How to Make Money Online

By Divine Grace Segunla

Thank God for the World Wide Web! I just started my venture online a few months back and I discovered that there are hundreds or even thousands of great opportunities to earn money online. But unfortunately, there are also thousands of scams. We need to be extra careful.

I read and met (online) hundreds of men and women who made it big online. They are earning hundreds and thousands of dollars every month. Some make their living online and some do it part time. Nonetheless, they have found their niche in the World Wide Web. They are using the net to their advantage by turning it into a source of income for them.

Here are five easy steps to make money online.

1. Maintain Attitude
I believe this is the most important thing we need in our success. As I have mentioned, you will encounter scams along the way. They are littered everywhere in the web. You will get frustrated, that’s a fact. You will get discouraged. You will fail. Yes, you will fail and the sooner you fail, the sooner you will succeed. And in our journey towards success we need to maintain a persevering attitude. We need to arm ourselves with an attitude that will not back down from any obstacle.

2. Online Search
You must do your homework and you better do it well. There is no substitute to thorough research. Make sure you know what you’re getting yourself into. Read the FAQs, forums, and of course the policies. Google it.

3. Never Buy Anything
Eric Hodhulm is one of the online gurus I am getting my advices from and he said, “Never buy anything!” Keep this in mind. If you happen to encounter a site wherein you need to pay before you can earn then you better think about it (99% of the time they are scams). I mean the very reason why you’re online is to earn not to pay some fees. “Never buy anything” unless you know what you’re doing.

When you’ve done step 2, don’t be afraid to try out things. Explore the possibilities the web offers you. Keep your eyes open for other opportunities. Join forums and social networking sites. You can get a lot of scoops from there. And most especially try to enjoy every minute of it.

5. YOU
You are responsible for your success. Make sure to back up your plans with a decision to succeed no matter what happens. Quitting should never e an option. You never know what awaits you in the WWW. Good luck!
