Where does money come from on the Internet, and who will pay you?
I think this is the main thing in today's article that you need to understand. Let's go in order so as not to get confused.
What is earnings?
We all spend money every day in our lives, purchasing various goods and services, for example, food, clothing, paying for entertainment, education, a roof over our heads, etc.
To do this, we have to work somewhere and do something, somehow earn money. Each of us works somewhere, and if he doesn’t work yet (I can assume that schoolchildren and teenagers will read the article), then your parents or those who provide for you work for you.
Where do you work? Or did you work? Maybe you were fired and you decided to start looking for money on the Internet and don’t know where to start. What does your organization that you work for or have worked for do?
There are only two possible answers:
- Produces or sells some product.
- Provides some kind of service.
The point is that if you are paid a salary, then this organization is selling something. This product or service is bought by other people who need it. It turns out that you are paid by the people whose problems you solve.
The Internet works in exactly the same way, only here you cannot produce any physical goods, but through it you can sell goods. So, the entire Internet works by selling some goods and services. Advertises them in every possible way.
All earnings on the Internet are based on helping someone sell something. A simple example is the VKontakte website, which everyone uses, or the search engines Yandex and Google. The main income of owners and developers is advertising.

What is advertising and what types does it come in marketing: detailed classification with examples
Hello dear readers! Everyone knows about advertising, but only a few...
How do you think they earn millions of dollars?
We use them for free for our own interests (to have fun, learn something, chat with friends, etc.), while looking at thousands of advertising banners that we no longer notice, and then we come to the store and buy some that's the thing. Whoever sells this product pays huge amounts of money for advertising.
As a result, all earnings on the Internet are as follows:
- You create a project with an audience of users in order to make money by selling advertising or selling your goods and services.
- You work for those who create such projects and sell something.
Both methods have their pros and cons, we will talk about them further.
How to maintain friendship?
When you find your virtual friend, you will have to try hard not to miss the thread of communication. Don't stop communicating if you don't agree or on other trifles. Don't push your friend away if he makes contact. If now is not the time to talk, tell him so, but don't ignore his messages.
Make jokes, send each other notes and photos, this will help maintain communication if you have nothing going on and nothing to tell, perhaps in this way you will find a new topic for communication.
Don’t be shy to write to your friend first, there’s nothing wrong with that, because he’s your friend. Show interest in him, ask how he is doing. Call sometimes using Skype or instant messengers, a real voice will significantly reduce the distance between you. It's always nice to hear a friend's voice.
Try to surprise your friend. For example, write a letter, send a small parcel or order delivery to his home, perhaps flowers or a toy, a cake or any other little thing. Despite the fact that you did not present this gift, you chose it, this is very nice.
Yes, write letters. Picking up a letter that a friend has carefully written out is very touching. Don't forget about important dates, birthdays or days of acquaintance. Memory and a small, albeit virtual, postcard are very nice. Talk to your friend if he feels bad or sad. It's a pity that you can't come to him, but try to console him with words or call him, it will help.
We are sure that you will find our advice useful on how to find friends on the Internet, how to behave and how to maintain communication with them. Despite the fact that virtual friendship implies a long distance between you, if you really want to, then one day you can meet.
Making money on the Internet - my myth and reality
When I understood how the entire Internet works and where the money comes from, my view of it completely changed. You can earn money here in the same way as in ordinary life. Knowledge and skills are also required.
I also realized then that many processes are moving to the Internet; it is developing very quickly. New areas of activity and professions are emerging, thanks to which you can earn money without leaving home. Woke up, had breakfast and sat down to work. There is no need to go to the office and sit there and do the same thing from 10 to 17:00, and even spend a couple of hours on the road and getting ready.
It’s getting to the point where some people don’t even need a computer; one phone is enough to earn money. I met one girl while traveling who worked from her phone. I was involved in promoting traditional businesses (restaurants, sports centers, beauty salons, etc.) through Instagram. Yes, it turns out that this is possible.
According to 2020 research, about 1,000,000 people are now working remotely in Russia, which is 0.6% of the total population. While, for example, in the USA this percentage reaches almost 10%. This figure will only grow in the near future, I think you yourself understand why.
