“How to earn money online from Internet”
listed below, though most of them wouldn’t require any out of the world specialization, but you might need to have a good level of knowledge before you could actually imply them. So here we begin:
Blogging
If you’re a person who want to share your gift of knowledge to the world, blogs offer the easiest yet the most powerful way of keeping your views, ideas or simply sharing whatever you feel like to the world. You don’t need to be a tech-geek if you want to start up a blog. You simply must have good command over the language you wish to use (readers hate martian use of earthy language 😉 😛 ) and things should be well explained and expressed with proper grammar and try to keep it free from typos 😀 or else something similar might happen (miscommunication):
Once there was a guy out on his business trip to Bangkok 😛 he was missing his wife very much, so he thought texting her… he wrote…
“hey dear, I was badly missing you and that warmth of your arms around me. I was feeling so lonely here in Bangkok. So I thought I’d take a little off from the work and enjoy few moments with my hottie 😉 :* I wish you were her”
That was the last when he heard from his wife n the only thing that he got when back home was a divorce notice :O 😛 🙁
Lol… do you know what the scene was ? The guy was actually writing…
“hey dear, I was badly missing you and that warmth of your arms around me. I was feeling so lonely here in Bangkok. So I thought I’d take a little off from the work and enjoy few moments with my hottie 😉 :* I wish you were here” 😛
see… this is exactly what I meant. Do mean the same what you’re writing in your blog and what’s written there should mean the same too. Hope you got that 😉 😀
