What do you do with your computer? If you are like most people you use it to send emails to friends and family members, perhaps read the news, look up favorite recipes, or watch a video or two. While most use the computer for things “such as these”, others are using their computer to make some serious dollars. We would like to introduce to you five ways that people are making money online:
IDEA #1) Why Not Write For Blogs. Writing for established blogs is one of the easiest ways to make money online. You don’t even need to have an established website, and you can make between $5 and $100 for every article you write. The amount of money you will make depends upon things like popularity, Alexa Ranking, RSS Subscribers count, Page Rank, etc. Some of the blogs that you should check out are:
a) ReviewMe b) SponsoredReviews c) Blogsvertise d) Payperpost e) Smorty f) Linkworth
IDEA #2) Filling out Online Web Surveys. There are legitimate and profitable web sites that will pay you to fill out their various online surveys…but you have to do your homework. Be sure to check into their payment history to ensure that they are legit, and check out the various comments and reviews that other users give them. One potential candidate is: CashCrate.com. Be sure to see what they offer.
IDEA #3) You can always write original content for other web sites. Do you have a particular skill or hobby that others would love to learn about? Do others always say you are so informative about this or that? Is there a particular hobby that you spend all your time at? If the answer is “yes” to any of these questions, you should give this form of making money a try. Here are some web sites you should look at:
1) About.com 2) eHow.com 3) Helium.com 4) Bukisa.com 5) AssociatedContent.com
IDEA #4) Freelance Jobs. If you have skills or knowledge in: computer programming, writing technical info, drawing, designing web sites, etc. you will find a huge marketplace on the internet for your skills. People are constantly looking for these skills, and if making money in this way interests you, you should check out:
- Guru.com – GetaFreeLancer.com – Elance.com
IDEA #5) Via Online Affiliate Sales. If you have an established website, there are companies out there that will pay you for sending paying customers their way. Companies such as: Commission Junction, Amazon, ClickBank, and LinkShare will provide you with the names of these companies. Put one of their ads on your website, and whenever someone purchases an item via your ad, you will get some $. With Amazon you can make 5-15% for each product sold through the ad on your website. For ClickBank, the percentage is anywhere from 50-75%. The key to this method of making money online is that you need to have an establish web site…one that a lot of people look at.
