Do you ever complain that you are too old and cannot make money from Internet?

Do you think that Internet Business is only for those who is young?  

Do you believe that it is hard for a senior to make a high income after retiring?

Today, I just came across an inspired article from USAToday.com about how retired people and seniors make a good living from Internet through Google Adsense.

In this article, USAToday introduces several “Gray Googlers” and each of them make more than $10,000 of annual income from their sites or blogs through Adsense. I can tell you that their income is above average!

After reading the story, I feel that Internet Business is a good way for retiree to start as their part time business and make side income. Besides that Internet business also gives a hope to retiree.

If you think that you are too old to start or everything is just hard for a senior to accomplish, then you must read this article and break this believe.

If you never read the tips and information that I brought to you in last few series, you can click on the link above and read it.

Before this I also want to start a drop shipping business, however when I came across blogging, I changed my mind and start making money from blogging. So today I would like to show you the reasons why I choose blogging by comparing this 2 money making opportunities together.

2 Ways to make money online : Drop shipping and Blogging

For me, both of them are good ways to start making money online. Each of them has some proven successful stories that how people make a living or even become rich through them. There is no doubt that you can make money from either one of them if you work hard enough and do the right thing.

In last 2 years, I was searching what kind of opportunities that available in the internet which can help me to make money online. I came across drop shipping business. After doing some research and read some successful stories, I found that this is a good business to start. So I decided to join Ebay and wish one day I can start making money from it using the drop shipping business model.

After a few weeks, I was brought to problogger.net. Yes, this is a blog from Darren Rowse, a problogger that make a living from internet through blogging. At that time I really impressed with his story about how he bought a house using the money from blogging. He made this money through 6 months of serious and full time blogging. I really impressed and I start doing some research on blogging. So I compare 2 kind of business carefully and finally made my decision.

Drop Shipping VS Blogging

Today, in this article, let me compare 2 of them for you:

Now you know what are the differences between drop shipping business and blogging.

I choose blogging because:

1. I write and touch the topics that I like. At that time I can’t find any products that I’m really expert in for my drop shipping business. I don’t like shopping and maybe because of this I can’t find any passionate products for drop shipping. However, blogging is different, I just start a blog around the topic that I like to share and I can keep doing what I like to do and make money. The life will be easier….
   
2. Multiple ways of income. In drop shipping, I found that the only way to make money is selling products. However, in blogging, you can leverage on your blog and make money from multiple of income sources. This means that I have multiple choices to plan my money making strategy.
   
3. Blogging is easier. For me, blogging is easier. Although both of them need some technical knowhow and information to succeed, but in my mind, I feel that blogging is much easier. I’m running a computer service business in day time and I know that in business, if you want to sell something to the market, you must understand it very well. Then only you can market your products out and make money. However, since I don’t really like shopping, this is hard for me to identify a market for drop shipping. So I choose blogging rather than drop shipping.
