Back to making money online

Hey guys, to make it short i just want people to share ideas or something about the ways they are making money or the way they think is best for 2017. The reason i'm asking this is because i have been away from making money online for about 3 years, before i used CPA + Youtube but i don't see many threads about it so i wondered if someone could just get me be "back on track" and share some tips on what i should do this time.

... and i prefer the "legal" way and i'm ready to work for it!

Basically alot of the same things still work, but at the same time most of them don't anymore. I know that sounds vague but thats literally how I felt coming back after a 3 year break myself.

Instagram is much bigger, and a steady way to gain a following, but not good for easy money, it takes work to build up. SEO is still working but it takes alot more natural link building and not as much spam, although SEO spam will always be a thing.

Most of the same CPA offers that we used to see are still around, OGAds is a good content locker that wasn't big back then, but also there are alot of other options.

I would say right now it seems that Droppshipping and e-commerce is really hot. There are more and more Print or Product on Demand services like Amazon publishing, T-shirt printing that open up new options. I will say at last that it takes time to get back in, but you will be glad you did. If you made mistakes last time learn from them, I try to.

I believe everything still works to a certain extent. However if I would have to say anything, I would have to go with Instagram and SEO. I have also tried dropshipping this month actually made around 3 sales above around $100 or more each so it's quite achievable. You just have to put the work in to see the results.

If you want something for long term then instead of instagram, I'd say create a website, rank and monetize it with adsense or some affiliate..

Thanks alot for the replies guys, will look into it! Any more suggestions people?
