I get this question all the time.<\/p>\n
Here’re my replies:<\/p>\n
I think people who ask this question, expect a ‘silver bullet’ type answer.<\/p>\n
Perhaps hearing “eBay Auctions” or “Adsense Publishing” will answer their money woes.<\/p>\n
But the reality is that lots of people are making good money on the Internet.<\/p>\n
And there’re at least ten basic ways to make online income, and probably 100 variations of that.<\/p>\n
So the best way is the way that works best for you<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The “You” factor plays a big part in your success.<\/p>\n You <\/strong>determine your business model, you <\/strong>decide how you want to position your product or service. You <\/strong>determine the action plan and you <\/strong>take action on it.<\/p>\n I’ve heard that click arbitrage is dead.<\/p>\n I’ve also been to a number of online communities recently where they practise it on a daily basis, with some making upwards of $5,000 a day.<\/p>\n Is click arbitrage really <\/em>dead?<\/p>\n Some would like to think so. I’m fairly sure that their detractors have their own business model (together with accompanying products and service) to promote.<\/p>\n I honestly believe that one business model is just as good as another, provided<\/strong> you put in the time and effort to make it work.<\/p>\n If you have a personal <\/strong>interest and stake in it, your chances of success are very much higher.<\/p>\n I personally don’t find creating 1,000 adsense income generating blogs that exciting, nor innovative (but that’s my personal preference), so I’ve decided to go ahead with this blog.<\/p>\n Most of my income has come from this blog, and people seem to be upset with me when I say that.<\/p>\n Perhaps they wanted to see my entire ‘network’. Or “all my websites” (I’m not sure what they want to see). —<\/p>\n Next question:<\/p>\n Sure. Pick something you’re interested in, then run with it.<\/p>\n Interested in Dogs?<\/p>\n Have fun too<\/strong>! (actually that’s the most important element).<\/p>\n Unfortunately, most people don’t see the behind the scenes work behind every success story.<\/p>\n If you want good money fast! Expect to put in 8 hour days building up your business.<\/p>\n Except for lottery winners, I haven’t seen many make huge incomes overnight.<\/p>\n Even when watching Super Affiliate Ewen Chia and Copywriter Jo Han Mok, pull their $65,462 affiliate marketing campaign over 2.5 days during the recent World Internet Summit, it’s easy to overlook the fact that they’ve been at it for the past 3 years.<\/p>\n
\nSorry to let you down, folks.<\/p>\n\n
