These days, there are many friends in this web, who told me that they had maken money online in lots of ways. Writing, linking, posting and so on. Some people even said their sites or blogs are worth thousands of dollars. It seems that earning money online is very easy. Just sit in front of a computer and write something, then money will coming to you. Is it all what they did. So i want to know how it works ? And who paid them? Maybe my question is very immature. I apologize for this. And if anyone can tell me some details about this, i really appreciate it.

I have spent the last 10 years building my online income. I have the following words at the top of my blog... Do Your Research - Be Dedicated - Stay Focused - Have Discipline I honestly believe that anyone can earn online by following these basic principles. If you are new to earning online it can become very frustrating. I suggest that you do your research...find out what you want to do online....then make a monthly earning goal....then take steps everyday to achieve that goal. Success can be yours...but it takes time and focus. Good luck to you

If you are working from the comfort of your own home....you must have self discipline....and you must be dedicated to your work....if I didn't have those two qualities...I would be sitting on the couch all day watching t.v. or wasting my time in some other way...

earning money online is not so easy. You have to sit infront of the computer for hours to get a little sum. By registering in multiple sites you may get a desired sum. Take care.

Everything is easy if you know exactly what to do and how to do it,not only online but with every other thing! There are people making thousands online easily because they are highly skillful in the art of marketing,or programming or referring,list building etc, skills not acquired overnite,takes a long time and a propensity for it to be successful online earner! It will either be a miracle or lying if someone tells me a complete newbie is earning thousands practically overnite with no skills,just joining this or that,or may be they earn a thousand because they invested a thousand and one hundred which they conveniently omitted!

It depends on the way you get it. If you know the way, it is just as simple as to turn your hand off. But on the other side to making money online is also difficult. Why? because online business is the same as offline. The way you build your site, on the offline can be described as house. The way you promote. And other factor that can draw many people to your online store. You gotta learn the knowledge first, than you must action. Don't be too long to wait til you ready. Action is the most important thing.

I agree with you. I always do research before I join any site just to make sure it's legit. I don't want to be scammed.

I think it is not easy to find HONEST earning websites. There are quite a lot of websites which say they can offer you high payments. But actually you can't expect that you can earn a lot from them because they will create different reasons not to pay for you at the end. The truth is few websites will really pay for you. I love China

It's very hard to earn money online., if you will join you should observe policy and taking care of, like following all the rules and regulations so that you wont get banned. I have learned a friend of mine who really have big earning online. She working with graphics online., all she have to do is designed a thing then submit it then once approved she got the money through paypal or xoom., that's her livelihood. But i'm not like her., i don't put much attention on designing., I am just joining forums and i am working in the office in real life. So earning money online is depend upon the situation. If you work online full time then you will earn a lot but if partime only then don't expect to earn that much.

Okay, I'm going to be completely honest on here and say that no, it really isn't easy to make money online. In fact, it is something that can be quite difficult to do. However, given the fact that I am a stay at home mother and I wouldn't be making money any other way, I have found that it is an avenue which is worth pursuing for me. You really have to search yourself and find out if you are willing to dedicate a lot of time to a relatively small amount of money.

i think this is not as it seems to be. i think there are billions of websites or blogs on the internet and not all are earning. and most of them even do not earn a dollar daily, other side they spend more for their maintenance than they earn. there is a need of good idea , good implementation and big number of users to earn.

It's easy but you won't get paid thousands from it. This is just one of those that you do during your free time. You won't get rich overnight. You have to work hard for it. Earning money online is just giving you some extra income. don't rely on it as your main job. It'll get you nowhere.

It's not as easy as you think. Well, during your start it will NOT BE EASY. It takes a lot of dedication and research. Building up your online earnings will be tough. It'll only be at the start. After making it stable, that's the time you sit back and relax, thus making online money making EASY.
