Internet: The dream job

As a teenager I spend most of my days online watching movies, reading, being active on social media. So it’s no wonder I stumbled across people who owe their success to community online. 

Youtubers, bloggers and writers who get published because of the audience they captured on the net, seem to have a great job. 

What’s the trick? What does it take to be one of those people?

Something that you’ll need is self-discipline. You are, after all, working by yourself so the amount of time and effort you put into it will make great difference in advance. Make sure you organise your time well, plan your posts in advance and don’t wait until last minute to come up with an idea.

People that make money online are great entertainers so don’t be afraid to be original. Creativity is important if you want people to keep coming back. No one wants to see the same thing twice. 

You need to realise internet offers a bunch of opportunities, but remember there are many people out there that are trying just as hard as you. You have to be great at self-promoting. Throw your story out there, come up with something people will remember you by, make your content so intense people will talk about it and most of all don’t be afraid to share your posts.

Even though internet looks like a place where you can make money within a small amount of time don’t be fooled. You will need to build up your platform, which can take from few months to few years, so don’t quit school / job just yet. Good luck!
