Many sites showcase people making as much as $300 a day working online from home on their computer.

For Patricia Feeney it sure is. Patricia, a mother from is thriving, in the middle of an economic recession working in the comfort of her own home.

From her website: "I get paid about $25 for every link I post on Google and I get paid every week... I make around $5,500 a month right now"

Patricia's story is a very familiar one in these tough times. She quit her job as a production assistant at NBC to stay at home with her kids. Sadly a few days later her husband Kevin was laid off from his job as part of cutbacks due to the bad economy. Patricia and Kevin were in financial trouble.

"We knew we had to do something, so we put our heads together and started trying online job opportunities." Patricia and her husband Kevin wound up getting caught up in a few quick rich business opportunities that were nothing more than pyramid schemes before finding something that really worked.

"I realized the best thing to do is instead of hoping that a company that you are looking at is going to last, why not go with a big, reputable company. After looking at several different companies, I picked the safest bet... Google."

Online giant Google is a publicly traded company and is worth an estimated $100 Billion (with a b). The company has pioneered online search and has changed the way we use the internet.

In a matter of weeks Patricia and Kevin had a steady stream of income coming in via checks that were delivered to their home. They happened upon a system called "SMC" that taught them how to make money posting links online.

"SMC is a course that can teach anyone, regardless of computer skill level to start making money online."

Patricia was kind enough to share a picture of the check she gets each month:

For those of you that have seen the 'scammy' sites on the Internet that promise you can make millions of dollars online, Patricia warns that this is not the promise being made here and that most of those sites are false representations of earnings you can make.

"We never tell anyone they will make millions of dollars, in fact I think this is the ONLY online system that says you probably WON'T make millions, but you can generate a legitimate income from home like I do that replaced my full time job."

Getting started is simple. Following these simple steps below is all you need to do to get started.

While researching the online-job phenomenon for this article I found countless stories of every day people making between $250 - $1000 a day from their homes. They explain that they're earning part-time and full-time incomes posting content on websites using hugely popular text advertising applications like Google Adwords, Yahoo Search Marketing and MSN Adcenter.

Below is an excerpt from one site.

The idea of working from home sounds good to most of us who have to deal with varying lengths of unpleasant commutes to and from work, and in this digital age the number of people telecommuting continues to rise- saving time and money spent on fuel and allowing more time to be spent with family.

If you're struggling in the current economic debacle and the idea of working from home interests you, SMC may be a viable option for you to try. The site states that it's completely free to try besides the low shipping charge and satisfaction is 100% guaranteed.
