Is anyone actually making money online? (anything above 800+ USD monthly)

I work as a social media evaluator and do some freelance writing here and then. I make an average of $600-1500 monthly USD, and this is actually good money since I live in a 3rd world country with a shitty economy.

My workload consists of 2 to 4 hours/day. Sometimes I'll go full autist and spend ~10 hours working on building my website, reaching out to clients, etc.

how did you go from nothing to your current position?

I tried doing something similar to this last month and honestly it was too much for for too little return. Also, I recommend goofbid.com for sniping eBay auctions, it's only like $7/month and I easily saved hundreds of dollars using it.

Where did you get that job?

>passive

Nope. You have to put out a video a day and find a way to gain a huge dedicated fanbase that will remain dedicated to you and buy twice the merch when mainstream media starts calling you a Nazi.

I net around $3k USD/mo between FBA and my affiliate site. $1k comes from the affiliate site, the rest from FBA. Looking to heavily invest and expand FBA this year. Will answer any reasonable questions if you have them.

How did you go about researching and eventually finding your product? I have one already but it's a lukewarm success at best. I have thever cash to invest again but I really want to pick a killer item. Thanks yo!

Used jungle scout and unicorn smasher to evaluate sales volume along with competitors. I found a niche that was just starting to trend (think similar to vaporizers) and the competition was pretty shoddy.

Cool. So how do you look for trending items? Did you have to customize anything with the Chinese suppliers, or just make ano order and hope that they would sell? How are you planning on finding next product?

I often lay awake at night wondering, is it possible that get rich quick schemes have evolved? Have the schemes become sentient? Do they eat shit work and feel like we do? And I often come to the same conclusion, no they don't. They are higher lifeforms than us. We thought us humans were masters of shooting, nay, this new life form is here to shitpost like none other before it. Fallacies and buzzwords are the new weapons of choice, hide yeself from their destructive gaze.

wrong, once a video reaches 1 million view, it gives you guaranteed passive views, at least around 2000 every day or two

so what happens once you have 100 videos? 1000?

thats why those youtubers like vitaliky with only 100 videos but 1+ million per video have guaranteed passive income for life

i know the stats myself cause i got a couple videos with 1 million views each that still get views years after uploaded

Can you explain how you went from nothing to something? I just don't get it.
Do you recommend any tutorials to learn how to do it? everything feels outdated or scammy (they are selling you premium shit on the tutorials)

How was your journey step by step?

Dude I would be happy with 1k USD a day, I can live comfortably with that in my country, I just don't know how the fuck to do it...... FUCk. There's just too much people doing this shit.

What do you think of this?

I draw smut and have a Patreon, gets me an extra ~1k/mo not including whatever commissions I decide to take.

I've been meaning to test out Robinhood and maybe chuck $100 at ethereum lately though.

wtf is smut?

also, why would you invest in ETH? its inflationary

Learn programming. Make shitty phone pay2win phone apps. Start an online store that fills a niche. Make people pay for bullshit psychic readings.

Or get some kneepads and get into sex work. I'm talking hypnosis, financial domination, camwhoring, sugardaddies, that kind of stuff.

Start your very own shitcoin and give it a unique twist that will make investors interested.

>ditch digging.

Best money i have made for the last 20 years. Solid advice annon.

Not even kidding.

Lots and lots of brainstorming. Think of something that a passionate subreddit/Veeky Forums board would get formed around. Also, don't be discouraged by a "lukewarm" product. If you can net $500-1000/mo (which is not very tough) then go for it. The key is not one single great product, but rather building up a portfolio of decent-performing SKUs.

I did not customize my first product, but I did make sure it was a unique design. For my next product I am asking for some small customizations.

For the affiliate site, I purchased it off of an user on this board actually. I had enough savings such that even if I completely lost all of it, I would be fine. I looked at the fundamental metrics and thought I could do more with the site than what it was currently earning and I was correct. When I purchased it, it was making around $200/mo on autopilot.

For FBA, I listened to a fuck ton of podcasts. I had 2 false starts last year and my biggest regret is not actually taking the plunge. Each time some small but not insurmountable problem had stopped me. I told myself "you will set aside this much money and any problem that comes up, treat it as a challenge to be overcome, not a roadblock".

The best thing you can do is consume information WHILE taking action, don't do just one or the other. Look for credible sources that give actionable information. Rarely is any course worth paying for (I would argue that Stack That Money forum is worth it for affiliate marketers, if that's your thing). Look for podcasts, blogs, subreddits and facebook groups in the niche/vertical you are interested in. I'll list some resources I've found useful:

For internet marketing/affiliate site: AuthorityHacker blog and podcast and NichePursuits

For FBA: TheAmazingSeller podcast, AMPM podcast when he isn't shilling his own software/bragging about income, FulfillmentByAmazon subreddit although a lot of people there like to complain.

