10 New Ways to Make Money Online
February 22nd, 2007 (1:40pm) Anne Zelenka 386 Comments
So you want to ditch your corporate cubicle and join the ranks of web workers? But you have a mortgage, maybe a dependent or two, and a taste for Venti Mochas from Starbucks? You can make money in the new economy, though it might not be as easy or cushy as keeping your old economy job.
I’m not talking about advertising or affiliate marketing or selling your junk on eBay. Those are so last millennium! I’m talking about the new new economy.
1. Offer your professional expertise in an online marketplace.These days, you can do more than just sell your old books via Amazon and your old Coach handbags via eBay—now you can sell your professional capabilities in a marketplace. No longer are you limited to looking for a permanent or contract job on Web 1.0 style job sites like Monster or CareerBuilder. The new breed of freelancing and project-oriented sites let companies needing help describe their projects. Then freelancers and small businesses offer bids or ideas or proposals from which those buyers can choose.
Elance covers everything from programming and writing to consulting and design, while RentACoder focuses on software, natch. If you’re a graphic designer, check out options like Design Outpost or LogoWorks–you don’t have to find the customers, they’ll come to you. Wannabe industry analysts might sign up for TechDirt’s Insight Community, a marketplace for ideas about technology marketing.
2. Sell photos on stock photography sites. If people regularly oooo and aaaaah over your Flickr pics, maybe you’re destined for photographic greatness or maybe just for a few extra dollars. It’s easier than ever to get your photos out in front of the public, which of course means a tremendous amount of competition, but also means it might be an convenient way for you to build up a secondary income stream. Where can you upload and market your photos? Try Fotolia, Dreamstime, Shutterstock, and Big Stock Photo.
3. Blog for pay. Despite the explosion of blogs, it’s hard to find good writers who can turn around a solidly-written post on an interesting topic quickly. GigaOM is always looking for bloggers with great content ideas and solid writing skills. How do you get noticed? Comment and link to blogging network sites. Write blog posts that are polished and not overly personal (although showing some personality is a plus).
4. Or start your own blog network. If you like the business side of things–selling advertising, hiring and managing employees, attracting investors–and have the stomach to go up against the likes of Weblogs, Inc., GigaOmniMedia, b5media, maybe you should make an entire business out of blogs. Don’t make the mistake of thinking you’ll get a lot of time to write yourself though.
5. Provide service and support for open source software. Just because the software is free doesn’t mean you can’t make money on it–just ask Red Hat, a well-known distributor of Linux that sports a market cap of more than four billion dollars. As a solo web worker, you might not want to jump in and compete with big companies offering Linux support, but how about offering support for web content management systems like WordPress or Drupal? After getting comfortable with your own installation, you can pretty easily jump into helping other people set them up and configure them.
6. Online life coaching. Who has time to go meet a personal coach at an office? And don’t the new generation of web workers need to be met by their coaches in the same way that they work: via email, IM, and VoIP? You could, of course, go through some life coaching certification program, but on the web, reputation is more important than credentials. I bet Tony Robbins isn’t certified as a life coach–and no one can argue with his success. For an example of someone building up their profile and business online as a coach, check out Pamela Slim of Ganas Consulting and the Escape from Cubicle Nation blog.
7. Virtually assist other web workers. Freelancers and small businesses desperately need help running their businesses, but they’re not about to hire a secretary to come sit in the family room and answer phone calls. As a virtual assistant, you might do anything from making travel reservations to handling expense reimbursements to paying bills to arranging for a dog sitter. And you do it all from your own home office, interacting with your clients online and by phone. You can make $20 and up an hour doing this sort of work, depending on your expertise.
8. Build services atop Amazon Web Services. Elastic computing on AWS is so cool… and so incredibly primitive right now. Did you know that you can’t even count on your virtual hard drive on EC2 to store your data permanently? That’s why people are making money right now by offering services on top of AWS. Make it easier for people to use Amazon’s scalability web infrastructure like Enomaly has with elasticlive, a scalable web hosting platform built on AWS.
9. Write reviews for pay or perks. If you blog for any length of time on a particular topic–parenting, mobile phones, or PCs, for example–you will likely be approached to do book or product reviews. You can get free stuff this way, but are you selling your soul? Is there any such thing as a free laptop? These are decisions you’ll have to make for yourself, because no one agrees upon what ethical rules apply to bloggers. Even less do people agree on services like PayPerPost that pay you to write reviews on your blog. Check out disclosure rules closely and see whether such a gig would meet your own personal standards or not.
10. Become a virtual gold farmer. A half million Chinese now earn income by acquiring and selling World of Warcraft gold to gamers in other countries. If you’re not a young person living in China, this probably isn’t a viable option for you. But what’s intriguing about it is the opportunity to make real money working in a virtual economy. People are making real-world money in Second Life too.
What other new ways do you know of to make money online?

