Probably the number one question I get every week in an email is "how do I make money on the Internet?What they should be saying is can I make money online or will I make money on the internet. Again I am going to burst your bubble and tell you right now, no you will probably never make any money on the Internet.

My Team-Schuman.web site contains information on making money online and making money at home. This would include such things as work at home, marketing on the Internet, social marketing, advertising and promotion, how to blog, get paid to take surveys, mlm, pay per click advertising, SEO, and more.

The reasons most of you will never make any money online is you will not learn the things I just listed. Has anyone ever to you that. Probably not, because they want you to buy their reports and ebooks full of secrets. There are no secrets.

If you really want to make money online you are going to have to learn a few things. Do you need to learn everything I listed above? NO! First you have to learn something.

If you would pick one way to market online then you could make money over and over again selling virtually any product. Did you catch that? Pick one way to promote something and then do it until you have mastered it.

For me that was writing articles because I understood that people were going online to research things. Once I figured out the questions I started providing the answers.

Can I Make Money Online?

Yes, but you probably will not! Not only will you not learn one way to market online, you will not put in the effort it is going to take. Here's an example of what I see. Most people come online looking for a job like typing or data entry. Even getting paid to do surveys on the Internet takes a lot of work to get it going.

What happens is you join a paid survey program and start joining the companies looking for workers. You see no money so you quit. Really what you did was spend a fews hours and then you quit and went on to something else. It does not matter what you do to make money you are going to have to work harder for awhile.

There is this a learning curve to and most of you will never understand that.

I am serious. If you really want to answer the question of whether you will ever make money on t internet you need to be honest with yourself. What do you know how to do right now? If I put you in a room with 100 people and I was only going to choose 3 people to work with for the next year, why should I choose you?

You are probably going to say things like I am a motivated person, or I really need to make money for ???, or I want to quit my job and stay home with my kids, etc., etc. Think again. You just listed reasons that millions of people go online everyday for. But this is not why I should hire you. This is why you want me to hire you.

I am looking for answers like I know how to create a capture page, I am an excellent network marketiner, I know how to post in forums, etc. Do you see the difference? These are skills that you need.

So when you ask yourself will I ever make any money on the Internet you can honestly say YES!
