This Article is about the story from the very beginning, how I started my online money making business journey and ended up a successful Affiliate Marketer.
Believe me you will enjoy and learn more from every twist and turns, every disappointment and hope I experienced on my online journey.
A list of answers of How to might satisfy your appetite but it would be like stuffing yourself with foods without enjoying it.
So let’s begin.
A year ago I was laid down and going through a difficult financial situation. You know what it is like. Each and everyone from friends to family, from garbage collector to mail man did not miss the opportunity to oblige me a piece of advice- what is best for me to do. I was down and naturally, with each advice I was going one step further down with my self-confidence. Then one day a friend of mine said:
hey man! Don’t you have a computer?
Yes I do. Why?
And internet?
Yes, what’s the point?
Why don’t you try earning money online? There are so many opportunities there.
This was the first tip that did not put me one step further down. I began to sit in front of my computer rather sitting in the lawn chair hour after hour scratching my head, closing my eyes, hoping for Aladin’s monster.
The first step I took was searching Google for a list of FREE freelance job providing companies and I registered with almost all of them. Eighty percent of the job providing companies was offering jobs that were highly technical like programming, website building, SEO- I didn’t knew what that means. Aha, there are one two companies that offers non-technical jobs like data-entry. Lucky for me. I began to bid for jobs.
A-A-A-A-H finally, I made a break through.
Just wait and see what happened.
I was surprised to see that an hourly rate I set to bid for a specific job, the other contesters were bidding less than half of it and those are more experienced, have more than 100 hours working record with the company, have testimonials from the customer of a successful previous job. I gave up.
Then I thought getting jobs from free job provider companies may be relatively hard compared to paid job provider companies and it would be easier to get jobs at higher price from paid online job providing companies. So I subscribed a company which was offering data entry job and survey job at lucrative prices from $5-$50 per hour. It cost me $7 to subscribe for seven days trial membership and $49.90 for one months subscription.. They were sending me emails everyday saying: Aminul, Data entry job available at $ 30 per hour or Aminul, earn $ 25 per 10 minutes survey today but when I logged in the site using my membership Id, I checked every corner and find no such jobs. There was some article writing jobs hanging in as show, if you bid that jobs it appears that the jobs will be finalized after one month that means I have to renew my subscription for another month paying another $49.90 to get a Article job god knows on what subject. Loosing $ 57 was painful enough.. So I gave up.
Next I paid attention to survey jobs. I registered with a number of free survey companies to learn that these surveys are for US, Canada and to some extend to UK, Australia and countries like that not for our part of the world. Though there are few International Survey Companies. If you register with them they will send for surveys by mail once or twice a month worth $ 1 or mostly some credit points which could be converted to money or special prize draw. Certainly I was not looking for these.
At the internet for 7 months, days and nights, one thing I was beginning to understand that I have to have my own web site or at least my own blog. To create a blog is easy through Google but I am not a writer nor have any specific knowledge on a specific subject so that people will read my blog. So I discard the idea of blogging. I don’t know HTML or whatever skill required designing a web site so I began to wonder how I will make my own web site!
I began to search internet for free web site designing tools and luckily got one. I downloaded the software successfully. But I must admit I was so novice that I could not use it properly to make a full fledged web site as I like.
The web site designing tools software I down loaded was designed by a person named Ewen Chia. I had to disclose my mail address to download the software. Now this Ewen Chia started to bombard my inbox with numerous sales letters and free E-books. I was reluctant to read his letters. Sometimes I opened his mail most of the time I didn’t. The reason of my reluctance may be I could not make proper use of his tools! After sending me sales letter for two months everyday this Ewen Chia must be fed up and referred me to a person named Stone Evans who is running successfully a residual income home based business named Plug-In Profit Site. Studying this program immediately I understood this will work for me and I was waiting and searching program like this for last six months. I am very thankful to Ewen Chia that he gave me this lead I was waiting for so long. The program is a package of 5 affiliate companies with residual commissions.
Even I thought that this system will work for me, I did not subscribe it immediately. I spent at least 3 months examining the program. I became member to a number of online money making business forums. There I discussed about the program, asked question, participated in the discussions and finally I came to a decision to subscribe for it.
