If you are looking at making money online and you are new to the industry, chances are high that you are feeling overwhelmed with the sheer quantity of content and sources for making money online.

To make it easier for you, just think about it this way. There are only THREE ways to make money only. These broad categories are:

1. Selling your own product or service online – “Internet Marketing”
2. Selling other people’s product or service online – “Affiliate Marketing”
3. Selling advertisements from your online websites – “Pro-Blogging” or “Publishing Niche Sites”

All three ways work and they are many proven models for each category. Here’s a tip for you, if you want to get started putting some real dollars in your bank account – pick ONE category and apply it. Don’t look at any other sources until you start seeing some dollars in your bank account.

I’ve seen so many new-commers jump from one model to another. The truth is, if you can at least put a few dollars in your account from one of the 3 categories above, trying different models will only give you more pain.

At the end of the day – all three categories work, its just a matter of which business model you are most HAPPY doing.
