Made a blog about a healthcare product and monetized with Adsense. My first check was $110 and I was beyond excited. Then I went on to adult affiliate marketing, but I won't go into that... lol
 
You and I both wish that. But I would have to go back with the knowledge I have now and I would have been a millionaire that first year without a doubt.

Nice. My friend tried that because he thinks he's so great at it but I don't think he won anything.

In 2014 April month, I just made my first online payment $25 from (Tumblr+Advertising). And still this method is working for me.
 
Yeah remember dial up, man it would take hours to navigate around today.

Early 2000's when internet was just dial up connection. Earned it through webdesign. Should have gotten a degree on arts or advertising! but its all good.

Nice! Yeah adsense is great passive income and I'm thinking about making a thread about it at some point.

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.

I started in 1998. There was a website called Beenz.com which gave you beenz, an online currency, for completing offers, surveys, email submits etc. I used to collect beenz and redeem it for gift coupons and cash.
 
Yeah , first $ won was as VA, but some of us are so lazy to do something , it is better to make everything automatic :D
 
Haha, yeah it's been a long time for some of us. Youtube is a goldmine and it's well worth it to push that envelope to the max.

Wow 1999... Some of you guys have been at this since I was in kindergarten.

I joined a website called LikeNation in June 2013. I got a 10% cut of a $100 point package one of the people I referred to their website bought. That was about the same time I discovered BlackHatWorld and its all been uphill ever since. I've been making chunk change from YouTube for a few years though. It was never that much so I don't count it.

In my first salary from google adsense in the year 2013, that moment is very awesome
 
I would probably say my first cents were made with Adsense, brings back memories !
 
My first 40$ I made from cam shows, lol jk.
I was doing 1 on 1 language teaching on Skype.
 
Yeah that time in a social websites beginnings are always such a golden period before they crack down on us who exploit the system.
