5 Legit Ways to Make Money Online From Home

Escaping the rat race is a good reason to set up a home business and enjoy working on your timetable, not your bosses. Besides affiliate marketing, there are many other ways to earn money online. You don't need a university degree either. These are money making methods that anyone can do and on your own timetable.

Offer Web Services

Online businesses are always in need of web services to get things done. With service websites like Fiverr.com, you can offer many digital web services and set the price for the services you complete. The services some Fiverr merchants offer include web design, graphic design, logo design, social media marketing, digital marketing, lead generation and many more. Just go to Fiverr.com and check out what's on offer and then decide what web service you will offer and create the relevant account. You may decide that you require some of the services of Fiverr yourself.

Another option is to become a reseller or affiliate of a web hosting or domain name registration service to share in the profits of these two services. As there are many people already doing this you will need to make your service unique in some way. If your website looks professional enough and people trust you, you may find people are willing to sign up for your service.

Complete Online Surveys

While you won't get rich from completing online surveys you will earn a few extra dollars to buy some of the extra things you want. Online surveys mostly pay in points which can disguise the fact that for some surveys that pay you 6,000 points you may only be paid 60 cents for 30 minutes work. But the more surveys that you complete the better the returns. I once completed a 2 hours survey that paid $70. That works out to 35 per hour, which is a good rate to answer a few questions.

If you join a maximum of 3 survey companies, to begin with you will find you have enough work. If you need more work just join another 1 or 2 survey companies. At the end of this article, I will provide a number of links to survey companies that I have had success with and are recommended survey companies to join.



Start a Niche Blog

If you decide to take this route, there are a few things to consider. First, you must be comfortable and interested in what you are writing about. Second, there must be enough interest in your niche to drive sufficient traffic to your niche blog. Affiliate marketing is one route you could take to monetize your blog if there are a sufficient number of products available to promote that sell well. Clickbank is a good affiliate network to find products to promote and it offers products in a large range of niches. If you are driving a lot of traffic to your blog you may decide to monetize your blog with Google Adsense or advertising. See my blog post "How to Find a Profitable Niche".

Sell Second Hand Goods on Auction Sites

Going to yard or garage sales on the weekend can net you some valuable items to sell on online auction site for profit. Furniture and bric-a-brac go for a few dollars at traditional auction houses as people must sell these items, as they have spent time and money transporting them to the auction house. There are numerous guides online that tell you what to buy and what price you can typically ask for. Retro goods are popular, but antiques are not and there is little interest in them. Art is a product that sells depending on the buyer's taste. You can also find some bargains on eBay but you need to do your research to determine whether you can resell it for a profit.

Offer Your Services As a Digital Marketer

If you are a confident digital marketer on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter, you can offer your services to manage other peoples social media accounts. You must know how to get engagement from followers in the form of comments, likes and follows. On Facebook I learned that likes are not the preferred currency, a comment is, in fact, is seen to be more valuable than a like.

Instagram is one social media platform where engagement is common. It is common for people to like a post they have just seen, and then leave a comment and tag several of their friends. The reason for this is that Instagram is a social media platform populated mainly by young people and many of them are female. Middle-aged people are less likely to leave a comment and tag their 10 best friends.

You can advertise your digital marketing services on Fiverr or even on your social media accounts, where buyers can see how many engagements you get and how many followers you have. Your social media account becomes your business card.

There you have it 5 Legit Ways To Make Money Online. These methods of making money online are time-tested and proven. The perks of working from home are many. Remember, if it's snowing you don't have to go to work, or if it is baking hot you can go to the beach instead of home construction. It's your choice you're the boss.

Are Paid Surveys Safe?

Some people want the small reward that paid surveys award you for completing market research projects but are hesitant to participate. This is because they wonder, are paid surveys safe? As a result, they think their privacy and information may be compromised. Professional market research companies must adhere to certain laws which require them to comply with a strict privacy policy.

Names, addresses, emails, and personal details are not connected to the information you provide within the survey. At the beginning of each survey, most market research companies ask you to familiarize yourself with their privacy policy and state that al