Seriously … can anyone possibly make honest money at online marketplaces? I posted about this here. If anyone has figured it out, I’d love feedback about it.
For now my conclusion is that these sites are strictly for offshore chops shops and bottom feeders.

There is another way to make cash on the net that I keep hearing a lot about. It seems to be that there are so many people out there selling products using affiliate marketers for their sales that a new job market is exploding… A manger is needed to keep up with all the array of things that sellers have to do…from paychecks to helping network the marketers and give support, etc. I really don’t know how to affiliate market so my description may be a little rough. I intend to go to a conference in Nashville and learn all the ins and outs of affiliate marketing. Supposedly, there will be people there looking to hire the new managers coming to the conference. I am not interested in that, but I hear the commissions are lucrative. I just want to earn cash at home and stay with my little ones. Anyway, the conference url is http://www.affiliatemarketingmanagerconfence.com . I hope I spelled that right. I don’t know how to make that a link on here so sorry about that. Thanks for the info BTW…It was very informing! KE

If anybody is actually serious about looking to earn money through the net, the most viable way that I could see through my experience is learn how to link build. In today’s market the importance of ranking highly with in search engines is vital, if a website has a high amount a relevant inbound links to a site, this can be very beneficial to its ranking.
However:
Getting relevant inbound links to a site can be very time consuming and require a great deal of research and patience. If you are willing to find good links for website then this can be very lucrative. I know that web agencies or even individual businesses would pay good money for someone to carry out this service for them. It can be done on a freelance basis and doesn’t require much skill apart from knowing your way around the net and having the creativity to find ways in which to get a good inbound link to a website.

Selling and buying gold in World of Warcraft is against the terms of service you agree to when you install the game. If they catch you, you will pretty much be banned from the game and all your work will be for nothing.

Robert says: February 23rd, 2007 9:36am
This is a great article, but I think your readers should also understand a few “hard truths” about your first option — particularly the graphic design route you mentioned. I have done some research (http://www.creativelatitude.com/articles/article_0905_wurth.html) about the realities of these services and they are great money-makers for the parent company, but lousy for the individual trying to earn a living.
LogoWorks, for example, opperates as something of a contest. When a job comes in, many designers are expected to contribute time and effort. Only one will be chosen. At the time of my research, designers were only paid “up to” $40 per logo (with a “possibility” for a little more — but only if their design is chosen by the client). That sounds like a lot, but consider that in order to gross $25,000 a year (barely an entry-level starting salary for a designer), one would have to contribute 12 original logos a week, for 52 weeks — that’s 624 original designs over the course of a year.
By those numbers, it becomes clear that any sort of sustainable income through those kinds of services is pretty much impossible — even the best designer would quickly burn out. But to be fair, someone might be able to make some short-term cash.
Cage says: February 23rd, 2007 9:44am
These are some good tips. Anyone that puts a little effort into whatever project they choose can make money online.
Gene says: February 23rd, 2007 10:16am
I recently saw a really cool way to make money. It’s called “Painting A Day Blog”. If you are creative and motivated, you can paint a small painting a day and post it in your online blog. The prices can be low and it seems like the business is going really well and a lot of the paintings gets sold.
I guess it can be applied to any creative enterprise.

