ONLINE MONEY

How To Make Money Online

Everyone and their brother wants to know the secret of how to make a fortune on the internet, to be honest I really don't know any secrets and it will be a long time before I can retire if I rely on the internet as my only source of income, but if you are looking for ways to boost your income, have a little extra spending money and be able to afford more of life's little luxuries then there are many ways that you can make money online legally and securely.

Buy and Sell

Online auction sites are a great source of income. ebay for instance can prove to be a money magnet, buy cheap and sell for profit, there are scores of e-books out there promising untold wealth from ebay, but here are a few tips that you don't have to pay for.

The key to selling on ebay is as I said earlier is to buy cheap and sell for profit, this can prove a little difficult but keeping a close eye on the market place and knowing current trends can help put some needed income into your pocket, ebay's online magazine Pulse is a great source of the current trends, and should help you on the road to success.

You can buy bulk items from ebay at great prices and sell individually for more profit, type wholesale into the ebay search bar for bulk items.

My Top Ebay Tip

when searching ebay to buy cheaper, try spelling the name of the items you are looking for wrong, these often sell for less money because they attract fewer bidders.

There are many other auction sites on the internet just type in online auctions in your search bar to find them.

Amazon

On Amazon you can sell books, CD's, DVD's, Software, Video games and much more, you are free to sell anything that Amazon sells and even to undercut their prices by whatever amount you like, unlike ebay though you are not charged to list an item but Amazon do take a cut of your revenue.

Virtual Currency

Players of online games such as World of Warcraft, EverQuest and Eve, have been using real money to buy and sell virtual gold for some time now.

Sparter.com is a new ebay-style site which has been set up to simplify the process, the price of 1000 pieces of game gold is around $21.00.

Join a Scheme

Complete Surveys

Online Surveys can be a constant source of income, alot of companies want to know about you, your likes and dislikes and they will pay cash for that information. you will need to be prepared to divulge some very personal details on some of the surveys and it can take alot of work before you see a penny.

Paid to Read Emails

There are many schemes out there which pay you to read advertising emails. If you don't mind adverts in your inbox, it can be an easy way to make money hitsforpay is one of the most popular examples.

Beware though there are alot of scammers though, check out any potential sheme you want to join at gptboycott.com and beenpaid .com before you start.

Win Money

Enter free competitions, there are plenty to chose from online chooseaprize.com is a good place to start, to avoid alot of spam email from competition organisers , sign up for a free gmail account, for use with your competition sites only.

Earn Money

Hubpages is a great place to begin earning, write reviews, poetry, short stories, infact, write about anything and you will soon start earning money, from Ebay, Amazon and Google.

Review products there are sites such as dooyoo or ciao, who pay you to write reviews of products if you have just purchased an ipod write up what you think about it and the money will follow.

Sell your Photos if you are good at photography you can sell your snapshots to an online stock photographer, you will get paid every time someone buys or downloads one of your pictures. istockphoto.com or submit.shutterstock.com are reputable companies to start with.

Make Money From Videos

More and more Video websites are paying for people to add their content to their sites, by adding advertising to the clips and sharing the revenue. onerevver.com is one of the most popular.

Blogging

A successful blog can generate some extra income add some affiliates such as google, amazon ebay, yahoo and the money will roll in, keep adding a new post every day for a better chance of success.

Website

If you have your own website, you can generate some extra income from advertising there are many affiliate sites to choose from.

Self publish, authors, poets, musicians, and photographers can self publish their work, lulu.com simplifies the process and there is no set up cost or minimum order, you choose how the finished article looks and you can set your own price.

Donations

If your website or blog is popular you can add a donation button and ask people for small sums to help keep the site going.

Great Hub, Jimmy. I have tried online surveys and did ok but have pretty much abandoned them since discovering that I can make more money on HubPages with the same amount of time. I also figure I only paid 1/3 to 1/2 the cost of books for my daughter while in college - and that is compared to what she would have paid if she had brought them used from the school book store. I also saved some more when I re-sold them on line at the end of the year. I used eBay itself, eBay's Half.com and Amazon primarily. With Half.com you can list books for as long as you want and only pay a commission to Half.com when a book actually sells. I am going to look into your tips for eBay and reconsider selling on there again - I used to sell there but as it grew the prices went down and didn't seem as worthwhile. But, I may try again using your suggestions.

Thanks again for a great Hub. Chuck

Hi Jimmy great ideas, however I cannot see how you can make money with blogging or even less on hubpages, I have not made any money whatsoever with googl, or amazone, or any of the other affiliated programs, and I agree with Chuck the survey's are hopeless, and I would'nt want to get involved with e-buy So what is there left? did you ever make any money with hubpages? if so let me know, how that works. Thank you Harry
