Does anyone have an online job where they are making money?

I am unemployed, intelligent, well educated, and computer proficient. How can I get a job where I can work online from home without getting ripped off in a money-making scheme? I am only looking for answers from people that ARE making money, not leads to sites where you pay fees for maybe.

    We can't answer this, we have no idea what yo our skills and education are.

    If you want a real job apply at real companies that have real openings for your profession. Explain in your cover letter that you want to work at your home office.

    Actually you can make money working online. The operative word there is working. You may want to check out some work at home blogs that are not spamazations (a little twist on organizations). Remember, if you have to pay for the information it's probably a waste of time and money. I do pretty well and I never pay for work, or respond to the gazillion spam-ads that you may see.

    Yes it's dodgy putting out a question like this because you're seen as a newbie and a target. just about everyone who advises you will give you affilliate links too!

    The best way to make money on line is to get a google adsense account, get a web site, create content and put google ads on. You then get paid per click.

    Here's my advice. First sign up with www.hubpages.com, as you do so you will be asked to sign up with adsense, kontera, amazon and others.

    You will get accepted by some and rejected by others, but the important thing is to get accepted by google. That's why i'm advising signing up through hubpages, because you do need a website before you can sign with google, but they do accept you if you have a hub pages account.

    Once you have the google account (normally 3 or 4 days) you can then use google ads on any site so long as it conforms to their regulations.

    Then i would get some free web hosting http://foreverfree.0lx.net/ will give you an ad free hosting account for nothing, you get 7 sub domains and 7 add on domains, and it's good quality.

    Then, you write articles for hub pages short articles and write full versions on your own sites. People will see the short ones on hub pages (it has loads of traffic) and if you link those articles to your site you get extra traffic and clicks.

    There are other ways to earn on line but most are very involved or very low paying. If you want a solid business idea you can mail me.

    Source(s): p.s. Look below me for examples of affilliate links!

    Have you looked into any of the home-based businesses? Most of them have a reasonable starter fee and get you off the ground with your own business. I'm a Scentsy consultant and having a great time with it.

    Good luck!

    You are asking for spammers to answer your question. LOL, but yes I earn my living online.

    my two are

    1) Forex (currency trading)

    2) Internet Marketing

    Research Google AdSense and Blogging. that should get you headed in the correct direction