Therefore, you need to start mastering skills in some area right now.
The main advantages of working on the Internet
There are quite a lot of advantages, but we will highlight the most important ones:
1. First of all, working on the Internet gives you freedom. When working from home, you set your own work schedule.
2. You don't depend on other people's decisions and you don't have a boss. You have the right to choose when to rest and when to work.
3. The amount of earnings directly depends on your efforts. Over time, with effort and learning new skills, your income will only increase.
4. Working on the Internet can be combined with your current employment or study. In your free time from work, you can work on the Internet.
Now about investments
Friends, who are looking for how to make money on the Internet without investment. I would like to say a few words about the belief that to create some of the methods of earning money that I describe below, you need financial investments. Yes, I’ll be honest, in most cases you need to invest money to speed up the development process, but you can do it without a penny.
Have you seen the movie “The Social Network” about Facebook? In which the real story of the creation of this multi-billion dollar project was filmed. Even it was created without a penny of investment by the author, or rather, there were small investments to rent servers for the site, but Mark Zuckerberg borrowed them from his dorm neighbor.
Most successful projects were started penniless. Based on just the idea of doing something and the desire. Opportunities appear along the way.
That's it, let's get down to business.
"Hot" advanced search from Google. 16 ways
I have already touched on some methods above, others not yet. For completeness, I present the entire list.
Exclusion from Google search
To exclude any word, phrase, symbol, etc. from search results, just put a “-” (minus) sign in front of it, and it will not appear in the search results. For example, I entered the following phrase into the search bar: “free hosting - ru” and in the search results there is not a single .ru site, except for paid advertisements.
Search by synonyms
Use the “~” symbol to search for similar words to the selected one. For example, as a result of the expression: “~best movies are the best,” you will see all links to pages containing synonyms for the word “best,” but none of them will contain this word.
Vague Search
In case you have not decided on a specific keyword to search, the “*” operator will help. For example, the phrase “best * image editor” will select the best editors for all types of images, be it digital, raster, vector, etc.
Search to choose from options
Using the “|” operator, you can perform a Google search on multiple combinations of phrases, replacing multiple words in different places. For example, let’s enter the phrase “buy a case | pen” will give us pages containing either “buy a case” or “buy a pen”
Meaning of the word
To find out the meaning of a particular word, just enter “define:” in the search line and after the colon the desired phrase.
Exact match
To find an exact match of the search results with the query, it is enough to enclose the keywords in quotation marks.
Search a specific site
To search for keywords on only one site, just add the following syntax to the search phrase - “site:”.
Backlinks
To find out the location of links to the site of interest, just enter the following syntax: “links:” and then the address of the site of interest.
Unit converter
The Google search engine can also convert values at the user's request. For example, we need to know how much 1 kg is in pounds. We type the following query: “1 kg in pounds”
Currency Converter
In order to find out the exchange rate at the official rate, type the following search query: “1 [currency] to [currency]”
City time
If you want to find out the time for any city, then use the syntax: “time” or the Russian equivalent of “time” and the name of the city.
Google calculator
Google can count online! Just type the example into the search bar and it will give you the result.
Search by file type
If you need to find something by a specific file type, Google has a “filetype:” operator that searches by given file extension.
Finding a cached page
Google has its own servers where it stores cached pages. If you need exactly this, then use the operator: “cached:”
City weather forecast
Another Google search operator is the weather operator. Just enter “weather” and the city, and you will see whether it will rain or not
TOP 20 ways to make money on the Internet
It was difficult to classify them somehow, but I had to sort them out according to the same principle.
- Business. Creation of projects. Internet entrepreneurship.
- Distant work. Freelancing.
- Earnings for schoolchildren.
- Deception. Risk. Games.
I won’t go through everything in detail, I’ll try to explain only the essence of each method and how to make money from it. We will go deeper into them in separate articles and free instructions.
Business. Creation of projects. Internet entrepreneurship
In this section, there are ways in which you can have the highest earnings and passive income, but in order for them to appear, you may have to work on them for more than one year. And it’s not a fact that your business will enter the market and generate income.
