well i found out that it's very promising to hang around in the internet
making money online is one of the best thing i ever done
hahaa.. but so far, i'm only doing mylot
actually i'm quite odd with stuffs that connected with the internet
to be honest, i never do something on ebay
i'm just not sure with the internet things
but i'm kinda interested with blogging
i heard that some blogger got paid because there are some company that want to put advertising on their page
and the blogger got paid very hugeee .. XD
and so, i'm wandering ..

i'm completely blind with this thing.. LoL
thanks before !!

Hello, unuzzz.
I am not into the blogging thing. I have never tried it, because I would not know how to make money out of it. I do know how to create a blog and all, but I wouldn't know a way to make money with it. And, for what I have heard, you cannot make too much money out of it unless your blog is really great. Yes, there are some people who make an income out of it, but I don't think that it is easy. In fact, it must be pretty hard to make some good money out of your blog.
What do you plan on making a weblog about?
Respectfully,
Munhozmib.

You will have to make a blog about something you like. Otherwise, you will not be able to be happy by doing it. Try to match your interest with something that people might like too. And then make your blog in a creative way. But make it to yourself, thinking about your own happiness, and then people will like it.

Perhaps that i've been blogging for nearly 2 years, i could have my humble opinion on this.
To put it more straightforwardly, IT IS possible to earn money through blogging. But even if you do, the amount is so little as to only buy a loaf of bread every week on your table. That's it.
Unless you're that famous a blogger (usually because of your content and the readers you attract), then your earnings could bring you 3-5 loafs of bread on your table, per week.
But to answer your question, it's sad to say, up till today, it's still virtually impossible to earn that much money on a blog to support your life.

Hello unuzzz,
I don't know much about blog. But, I read a few times about some people who really get good earnings by blogging online. It is not like a few cents or dollars. You can even earn a living by doing that. But I am not sure whether it is just a story or it really happened to the people mentioned on the site. The guy who introduced me to MyLot also makes money by blogging. His income per month is almost like my salary!
