There are so many ways to earn money online for free. If you want some extra pocket money to pay your bills or buy something special, there are many different ways to do it on the web.
I run an internet business where I help people set up their own online businesses. As a group, we do very well. We sell hundreds of different products every week. We have learned what could be known as the ‘secrets’ of internet marketing and we have all worked very hard.
By the way, hard work is a prerequisite to making money online, unless you choose to make passive income, but you’ll still have to work hard initially to set it up. I mention this because there still seem to be a lot of spammers and scammers who give the impression that you really don’t have to do much to be successful at making money online.
Running a business is just one of the ways to make money online. In this article I am going to share with you some of the ways anyone can earn money.
The Internet is primarily used as a tool to locate knowledge. If you have a specific field of knowledge then that is great news as there are many different ways you can use it to earn money online for free.
One of the easiest ways to earn money from your knowledge is to answer questions on paid websites. There are several sites created where people pay experts to answer their questions. The site owner will accept a payment from the asker and then pay you. We are all experts in one area or another, so we can all participate.
Your knowledge can also be shared by writing articles for other internet marketers. They will pay you between $10 and $20 for a 300 to 500 word article on the topic they suggest. You will need to be proficient in creating articles that are both search engine friendly and human friendly.
If you have already had some experience with search engine optimization or SEO, you can answer questions on the website which is a forum for experts on this topic.
Another way to get paid writing is by posting on forums. Some sites will pay quite a bit of money to do this type of service for them.
If you want to go the image route, you might get paid just for uploading files, photos, videos, and documents. If you are a photographer, you can find many sites to upload your own photos and people will pay you for the copyright of the photo.
If you have a Twitter account with a large following, there are marketers and advertisers looking for people just like you. They will pay you to tweet their messages to your followers.
These are all different ways to earn income online, but my preferred way is to help people learn how to make money online.
