I’ve been in a couple of MLM and other business where everyone talks about residual income.
Yet I have never experienced residual income like what I get on the Internet.
I just received a check for $20.58 from NoteAble Holdings Inc, and for a few days I had no idea who they were, or why they were sending me money. Not that I mind, though…
I finally figured out that it’s for the commissions I earned selling sheet music (guitar, piano) on the Internet. It was one of the older affiliate programs I applied for, and I left a couple of links up on a website that I haven’t as much as touched or even monitored for the last 2 years.
$20.48 for two years shows how badly I did with this affiliate program. They pay about $0.40 per sale so I must have made like 51 sales to even get this. However, getting a check that you were not expecting, and having to figure out who sent it to you is fun 
Most people never get started.
They buy a lot of internet marketing ebooks after getting hypnotized by the huge commission checks they see on the sales page. They read the whole damn thing, but they never get that first domain name. They never write that first page. They never sign-up for that first affiliate program.
And if you don’t do all that, you’ll never enjoy residual income from the Internet.
But the same people will tel themselves, and every other prson they meet, that making money on the Internet is a scam.
Yet I’m sure $20.48 is more that the interest income most people earn from their savings.
My first website was a total mess, but it gave me a wonderful learning experience on what to do and what not to do. It made me decent income in the past, and today I still get some small checks when I least expect it to.
Residual income takes time.
You need to do it NOW to set the gears in motion.
Once you have your website up and getting at least 300 vistiors a month, and you’ve made at least one sale from an established affiliate program, you’re on your way to feeling the satisfaction of earning residual income on the Internet.
From my experience, the traffic will not stop, and the sales will not stop either.
So go get started!

Hi Gobala,
I agree with you that alot of people bought alot of things and never get started. They jump from 1 guru to another that promise to earn give buck. Personally I feel that there is no quick way out. Follow one system and succeed from it.

Any good affiliate program to introduce? I would like to put in my new website
I agree with you Gobala. Internet marketing is not get-rich-quick scheme. Nothing will come overnight.
The most important thing is start doing it. Learn, act and earn!
Wow, I still have a lot to learn and practice! Internet marketing is really marketing revolution.
Cheers,

Try to check out Clickbank for affiliate programs.
Although I’ve made a few sales through Clickbank, I cant say I’ve made much money due to the amount of money I put in to make those sales. And I still haven’t met one of Clickbank’s requirement to withdraw out my money. Need to generate more traffic at a much lower cost
Residual income is great – I would be earning a lot less if there wasn’t for residual income.
Getting surprise commissions like you’re talking about is always great

blogging for money using internet marketing is about ethical blogging itself. if lie for money like blogger jeff ooi is unethical. challenging the law is not a bad thing but challenging the law by defame people, political parties and organizations is unethical especially telling lie for money. i like affiliate marketing not the way blogger lie to get traffic and for money. u understand what i mean if you know who is the biggest lier blogger in the country call malaysia.
