Jobs for Teenagers

Teenagers have always had trouble finding ways to earn extra money. It used to be that delivering newspapers and babysitting were about the only options that teenagers had, now with the internet and both couples working there are many more opportunities available for teenagers.

Teenagers can work online and make some extra spending money. I have tried all these programs online and can verify that they do pay. All these places are free to join.

Writing:

Associated Content is one place that you can write and earn money. You don't have to be an excellent writer but you do need to write using proper grammar. The nice thing about Associated Content is that you get paid with paypal, and if they accept your articles upfront, you can make $3-$20 per article. While they don't pay for poetry upfront, you can still earn money with page views. For every 1000 page views you get for all your articles you earn $1.50. This is paid every month that you have enough page views.

Making Videos:

Can you record Video's? Again I would suggest Associated Content. They will pay upfront for good video's that you make. I submit video's on how to do things on the computer, but if you can do crafts or show how to do just about anything you can upload and make money. This is easy and quick way to earn money. The average that you get for video's is about $4 each. But sometimes it will only take you about 10-15 minutes to do a video. Before uploading the video to Associated Content, make sure it's under 15MB. This would be good if you have a video of how to beat a certain level in a game that is hard to do. Any tutorial may be accepted on Associated Content. It's just not limited to tutorials, you can take a video of something special in your neighborhood.

What I would suggest you do before signing up is check out some of the writings with the articles there, and then also check out the video's and see if you think this would be something that you could do.

While with YouTube you can submit just about any video with Associated Content they are a little more choosy about what they accept and pay for. Even if you don't get upfront payments for the videos or the articles, you can still submit if for page views.

With Associated Content they are always looking for articles and video's. And there is always something that you can write about. There is no Time limit on the Video's but for an article other than poetry, it's a 400 word minimum. Which can be done without a problem.

Payments from Associated Content are made 3 times a week. So if they have accepted an article or a video, they will transfer the money into your paypal account. They haven't missed a payment yet with me.

I have searched the requirements to open a paypal account, I can not find an age requirement, you may need to have a parent or guardian open the PayPal for you.

Here are the surveys. Most of them you only have to be 13.

Cashcrate will let them do offers as long as they are over the age of 13. This is an easy way to make extra money online. New bonus incentive- you can choose to make $1 each time someone under you does an offer for the 1st time. If you refer 10 people to the site and they sign up and do one offer, you get $1 each. This will add up quickly.

Gangster Greed is another place that will pay. The minimum age is 13.

Treasure Trooper has a minimum age of 13 to join.

Other Jobs:

Everyone knows that teenagers can baby-sit that's been going on for awhile now, while that does pay it's not very creative, and is not for everyone. Teenagers can still baby-sit, there are always babysitting jobs out there for teenagers.

Dog walking is one job that a teenager can do. They can print up posters promoting their business. Walking dogs daily is not only a good way to earn money, but the teenager does get the daily exercise that they need. They can also pet sit for people that are going on vacation, or another twist on this ideal is to let people's dogs out to potty while the owner's are still at work.

If an adult is around on the weekend the teenager can hold a yard sale to earn some extra money. They can collect things from your house or friends and have a big sale. This is one good and quick way to have them grab some extra cash quickly. There should always be an adult present during one of these sales.

Lawn work is another way that is beneficial for teenagers. Again they get the exercise, and get paid for working. Flyers and word of mouth helps promote the business. Most jobs come by word of mouth.

With many teenagers being so computer savvy teaching older people about the Internet, setting up home networks, and repairing computers can be profitable for teenagers. Teenagers can teach people about the programs, or help them with their email programs.

With teenagers being so computer savvy they can create websites for friends, start a blog with advertisements, and help people sell eBay items. They can upload photos online for people making them into a nice site for them. They can design websites for small businesses. This is a great way to make money, and have the teenager learn more at the same time.

Housecleaning for friends and family members is another way to earn cash. Everyone can clean, and with word of mouth your teenager can get a lot of work cleaning. This is a great way to earn ongoing money for things that teenagers need and want.

Tutoring for younger students is a great way for teenagers to show their knowledge, and teach others. This not only pays but will also increase confidence in the teenager.
