Making Money Online

Is it possible to make some money fast online? 

This is a common question asked by new people to the world of online money making.   After thinking about it some, I decided that it was time to launch this site to answer just that question.

There are ways to make money online, but generally these take a while to develop the skills that are required.   

Most people searching for this type of thing feel as though they need to make a lot of money in a short period of time, this is challenging.   Most effective online strategies take a fair amount of time to bring in revenues of any quantity.   A lot depends on how much you know already, how much you need to make and how fast, as well as what you have to work with from the get go.   There are a lot of people who make money online, but there are also a lot of mistakes that people tend to make getting there.  Mistakes can be expensive in terms of time and/or capital.

Freelancing

If you need small amounts of capital to get by for a relatively short run, there are things like amazon turks.  Doing work of that kind is not even minimum wage work.   There is some market for article writers.   Longer term strategies include domaining, blogging, and site development.   Companies such as scriptlance.com offer a number of jobs for those with internet skills of various types.

Domaining and Domain Investing

Domaining is dicey, although potentially lucrative and there is a lot of knowledge required.   If developing a site for revenue, you have to know how to get a site that has strong traffic potential to begin with and then work to make that happen.  Selling domains is a fairly complicated and competitive business, again there are a lot of ropes to learn and a lot of potential pitfalls.

Development strategies may take a significant amount of time to mature, particularly if you are working in areas that are harder to monetize.   If you are working on less than optimal sites it requires skill to get enough traffic, if you are working from a site with strong potential then the payoffs tend to be higher but you are also likely facing strong and knowledgeable competition.

Blogging and Article Writing

Blogging takes skill at writing and takes time to generate enough traffic to make it profitable, ability to monetize that traffic is a skill as well.
                
Article writing is something you are going to have to actively pitch your services for, assuming it is in your skill set.   Typically the pay is low because it is a competitive field.  You can try selling your services on this forum, namepros service section, or in other places where people that need content hang out.   

Making Fast Money

I don't want to discourage you, there is money to be made, but making a ton of money overnight is a rarity at best.  The majority of people that succeed online, spend at least a year building the framework to create a revenue system that can fully support them.    There are of course exceptions, but they are rare.  

If you have the right skillsets then there are different possibilities, but since I don't know anything about you other than you are looking to make a bunch of money as fast as possible, it is hard to give you any more specific suggestions.  

Useful skillsets online tend to be things like programming, graphic design, website building, writing, and of course domaining.   Skills required in domaining are those that are required to identify quality domains and learning where and how to successfully market them.  

Sales skills can be very useful if you plan on directly marketing any domains you own, in general buyers are highly informed or are end users that need to be located, educated and sold on what you have.  If you have in person and face to face sales skills this can be a tremendous asset.

If you really need to make quick cash you may wish to sell surplus items on venues such as ebay and craigslist.com  The reality is it can take several months to a couple of years to make a substantial income online and its rarely easy.

Internet Success

There are a lot of people who have made very substantial money on the internet.  There are very few of them who stepped in and immediately became successful, it usually takes work, knowledge, skills development and dedication to get there.

Noomle is a good tool to make money with, but the success is going to depend in a large part on the quality of your domains, the amount of effort you put in and your time frames.   It essentially falls in the development category, with overlap in domaining and writing skills.  Some basic SEO knowledge and site promotion knowledge is also helpful to maximize your gains, although the system itself is well optimized, more traffic is always better.   As it is a development strategy, gains are likely to be realized, but the rate of gains may or may not be sufficient to your immediate needs.

There are a lot of get rich quick schemes out there, most of those require skills as well.   If there was an extremely easy surefire method of making a lot of money very quickly on the net, then everyone would be doing it, or whoever figured it out would probably keep the information to themselves.  The vast majority of make money fast schemes require on other people to buy in, this is something which takes skill and time to do well.
