With this method, you can earn some money. Nothing big but it can make you some side income.

We will be using games and bots to farm items/gold for us and then we will sell it to websites. To start, I recommend an investment of $40. Which game will work? I will use Final Fantasy XIV for this method but you can choose whatever game you want as long as it is an online game that lets you trade in-game currency.

. Investment: You will need: - $6.5 per month for the bot; - $20 for FFXIV game + $13 per month. Which BOT is this?

Here you will find more info about buying and setting up the bot we will use.

Monetization: You will spend $40 per month and receive up to $150 so it's a profit of $110 per month. You can easily escalate this by buying more copies of the game and more bots. If you do this 10 times you can certainly reach $1100 per month by just leaving a bot running.

Here is a list of websites where you can sell your in-game earnings.

Is there any people that really makes a living out of that? I was thinking getting into this stuff, as it really became hot these days.
 
Seems like it'll break even for the costs to run the bot :anyway:
 
If your PC can run 10 Instances of the game at the same time and wirh different IPs, you can make some cash.

You just have to make sure you arent getting banned. Otherwise you will have to start over and over again.

Also: Cinese Gold Farmers will always be cheaper. They do it for ages.

Its actually not worth it at all.

You will probably earn more running a bitcoin faucet bot....
 
Tried it 10 times. All accounts banned.
You don't learn much doing this.
Not worth imo.
 
FFXIV is a bad game to sell gold and earn money, Square enix ban alot accounts for this reason
 
Can u share a video that explains the method, I am a noob at botting stuff.
 
any suggestions for games other than final fantasy ?
 
Do there is any chance to ban your account or something like this for botting? I think they will find out, that you are using bots...
 
I used to do this with World of Warcraft before Blizzard started selling gold themselves, and it was definitely a good source of income especially when a new expansion was released and the in-game economy got a soft reset. I used to get banned a few times a year but would just buy a new game license and level up again using the bot :)
You should look for games where new expansions/seasons/leagues are released and the economy gets wiped (like Path of Exile) because in those games the Chinese bot farms cannot drive the prices down too much.

There is always a chance for bans, OSRS it is suicide botting .

Basically botting till the account get banned an re creating new ones
 
OSRS bot farm were quite popular even these days. They're also quite easy to manage
 
Back in 2005, I made a decent buck out of an MMORPG called "Silkroad," where I was botting 5 accounts to earn the in-game currency SILK.

I easily made 1.5 to 2 grand a month and sometimes more on good months if I was lucky enough to get expensive loot/drops from mobs, which was eventually sold to in-game players in exchange for SILK.

I was still too young back then to even have a bank account, but I was able to connect to gamers locally and meet them face to face for a P2P exchange.

PS: Back then, I had a hard time convincing my parents that I was not a drug dealer. lmao

Months later, I was able to develop a simple macro that was using pixel-detection along with a packet sniffer. It was pretty simple, yet I knew that it would sell like hotcakes, but again I was too young to legally sell on eBay or even have a PayPal account.

So I made a deal with an older friend to use his PayPal account to be able to sell on eBay for exchange of 15% of the money as a commission, and he agreed. I was selling the bot for $30 on eBay, and I was making 20-30 sales a day which totals up to $400/day of pure profit after deducting all fees and my friend's commission.

Sadly though, in 2017, eBay decided to frown upon digital purchases/downloads, and this is where my business went to an end.

I never gave up, and instead, I launched my very first website in 2007, where I was selling this silrkroad bot along with MMORPG guides. I never got any sales for the first 6 months as I was not much aware of SEO. As I started reading/learning and implementing, I was able to rank #1 for all keywords relevant to my website: "Silkroad Bot," "Silkroad Guide," "World of Warcraft Guide," "Eve Online Guide," "Guild Wars Guide," "Lord of the Rings Online Guide," etc......

I was easily making a $400+/day back then, and my interest in SEO went beyond the roof, which is when I launched my first SEO company and starting exploring tons of money-making ideas (CPA, Affiliate Marketing, etc....) since I was always able to get any keyword on page 1 of Google.

When I was 14 years old, I always daydreamed of making $1,000/mo. A couple of years later, I was able to make $5,000/day on good days.

It's a long story of commitment, dedication, and never giving up, and I advise everyone to explore and try any money-making method. Even if it ends to be a complete failure, you will definitely learn a thing or two throughout the process that will help out in understanding how shit works!

Good luck to anyone reading this. Hopefully, it motivates you. :)
