Making “easy” money online

There is a lot of mis-information out there about how easy it is to create channels of income that are connected to the internet. A lot of the things you have read about is false, so… let me explain some things to you.

The very first thing to do if you will make money online is that you MUST NOT start thinking making money online is easier than making money offline. You must be ready to put in as much effort as you would put into any other business. In fact, these days I don’t think there is anything like internet business or tech business; all businesses must use latest tech and the internet or be wiped out.

So then, if you realize that making money online is equivalent to running a (real) business, you must be ready to invest the capital and sweat needed to build something concrete. The reason people feel its very easy to make money online is due to the costs. They fail to realize that there is a big difference between “easy” and “cheap”.

Starting and running a business online is CHEAPER and might be MORE EFFICIENT than any other method.

You will hear stories of how people make up to $100 (N22, 500) by tweeting an advert to their followers, what they will not tell you is how long it took such people to build up a following on Twitter – months of sweat! Months of consistent hard work to acquire followers one-by-one until the whole thing begins to pay off. We all read about and look forward to the pay day, but only few is willing to show up on work days.

“Cheap” is setting up a Twitter account for free, but tweeting regularly and getting followers is not “easy”. You have to put in effort.

The next myth to debunk is the notion of making money online itself. You need to understand that the internet is a location, a platform for you to build a money-making venture upon. This means making money online is essentially building a business based on the internet, and there are hundreds of ways of going about it.

Starting to make money through the internet requires you to work hard.
