How to earn money online – Read this First

Everybody knows there is money in the web. If a newbie searches the web on how to earn money online (it may be the keyword – I guess or whatever) the new things he would learn within a few minutes is affiliate marketing, AdSense, Paid post and freelancing and etc.

But is it so easy to earn money online?

I don’t really think so. Unless you are seasoned in web and web industry, it is tough (if not impossible) to start earning from day one or even month one. Internet is still a goldmine but you must be a good digger and experienced enough to identify the cash spots to become rich.

To start earning money from day one, you must be a famous person online or have the capability to publicize your website in offline media to get visitors. Because, ultimately it is your visitors whom you would need to convert into real cash. And for a newbie, it is almost impossible to start getting visitors from day one (I would keep friends and relatives apart from visitor’s list for some obvious reasons).

I am not trying to discourage anyone who is planning to earn from internet (If I can earn, so can everyone). It is possible – but if you think you would become a millionaire on day one or if you think that people would start visiting your blog or website from day one and they would start commenting and participating, things would frustrate you soon.

It needs hard work and lots and lots of patience; especially if you are selling something that does not have direct monitory value. For example, if you are selling some products on eBay, you may start earning from day one; but if you are selling information in the form of a blog post or in a website, it would definitely take some time.

If you are a newbie in the web (I mean, if you are yet to start a website or a blog to taste the real world), I would recommend you to use the platforms that are already established apart from developing your own platform.

For example, start creating content in Squidoo or Hubpages or Associated Content – there are so many other similar revenue sharing websites that can offer you some income and a lot of experience on what people really want from you and how do deal with them. They already have an established platform and visitors would not be a big problem.

Shortcuts are often the longest roads – in case of web, the harder way lasts long.
