just clicking a mouse button but it involves a lot more than that. It seems that you aren't very familiar with Online marketing are you?

    People resort to a state to which they get lazy and and are sick of the real world and make a living online. Pretty much it. Oh and that making a living online is sometimes a much better route for stay at home people.

    I think it is just the natural result of humans adapting to technology. The nature of the global economy is shifting, that is clear.

    But what the hell we can produce manufacture online.. or wholesale or retail.

    In normal life.. somebody produces onion somebody imports onion.. then there are wholesellers shops then there are retailers then there are consumers(they dont make any profit but burgain and save money). Everybody makes some profit on their portion. Production/manufacture import wholesale or retail

    But what i see online the only thing we can produce is content. Other then that its all shit bla bla marketing link building n visitor tracking