Let's start with something simple and clear.
Online store
Creating an online store and selling goods through it is, I think, the most understandable way for beginners to make money on the Internet. Are there still people who have never bought anything online? Not counting the adult generation, which does not know how to use a computer.
An online store is a complex multi-process business. You need to find suppliers, create a website, advertise it somewhere to attract buyers, process orders, send goods and much more. We won’t go deeper, I know that 99.9% of people won’t do this.
Sale and resale of goods, auctions
This is a simplified way to make money from an online store. You don’t need a store website; you can get by with other sources of product sales advertising:
- Advertising and announcement sites like Avito or Yula (k42wBV - promotional code for promoting advertisements).
- Social media.
- Sending messages.
- Forums, various Internet portals.
- One-page sites.
How does this usually happen? Chinese goods are purchased or goods are purchased at wholesale prices from manufacturing companies and sold at retail to people at 2-3 or more times the price.
It’s another matter when you create a product with your own hands (for example, make souvenirs from stone or knit colored socks) and sell it through the same advertising sources on the network. You send it to customers by mail and receive 100% payment for your work. Reliable and proven option.
Creation of services, programs and applications
Another difficult, in my opinion, income that is not accessible to everyone. But I couldn’t talk about him.
What is an Internet service? Well, for example, the same well-known Avito is a service that helps some people sell unnecessary things, and others buy.
Useful computer programs that you use, most of them are not free and were developed by someone. Various applications are the same.
Here, either you are a programmer yourself, or you can find a programmer who will implement your idea for money or a percentage of future profits.
Service Agency
If you have organizational skills, you don't have to figure things out on your own. You can hire a specialist who will do the work for you, and you will find him clients and pay him a salary from the profit received.
Examples of what such agencies can do:
- Website development.
- Design.
- Translations and writing texts.
- Promotion of websites and social networks.
- Advertising, etc.
Yes, the niches are highly competitive, but you can do something unique even in these niches and earn big money by completely managing everything remotely.
THAT'S ALL, then there are more interesting and accessible methods for everyone to make money on the Internet.
Information sites
Do you often read news or articles on the Internet like this? Are you looking for an answer on how to do it, how to do it, all sorts of recipes, etc.?
So you find the answers on such information sites, I also combine it with a personal blog. In addition to useful articles, I write about various life events and travels.
Anyone can create such a website in a couple of hours with a minimal investment of a few hundred rubles. But to fill it with high-quality material, promote it and start making money on it - you already need to make an effort, and a considerable one.
From scratch, from my own experience, I can say that in a year you can achieve an income of 20 - 30 thousand rubles per month or more.
Earnings from the site come from selling advertising or goods and services. It's simple, as I told you at the beginning. You recommend a product in your articles, then visitors come, read your content and buy it. The percentage of the sale is yours.
The most interesting thing is that all the materials on such a site work for you online 24 hours a day, creating passive income. A little later, when I finish the course on YouTube, I will write for you step-by-step instructions on how to create a profitable website.
The largest knowledge base on creating and promoting your information website
More details
Training and information business
Information business is the sale of information (educational courses, trainings, webinars) on various topics. For example, you know how to play the balalaika well and can teach another person to play it.
The essence of this income is that you can create sequential lessons, package them into a course “How to learn to play the balalaika” and sell them for a certain amount on the World Wide Web.
You don’t have to record lessons, but teach people live through modern means of communication, such as Skype or webinar rooms (if there are several students at once).
A higher level of information business is producing . Find a talented person who, for example, knows how to play the balalaika, help him create a course and then sell this course yourself, paying his fee to the author.
Creating videos, books, music This creative way of making money on the Internet, I also think, should be on this list.
You write an interesting book and sell it online, many people do this and make money. Some people create cartoons, post them on YouTube and make money, others create games, graphics, photographs, music, which can also be sold for money on services special for this.
Consulting
To some extent, consulting can also be called an information business. If you are a lawyer, psychologist, doctor, astrologer or an expert in some matter, a good option for you to make money on the Internet is to consult people.
Today, this type of consultation via the Internet is becoming more and more in demand than in person. Again, there is no need to go anywhere or waste time.
