Can we really make money online?

 


gracebiz
I have heard a lot of myths especially from those emails especially from affiliate programs. I wonder whether it's true that we can make a lot of money online. Anyone has experienced that, please share it.

Thank you.

i've personally never wandered into the world of affiliate programs but i have done surveys before. Usually you don't get much out of it, that will always be true, but there are certain sites that pay out well. There are also other programs that pay per click on an advertisement but, once again, the payout for those are usually low.

an example: Bux to

here the payouts are small but they add up somewhat, as does anything i guess, over time. Not really much of a living though.

Anyone else have anything they can say about this?

I personally would not bother getting into the affiliate program thing. In my opinion they are a huge waste of time. The company you are advertising for would have to have a very good payout amount. Which you probably won't ever find. If the company is willing to pay big bucks for advertising, then I do not think they would bother coming up with some type of affiliate program.

You could go get a job at McDonalds and you would probably be better paid.

I also do not think it is worth the time for pay per click websites. You get like what, 1cent per click?? That would take forever to get a decent amount of money a month. Even if it were possible, you would be so busy clicking you wouldn't have time to do anything else.

It is possible to make money online, however I do not think affiliate programs and pay per clicks are the way to go. Seems like a waste of time to me.

what do you propose then? i think this thread is more about listing the ways to make money online instead of debating whether or not they are time worthy. and you are right about the pay per click sites and the 1cent/ click payout but they usually limit how many adds you can click daily anyhow.

Is affiliate marketing for me . . . by Bluedoll



My experience is only with researching affiliate income possibilities. I have never had a successful affiliate program. From what I read, people do make money with affiliates from the small web site developer, to larger companies. I think the concept works but you need to be able to market the goods, so to speak, especially if your goal is to make a large amount of money. Yes, that means being able to become a popular site(s) with lots of click action. I suppose that is what all the learning and work is about for we all know that terrible fact that nothing really comes easy in the world of commerce.

The requirement for an affiliate marketer seems to be dedication, perseverance, willingness to learn, and the ability to manage time in regards to what works and what doesn’t. A site marketer also has to watch out for the scams, etc, for there are lots of people without scruples feeding on the market that drives the affiliate market, i.e. watch what you spend to make money!

Startup is never easy, personally for myself, I am not inclined to be dedicated and enthusiastic about marketing in general so although I do look at affiliate marketing, don’t get to deeply involved, so therefore, don’t have expectations of making a lot of money at it.

I don't have any direct experience with affiliates, but as far as I know they do not pay that much, and one would not use them really for the purpose of only income. The income is nice, and "free" of course, but as I see it it is about generating traffic to the Website as well. I would not want too many affiliates either, as people may click away from your Website and get lost in an Amazon jungle for example .... Smile

neither for me have these affiliate programmes been a success. Though knowing a affiliates and linking sites on commission basis have generated some profits for me.

has anyone seen a site that pays but just having people link to it? as in, i can post the link on a blog or something and whenever someone clicks it, i would make some small amount of money?

Can you make money on-line?, yesssss!!!!!!!!! look at google and amazon.

Can you make money with those e-mails you receive? hardly enough for a living, and some of them are not real, just spam.

Money comes from selling a thing or a service (yes, the obvious definition), if you don't do any of those two, money won't come.

You can make money by making a website, put some content, and sell ad space on your website (via google adsense or other means). If quality blogging is something fun for you ("quality" means your blog is not about your dog or cat, which nobody cares) then a bit of extra money couldn't hurt.

I also heard about a black technique of making money where you upload some illegal or adult content to websites that give you money when the file is downloaded. Then you put the links to your uploads on appropriate high-traffic forums (basically spamming) and hope people download your files.

If you find the right tactic, yea.

good tactic to earn 1 $ in 10 places and not 10$ in 1 place.

Some referral sites allow you to get money like $1 per referral then get money through the referrals clicking ads which gets them money.
