I started using the internet in April 2008 with a very minimal knowledge about computer. I just learned from someone that using the internet could be a source of income so I bought a computer and had the internet connected. Although I knew only a little about computer, I tried anyway with the help of my son who is a computer savvy I was able to surf the internet.
I didn't have problems typing and writing because I am a short story writer and I am good at typing so it took me only a few days to find a writing site that i surfed using google search.
Since then i never stopped writing.
You can earn money using the computer. If you know how to string sentences and know your grammar, even if you aren't a writer or even if you aren't an expert, you can earn by writing online. There are many writing sites that you can write to and earn money. Of course you have to start with the cents which will finally become dollars and so on.
When I first started earning online, I checked my account every day and counted the few cents that popped up every day. But now that i grew my articles, I am earning a regular income monthly. Although it is not so much, it is still money that can buy some useful things.
Thanks to my computer and the internet.
Share how you use your computer to earn money so that mylotters can share in your money making schemes.

Zaaro, you can try Triond.com for a start. You can write about anything that interests you. If you are still in school, you can write about your life as a student. Just write anything and read a lot of articles online that you are interested in.
Try writing every day even if it is just a few sentences. You will soon learn to write. Most writers aren't born but made.

A pleasant day to you Masmasika,
Well, I do use my computer very wisely. As this is also one of my hobby, being logged on over the net. I have started my online job around four years ago. During those times, my earnings was not that big, as I am just doing it very seldom. It doesn't matter how much will I earn. Although I am not that serious on that, my earnings were really high and I was able to buy some electronics in an online store. Hence, after that buying experience online, I am doing my online work seriously, and honestly, I am getting paid for every hard work that I am doing via online.
As in your situation, if you will really focus more on online jobs, for sure, you will also got paid more. Plus if you will also avail of other online works, then, you will really have a tremendous earnings in the future.
Thus, you can really make money out from your computer.

I can feel the happiness the computer and online earning bring to you. Yes, sometime, we are here earning by writing not only for money. The experience is very important. It give us a way to express ourselves online and to others.
I start using computer about 10 years before, but i have not started any online earning program until 2007. I joined mylot in that year, but had never been serious and active in it. It is at the beginning of 2011 that i was serious on online earning, and from then on, i took several other sites to earn online. Including article writing sites. Though i am not good at writing at all, and my English is very poor, but i think with practice, it will improved little by little.

It is great that you have found a way to earn online. I am earning a little bit online but not as much as I would like too. I hope to earn more this year and I hope to be able to find a way to earn even more as a writer this year.
I have been writing on several sites this year and I am looking into new sites for this year as well.

Earning online is a hard task. I started from a few cents that i thought cannot grow then finally I was able to find good sites where i am earning a regular income. Keep writing and building your portfolio and you will soon succeed. it takes too much work to write a bulk of articles that will soon earn money in the future but it pays. Once you have accumulated a lot of articles online, your earning will come regularly.

You make it sound so easy... I envy you...
I am not a writer and I want to try writing online but I don't know where to start. I've tried to start a blog but I'm having a hard time thinking what to do next.
One myLotter (sorry, I forgot your name) said that making sales together with affiliate websites could also generate good income. I'm planning to try that out too. And I hope this time I'll get the hang of it.