lnxwalt says: February 23rd, 2007 1:08pm
I think that a lot of people are still focused on the *physical* world. That’s where the most customers are, so whatever we do needs to be useful in the real world if we want to be able to keep at it for a while. There are plenty of business ideas and work-at-home systems that involve marketing something over the Internet (whether the Web or e-mail or blogs or chatrooms), but most of them fail because they need to have a value equality:
* Customers need to obtain good value for the price from whatever they purchase.
* Sellers (that’s you) need to obtain a good price for whatever you offer.
* The company marketing the system needs to offer you good value for what you pay to get involved with their system, and they obviously have to get something out of it. Some of the ideas (selling your services through a freelancing site) may be zero-price, but the same reciprocal benefit must apply.
* Sellers need a way to market their product / service, attracting attention from potential buyers without being offensive (e.g., spamming, spimming, or splogging) or dishonest (unacknowledged posting for pay). They have to cut through the constant clutter of “hey, buy from ME!” that permeates radio, television, print media, and most Web sites.
Where the Internet offers an advantage is in “location utility.” You no longer have to have a physical office in the business district of your customer’s town. I just do not see most of us setting up a profit-making shop in Second Life or something. In that sense, I don’t expect that there is all that much difference between “Web 2.0″ business models and older online business models.

This post really illustrates another point too - be sure to make contacts in your field and ask them a lot of questions.. you would be surprised how much someone will tell you - people love to help!!
Anyway, Kelly, definitely shoot me an email with the name I used here at gmail.com.
Good Luck!!!

Randy Davis says: February 23rd, 2007 10:35pm
This article gave some great ideas, but there are many other available on the internet. You can get your own product store or have an online travel agency or market a huge array of products and service all run from the internet. On-line education for example. There is huge assortment of on-line courses available (Webucation as Peter Drucker of Forbes Magazine called it). Learn a language, learn a skill, learn how to make money in the stock market.
Besides all of that making money from home is a business. Our tax system is designed to help business, not employees. So you can work from home and write off all kinds of things on your taxes as business expenses. Besides I love my 20 second commute and the lack of wear and tear on my car isn’t bad either.
Welcome to the 21st Century!

I found your post interesting because #10 was on Second Life. I actually tried it out and loved the idea, but without a super fast compuer expect major crashing problems. The program is meant for a person that can put serious money into an updated computer.
I believe for most bloggers that write well and make you feel good after reading their blog will do best with freelance journalism work. As for myself I like to reply as many discussions and create discussion on stocks I trade through finance.google.com
Although my blog isn’t a big hit because my niche is trading stocks, which isn’t something the masses read about, I still do pretty well being found on the search engines, other finance blogs, and google discussion boards. I’d like to put some googleAds on my site, but feel I’m not receiving enough traffic to make it profitable yet.
It would be awesome to be paid to research stocks and blog about them like I already do, but I’m still much of a newby in stocks.
thanks for your post,

I think the people who don’t think that they can make money doing these things are motivated and don’t have the entrepreneurial attitude to make money. I’ve started things that will make me money only to quit because I didn’t have the patience to get it to work.

:) I found that people will pay amazing money for virtual items.
http://www.neopets.com is a virtual petsite, that also has a TCG, Neopets, that comes with a “rare item code” in each pack - the rare item code often sells for more then the cost of the packet, depending on which release of the TCG - certain ones are better then the other..
The really funny thing is that it’s a complete gamble. They enter the code into the website, and can get something good - or complete unusable junk.
:D
Thought you might find that funny, in the vein of things - money from virtual item codes, which could be total junk :D
Rob says: February 24th, 2007 4:30pm
As a professional graphic designer, I must take exception to item #1, particularly the suggestion that designers looking to start or advance a freelance career turn to company’s (or their faceless websites) like elance, logoworks, or the like. These companys/sites are built upon a model that pits designers against designers in a bidding contest that does little to advance one’s career, but does make great progress in devaluing the profession as a whole.
I am certainly not alone in this belief, as within the professional design community there is a large (and rather vocal) opposition to this type of business model. This opposition is exacerbated by the much-publicized cases in which some of these companys (like LW for example) ripping off the work of other designers and re-selling it their own after only minor modifications.
Furthermore, many of these sites require that designers submit ’sample concepts’ in response to a would-be client’s request, to be judged against other submissions and the ‘winner’ will be chosen for the paying project. This type of work, known as “speculative work”, is frowned upon by most professional designers as it ultimately does a great dis-service to everyone involved. A very long and growing list of independent designers, as well as agencies and pro orgs, have signed on to a movement/commitment to not engage in such activity. To learn more about this issue (and the campaign to address it) I encourage you to visit http://www.no-spec.com/

