i think the reason that i'm not making any money is that i'm tring in alot of places and i didn't consetrate my effort in one place and that i give up very easily. i have done alot of stuff but none of that i have sticked to...
i think that i have lack of disaplane,that i'm keep searching for something better and maybe i had forgot about what i already have, or maybe that i really didn't find a way that's i like ..
i have tried blogging and i only made $1,80 yes that's so little and so i stopped it and then you did clickbanks but i didn't get any results so i gave it up very quickly and after that i tried ebay .. i have an ebay seller account and i tried to sell but no one have bidded on what i have or even watched it .. so i gave up again
and then i tried project payday and i actually made money there ..people sending me money on my paypal just for doing some offers. but the offers needed a credit cards and i don't like to be involved in that so i stopped it .. and the search still on for a way to make money online ..
Now i'm doing a ptc site it's called neobux but come one ..people who are doing that how much your expecting to make from sutch site??
and then again i have read a book called the adsence impaier and i hade some hope that i can make it from adsence again so i went back to my bolg and changed some stuff in it and i'm tring to inhance it befor i send it to all my family to ask them to check my blog ..
i think that i'm running into cercels here in the search for money ..
i think that wat i really want is an online job that they would pay my buy the houre i'll be happy in something stable and not left to chance or posiblity's ..
tell me what do you advice me guys ..

Well you can call this as a one reason may be if you are not able to give your concetration in bits,but i work on many sites at a time yes that affects my work sometimes but trust me not that much.well i think you can give time to your work per day like one whole day you can work for mylot and then another day for other things and so on, i guess that will work better for you :).

Maybe you're putting too much trust at earning money through unconventional ways. You should focus more on getting a real job, otherwise you'll always feel this frustrated because the internet will never pay you off as much as a real job would after all.

I know exactly what you mean. I tried a lot of things, but it seemed like I was spreading myself too thin. So I started to concentrate on my biggest "money-maker", my home business. Things got a lot better when I put all my efforts into one thing. You can check out my profile for the links if you want to check it out.
I just do mylot mostly for fun, but I do like the little bit of money I do get from here.

It's very easy to get distracted with the latest and greatest glitter that comes online. It sounds like you figured out what the problem is. You have to find something you have a passion for and stick to it. Put the blinders on and don't get caught up in all the other stuff. I know this because similar things have happened to me. One of my motivational cd's in my library called 'The 90 day Blitz' is from a marketing expert who is very frank about the importance of blocking out a 90 day period to focus on what ever it is that you've chosen to do as a business. Of course it's a good thing to take a day or 2 off each week to refresh but invest the needed time in yourself and see what happens in 3 months. If your financial situation improves to your liking, then you're on the right track, if not it's time to look at what you're doing and make some needed adjustments.
Hope this helps. I wish you well.

You're right, your efforts and time are being divided, by keeping on trying and starting at differrent sites. Try to stick at one site first and do efforts to reach it's minimum payout, example mylot, so you'll experience an income and be inspired the next time for a much bigger earnings.

I sometimes get down on myself but then there are a lot of sites that if you develop a daily regime, you can make adequate income. In the beginning of course it is much harder than once you have your regiment in place but it helps to plan out a course of action and definitely not just one site will do it all.

I often wonder on the same stuff. I too tend to get to many things going at once so I do not put so much into one thing I usually operate on a fast pace and go back and forth with lots of different things through the day. The other sites that you can make money on the web, I am not much involved in. Everyday I think I need to write, and then I still do the same stuff.

on the net its difficult to make huge amounts of money. atleast for people that dont have a skill. you need to have a few skills, even for affiliate marketing. Try to go to a few freelance sites to see if there is any project that you can do. you can find a good list of freelance sites here: http://freelance.devhub.com
If you was able to make a small amount by doing something, you can repeat it or multiply it. You can start a few more blogs, get some PLR content re-written to post in your blogs etc. Or you can try affiliate marketing.

Focus until your eyes cross, keep at one thing, until you are doing it successfully and preferably with out effort or much time, then broaden your horizons, add me as a friend, I have a wonderful free resource that I am sure you would love.
Cheers.

This is definitely one reason. Sometimes, you try to get financial sources from different avenues that you eventually find yourself not making enough from each one due to the lack of focus and effort. BY learning to stick with one and focus your efforts on that particular website, you are maximizing your time and effort since you could potentially earn more. THta is not to say that working on many different sites is not beneficial either. It is all about proper time management but if you do not have this skill, then it is best to focus your efforts in one for the meantime. Another crucial factor here is the quality of the site you have joined as well.

Hi You sound very disapointed in your quest to make extra money and there are thousands, if not millions around the world feeling the same way as you are.
I also have been there, I tried for 8 years, made a bit here and there but it never amounted to a great deal.
In the end I tought myself to put a crude web site together and contacted some wholesalers and finaly landed on a good one. it was hard going and for the first 6 months I hardly sold anything but this year I closed the down as I have health problems with my dear wife.
Having said that, in last year trading I turned over £20,000 just sitting in front of a laptop. It is not easy but it can be done, if you want to know more let me know. take care grom George.
PS Smile I am just starting another web site with easier shipping than the last one. gandscrafts.com

I don't make much either-but I keep plugging away anyways. Have you tried inboxdollars or sendearnings? I've been paid 3 times each site, payout is at $30. Also, I do surveys...you may not qualify right away, but just keep trying. I do the daily survey on adpaid.com and usually get 80 cents or $1-depending on which one I qualify for. I'm still looking for that magic solution myself that so many people claim they have found online. I'm not sure what else there is...I've heard that blogs have to be catchy, well written and popular before you can actually cash in on them.

Diligence and focus are required for anyone wishing to make money be working online. You need to focus on only a couple of different sites at a time, to gain understanding of how each site works.
For example, I have found that writing articles can be produce revenue only if you are willing to put the time and energy into it. Sites like Constant Content, Associated Content and Helium all begin to produce revenue once you have taken the time to build up your article portfolio.
Research the sites before you get started. Often we jump from site to site so sporadically that we never really discover which ones would best suit our needs and our skills.

For me, the key is to try a few different things and really try to concentrate on those particular things. I try to have a sort of schedule for the things I do so that my time for each one is pretty even. I do, however, fail to keep my own set schedule a lot and I know that effects me negatively. For example, for the last few weeks, my husband and kids have wanted me to spend more time with them, out fishing before the weather gets too cold for us to really enjoy it as a family. I will tell them that I will agree to go for a set amount of time, then end up giving in to them when they want to stay longer. This has really hurt me when it comes to earning.
I think that once I get my schedule straight again, i will do a lot better. I really believe that we can easily be a part of multiple activities on-line and do well as long as we schedule our time wisely and really put forth the effort in doing those things we set out to do.
I think that you should decide exactly what you want to do, write it al down, then schedule your time accordingly. Stick with it, and see what happens.

Working online is just like working in the real world. You have to put an honest effort in to make any decent money. I cannot go to my day job and work 3 hours but expect to get paid for 8. Same goes for working online. If you spend 2 hours working but 4 hours searching for new ways to make money, you only get paid for the two hours... See what I mean? Keep in mind, you get back what you put in, and if it looks too good to be true, it is!

hi there aconites :) i know how you feel. i'm still new to mylot and all the other money-making sites and there really are times wherein i wanted to quit because i'm not making any money. but no matter how i contemplate on quitting, i'm still here and i'm not giving up. what gives me hope is that all the other people who have been here for months or years already went through the same thing that i did. they didn't give up that's why they're earning a lot already. it takes time to earn on money-making sites, so you just have to be patient.
i wish you all the best! :)
