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

I earned my first few buck online about 2 months ago. It was on Fivver and at the same time I discovered Mturk, which is nice when youre bored.

$0.01 is a place to start.. Maybe I'll try them again one of these days.
 
Mine were from an Astrology website. Wrote my own whole novel system of astrology for it.
 
That's really cheap depending how long of an article you're talking about. I could never do that because I'm the one outsourcing that kind of thing most of the time.

Made $2 in June 2009 with writing two articles for someone from freelancer. I don't know why I did not scale it up and wasted all this time with university and some internships :D Recently, I have been motivated to get back at it again and scale big time.

i made my first few bucks on microworkers many years ago with adsence.
 
Made over $500 as independent contractor after a few short months on odesk (now upwork) in the mid 2000's and moved on to IM since then.

How life has changed!

My first actual income that I made online was back around 1999 and was a money order or check for like $42.95 I believe. Out of that amount my commission was something like $22, either that or $18 its hard to remember which.

The method was simply selling 900# phone lines where the customer could set up any kind of line that they wanted from a set list of things like psychic hot line, baseball stats, or even phone sex. Once set up they would make like $1 per minute or something like that depending on the type of line. This was easy money for me because all I had to do back then was post a few text ads to a bunch of ffa (free for all) websites and within a week or two I would see the money orders and checks coming in. Unfortunately I was a typical lazy 17/18 year old so I never really pushed it even though I found a gold mine for that time.

Ok so how about you guys? What was your first income online no matter how big or small?

Last year i got around $3500 for follow the design competition...this is unbelievable
 
Way back 2009. Freelancing on freelance websites. I earned small at first but when I established a good profile, I was earning more.
Elance, Odesk (now upwork) etc. :D
 
I found microjobs were a good way to invest money in advertising/seo work without paying anything. Just do microjobs to build up money to then spend by hiring others to do microjobs for you.

I remember getting like $1,100 sent to my PayPal last summer, it was such a good feeling. I was involved in eBay and drop shipping, basically I was just re selling electronics at hiked up prices. The dude liked my pseudo business model and played me for the cash, lol it's ruthless out here. Trust yourself, no one else. These women are replaceable and these partners are too, I might be cold hearted but I take that any day over someone who compromises their life goals for childish emotions and short term prospects :). Long term mentality, baby..
 
made my first dollar was from marketing mobile app development back in 2012, first project was for $2500 ( was paid in 1/3's at a time), was the best best feeling ever!!
 
I remember when software keys were pretty big but I never got into it cause I never found a reliable supplier.
