Recently, I was chatting with a friend about making money online. She said that she’s aware that a few people claim to make thousands of dollars online through various ways – blogging, affiliate marketing, membership sites, etc. While she believes that there are people making that kind of money, she’s also aware that not everyone can do it.
Now, what she really wanted to know is this: Is it possible to make $100/week online – working on writing/blogging?
My answer: Yes, of course.
If I don’t believe that it’s possible, I won’t be writing this blog – or posing $100 challenges.
Is it going to be easy? No way.
There are so many variables that may affect one’s income online. But, I do know one thing for sure: If you target your efforts well enough, you can get decent income from different online sources.
Some things to consider:
1) Make sure that you’re actually doing something towards that $100 goal. One thing I realise is that a lot of people tend to want to make money online, but don’t really do anything about it. They don’t start a site or a blog. They don’t apply for jobs or develop products. They don’t even join contests! I know that there may be many reasons behind such an inactivity. But, really, the first rule with making money online is to actually start doing something about it.
2) Try something that works. If you know that blogging and putting advertising works, then give that a try. Sure, it makes it more difficult because “everyone else is doing it” . But hey, it’s still worth trying, right?
3) Try something new. The risk is higher when no one else is doing something that you might want to try. But, chances are, the rewards may be greater too. Give it a go. You never know if it will work!
4) Big things can come from small things. If $10 per article seems too little a payout, consider how you can maximise that pay. Write shorter articles with more punch. Do a heavy research on a piece that you can draw out in several parts. Before you know it, you can have $100 just based on what appears to be a small payout to start with.
5) Learn all the time! There’s always something new to learn, something new to try. Be open and give things a chance.
What about you? What kind of advice would you give to those who might want to start making money online?

Oh yeah, it is possible if someone does paid plugins. Paid plugins is the easiest way to make money online.
Learn SEO, write quality articles that would be useful to readers, grow your audience and I think as your traffic grows, then start affiliate marketing.
It’s possible to make that and more, if you’ve done your research and know what works and what doesn’t. If you can follow basic instructions, it’s pretty simple to do. You may have to invest a little in some cases, such as with the freedom business franchise and multiple others, but in turn you get multiple streams of income, more than your investment and certainly more than $100/week.
