How long have you been in online earning business??

[arunima25]

Online earning is not a new thing. It has existed for quite long. People have always been attracted to it and keep finding ways to earn money from the convenience of their home and time. When was the first time you started your journey with online earnings? How it all started? Share your experience.

I started it around 15 years ago with the site "Mylot." Those were the days when there were lots of active people there and the payment rates were good and the algorithm was totally different. I earned $50 from there in 2-3 months just by chatting with the people.

I first started my online earning journey back in 2012 when I joined SEOClerk. I decided to start earning money online, as at the time I was in a mentally abusive relationship and he had control of the money, so this was my way of having money without him knowing.

Fast forward 13 years, I am out of that relationship, in a new one, and I still earn money online

I started around 2014, with affiliate marketing and freelancing here and there. It wasn’t easy at first, I went through trial and error. But once I found what worked, things started improving gradually. I haven't gotten there yet because I'm still learning every day. Online money is real, but it requires you to be patient and consistent.

I have been earning online since a very long time that I don't even exactly remember the exact date or even year. Actually I have taken a break too so it's a little complicated to calculate

Are you still in to affiliate marketing? I have heard that it's not easy to earn from it. Yes, online earning is real but a person needs to be patient and consistent otherwise it won't work.

@Sanjeev . Wow! That sounds impressive. I wish I would have known myLot back in those days and made some good money there .
@Shortie . I am sorry about the mentally abusive relationship. Happy that you are out of it and have moved forward. The good side is that you explored online earnings and that gave you a future relationship with online earning.
@uptrendfinancialsignal . I have not tried affiliate marketing ever. It's a good way to earn as I have learnt from others but not an easy way. How was it for you? Are you still in to affiliate marketing?
@Ginger It seems a long journey for you. And it seems like a good one that you enjoyed to stick with it.
Even I too a break. I explored online earnings in 2004 after my elder daughter's birth and a career break. It was mainly article writing and there were quite a few options in those days. I continued for good 7 years till my second daughter too started going to school. Then I went back to work and left online earnings for few years. Was back to online earning in 2016 after I took a part time job and left full time job.

My journey was good. I won't say I'm satisfied because I feel I may have done better but it's still not bad and I have made decent money and have won contests here and there.

 

[Sanjeev]

I also would say that my online journey is good so far. I have not earned much online, but I have known lots of people on the forums, who are like friends to me. I have always been on the forums to know new things and to know people.

I started earning money online about 10 years ago. If I had known about it earlier I would have stated on time to maximize my earnings by now.

 

[Ginger]

I have experience of many Years but I am not so active now as I'm busy with my offline job and other offline things and commitments

 

[Sanjeev]

@Ginger That's the problem with everyone but one should have the skills to manage things. I also have a job but I still manage both the things. I don't say that I am doing better but I will say that I am trying my best to balance both.

 

[arunima25]

@Ginger @Sanjeev . It is not easy to balance things. Offline job can be demanding and taxing. I am more active online on holidays and weekends. When the work day is long, I just go missing from online space all together. I have a part time job, more of freelance kinds. But I struggle to find time, running things on my own is quite draining. I enjoy running the show, it gives a sense of contentment and accomplishment. I admire you two who are so good at managing the two so beautifully despite being into full time demanding job.
