Nowadays you can get access to plenty of easy-to-learn strategies that make money online. It actually is really easy to make money online, if you are able to make a plan and stick to it. In fact, quite a bit of what you can do offline, you can do online just as effectively, if not more so - and with practically no overhead costs! You can buy and sell on ebay, do contract work, publish your writing, do consulting, provide web design services, or even do good-old MLM, just to name a few of the countless possibilities.
Blogs, forums, social networking, ebay and Craigslist are just a few of the ways in which you can let the online public know about your business or service. Of course, the greatest challenge online is getting visitors to your website. But that's compensated for by the fact the your marketplace is world-wide, 24/7! For example, if you own a lighting fixture store in Houston, Texas, how many people from around the world will have any way to visit it? But if that same shop is an online store, you can sell lamps in Finland, Fuji or Frankfurt! There's a lot to learn, such as email marketing, SEO optimization, finding niche markets, website creation & hosting, etc., but it's all worth it once you have a functioning business that will keep growing for years to come.
Needless to say, much of what you need can be hired out. Web designers, content writers, ad/ebook-cover designers and SEO services are all available, depending upon your start-up budget. But if running a business isn't your thing, you can still get plenty of work-from-home ideas at websites like genuinejobs. Just watch out for sites that want you to pay a fee in order to scan job listings or contact the sources of the listings. Those are rip-offs. In fact, there are plenty of scam-artists out there who are after the money of unsuspecting newbies. Be careful, study-up on what you'd like to do and accept the fact that there's a learning curve and some dues that have to be paid before you can genuinely begin earning regular monthly income. But that's with anything in life, right?
If all of this sounds too 'difficult', think about it the next time you are fighting traffic to and from work, your boss is looking over your shoulder, that obnoxious office gossip involves you again, there are new rumors of layoffs, you're thinking about money for retirement, etc.. They're all great motivators and should help propel you forward to the online success that you've been dreaming about.
