It seems much easier to earn money if you have a real job. I searched for ways to earn online, but it seems so hard to earn something. Here I have to spend all day to earn more. And I can't do this. I can't interact so much because I become tired. Other sites are scams. I don't have surveys because I live in Europe. It's hard to earn an extra income. Why is it so hard to earn money online? It's much harder than having offline jobs.

If it were easy all of us would be rich, online income for me is just a back up and for fun in a way although I make a decent amount teaching as a sideline.

@dya80dya yes but I do not work for any company, I have a contact partner in China who gives me students who wants to practice talking in English.

I stare at a screen for hours. And I earn a few cents. It's a waste of time. I made efforts to earn money. I wrote on forums some long comments. And they deleted them. I wasn't paid for them. I couldn't find serious jobs. Do you have any ideas? Maybe you know serious jobs online.

Nobody said anything was going to be easy anywhere in life.

@dya80dya Don't look at the money you earn online as spendable cash. Look at it as investable cash...either tucked into a savings account or somewhere else. That way the money you make here, small as it may be, earns forever. Still a pittance, but every penny counts. But it is worthless if you intend only to cash it in and spend it.

Online jobs are just for fun. They are not meant to live on.

For me myLot works. I love being able to interact. As for other things, there are other Writing sites and such out there. Also I have sold on eBay, and Bonanza.com but it depends on what you are really wanting to do. Nothing does come Free without putting some time and work into it.

From what I understand, if you want to earn a substantial income online, one of the best ways to do it is by affiliate marketing.
You'll need your own website, good content, affiliate links and a bunch of traffic going to your website. Then you have to patiently wait until some of that traffic turns into sales for you.
It can certainly be done, I have seen the proof but it requires time and patience. It is by all means doable if you are willing to work for it.
I think what you are talking about are earning sites that are designed to help users earn a few bucks here and there - a little pocket change but not like the earnings from a 'regular' job.

It is much easier when you have offline job. I also search but a lot of sites it is not available in my country. I don't want to spend all day on Internet to make money. I usually spend a few hours but if i would do only better paid onlind jobs i would spend 5-8 hours daily. I understand you because i also can not interact so much every day.

Very true, I am also searching for ways to earn online. I have been surfing the net for quite a long time but it's recently that I found paying sites like this one. We may not be able to feed a mouth with what we get, but who pays you for writing anything? As long as we interact with people and hoping someone along the way can help us find a better online job opportunity.
