Is there a single decent tutorial on how to make money online on the internet?

[Lithium]

There are a lot of scam sites and they all promise wonderful things. But what I need to see is a simple yet insightful e-book / site that shows you a very short tutorial of making the money. Do you know anything about that? Or is it simply an impossible idea?

I've looked into this and I really don't believe that there is anything out there. Everywhere I check its another scam; if I ever find one, or create one, it will be one happy day. Maybe someone else would have some ideas.

I'd recommend Blackhatworld. They have COUNTLESS resources available for something like this.

There is nothing really out there, but what is out there is a market. You need to come up with a niche and market that niche, that's how you'll make money. And that way you won't get a method on a money making tutorial and it won't work because a million other people know the method too.

There are quite a few blogs and forums that suggest sites and different ways to earn money online. I, on the other hand, do my research if I found out a new possible money making opportunity online. I can't just rely on one blog and one forum post. I need to read more than one review on a certain site. Once I read a great number of reviews on certain sites, that's when I decide if I'll join the site or not.

I always have to measure the pros and cons of each website.

I think before you try looking for a "decent" guide on how to make money online, you should first decide what is it that you exactly want? Because there are lots of way to earn money online hence there are also lots of guides available online.

Also, I'm very certain that you will never find a short tutorial because establishing a good system to make good money online is a long process, there are no short cuts and definitely no freebies. You have to invest your time or your money or both.

There's no tutorial and no guide. You have to scrape together reliable information using forums and articles, and doing a lot of site research and planning. It's easy to find suggestions for how to make money online, but you're going to find that some suggestions have less than honorable intentions---getting referrals is a big part of the money making pie, after all. Even legitimate sites that I use offer insane monetary compensation for a referral, much more than just doing the job for them.

I don't think it's impossible, but it surely isn't plausible in my opinion. Someone who has gotten rich and successful off of one particular method likely wouldn't want to have too many competitors in the same stream and thus risking it become over saturated. Even if he or she did share the method, it would most likely come with a high enough price to compensate for the amount that the person would likely get from the profit stream, and even then I'd be skeptical that all the information would be shared. I think the best way to go about it is to just become as creative as these pioneers and find a unique enough path or at least follow a tried and tested one and at least be the best at it.

If there would be an easy "how-to-make-money" guide which would work, it wouldn't be around too long.
Because when it would be really that easy to follow, then everyone was doing it and soon it wouldn't be profitable anymore.

Just try to be a bit innovative in the already established ways of making some money. Try giving it your own twist.

The problem with any guide is that it would only be accurate on the day it was made. Many of the internet sites that genuinely pay money do well for a short period of time and eventually fail or decrease the payments to a trickle. For a period of time you could have banner ads playing on the bottom of the screen and get a couple dollars an hour just for having the computer on. That dropped to a couple bucks a day and eventually disappeared.

As a rule, you will do better earning less over a longer period of time as the great offers really are too good to be true.
