    I'm a collage student. And I need a money to pay my collage and my living cost since I don't want to ask money from my parent. I work as a link builder, part time or full time, and I can make a good income from this, at least I can pay all of my monthly bill. And sometimes I buy and sell domain name for a little profit. Its really help to supply my Saturday night cost for sure..lol The problem is, sometimes I have a good or big idea, but I have no capital at all to getting started, so its looks so bad. I hope I can make a good living income for the next year

    When I first started I had this (or what I thought was a) great idea. I was going to drop ship a certain womens shoe product and make a killing by under cutting the market. When the high costs involved put the kabosh on that idea I went back to the drawing board.

    Without looking to hard I discovered that I could probably make some cash on the side with Google Adsense. After a little bit of success with that I was introduced to affiliate marketing and I honestly haven't ever looked back since.

    Being an affiliate marketer of physical products has allowed me to "sell" products without actually having to stock them, handle customer service, or accept returns. It's really changed my entire outlook on making money online.

    Today I'm starting to get into more content websites and profit from CPM advertising.

    I cant say that Im already making a living right now but all is enough to pay for frequent bills every month. Well the $400 that I earn comes from freelancing as well. Im far from becoming a good article writer but I am consistently doing good with being a virtual assistant.

    Product Creation ++

    Lots of money to be made, but can be the most expensive if you want to create a top notch product.

    Right now I make my money as a paparazzi in Los Angeles and I used to make decent money flipping web sites and outsourcing PHP programming. I plan on substituting my income as an affiliate marketer

    i would say my top money makers so far since 2008 have been

    1. cpa offers
    2. service offering
    3. outsourcing

    i have not been very fortunate with SEO and PPC such in the past at all.

    I have a pretty solid business model that I stick to quite vehemently. However, on the odd occasion I veer off to something else but quickly get bored.

    My main source of income comes from two places;

    1. Niche content sites built around solid, long term niche markets. I monetize these with simple adsense, clickbank and cpa revenue streams.

    2. Squeeze page -> give away product/content of extreme value -> oto -> upsell -> work the back end and lifetime value of each subscriber.

    I like both models equally. They are both extremely easy. Anyone on this forum could do them. Problem is, most people don't want to work hard and dedicate themselves to something for a few months in order to see a lifetime of fruition.

    Number 2 above is the easiest to get into. All you need is a domain name, hosting and autoresponder. You can be set up in a matter of 4 hours.

    Number 1 is more difficult since it involves a lot of content creation, seo'ing and such like but it is equally rewarding if done right.

    Hope that helps someone looking for some direction.

    At the moment, I look after/maintain a number of sites for offline business clients. That is my main money earner.

    I also dabble in site flipping, affiliate marketing and adsense.

    All adds up to more than enough to live on but always looking for more!
