Check out 3 Fantastic Ideas to Make Extra Money Online Are you looking for ideas to make extra money? If you are, then you’ve definitely come to the right place. The Internet is a great place to look to scout out tons of legitimate money­making opportunities. There definitely are scams to be leery of, however. So do exercise caution before you sign up or commit to anything. As a general rule of thumb, you should avoid any opportunities that require a large sum of money up­front or the divulgence of too much personal information. With that said, if you know the right places to look, you can easily find opportunities that are both legitimate and lucrative. Online marketplaces like Elance.com and oDesk.com are two great places to look for online freelancing opportunities, which can include things like writing, programming, and designing. The way that these marketplaces work is that you create an account, then you perfuse the various job listings until you find one for which you think they are suitable. Then, you make a bid and wait to see if your proposal is accepted. If it is, your contracted employer will contact you with more job details and a timeline within which you need to complete the task. If you finish the job well and in a timely manner, your employer will leave you a favorable review. The more good reviews you get, the more likely you are to be accepted for higher­paying, more coveted jobs. If writing is one of your fortes, then you will do exceptionally well in these marketplaces. The reason for this is because freelance writing assignments typically pay well, and there is never a shortage of time. Plus, freelance writing gigs include a range of assignment types, including article writing, blog posts and commentary, social media updates, and copywriting. Copywriting is an especially lucrative writing field in which to get involved. Some professional copywriters can earn up to $5,000 per sales letter.

Engage in some traffic driving techniques, encouraging people to visit your site. Then, the way that you will earn money as an affiliate marketer is every time a visitor to your site makes a purchase based on one of your referral links, you will earn a commission, which is usually in the vicinity of 10% to 15%.