Payment can be accepted through the website or directly through electronic wallets and a bank card. You can also advertise your services through all available methods.
YouTube
I also decided to make this area a separate proven way of earning money, since I know many (very many) people who earn money only through YouTube.
They created their own channel on some topic, record videos and similarly advertise something in these videos for money. Cool? Do you watch videos on YouTube?
Here are instructions on how to start running your channel.
Blogging
Blogging is now at the peak of development in Russia and the world. You can maintain your blog on various resources:
- Your own website (There are free ones, for example, LiveJournal).
- Video blog on YouTube.
- Public VKontakte, Facebook.
- Instagram page.
- E-mail newsletter.
These are the best and most popular.
People are interested in following the lives of others, especially when they are doing something cool and entertaining.

The earnings of popular bloggers go off scale, hundreds and millions of rubles a month. They are watched and trusted. Therefore, their advertising is the most expensive and profitable for various companies.
Only a few are able to share their personal lives and gather an audience around them. I, too, once couldn’t even post a photo of myself on a social network; I’m already silent about the caption. Well, before that time was like this, the Internet was just appearing.
And now, if someone writes to me on VKontakte with a picture on their avatar, I don’t even respond, most likely it’s a bot or some kind of hater.
Social media
Groups and public pages on social networks with a large audience of subscribers are also very good earnings. Humor, quotes, travel and much more, what we scroll through in the news feed every day and repost on our wall.
Everything is done to attract subscribers and make money by selling advertising posts.

Virtual friends
When communicating on social networks with our friends and loved ones, we often come across the pages of people from other cities, countries living several thousand kilometers away. Virtual communication that has no boundaries and erases distance allows us to view their pages, follow their lives on the Internet and, of course, communicate and make friends.
Friendship on the Internet is romantic, mysterious and has many advantages, but the Internet cannot provide us with the opportunity to take our friend by the hand and hug him.

Where to start earning money?
Well, now you know how you can make money. Where are you planning to start? Which direction did you like?
I'll tell you how I started. Well, first of all, I came across cheats and methods for schoolchildren, because they are basically written about in all the articles on this topic. Then I started following the guys who traveled around the world, they introduced me to remote work, which they themselves were doing.
I began to master the profession of administrator of VKontakte communities, found and led several groups on construction and club topics. At the same time, I began to study copywriting and creating websites on the WordPress platform. I studied everything from scratch.
year 2014. Bali Island. My first solo trip.
Realizing that I definitely wanted to learn how to earn money remotely, I made a decision and quit my regular job (working as an installer), cutting off all sources of stable income. It was tough, but the situation allowed me; for those who have a family and children, I would advise combining them at first.
The first few months my income ranged from 2 to 10 thousand rubles per month. Gaining more and more experience and knowledge, earnings began to stabilize and grow. While making custom websites on WordPress and minor corrections, I became acquainted with the opportunity to make money on an information website.
I first launched my first blog (it no longer exists). Then this one. At the same time, I began to get acquainted with other methods and slowly study and try them. After a year of working with the blog, it began to bring in the first income of 5 - 10 thousand rubles per month. Further more.
I think you should also become a specialist in some field, and, by combining, try, discover ways to earn money from the first section of the article. Now there are many paid and free courses in every niche, you can buy or download.
Some tips for a beginner
Like any other work, online work requires certain conditions and technical support. So, for all types of earning money on the Internet you will need:
- Internet with high speed and preferably unlimited;
- excellent antiviral system;
- the ability to work at least 3–4 hours every day (otherwise “the game isn’t worth the candle”);
- understanding that you yourself set tasks that you are obliged to fulfill;
- Be careful when looking for work on the Internet so as not to suffer from scammers.
Having discovered a certain web resource that offers any type of income, first of all, take the trouble to find reviews about it. And this needs to be done on several sites, since the possibility of fake comments of a positive nature, which were bought for money, cannot be ruled out.
According to some, making money on the Internet is as easy as taking something that just asks for it in your hands
Which methods should definitely not be used?
