Hi Bob,

There are lots of ways people make money online. The key is to pick one and give it a shot!

Here are some of the ways...

• Sell stuff on eBay
• Create a subscription-based membership web site
• Create a blog and plan to make money from advertising (eg. Google Adsense)
• Create an online store selling "physical" items (not downloadable items)
• Write ebooks yourself and sell them
• Pay other people to write ebooks (so you own the rights), and sell those ebooks
• Become a master at creating web sites, and sell your web-design services
• Become a master at Search Engine Optimization, and sell your services (this one isn't easy, because it always changes)
• Promote and sell affiliate products
• I'm sure there are many others too...!

Also, posts giving "step by step" methods do come up here every now and then... Here are a couple excellent recent posts like this...

Even if you don't know how to create a web site yourself, you can pay people to do that for you (if you have the money). You can get a pretty good web site created for $500 to $1,000, using freelance programmers and designers. (Use a web site like iFreelance www.ifreelance.com , Scriptlance www.scriptlance.com , Rent a Coder www.rentacoder.com , Elance www.elance.com , and other similar sites to find your freelancers...)

The key is to do something... Get started... Then build from there...
