Hello friend, this is Tamal and let me introduce you to my blog. This is BlogKori -it means I am blogging. I write this regular internet marketing blog dedicated to help newbie people learn how to make money. Make Money Online is not a scam and you can too earn money online, working from home. I will teach you how I made money and how you can too!
Tamal’s back story
Let me tell a little bit about myself. My name is Tamal Anwar, I live in Dhaka, Bangladesh. I am a 24 year old dude who is working online since 2007. In 2004, I learned about the internet marketing and websites that make money. One of my close friends taught me how to create an HTML website on MS Front page software. He asked me if I can help him design a website. I created a website with my close to zero skills. The website was not what we call a real life website, but it was better than having nothing. Right on the time my friend quit and said it is no longer needed :(
I was heartbroken!
On late 2007 I had a thought of setting up an e-commerce website, an auction site. I got another friend to be partner in my new venture but it didn’t work out either. I didn’t know anything about internet marketing and website promotion.
Since then I had this passion to have my own money making website.
On the beginning of 2008 I started a new blog website. I put adsense on the blog to make money but adsense didn’t make any sense for me because it took almost 6 months even to reach 10 dollars in my account. But what was very profitable for me was paid reviews. I got $3.5 on my first paid review from LinkWorth. I got money but it takes minimum 25 dollars for a payout. I found some more paid review sites such as PayPerPost, Smorty, ReviewMe and many more and I was making more money than adsense clicks.
After six months of starting my blog I got my first payment of $20 through paypal. After that I kept rolling and was making more money each and every month.
Soon enough I was itching to teach people what I know and how I make money through my blog. I started a side project called BlogKori. One of my online friend insisted to start it on a domain, so he bought a domain BlogKori.Com for me. So the goal of this new blog was to write 10-20 posts on blogging, making money online and internet marketing but soon I saw that more and more people are starting to read and they want more.
Within the next year I quit my first blog and made BlogKori into my main business. That time I was making good money through paid reviews, selling links and advertisements. I was making roughly 100 dollars a month that time.
Seriously! I was making around 100 bucks a month and that felt so much money for me.
On mid 2009 I found a site called odesk. And I saw that people make a lot of money from there. Some people are earning $10 an hour with their services. I got interested and joined because $10 an hour is killer money for me. My goal was to make minimum $300 a month.
I joined odesk as a graphics designer but getting a job was very painful. I would apply for jobs everyday but got rejected. I had no experience, odesk hours nor even a feedback. Every job required experienced workers. The going was very tough for me. I struggled hard for 1 month with no hope, as I was thinking to quit,
I heard something from inside,
It said no Tamal don’t quit! I applied to a job that required a graphic designer.
I got the job!
That paid only $1 an hour and I worked 7 hours for 7 dollars. The feeling was amazing!! I wanted to work more; the next job I got was for $6 an hour. Instead I got 2 jobs with $6 an hour. Its more than the wage of a minimum wage worker in the United States.
Soon enough I started to take on tasks for $8 an hour and in the next year my hourly wage was $12. Wow that is higher than a McDonalds waiter and 2 dollars more than my expectations.
That time I was making like $200-$300 a month. Soon enough I was fed up with odesk because I wanted to expand and take on bigger projects. I stopped my profile and started offering website setup services on my blog. I started to see leads and I was taking on 100 dollar projects. It was great because now I can take my own work and no middleman to take a cut.
Fast forward another year I built a website dedicated to website setup and design services. It was great actually and I was taking on projects that were ranging $300, $500 and even $750. At one time I got so many proposals of work that I was getting overwhelmed. Every month I had to turn down many projects.
Now in the current time my hourly wage at odesk is $25 and I am building passive income through websites. In the last 2 years (2010-2011) I was busy with building my other businesses and I couldn’t spend much time for BlogKori. But amazingly my site was still receiving traffic and was sending me automated income every month. Every now and then I receive an affiliate payment from my site, which feels wonderful. It makes me think why not build a passive income system so that I can make money online while I sleep?
In 2012 I was fortunate to get along with some of the top internet marketers of the world and learning passive income strategies from them hand to hand. I will share those ideas as soon as I have something to show.

So is it easy to Make Money Online?
Yes and No.
Easy if you know how it is made; hard if you have no clue of what you are doing. Let me tell you a story:
In the childhood I liked Monopoly. I liked it so much but I couldn’t win with anyone. Last year I downloaded the game on my phone and played against the CPU, I lost again! This time I searched the internet to learn on how to win a momopoly game. I learned only a few basic strategies to win the game. I played against the CPU and I won.
I played again against 2 competitors,
I won again!
I played against 3 and this time it was hard but I won again!
So the lesson learned here. Anything and everything has a few strategies, online money making has a strategy too. You have to learn the strategy and apply them and you will succeed in online money making.
There are billions of billions of dollars in the world; the core principal of earning money is to find a demand and then fulfilling it. It could be information that people need or could be a service or even a product. You make this happen by following a proven system and then building the similar system that you will own.
