Dear Linda,

I am fascinated to hear the results of your 'making money on the internet' Poll.

When do you hope to let us see the results?

Regards,

Norm

Hey Norm!

Once you have voted, the results show live on the page. It's an ongoing poll and will continue to update as long as people continue to fill in their votes.

So far, here's how it looks;

22.7% Haven't earned a penny yet
27.3% earn $1 - $50 per month online
13.6% earn $51 - $100 per month online 
 4.5% earn $101 - $250 per month online
 9.1% earn $251 - $500 per month online
No one earns $501 - $1,000 per month online
18.2% earn $1,001 - $5,000 per month online
 4.5% earn over $5,000 per month

See the ones in red? They add up to over 77%... so I'd have to say that over 77% of people that filled in the poll are not making a living wage online.

I don't anticipate it will change much... except if more Adlanders filled it out honestly, I suspect the 0-$50 would go up way, way higher. Kind of makes one wonder why they persist in what they are doing. I highly suspect I know who the 18.5% are that are making over $1,000 - and they're not chasing "bizopps" but are running businesses.

Will be interesting, indeed to watch those numbers unfold over time.

You are right, Linda.

I would be interesting to watch.

I am one of those who are making $400 - $500 a month online

Maybe also for education sake to include in maintenance cost + capital

Anyone else want to share?

Hi...

Sure.... lol. I am sure most have figured out that 4.5% of 22 people making over 5K means one person.. and I'm sure most have already guessed who it is.

Initial capital: 0
Monthly costs: $19.99
Profit: $5,000+ monthly

Incidentally, for those that know my site - that figure is not from design work. I do very little design these days, and only for those that come with a recommendation from someone I know.
