The Ultimate Beginners Guide

There are hundreds of ways to make a buck online. Some are worth your time, and some aren’t. Some are temporary ways to make a few extra dollars, and some are ways to provide lasting income for the rest of your life. To clearly show you all of your options, I have put together this, the Ultimate Guide to the Internet Money Making Scene:

First, here is a way you can visualize what I am about to explain:

Here you can see the first great divide in the online money making scene: passive vs. active income.

Passive Income

Passive income is income that requires little to no maintenance. For example, $1000 a month in passive income means you would make that $1000 whether you were sitting at your desk, on the beach, or traveling around the world.

Passive income is something that many people are striving for when it comes to making money on the internet.

Active Income

Active income is income that is directly related to the amount of work you do. Similar to a day job, you trade your time for money.

For example, you could agree to write a 400 word article for someone online in return for $5.00. Once you write the article and receive your money, that’s it. If the person posts the article online and sells ads on it, eventually making hundreds of dollars, you still only get your $5.00.

Active income is for people that just want to make a quick buck and forget about it. It is not a substantial business to strive for.

Which Type Of Income Is Right For You?

This is not a clear cut answer. It depends on your personal goals. As I said, if you are just looking for a quick way to make $50 so that you can buy a new video game or concert ticket, than you may want to look at active income opportunities.

However, if your goals are to make a substantial income from the internet, you should be focusing on a passive income strategy. For the most part, this website will be devoted to teaching you passive income methods, rather than active. We do have information on active income opportunities, but the true value you will find in this site will come from our passive income information.

So which will it be?
