i find that a lot of people are searching on how to make money online. somehow there is this notion that money can be made easily and fast thru the internet. people are continuously searching for ways to make some extra cash. somehow, my experience as well as my observations have taught me that it is never easy to make money unless you hard work with dedication. any work that you do, whether it be clicking on ads or writing an article, involves a whole lot of time and energy. there is no easy way out. ofcourse, there may be those lucky ones who strike it rich in no time, but such cases are rare. if that be the case with every one, there will not be so many discussions on making money quickly and easily.

I think earning online is not as easy as we think. We have to work for it and wait for some time to earn quite well. Maybe perhaps if we have much knowledge about the programs on the internet then it would be easier. But definitely it would take effort and of course time. Most of those that offers great earnings or instant earnings are obviously a scam. The important thing is to make sure that what we are joining are legit. Otherwise we would be wasting much time for nothing.

it is indeed necessary that people recognise legitimate online schemes before spending money as otherwise they may end up in a scam. whatever the reason, there is nothing to compensate for hard and dedicated work. thank you for responding. happy mylotting

In my experience, making money online has been challenging but definitely achievable. It's a constant learning experience. I've found that most of the battles I've faced in this arena has been with the personal rather than the 'internetical' (not a word, but who cares?!!!). Making money online, for me, has more to do with the self rather than making money online per se.

glad to find that you are truly happy of your achievements. i guess this satisfaction has come thru a lot of trial and error methods. i just wanted to prove a point that earning money is not very easy thru the net if you do not have dedication. happy mylotting, friend. i hope you will share your online experiences with others so as to give guidance to a certain extent.

Thanks for your comment. I wouldn't go as far as saying I'm truly happy, but compared to where I was before 2008 where I was hardly making any money online, I've achieved and learnt a lot. take care...

I am just having similar notion like you. I am till not able to make huge money. whatever i make is very very small. I have seen most sites are scams in name of money making. Plus very hard work, in depth knowledge are required to use your effort in successful way.

No, it’s not easy. I’ve been ‘at it’ since 2006, and I work my business every day, for hours on end. And just about now am I beginning to make some money. I’ve seen trillions of promises and outright lies, about 70% of the webpages promoting any type of business opportunity are either outright lies or very close to criminal fraud. Mind you, there is that 30% that are genuine. And they WILL tell you before-hand that nothing comes from nothing, that it takes hard work and dedication to set up a business and make a profit. Sounds suspiciously like any brick-and-mortar business in the offline world, doesn’t it. And that’s the point. Many people believe that because they are doing business on the Internet, it’s somehow different, like some magic is involved. Business is business, and the same principals apply online and offline. I wish you all the best.

thank you very much. i am sure your observations will help a lot of people in managing their online activities. as you have rightly put, online business has no magic about it. you need to put in quite a bit of effort and time to make a success of it. good luck to you too.

there really are a lot of people who earn money online, and some of them do it full-time. i believe they really earn a lot from whatever they're doing. i know and i believe that it really is not that easy to make money without the hard-work. but i think these people who earn money online really had the patience and the perseverance to do what they are doing. for example, getting a lot of referrals, spreading the news, etc. for some people, as soon as they got in the "making money online" bandwagon, they wanted instant results, which is not the case. i think it really takes time, and you need to have the patience. :)

I agree with pree70. Making money online is not as easy as we think. We need to sacrifice time and energy to earn the money. The most important is online making money not only earn money but also let us earn the knowledge. I really like myLot because i can choose to comment on the topic i like and also can refer to the comment given by others. It make my mind and knowledge wider. Put more afford to make money online, everyone can make their dream become true if they dedicate to do so. Gambateh!

well to begin with making money online is not at all a easy thing but it is not a impossible thing too.things in which we should be careful are that most of the online monry making sites are scams but there also sites which are not scams.From my experience i came to know that all the sites which demand money for providing u information about online money making sites are scams and be aware of them .the best way of making money online is taking surveys,focusbooks.i think that i have already told u the secret now it's ur turn to unfold the thing and succeed in making money online,bye

I dont see it as easy. I have found several small ways to make money but nothing that pays off all my bills or anything like that so far. We can always hope right!

oh yes. never loose hope. when i read about those lucky ones who are minting money even while on a vaccation as their online jobs run like clockwork, i really get envious. as you said rightly, we can always try and hope for the best. good luck, pal.
