We know that buy-and-sell activities are a big hit in eBay and
Amazon. This is quite straightforward. But, there are tons of other means to amass cash online.
Whether you are a home-based mother, part-timing student or someone looking for extra income, you may want to consider these ways to earn money online.
Write your own bestselling eBook
Back in the day, for your book to see the light, you need to beg at least a dozen of publishers and tap connections. The Internet has changed this route and paved the way for a massive self-publishing world.
Barnes & Noble, Amazon and Kobo are some of the websites where you can self-publish your books and make at least 70-75% commission for every sale. Sales are particularly high for mystery and thriller books.
Sell stock photography
High quality stock photos sell like hotcakes. The unprecedented growth of media and commercial outlets has increased the demand for images that they can utilize. If you are a professional photographer or a hobbyist that love to take snaps of just anything around you, you may want to contemplate on the possibilities of earning cash through selling stock photos online.
Lease your skills
Offer professional services via
oDesk or
Elance. There are several ways to sell your skills online. If you are detail-oriented and have knack for admin, you can be a virtual assistant. Every businessman would love the idea of having a full-time aide to take care of the small things.
There is a huge demand for home-based writers, graphic artists, recruiters, web developers and transcriptionists.
Set up a blog
Identify a specific niche where you know you can excel and set-up a blog. Publish useful contents and attract readership.
Once you have gained solid following, you can now leverage your readers into hard cash. Ad networks pay good money to place ads in websites that are deemed to magnetize good amount of traffic regularly. You receive monetary incentives and payments whenever a reader clicks on the ad.
Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing is a moneymaking venture that rewards one or more affiliate for every completed sale. This is not like selling their products to customers directly. What you do is you promote products and you earn whenever the visitor you directed from your site makes a purchase on the merchant’s website.
The time is here for online gambling.
Gamification has paved the way even for casino-type of gambling. If you enjoy Zynga’s Texas Hold ‘Em with zero cash rewards, why not go for the real money poker games. Online casinos have plagued the web today offering massive promotions that you don’t usually get in physical casinos in Las Vegas, Macau or Monte Carlo.
The online realm presents a world of endless opportunities to make money. Billions of people around the world access Internet everyday. If you could tap a minute percentage of it, you can still make millions.
