Thought this thread may be interesting. This thread is for dp members aged 17 - 25. Maybe share since how long you been in the web business, and how you made your first dollar online. And for those who are comfortable with it(How much do you make monthly now)
I am 25 years old.. so at the max of this post I have been in the web business since I was 14. Earned my first dollars from selling a shopping guide website. For a lot of dollars, at the top of the internet boom.. Didn't have any traffic at all
Im 24 just. I dont make a set amount each month, it can vary from $xx to $xxxx. I made my first money from selling some text links on a website i had $3 a month on a PR2 site i started as a sub domain on websiteunited.com which has since gone bust.
I am a little under the age but i am 16 and i started my webmaster skills about 6 months ago. I now make about $100 a month. Nothing much but it is more then i had before
Are people from 15 years old also allowed to post here? As I'm a young web entrepreneur I think Well.. my experience.. you never get something when you don't work for it... Also.. invest before you will see earnings, and don't be scared of losing money.. if you want something and work too it, it will work (see hostgator.com.. it started by a university student who wanted some cash..) I know how to make more than 1500$ per month.. but I don't wanna make ebooks about it telling all those things.. those are my secrets Greetz
well 18 started making my first bucks online with selling photoshop tutorials on deviantArt but I first learned about all the other possibilitys here on dp
I'm 23, I made my first dollars online by designing a website for my family's business. Since then I have moved onto SEO and online marketing. I have 5 clients now on a monthly basis bringing in around $2,000 a month. Then anything else I pick up during the month is extra. I'm looking into selling my own items on a website and would just promote that myself. That way I have more control which is more of a key factor in any business I do now.
I'm 18 and have been buying domains since age 13. Since then i've experienced many interesting things; including selling a domain to john mccain's presidential commitee! Sold a domain to a guy in Norway once for $2K, it wasn't worth $100 and he still hasn't developed it. My pride and joy is my online forum though
Started buying developed and earning sites about 2 months ago from here on DP. I've just turned 20 and own a range of sites, earning anwhere between $150-300 per month. I've just started a forum which will be my main focus for the next 8 weeks or so untill that is off the ground.
How i started? Well i started by working for blog owners and made my first $100. Then with the $100, I bought a couple of proxy sites. Then advertised them in my school and on myspace. Made $400 using adbrite, google, link sales on proxies. Using the $400 i bought out some blogs Side Note: i need writers for my blogs I pay 50% adsense per blog post, pm me if you are interested.
Pointless - Adsense Per Post Brings in minimal money, let alone alot of effort to traffic. Your alot better off doing your own blogposts people, especially as theres better ways to earn than adsense.
well, lets look at this way. 1 Blog Post on my niche takes 1min. Traffic? I can get easily without trying. Its called SERP so thats no problem. Overall if you know what you are doing, 50% adsense on a decent blog with traffic can get you somewhere. He needs a place to start, i was just suggesting a path.
I thought I might as well share a bit too since I started the thread. I've been at it for a bit more than 2 years now. Earn my first couple bucks with dropshipping and now still going at it. I do a bit of other stuff on the side such as blogging but haven't been too successful with that so far. I make about mid $xxx currently average per month
Cool that wasn't considered a dig by the way. I can do you a few blog posts if it goes well i can do 100 per week
I have been doing online biz since i'm 18. My biz is doing scalping the forex market. I only earn $200/day from scalp the market.
Im 16 atm and have been messing around online for about a year now. I taught myself php while in school (while everyone else was playing halo) and dropped out shortly afterwards (best decision of my life). Now im freeloading off my parents and trying out various online ventures 12 hours a day. Life is good
I'm 16 years old (turning 17 in 3 months) and make on average $1900 per fortnight selling various consumer electronics on eBay. I usually markup products 95-100% to maximise revenue. It started out as a hobby, but quickly turned into a business. Right now, I'm negotiating with a supplier in China to supply me with custom USB flash drives which will be resold in retail outlets under my own brand and design.
