Easy way to make money??? I think not!

[bigcat1967]

Just wondering if you guys have experienced a nice way to make a few extra bucks - nothing major. Or it could be major. I've seen it all - how to get rich schemes - I just don't mess with them.

Just seeing if anyone knows of good ways to make money using your website.

Nothing easy to make money especially money from online business. I have been working here for more than of one year. Now I get result however how many time and effort I do for that? I spent all my times to reach my purpose. I have some website and blog, and make it worth for me. I can't live without my site cause they are source of income for me now.

bigcat1967,

The guy who runs this forum, Yaro, is making a living off of doing what he loves the most. I could literally hand you a list of people I know personally who make legitimate money online because they followed their passion. None of it is get-rich-quick schemes at all, you just need to look harder and deeper into it because there is alot of "website spam" out there.

Now the online business is the best option chosen by everyone to make money. They create website traffic and earns a lot. Various ways are handled in such to increase their website traffic.

have you thought about going to elance.com or guru.com and outsourcing your skills? that would probably be the quickest way to get some money in.

do you have a list yet? i once did a webinar and made a thousand dollars for the morning just by presenting information the audience needed to know - and that was only from a list of about 150 people.

Just an idea...

Now I'm going to go against the consensus here and get blunt and to the point and I'll address each of your comments in order.

If you want to make a few dollars mow some lawns or get a job at the local supermarket. It's far easier and you'll have a few dollars in your pocket by the end of the week.

Interestingly you mention that you've seen all the 'get rich quick schemes'. How many have you actually tried? In my experience the people who talk about get rich quick schemes are people who were either to afraid to actually go ahead and do it, or they were just tyre kickers, or worst of all they didn't have the persistence that it takes to get a business up and running and become successful.

If you expect to make your fortune overnight then good luck with that but if you think making money online is easy, or at least any easier than making money offline your sorely mistaken.

You clearly have no goals and no real drive or desire to get what you want from life.

So now that the harsh stuff is out of the way let me try and point you in the right direction.

Work out EXACTLY what it is you want to achieve. Then make a decision to achieve it. You are responsible for your own destiny and if you carry around an attitude that everything out there is a get rich quick scheme then chances are you are never going to achieve anything.

When you start to see the opportunities that you are presented with each and every day you will quickly start to see how and where you can begin to make money online. But it takes time, effort, commitment and perseverance. The internet is chock full of money making opportunities and none of us who are making money from it ever got a hand out like what your asking for.

Once you make the decision to be a success you will stop at nothing till you find a way to achieve it.

Was I too harsh? I hope not but at the end of the day you'll get over it because you know what I am saying is the truth.

hi kathudson, can you explain "outsourcing" please? what exactly is that? Thanks, lifevietnam

Blogging is one among the several ways in earning money using websites. Once your website was able to reach thousands of people and each one of them became your followers, you can soon start to accept advertisement which will be your way in earning money. Writing indeed is very strong that with its power, people are allowed to earn without really spending too much.

Seems she's disappeared so I'll answer this for you.

Outsourcing is simply getting other people to do the work that you either have no time for and are not properly skilled to do.

Say for example you have a blog but you run out of time to write your posts. You might get a guest poster. That could be considered outsourcing. Or perhaps you'd rather not learn the details of SEO so you hire someone to do it for you - Outsourcing. Maybe you want to build a custom wordpress theme or plugin but don't know how to code in CSS and PHP - you can outsource it to someone who does and then slap your own name on it.

From the other direction.
Say you can write great 300+ word articles on any topic. You might offer those skills, for a fee, to someone who wants to do some bum marketing. You ghost write it and they put their own name on it as the author. You might have coding skills and someone wants a plugin built. They pay you to build but they slap their own name on it as the author.

Elance and rentacoder are 2 sites where both parties come together. Need a job done, go to either of those site and you'll likely find the people to do it for you. You negotiate a price, they do the work, you pay them, job done.

Hope that about covers it but let me know if you need any more info.

sorry, been a chaotic week.

COuldn't have said it better myself - but when I spoke of outsourcing - I meant if you have some skills you can utilize now - you could go to elance.com and guru.com and register as a service provider.

There are people looking for virtual assistants, writers, proof readers to name just a few.

You might have a skill that you can use now to make a little money whilst you're building up your business.

If you log in you can have a look at the different kinds of jobs that are being posted - and then make a bid on it - the person then will choose from a bid that fits their budget / job profile.

Hope this helps.