Some options for working on the Internet will not only not allow you to earn money, but can also cause you to lose existing money and time. The first rule to remember before looking for a job on the Internet: never believe in the possibility of a “freebie”! Otherwise, you will become a real treasure for scammers. To avoid this, first of all, do not rush to loud banners with phrases like: “Earn a million today!” “Quick earnings without difficulty!”, “How I earn thousands of dollars a month online,” etc.
Among these risky and useless ways to make money, we highlight:
- work on the Forex exchange;
- earnings from games;
- installation of a program for automatic earnings;
- an offer to make money on electronic payment systems;
- financial pyramids.
Earnings on Forex
Trying to make money on Forex is dangerous because you will inevitably have to invest your own funds, and considerable ones at that. Although today there are a lot of resources offering courses on teaching strategies for working on this exchange, the likelihood that they will help you is extremely low.
To really make money in this way requires remarkable knowledge of modern world economics and politics, the ability to think strategically and the willingness to become bankrupt at any moment. The advertisement claims that with the downloaded application you will receive a huge amount of money with a minimal investment. But for the most part, your profit is a matter of chance, and behind the thousands who have become rich there are millions who have become poor.
The Forex exchange is one of the riskiest types of making money on the Internet, although it is often presented as the simplest way to get rich
Earnings from games
This type of online work is the living dream of any gamer, because everyone would like to have fun while earning money. And everything seems to sound quite logical when you are offered to withdraw in-game money earned during gaming into real currency. At the same time, you need to invest your own funds to receive investments from them. In fact, all this is needed to promote the game and attract new users.
In fact, when the time comes to withdraw money, you will receive a notification about:
- hacking of the system or your account;
- blocking your account;
- missing hidden points for withdrawal, which are unknown where to earn;
- ordinary impossibility of withdrawing money.
The main feature of games with money withdrawal is that for the first time you can always withdraw the money you invested or earned. This is done to convince current and potential game participants of their honesty. But subsequent conclusions become impossible.
Installing a program for auto-earnings
Loud and attractive advertising offers you to download a special program that allows you to earn fabulous money. All you need to do is download a profitable application and install it on your computer. Needless to say that this program is most often paid?
In addition, by installing unknown files for yourself, you risk becoming a victim of hackers and spammers. They may be exposed to your payment information, confidential documents, and much more. Not to mention that you can infect your computer with dangerous viruses.
A classic type of fraud for beginners - programs for automatic earnings
Offer to make money on electronic payment systems
For some novice Internet users, it seems quite logical to make money exactly where real money is circulating - on electronic payment systems. This is where scammers can profit.
So, you may receive an email, supposedly from the site where you created your wallet, asking you to clarify your login and password. Don't even read such letters. If you have any doubts, write to the technical support service of your payment system.
You may be offered to download a paid program for hacking web wallets. This is complete nonsense - no one would trust their money to a system that could not protect it from such programs. And the entire Internet would be buzzing about such an event. You may also be offered to buy numbers of wallets containing large sums of money, which is also a 100% scam.
Quick and easy earnings: financial pyramids
All such online structures are built on the promise of huge profits from a small contribution. A participant in the system is offered to invest money and attract new users, from whose deposits he will, in turn, receive a certain percentage.
The peculiarity of financial pyramids: the first participants actually receive their interest for a certain period of time so that they develop trust in the organizers. In addition, this is an incentive to attract new users.
What are Bitcoins and how can you earn them?
Bitcoins are a cryptocurrency that exists only on the Internet. Its difference from other electronic money like Yandex.Money, WebMoney or QIWI is that it is not backed up by real funds, i.e. it is completely virtual. You will not be able to withdraw bitcoins to your card, but you can pay for purchases online.
One bitcoin (btc) is worth approximately $13,000, but its rate fluctuates constantly, like other currencies. One unit of currency can be divided into smaller ones, the so-called satoshi (named after the creator of this monetary unit, Satoshi Nakamoto). 1 satoshi is equal to 0.00000001 btc.
You can start mining or mining bitcoins at any time. To do this, just run a special script on your computer, which is publicly available. Where do bitcoins come from? This is a currency obtained as a result of mathematical calculations.
