The internet is full of websites that claim to help you make money online or earn residual income. The problem is, 95% of these websites are simply scams or MLM schemes that want to take your money. I have spent the last two years scouring the web in search of legitimate ways to make money online. Only a select few websites actually back up their claims and really do provide results and I have listed these websites on my blog – Residuals and Royalties.
There are three ways that I prove to my readers that I am actually earning a profit from these websites and I will list each one for you. These three forms of “proof” help my readers have a little faith that if they put some effort into these websites, they WILL get paid. The three ways that I prove my earnings are: screen shots, check proof videos and auto-calculating banners.
Proof of Earnings Screen Shots: Every time I get a payout from a website, I usually like to take a screen shot of my earnings to post on my blog for the world to see. The only downside to screenshots is the fact that they can easily be photoshopped or changed, which causes some people to be skeptical of my earnings. I can tell you that I don't have the time or interest in trying to photoshop my screenshots.
Check Proof Videos: To further prove my earnings to others, I like to take videos of the checks that I receive in the mail from various sources. Not all of the websites that I work with provide actual paper checks, but when they do – I always record a video of the check. If you do the same, be sure and cover the personal information like you address, the check number and anything else you don’t want visible to the public. There are two primary checks that I have been video taping every month – my CashCrate check and my Google Adsense check.
Auto-Calculating Banners: I have a CashCrate banner atop my Residuals and Royalties blog that automatically updates when my earnings change. This banner shows the exact number of referrals I have made and how much money I have earned for the month as well as my total earnings overall. This banner is an excellent way to prove my earnings, since I have no way of altering the figures.
If you have another way that you use to prove the legitimacy of your online earnings, please let us know by commenting below.

Same as you, I encountered many blogs that teaches how to make money online that they don't even experienced to make money online.
Even me also, I do this in my early days of my blogging career. But what I did is that, I don't really teach them how to make money online but I share my ideas how it can be done.
Now, I already make money online through affiliate marketing, google adsense, PTC and others.
I am glad that I realized in the long run of my blogging career.
Now, I can proved to you that I already made money online, because I already bought a domain name for my blog.
Thank you for this post and happy blogging.
Sincerely,

Thanks for your sharing good information here. It is so great. I will come back and see how it goes on.
its a really great post, i love this blog
One thing we can do is "NOT" to post it. For me, I don't need to prove anything. But if I ever will do that and if people will not believe it, it's their problem not mine. For us bloggers, we already know if a site is making money or a scam.
lol people should not have to prove anything, unless they are claiming they make such and such money. People should use their own common sense and judgement online. But good points ...
Well written article with some useful ideas - there are lots of different ways of making money out there. I agree that people should use their own common sense and judgement online. Once again... research is the key.
Thanks for sharing good piece of information and its true that many such websites don't know even how to make money online and they are teaching others. I read your blog many times and found it really interesting and informative. Good work!
