  • Anyone make money online?

    Does anyone made any considerable sum of money from their home computer?

    If so, please explain!

      Well my dad was intending to put up this South American cultural craft store online.. but just was too busy.

      I made money off some pay per click ad on my website.. $25 dollars...

        My brother is supporting his family and a mortgage with revenues from his webcomic.

        No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

          TMM,

          Is your brother getting subscription fees or ad money?

            I know somebody who brings in Japanese items and sell them on the Web. I am not sure how much is "considerable" to you, however.

              2) Russian bride mail-order scam

                I haven't discussed subscription fees with him, though he does accept donations...

                The last I heard, ad revenues weren't even covering bandwidth; almost everything he makes is from the books and other merchandise. That probably explains why every ad I've seen recently is for the Sluggy store.

                    I suppose any amount about zero is considerable. Anything over a few hundred dollars (profit) is pretty impressive and a steady income where not too much time is required is quite impressive.

                      Ah, franchising. That's always where the big $$$ is.

                            There are various legit ways of making money on the Web. You can sell items over on eBay or on your own website. You need a source of goods, which could be something you buy or something you make.

                            You can also sell services (e.g. Web design) and software.
