Work At Home Mum Makes $7,397 A Month!

… and other success stories. Sounds good, huh? With the advent of e-business, people are looking to make big bucks off the internet. But out of the multitude of hopefuls, how many actually profit? And how do these lucky ducks do it?

I don’t know, obviously. If I did, I wouldn't be writing this.

But here are some ways mere mortals like us can try our green hand at.

Blogging

AdSense by Google is a simple way to earn money through blogging. All you need to do is allow Google to place ads on your blog via an option that enables AdSense, and you get $$$ whenever someone clicks on an ad. The difficult part is getting traffic to your blog. No visitors, no clicks, no $$$.

Blogshops / Online shopping

Blogshops range from the professional to the amateur. Professional ones would include online shopping sites like ASOS, ViviDoll, and Zalora. The amateur ones are really attempts to sell stuff you have lying around in your house collecting dust.

Virtual currency

This one is the most interesting and entertaining choice… if you’re a gamer. In the gaming world, hardcore players who are serious about their craft may spend big bucks online for advanced weapons and armour. Some games actually have auction houses or trading systems of some kind where real-world currency is traded for virtual currency and vice versa. Arguably, the most famous example of such a game is Diablo III.

Still interested in making money online? Any of the 3 suggestions listed above are safer than, say, investments or playing with stocks. But of course, no pain, no gain. E-business is tricky business, but if you do make it big online, be a saint and share some tips here, yea?
