I make money online every day, whether I work or not. It was not always this way. I started out in 2003 online after years of success in the real world. I brought my business savvy and experience to the Internet and was able to succeed relatively easily. Most people don’t have my experience and because of that, they are unable to make even that first dollar. I will show you how to do it. Getting started only requires that you have the willingness to learn and apply what you have learned.

Let’s start with a simple method of income generation. There are many tasks involved in getting a website up and running. First there is the initial setup. Once the site is setup, you need to promote it and get visitors or you will not make any money. This is where you come in. Most promotional tasks are tedious and very time consuming. Web entrepreneurs are busy people. You can help them for a fee. You can promote their websites for a fee. You may be thinking that you don’t know how to promote a website, so how can you sell this service? That is simple. Let your client tell you what to do. Put up a classified advertisement on webmaster forums like DigitalPoint and SitePoint. Go to your favorite search engine and search for internet marketing forums, make money online forums and such. Post ads on each of these. Many will be free. You will set your fees according to ads that are like yours. Once you get some clients, you will be able to raise your fees if you offer good timely service.

Another way to make money online is to write articles and blog posts and ebooks. If you took the first tip I gave you to heart, then you already have a list of websites to post your ads to. Use this list and offer your blog posting and article writing services. Writing articles is really not all that difficult. You do some research on the topic you are given and simply put the information into your own words. Use a conversational tone just like you speak to your friends and family. Just make sure to omit any protestations of love in your articles unless you are writing about how to get your ex-girlfriend back. If you produce articles on time and of acceptable quality, you will have many repeat customers. Those same customers will come back to you over and over again.

Let’s say you really stink at writing. You can be an article writing broker. Here’s how this approach works. Most Internet marketers work on a quantity basis. What I am saying is that they need a lot of articles written in a timely fashion. Here’s where you can make some money. Go to DigitalPoint and find authors willing to work for $3/article. There are many who will. You will need around 10 authors. Tell them that you will have continuous work for them and get them on board. Next, offer article packs on the forums at 50 or 100 at a time for $4 or $5 each. You will be making money online without having to write a single article.
