These type of sites give the impression that online money making doesn’t happen but it is possible to make some extra cash, after all, those folk who are giving you those sales pitches are making money too!
- There are a few things you need to put into place before you begin to earn that extra cash, and the first thing you must be is disciplined about the whole thing. There is no use setting yourself a target of spending ten hours a week online making money only to put other things in front of your target.
- Set up a separate email address for work purposes only as you don’t want your regular email addy flooded with offers of work, and at the same time make sure you have a PayPal account to put any of your earning into as many online companies pay in this way.
- Be professional when you submit any online work, don’t work with the Caps lock on and use proper sentences and grammar, even with exceptions you still have to remain professional about it as you are building up your own online work status.
- Double check and then proof read again. Make sure anything you do send is complete with all the relevant information the company has asked for, and remember to give enough examples of your work but not so many that they would not know where to start, some background information is fine, but not your whole life story.
A relatively innovative way to make money online is via trading cryptocurrencies. The most well-known one is of course Bitcoin, but there’s a plethora of less popular alt coins. The ways to earn money from them include “mining” the coins and selling them (you’ll need a bitcoin wallet for this), speculating on price fluctuations using bitcoin exchanges, or finding a bitcoin forex broker and trading bitcoin CFDs or bitcoin/currency pairs (you won’t need a wallet).
A few of the Website that pay will pay you for various things, like taking surveys, shopping and testing products, and there are legitimate sites out there such as Swagbucks where you can undertake a good variety of thing to make yourself some extra cash like using their search engine or taking surveys. Ok you are not going to make millions but you will earn when you have time on your hands.
Another good way is to join one of the many high quality online casino sites where you can have the potential to win some extra cash, but use the sites bonus money or welcome package to play with. This works well for those who like to take a few risks and have some whilst doing it.
User Testing is another way for you to earn by testing websites, with a test taking between fifteen to twenty minutes. The test allows the website owner to watch someone who is new to their site navigate its pages, and is worth a great deal to the owner who can then tweak his or her site as required.
Fiverr is a really good place to make or even spend some cash if you need some of the services that other people offer. Everything on this site is five dollars and you either pay it or charge it.
One thing to remember when considering earning some extra money online is to tell the tax man! If you are earning extra on top of a regular wage you may have to pay tax, it is less likely that you will have to pay tax if you work part-time, but remember to check.
