Can a schoolboy show you how to make money on the internet?

15 year old Donny Ouyang is like most other kids. He goes to school, he plays sports. The difference is he also makes thousands of dollars every month courtesy of the internet. Now he wants to tell others how he does it. Time to pay attention at the back of the class.


Donny Ouyang lives in British Columbia, Canada, on the other side of the Big Pond, and says he's an average 15 (going on 16) year old high school student.

What's different about Donny though is that when he's not at school or playing basketball or doing all the other things kids do these days, he is making thousands of dollars a month via the internet.

Not bad going for a kid who doesn't consider himself a techie and who doesn't spend every waking hour chained to his PC (a top of the range customised Dell XPS 700 with a 22" screen bought with money made online as was his Sony Vaio Duo Centrino laptop).

"Honestly, I didn't think much about my 'business' at all, which is probably
why most of my friends don't know about it - yet," says Donny when Internet Entrepreneurs asked him about balancing school and his money-making activities. "After school and extra-curricular activities, I spend around 2-4 hours each day working on my projects."

Donny didn't start out in life with ambitions to be an internet entrepreneur. Driving a taxi and then becoming a science engineer were top of his early career ambitions, but then a curious mind coupled with a desire to succeed in the virtual world of Neopets saw a 12 year old Donny head for his father's bookshelves.

"My dad, who had a degree in computer science, had a whole stack of books
on HTML, CSS, Java, etc. I was curious one day and found it pretty cool
after flipping through a couple pages of basic HTML. That's how it all
started."

Fast forward to today and Donny has built a virtual empire under his Kinsarso Tech Ltd brand which includes sites like ChristianAvenue.org, and DigitalThrone.com.

"One of my current websites is BattleForums.com. It is one of the largest gaming communities out there and has over 60,000 members who are responsible for over one million forum posts. Another project that I am currently working on is LiveTV.ws. It is a Internet TV resource website where users may watch TV channels from around the world at a click of a button. It currently has
around 22,000 members."



So how exactly does a kid with only a few hours to spare every day manage to build successful websites?

"I outsource," comes the reply. "One thing that I believe 100% in is the fact that 'the less you do, the more you get'. Basically, I only do what I am good at doing
(marketing, packaging, managing, etc), and I leave everything else for the
professionals. I outsource for web designers, programmers, and writers to
develop my new websites."

Donny has big ambitions for his internet future and is currently working on a social networking website that is still in development and understandably under wraps.

"I'd like to keep it private to an extent at this point in time - I'm hoping to come out with a bang with this one! However, I can say right now that it is something that will revolutionise the education industry, providing new technologies to ease the process of learning any subject matter."

The fact that Donny wants to "revolutionise the education industry" via the internet proves two things - irrespective of whether he succeeds or not.

First, the internet doesn't care if you are 15 or 50 - if you want to change the world, go for it. And secondly, adults who have long forgotten dreams and ambitions have a lot to learn from kids who believe anything is possible.

"If your business is not on the Internet, then your business will be out
of business," says Donny, quoting Bill Gates. "The Internet is growing at such a huge rate, it is impossible to ignore the potential. Never before have we been able to use such mediums to communicate with our visitors, customers, clients, and prospects. With the Internet, anyone of any age, gender, nationality, race, or financial situation can profit huge. The Internet equals the future."

It would appear from the countless "get rich quick" e-books currently floating around cyberspace, you can't really call yourself an internet entrepreneur until you've written one. And it's a path that Donny has gone down too with his DigitalThrone book. But it is an e-book with a difference.

"I wrote the DigitalThrone because I want people to know the truth behind
earning money through the Internet. I'm sick and tired of watching people
going around, selling and buying "secret products" that promise riches the
very next day. I'm here to tell everyone what works, what doesn't, and
why.

"I clearly state on my website that no, the DigitalThrone is NOT a how-to
guide to success that gives you the exact steps to take and the exact
results to expect. That's not what the DigitalThrone is all about. What it
DOES talk about is the story behind every project that I took on, what I
did, their individual results, and why it was successful.

"Readers can expect a behind-the-scenes look at exactly how and why my businesses are making thousands of dollars online, and how they can duplicate them for the same results."

And there's another interesting twist when it comes to the marketing of the DigitalThrone. Instead of the usual stack 'em high philosophy, it's for sale by invitation only. Something that could prove very successful.

"I'm basically trying something new, while limiting the amount of copies
being sold at the same time. So far so good!"

And if you want to follow in Donny's footsteps, he's got this final piece of advice for you.

"Sell Something. From pens to websites. The easiest and quickest way to
profit online is to sell something."
