How did you earn your first buck online?



Adult affiliate programs in the 90s via bulk e-mail on lists I got free from friends who had used them up, millions and millions of e-mails sent from my home connection :D Once that dried adult affiliate link injection.

This was in 9th, and 10th grade. I also recall writing AOL programs in VB3 to gather e-mails from chat rooms, and bulk e-mail, but I forget if that was for adult affiliate or something else ;)

Next up was importing from China, and the whole eBay thing while that was hot, and then AdSense when that came out, etc... etc...

Adapt and ride the wave :D
 
there's this new company called AllAdvantage

They have this get paid to toolbar - you can download it and install on your computer and you get paid to watch ads while you surf the web.

OP - you might want to try this.

Looking for motivation on Wf, lol.

YOU ARE WORTHLESS AND WEAK- YOU'RE A MASSIVE COCKSUCKING FAGGOT LOSER, YOU WALKING OFFSPRING OF A SYPHILITIC MONGOLIAN GOAT FUCK.

MAN UP AND MAKE SOMETHING OF YOUR NASTY LITTLE WHINING, NANCY-BOY SELF OR YOU ARE DESTINED TO DIE ON A PARK BENCH SOMEWHERE, SCABIES AND FLEA RIDDEN, SHITTING AND PISSING YOUR PANTS IN AN ALCOHOLIC HAZE.

Motivated yet?
 
My first dollar made online was selling advertising after building a web site, this was pre adsense days. Then it was flipping a couple websites followed by 5 years of running a web hosting company
 
Made my first dollar online around 1.5 years ago...

I found an affiliate program for discount Adwords/FB Ad Vouchers, and started dropping links in the comment section of every single website/blog that showed up for the keyword "buy adwords voucher."

Two days later, I made $2.04. I almost shat myself, considering it was my first attempt at IM.

A month later, I had accumulated over $65 from literally 30 minutes of "work."

Sadly, the copy in my thinly veiled comment spam was probably the best I've ever written... even to this day lol

Craigslist ads, they're a gold mine.

$10 handjob

$20 blowjob

$25 blowjob while fondling balls

Swallow 5 more bucks
 
Selling custom computer parts back when many of them were still hand made.

I had no idea what I was doing (I still have no idea what I am doing) but with a lot of money, perseverance and stubbornness, I managed to eventually turn a profit.
 
started in 04' with copywriting..made my first small fortune in 06, lost it in 08' ..rebuilt it in10' been going strong since
 
Doing rx 10 years ago - I regret not making more that time. It just died slowly.
 
Found a couple of hunters in local classifieds that agreed to give me a buck in exchange for a few blowjobs.
 
Made my first dollar online 15 yrs ago with a pokemon site I started in middle school. Used Microsoft's LinkExchange to get ads to push on my site.

LinkExchange - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Eventually I got banned for having a low quality site. I think advertisers weren't getting much ROI from a bunch of 10-13 yr olds (this was well before shopping online was mainstream) and let's just say as a 12 yr old myself I wasn't strictly adhering to any "best practices" in terms of ad placement.

I then signed up for the now long-defunct AllClicks, which literally gave you a URL and paid 3 cents per click no matter how you got someone to click on the link. You were told to make up whatever anchor text or link whatever picture you wanted, if you got the click, you got 3 cents.

I actually made some decent coin (for that age) with giant text links that said "free pokemon cards" that in all likelihood probably linked to male enhancement products or porn. Fuck a quality score, lol.

would like to hear what happened next and where you are now
