The novelty the ‘Net introduced with in the ’90s is the possibility to make money in new ways that can fit the needs of even stay-at-home moms and people with severe disabilities.
Years ago you could make good money with PTC (Pay To Click), but it’s not as remunerative a way to earn a side income as it used to be these days (unless it’s Clixsense). However, there are several ways to make money online that involve putting your most important assets at stake:
Your skills and talents.
In this post, we list our Top 10 ways to make money online (without annoying hidden catches!) and websites that can help you get started.
Good luck! ;)
10 Ways To Make Money Online
1. Freelance Blogging
Companies and start-ups are always on the lookout for bloggers who can bring them new customers and work on branding with outstanding writing skills.
You can easily find blogging jobs for great pay at Problogger’s Job Board and Blogging Pro Jobs.
2. Sponsored Reviews
If you like reviewing products and services, you can signup for IZEA or Blogsvertise to write Google-friendly reviews and make some good money on the side writing reviews for advertisers.
3. Advertising
Let advertisers know you accept advertising and leave contact info for them to request a quote.
Remember to include a media kit with your contact page.
4. Affiliate Marketing
If you have an Amazon, NameCheap, BlueHost or Hello Society account, you can use your blog to generate money through affiliate marketing.
Affiliate marketing is simple– when you signup for a service, you will get a referral ID that will earn you a commission every time someone uses it to make a purchase on the site.
Blogging is the best out of the ways to make money online through affiliate marketing because you can add your experience to it and motivate your visitors to make a purchase after they made an informed decision.
5. Paid Surveys
AWSurveys, Global Test Market, My Points an iPoll are among the best known and trusted out there, but you can easily create a Google Alert for new paid survey websites as they come up.
Sometimes you can’t cashout survey points as cash, but you can redeem them as Amazon Gift Cards or shopping coupons. Still good!
6. Logo Design
If you are skilled at logo design, you can easily make money entering design contests at Digital Point or putting your logo design services up for grabs at Fiverr.
Once you acquired some clients and some experience, you can build a professional website with portfolio and turn this skill into your main source of income.
7. VA Services
Proofreading, editing, invoicing, secretary services… the sky is the limit here. Busy freelancers and solopreneurs are always on the lookout for good Virtual Assistants (VAs), so if you have the skills, by all means put them on the market.
8. Sell on Etsy
If you have art & craft skills, you can sell your creations on Etsy.com, a marketplace for indie artists and makers to buy and sell directly, without middlemen.
Whether it’s knitting patterns, plushies or digital designs, you can create your own online shop on Etsy and make some money on the side— or turn it into your main source of income.
9. Create e-books
You can write and sell e-books on virtually any topics and in any niches. Or you can sell fiction, if you create any.
Make sure your e-books are well researched and interesting and you can make hundreds of dollars selling them.
You can get paid in royalties if you sell via Amazon or Smashwords, or you can earn directly from the sale if you put the e-books up for sale on your website.
10. Get social on Tsū
Tsū is a new social network that allows you to make money with your social activities on the site— comments, posts, likes and so on.
The more you participate in the Tsu community — the more you contribute — the higher your earnings.
