Hi there, I’m Mesheal, a university graduate who chose to make money online rather than seek a regular job after school.
This turned out to be a great decision!
Just over a year ago, I had a bank account that I barely used because, well, little was in there.
Shortly after my graduation, I had to go on a long interstate journey. To keep myself occupied along the way, I pulled out my phone, started surfing the net, and then I stumbled across an article about online income.
This wasn’t exactly new to me, I knew about online income but I wasn’t sure I could make money from the internet. However, the article I read had some great tips so I bookmarked it.
On arriving in my home state, I did more research and started my online career from zero (had little cash, had no online presence.)
Less than a month in, I started earning!
About two months in, my earnings increased considerably. And now I work online, it’s my office, and a truly profitable one at that.
Along the line, I have come to learn what works and what sucks. If you want to start your own profitable online career, I’d be more than happy to guide you as you go along.
A Few Thing To Keep In Mind…
1. Making money online is NOT easy: If you imagined working online means doing nothing and receiving big, permit me to correct that impression. Creating online income streams is hard work. If anyone tells you otherwise, they may be trying to use false promises to get you to part with your hard earned money.
2. Making money online is VERY possible: If you are willing to put in the work, you may be amazed how things turn out, I sure was. At the beginning of my online career, I was fond of looking at what people had accomplished and thinking to myself: “Will I ever really get where they are.” Well I have, and in retrospect, it wasn’t as challenging as I thought.
But it is even easier when you have a mentor, and I’m willing to be that. In fact, that’s the main purpose of this blog. Along the line, I have learnt much about online income through my personal experience, and would be learning a lot more as I go along.
I would be sharing all this information though this blog and my Facebook page so you can start earning in the shortest time.
Types Of Online Income
There are many ways people make money online, but this blog focuses on two basic sources: Blogging and Freelancing.
To make money through the first means, you need to create a blog around a topic that interests you, drive traffic to this blog, and then make your traffic a source of money. I’d be revealing the guides and tips that will help you do this.
Freelancing is different. There are certain online job marketplaces (like Upwork) where people and companies from all around the world post jobs. You can register a freelancer account, set up your profile, and start applying for, and winning profitable job contracts. As your profile improves, you’d also quite often be invited to apply for jobs.
Many of these jobs are long term, lasting several years, and some are permanent positions. Yet you don’t have to leave the comfort of your home. People have built careers around them and have made amounts that many would think impossible.
But like blogging, freelancing is no walk in the park. Many people try and quit, but others succeed and go on to build profitable careers around it. If you want to follow in the line of those who succeed, stick around and I’d share the things I’ve learnt so far, and others I’d learn as I go along.
So Which Should You Choose?
Well it depends.
If you need to start earning really soon so you’d have money to spend and pay bills, then choose freelancing.
If on the other hand you are in no rush and have another source of cash, but simply want to build an online business, then blogging is the way to go.
With freelancing, you can start earning in a short time, but blogs take more time to reach profitability.
However, even if you choose freelancing, I recommend that you eventually create a blog as it is a more passive source of income. And it is fun!
