How much do you make?

[JL8]

What do you do in this industry and how much do you bring home? Where are you finding success?

It's a pretty personal question, however it's an interesting one. Feel free to generalize/ball-park it if need be.

Where are you finding success?

Quality. It's the universal language.
Also, value. "Price is what you pay, value is what you get."

If you focus on quality and value, you will almost certainly win. How much success you have is largely determined by your eye for quality and your comprehension of value.

Hi I do freelance work such as writing, data entry or as virtual assistant. I do earn what I used to earn when I am still employed in a regular job. But sometimes much more so I'm more happy to work from home and have more time for my family.

I think trying to make a living off buying and selling domains is a long hard road; but buying great niche names, and then developing them can make you rich. But then again, it all matters on what you consider rich. If you think making 100K a year working from home and owning a million dollars in domains is rich, then yes it's possible; but you gotta put in a lot of work, or get super lucky, or maybe a little of both.

But most people around here make more money with domains than playing the lottery, and those who develop great names can earn a comfortable living. Personally, I think making over 100K a year can provide a pretty comfortable living. I won't say what I make, but I'm happy, and I work every day, constantly building my way towards a beautiful life. One day I hope to just push a few buttons and play my guitar all day.

As far as for you, or anyone else here for that matter, one day, an idea will hit you, when the idea comes, just write it all out on paper, figure out how to connect all the steps from finding a prospect to getting paid, and you might find yourself being the next BIG thing online.

Good luck,
