When & How did you make your 1st Dollar$$ Online?

[EKNADC]

Made my first income using Adsense back in 2007... created a site which supposedly gave away free Rapidshare accounts for unlimited downloading.

I did give out 1-2 accounts within a total of a month and then created fakes to keep the people coming back.

Added Adsense on the site even though it was against TOS (don't know how it passed for a month without review) and made $600 in that month.

After 2 months the site made me over $1,000 using Adsense and got 2 checks from them but since I was young and dumb I decided to sell the site...

Sold the site that made me $1k + for $500 to someone on DP and afterwards noticed I could sell the site for 5-7x monthly revenue... I got swindled!

After that site I started a free movie / tv stream site which was making $3-4k every 10 days which I closed after 2 months due to a C&D and the rest was history.

2007 - Now = Earnings of over the last 7 years have been about $100k from Web Development / CPA*Adsense*Affiliate Marketing / Freelancing which isn't shabby for just turning 24 but now I wish I had not been young and dumb and blown every dime on cars, weed, etc. but don't regret it since I had a damn good time.

As fun as it is to make money in many different ways I'm definitely against the whole selling replicas thing and passing them off as real. I have less of a problem with it as long as the customer knows what he's getting.

sold replica nikes on ebay...boy those was the days

Selling "FapTurbo" (best forex product name EVER! Lol) on craigslist. Was making 3+grand a month before all the ghosting and crap hit.

I found BHW while looking for CL alternatives and work arounds.

I made a website when I was about 13 or 14 for all of me and my skateboarding friends. We had our pics and videos, trick tips, etc on the site. I mass emailed skateboarding clothing companies with a simple template that I made claiming that I received a bunch of visitors (which I really didn't). This was about 13 years ago and companies didn't really ask for proof like they would now. They ended up sending me free clothes, skateboards, stickers and I was able to give my skate friends free skateboards and stuff like that. All I had to do in exchange was post their banners on my site and review some of their products.

Those were the days! After that, I sold my first beats online via SoundClick about 8 years ago and made $50 for a beat lease (I was super stoked) and I did that for a few years until the beat market got flooded with producers and MySpace died out, that was my main source of traffic to sell beats as well as my own custom designed website. Now I'm trying to find a new way to make money online since my job market is pretty much non-existent where I live and outsourcing to India has made it hard to do online freelancing.

I currently freelance on oDesk and yes the people from India are taking over but if you find clients in the United States / Canada or even Australia you will be more likely to win the bid for the job since they are wanting work done by a native so it is easier for them to communicate along with time zones etc. I started using oDesk less than 2 weeks ago and made over $200 at this point with a couple hours of work (less than 8...) you just have to find the right clients. I am guessing that is why they give you 20 bids a week and if you are declined or take back your bid they give it back to you.

My rate on bids is about 1 hire for every 5-7 bids that I put in... so in a week I can complete 3-4 jobs for $50+ if I have the time.

I made my first 0.06€ in 2012 with an adsense site that I was trying to rank in Google. It was a site about motivational quotes. The site made total of under 100€ I think before it fell off the first page. To this date it is my second most profitable adsense site I have had

Gaminglagoon & Prizerebel Didn't really make money but I got some free crap from them and that was neat.