As a professional virtual assistant, I must say your Item #7 is very misleading. A professional VA does not sit in your living room and take phone calls.
A VA is a business owner who partners with other business owners to provide collaborative, ongoing relationships. In simplest terms, I am a small business owner who provides back-end or administrative solutions to other small business owners on a long-term basis. I am not an employee nor a temp. I am a professional who chooses my own clients based on our mutual goals. As such, our industry charges on average $35-75 per hour, based on expertise and the services we choose to offer. We have many years of previous administrative experience that prepares us for being a VA. Some of us choose to also provide specialty services such as web design, bookkeeping, etc.
Thank you for allowing me to shed some light on what a VA is and does. If you need the services of a VA or want more information, visit my web site at . You can also check out my blog at

Excellent Article! I loved the way you listed out all those methods to make money online. I admit that I was alien to most of the methods listed here, apart from a few like PayPerPost and service selling.
I personally use PayPerPost to make a quick buck, which I use to cover up my hosting fees and the rest, I contribute to charity.
Anyway, this article was extremely useful, and I had never thought deeply about selling my photos online! I’m such an idiot! I’ve bought stock photos very many times for my design or editing work, but I never thought of it in the reverse way - that I could SELL my photos. Ofcourse, I’m just an amatuer at photography, but heaven knows….
So thanks for this article! It was EXTREMELY good, useful and unlike other “make a buck!” articles, was full of content. I’m sure that all readers found your article extremely useful in shaping their future online lives.
Cheers,
Mohan

you have obviously never worked on Elance, the top rated user there who claims 500 employees has a turn over on Elance of under 300 USD / month, this site is full of fake projects posted by software companies themselves to settle score with other companies or by buyers looking to rip providers that are in turn looking for buyers to rip off, working on Elance is indentured hell, with all the noise and the smoke you end up being fooled into thinking that you are doing great, but if you ever get a minute to catch your breath from all the lower-than-minimum US average wage (yes that is right mos of the larger projects there are 300 to 1000 man hours, if a buyer pays out what the companies claim to charge ie. 15 and 20 and 25, and 30 and 35 USD / hr, that makes the job cost 4500USD when you pick the cheapest for 300 work, yes ? no , go over to Elance and take a look yourself, the REAL business over there works as follows 500 hours of work for 3000 USD, 500 hours is to build a site like http://www.hotelsupermarket.com and add in an SMS based ERp system )
when faced with these kinds of impossible demands sellers do exactly what buyers hope they will not, they resell stolen code, they claim to stick to the NDA but resell your custom code, they resell GNU code minus the GNU license, ie. in order to stay in the black they cut HUGE corners
i can buy 1000 ” scripts ” ranging from dating sites to my space clones to what have you all for a measly 150 USD in India right now,
when buyers forces sellers to work faster for peanuts, they hit back with dishonesty,
im sure you read of the case in India where a reporter posing as a buyer was able to bring an IT manager at one of the larger outsource providers around to part with sensitive customer data of one of its customers, a large British bank (!), for a pittance - under 5000 USD. this is just ONE of them, stealing and reselling data to the highest bidder is a cottage industry in India just like pirated DVDs and CDs are in China and Malaysia,
there isnt ONE online market place that attacts buyers that pay decently. PERIOD.
i did it for almost 3 years and i have had to fight tooth and nail to keep body and soul together with what I have earned.

Granted, most of these ways are not going to replace a salaried job with benefits at a major corporation. There can be painful consequences from the globalization and increasing marketization of professional work. But it’s useful to be aware of them–and use them if you can to establish secondary income streams or explore new ways to work.
Rob - how is it bad for customers to get to choose from a number of different possibilities before they have to commit money? I know of a number of small businesses who hired web designers only to receive designs that were unacceptable. Had they been able to review options from multiple designers first, they would have been better served.
It’s not at all clear to me how designer vs. designer devalues the design profession. Has blogging devalued the writing profession, just because everything we write is available for the whole world to see and judge? On the contrary, I find it makes me even more aware of good writing when I come across it.

