In some countries, some people working online at home get no orders or only low end work since all their leads, orders are diverted. Even if they spend a lot of time and money marketing they do not get any orders at all or very low paying work. Has anyone else faced this problem?

I haven't faced any such problems because I have a job and earn online in my free time only
It appears that only those who do not have a job which is a primary source of income, are facing the problem of not getting any kind of orders online, however, much they try.

This is because you are full time online worker, part time online worker faces such a problem.
But the post says even if you spend all your time working, which means even full time online workers face the same issue. I don't think the situation really excludes any online worker, weather full time or part time.

I am earning money by teaching online, either video or text-based. I must say that I am earning more than people who work offline in my city.

Working at home could give you a huge amount of money but it depends on the type of job that you're doing which is the determinant.

That depends on the type of business your run online. If you have an online store selling clothes, accessories or providing programming work online, with proper marketing, you may also get quality orders.

It depends on the type of work and the individual experience and qualifications. Some people working online from home may get no orders while others may get high end work. It is important to have a good portfolio and to market yourself effectively in order to get more work.

Well it depends though, there are times they might be opportunied to come across a high paying gig, and there are times they may only come across small paying gigs.

When you don't promote your business products very well online it is going to be very difficult for you to have more orders because it is when people see what you are selling that they are going to buy from you.