Facebook groups can be good, but you need to find some with good signal:noise ratio with quality discussions

I live in a very expensive part of the US, so $3k only covers rent and some bills for me. There is not "too many people doing it". You cannot half-ass it and make tons of money, but the market of ecommerce has so much depth that it is retarded and embarrassing to say it is saturated. You need to differentiate yourself in any way you can: better product, different variation, better branding, better customer service, etc. The fee changes do not worry me as I do not operate with razor thin margins.

Fulfillment By Amazon. They handle logistics, shipping and inventory for you (for a fee).

100 videos getting 2000 views a day is like $200...

no joke about 1k a month from my 3 stores

making 6 figures per month
Selling products (I work with guys that make close to 8 figures per month)
That's all I'm saying.

LARP
depends on cpm

>Learn programming
im not aspie enough
>Make shitty phone pay2win phone apps.
same shit as always, you need massive amounts of volume to get people paying
>Start an online store that fills a niche.
how to fill a niche that isnt filled already
>Make people pay for bullshit psychic readings.
how you make people do X when you are nothing and theres 400 other guys that came before you ranked on top (people don't browse shit beyond 3 pages of google results)

>Or get some kneepads and get into sex work. I'm talking hypnosis, financial domination, camwhoring, sugardaddies, that kind of stuff.
no

the only way to give it a twist if you are not a coding aspie that can actually improve the software... its some retarded gimmick, which means its a lottery if the coin goes anywhere and by anywhere i mean a short lived pump and dump like trumpcoin

>I did not customize my first product, but I did make sure it was a unique design.
how did you find something unique in a sea of mass produce chinese crap

Can you describe your journey from being a nobody to making 3k a month step by step?
I don't understand the process. How can you know something will sell and you will not be stuck with crap while paying an amazon fee of $40 a month?

3-5k usd Node.js/ES6/javascript consulting.
I am literal idiot with 2,5 years experience, but with nice website and cold emails.

> Node.js/ES6/javascript consulting

How did you go from 0 to 3-5k?

I can make a nice website tho, yet im poor... so?

how did you get clients, positioning etc? thats where the money is at

HOW DO PEOPLE GET PEOPLE BUYING THEIR SHIT OR CLICKING ADS

That's actually the only non-autistic suggestion I've seen in one of these threads.

I feel the need to share this with someone.
Is it reasonable to think that I could earn 100-500 usd/month based on affiliate marketing in no more than a month?

I realize how vague the question is, and that I need to take into consideration numerous factors, such as the niche potential for marketing, my dedication, luck, and many more, so I'll spill the beans on my plans regardless of the consequences.

I'm building a site revolving around the topic of insomnia
insomnianout.com
I want to mostly focus on amazon affiliate links, and I've been thinking of advertising, sleep, and health products such as herbal ugga bugga tea, ear plugs, sleeping masks, and so on and so forth.

I've had a bad time learning wordpress(php), but I believe I'm starting to get the hang of it.

for anyone with experience in the field would you say my plans are worth a try?

I'm really self-conscious, and can't get the motivation to initiate the plan, and can only imagine and dream of how well it plays out in my mind.

what is the evaluation pls ?

OP u're doomed to lead a wageslave life, the sooner you accept the fact the happier you'll be

>How much are you making mr excel?
More than the $800 mentioned in the OP. The essence of "making" it online, is knowing that you can scale your stuff. If I play my cards right, keep my eyes on the ball, I can double or triple my income. Wagecucks can not do that.

>Alibaba?
For example. Or go deep down on Taobao. Find an angle.

>if it was possible we would all be rich
That is not the topic here. The topic is if you can make a somewhat decent living without having to trek off to some cubicle.

>I tried doing something similar to this last month
>last month
That's your problem right there. I sit around for several months, building giant elaborate constructions. Just spending on food and rent. If you want to do something, and you're not at your 'puter right now, soldiering on, you're not doing it right. I only go to Veeky Forums for 5mins, to clear my head. Veeky Forums is blocked in my regular browser.

For me the trick is: Secure rent and food. If that means renting a garage and eating beans. So be it. Work for a Pajeet wage. Scale it up to Ukrainian wage. Scale it to Spanish wage. Scale it to first world wage. Then scale it higher.