Most professional life, business and ADD/ADHD coaches work over the phone, not in person. In person coaching is the exception not the rule. Kind of hard to decipher peoples emotions over email or IM.
A word of warning. some people who say they’re “coaches” are actually consultants or therapists who call themselves a coach because they perceive it to be a more popular or more marketable term.
Tony Robbins may or may not have done any coach training courses but you might want to think carefully about calling yourself a coach with out any training unless you’ve done as much personal development work as Tony has.
Encouraging people to be a fraud as a business model may not be a great idea.
Bullshit artists on the web often get found out and exposed. If you get exposed on the net for pretending to be something you’re not to increase your income another 10%, that might toast your whole online reputation and your whole business model.

Also, there are many ways online to promote yourself as an expert, including contributing articles at sites such as Squidoo or writing a guide at Work.com, a how-to business site.

Making money online always has been a secret catch. However, the only catch to this offer is your time one to five hours a month! Now, I dont know about you but I already spend ore than that! Why not make some $$$ out of it. This is an investment in the net. Marketers and Data Colectors pay large sums of $$$ and you see none of it! My advise take the time to click on the link and follow up on it and click the refferal link. It pays to tell others once you sign up! Signing Up is easy Name, Email, City, state and Zip. No personal information other than that! (Visit: ” http://www.squidoo.com/agloco89referal/ “)

Those are some excellent 10 ways to make money online. But I feel that when it comes to making “LOTS OF MONEY” online, the biggest mistake that most webmasters make is not having enough of one of two things (or both): Links And Content………….
The Internet Marketing Genius, Carael Knight
Information powers our world. The more information you have, the more money you make. It used to be you had to go to an expensive business school or spend years becoming a doctor or lawyer to have valuable information people would pay big money for.
Not anymore. Today ANYONE can use FREE classified ads to sell information demanded daily by MILLIONS of people. Think about it. These days when somebody wants to know how to do something, they GO ONLINE and look for INFORMATION to tell them how to do it.
My name is Carael Knight. I started Major Enterprise about seven years ago with a vision and a plan.
The vision was to show people how to start, run, and operate their own profitable online business. Now that led me to create the plan, which was the process of carrying out the vision!

Hello Everyone,
Out of everyone here, I am probably the most skeptical person when it comes to making money via the internet given all the scams and get-rich-quick schemes out there. Well, to the cut to the chase, a friend of mine turned me over to a new business opportunity which provides discounts for its members for over 175,000 name brand nationwide products and services! At the same time, members are given an opportunity to earn a commission.
When I first heard about this, I was like, no way! I thought that this was just a another hyped up version of an entertainment card service…So I thought, what the heck….if I joined the worst that could happened is that I would pay less money on products and services at a reasonable cheap rate.
To my surprise, I made a profit after the first two weeks without doing anything! Of course, the real money comes from one’s performance.
Well, if you want to know more about this click on this link (or paste into your browser):

You can get about $100/month by uploading contacts (names and addresses from business cards) to Jigsaw.com. After you build up enough points (2000 points, which is equivalent to adding 400 names and addresses) you then are elgible for monthly compensation for each additional contact added. Compensation is $0.50/name and address, plus a $0.50-per-contact bonus if another member buys your contact within 30 days. There is an upper limit of about $100/month that Jigsaw will pay out to any one contributor — which allows them to spread out payment to more members.
Now for the best part — you can use your point balance to buy other contacts that you wish to obtain. In other words, if you do a search and find a dozen contacts that you wish to buy, you need only raid your business card stash and enter in a dozen of yours to get enough points.

One of the best ways to make money online is to OWN your own information site.
Give away freebies but charge for the important IN demand items.
What is the largest IN demand item you can think of?
SEARCH ENGINE INFORMATION!
What if you could provide information FASTER then one doing a search?
Online forums/advertising portals are the hottest trend (been a member in many of them for years)
Now with that I have just begun work on MY OWN portal.
An imformation website.
I would say take YOUR own invention/product/idea/recipe whatever and market it.
Forget making others rich on RE-SELLER mini sites.

I will have to say that writing an information product and selling it is an excellent way to make money online without starting with a lot of costs.
When i first did it i never thought that i could compete with books at Banes and Noble or Amazon price wise with less content. I sold an ebook for $27, then $47, then $67, all the way up to $97 USD!
Its all about the niche researching, marketing, and having the right advertising copy. Traffic plus conversion equals lots of money.
The beauty with selling information products is after you sell them you keep nearly 100% of the profit! You don’t have to ship anything, you can send it by digital delivery, its effortless. Plus there are so many more ways to monetize off selling information products as well, can offer upsells and backends, you can make good money doing it.

