Does anyone here make a passive income online? If so how do you do it? I have read a bit about it but don't know where to start. If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be awesome.

I think you have been reading too many guru emails. If by passive income you mean money that comes in without you doing anything - IMHO there is no such thing. Yes you can recruit affiliates who work as a second tier under you in a two tier affiliate program,that is the closest I can come to a way to earn a passive income. Any affiliate who signs up from your affiliate link earns you a small percentage of their (small income) If you recruit enough affiliates, eg 1000 you might earn 10 x the average affiliate earnings. But affiliates fall by the wayside and if you do nothing to replace them your own income will gradually dwindle. And How??? are you goingto get 1000 affiliates anyway! Blogging, providing your readers with affiliate products they need is a real life alternative, but slow to start, to the guru idea of Magic Button Passive Earnings. That's what I am trying to do, anyway
