Thousands of dollars in commission? Does the idea sound too good to be true? Well, it’s what people like you and me are earning these days. Thanks to the Internet. Couple of years ago, you’d probably think its gab. But if you have been online lately, you’d have come across hundreds of thousands who have earned millions on the Internet. And it’s not too difficult either. Common people like us have gone from rags to riches by using the medium to the maximum potential. If you are thinking its too late for you to start, then NO! it’s never too late to start. Although the potential of this medium is only burgeoning day by day, there are millions across the globe who have learnt the secrets of making money on the Internet. So if you have to do it, the right time is NOW.

There are various ways to break free from the shackles of a 9 to 5 job. You can now earn from the comforts of your home office in simple ways. The major income providers are:

Selling your own service

If you don’t have a service already, the most difficult part is to develop one. Now what you can develop depends entirely on your skills and budget. If the budget is pretty tight, you can still fall back on your skills. Here are a few popular Internet services:

* Web/Graphics Design
* Copywriting
* Software Development
* Marketing Consultant
* Publicist
* Search Engine Optimization/Submissions

There are lots of people across the world, who are ready to pay for your services. All you have to do is advertise your service at the right place and see people flocking to you for support.

Selling your own product

Developing your own product to market on the Internet isn’t as difficult as you may think. Everybody is good at something. You don’t have to be a Rocket Scientist in order to create your own product. Maybe you have a special talent or some specialized knowledge. Use this knowledge to create a product.

Here are a few subjects to give you some ideas for creating a product

* Recipes
* Cooking
* Sewing Tips
* Gardening
* Canning
* Makeup and Skin Care
* Weight Loss
* Self Improvement
* Health and Fitness
* Child Development
* Teenagers
* Romance
* Dating
* Relationships
* Divorce
* Single Mothers
* Single Fathers
* Teenage Mothers
* Teenage Fathers
* Home Decorating
* Home Remodeling
* Home Maintenance
* Plumbing
* Carpentry
* Small Appliance Repair
* Home Buying
* Auto Mechanics
* Auto Buying
* Home Finances
* Home Business
* Computers
* Internet

Write a small book on the subject. Or, sell your knowledge to portals that need it. Of course, it’s quite a lot of hard work. But that shouldn’t deter you. Right?

Selling someone else's product/service

Also called as affiliate program, this is the easier way to earn cash on the net. Although it might not be as profitable as selling your own product/service, your marketing skills can surely do wonders. As an affiliate, you refer people or prospective buyers to the company you are affiliated to. When someone you referred buys, you get a commission. The catch lies in identifying a niche where you can be number 1 and selling products that are closely related to your niche.

Successful affiliate marketers have their own web sites, which they use effectively by generating ample traffic through innovative strategies. For more info on how you can make more money online, try browsing through these sites:

If you're serious about making money on the Net, follow this link and download your copy of our "Internet X factor" and “Internet Marketing Protégé Program” It is by far the most resourceful Internet marketing tool - and it won't bust your budget. On top of that, it comes with an unconditional money-back guarantee so you can try it risk-free.

Selling advertising space

Once you have a web site that generates ample traffic, advertisers would pay you to display their banners on your site. This is probably one of the oldest and most hyped ways to make money. Although it might not be a great money making idea, it’s till worth a try.

Keep surfing…

If you are serious about building a huge enterprise on the net, this is not the right money making option. But if you want to make some extra bucks without investing any money or even extra time, then this is what you should be looking at. The best part of this money making option is that you don’t have to do anything extraordinary. You will be paid to surf the net, read emails, answering surveys, etc. The catch however is that you are bombarded with advertisements.

For more on this, type "getting paid to surf" into the search box at Google and hit "Enter". Take your pick.

Are these as simple? Of course they are. Only, you need to be in the business wholeheartedly and devote enough time to make it work. Even when you drive the new generation cars, the least you are expected is to gas it up, change gears, and push the accelerator. But that’s about it. A little concentration and you can join the exclusive club of Internet millionaires.