( I do like to surf the net) There are so many websites and scams. What does someone like me do to get out of the “rat-race”? I have to be somewhat practical….I need real income, insurance or make enough money to buy my own insurance, you know the usual things. I have applied to a few companies, but nothing so far. I don’t expect to get RICH, just get the bills paid and take a vacation sometime. What now? Sooooooo confused.

People are skeptical about making money online because of the scammers and of the “gurus” who basically are only making money for themselves.
It makes the job much harder for legitimate opportunities like we have to offer.
So, I do what I can, and help many people locally and all those online that I can.
This blog entry was quite helpful and if more people looked at legitimate information like this, they could not only succeed at making some money, but they could develop multiple streams of income which is what we go over.

Yeah, finding a work from home business can be very difficult. All the money you have to spend just to find out its another scam is CRAZY. I just started with a new company thats completely free to join and you can earn money by doing your normal everyday shopping in your own mall. They have all the name brand stores, Target, Kmart, Old Navy, Petsmart etc. Its a great new concept. Its not mlm nor affliate. Check it out at http://www.debpowermall.com, absolutely no hidden cost or b.s!!

The biggest problem I see with mlm and affiliate programs out there, is that most of your commissions are just one time pay off only.
What if the affiliate program itself was one based on recurring commissions? And based on a product that literally ALL webworkers would need? There’s a huge market out there for hosting, content management, autoresponders, domain names etc that people are already paying a monthly/yearly fee for. It’s like once you refer a few webworkers to its service, you wont need to pay for your hosting anymore - and you’ll start earning from it already (and that’s not considering your other income stream - your actual website).
I found one such program here, maybe you guys would like to give it a try..

Or you could try People Per Hour http://www.peopleperhour.com; it’s a newly launched marketplace for freelancers with a strong focus on individual people (as opposed to companies bidding for work like some other marketplaces).
All you need is an internet connection.

A lot of people who posted here said the best way to make money online is to create a blog about “how to make money online”. Seems like a smart-assed remark, but, actually, it is a good idea. But, honestly, it is so hard to maintain a blog and actually make money from it via advertising.
So, write up a document in word, and post it to a contents marketplace like http://www.gazhoo.com. Gazhoo is a user-generated content marketplace…so, what you can do is upload the document for $1 and sell potentially thousands of copies…much better than advertising fees. The price is cheap and, thus, attractive to users.

Jared Spurbeck says: August 1st, 2007 10:28am
I’d like to echo the previous poster, who pointed out that selling World of Warcraft gold can get you banned. Ditto for Final Fantasy XI, where they have actually created a “Special Task Force” devoted to taking down “RMT” (”Real Money Trading”) characters.
Most players look on buying virtual gold as “cheating,” and ostracize those who are known to have done so. They especially dislike the gold sellers themselves, as they frequently use cheats and monopolize spawns of monsters and resources. This goes for pretty much any game.
There are a few games where it’s possible to make real-world money without cheating or breaking the ToS, such as Entropia Universe. These are clearly advertised as such, however.

These all sound like great ideas and some of them I never heard of before like mining virtual gold for world of warcraft users. That is really far out there. I still believe though that nothing will ever replace the appeal of affiliate marketing or network marketing online because everybody will always be looking for the easiest and fastest way to make money online or offline. Although these ideas are very good ways to make money, most people don’t want to work that hard for it and are looking for the easy way out.

My blog - href=”http://stevesmoneymaking.blogspot.com/”>making money online , teaches these topics, except I use a couple of tricks you never saw on those other “make money online” blogs.

You know what? When I find out how to make decent money online I won’t be sharing it with anyone. I don’t believe all these Adsense and Affiliate “How I made a million bucks online” stories. Except for guys like Marcus Frind of Plenty of Fish and this newest sensation 17 year old Ashley Qualls of the free Myspace layouts site Whateverlife - both these people are offering something unique and they are both highly skilled programmers. The rest of us are just dreamers. Ashley Qualls is making $70k a month. At 17. Sigh.
