Leverage the Internet and Learn How to Earn a Little Extra Money Online; It’s a Cinch! How would you like to earn a little extra money? With the holidays coming up, I’m sure that’s something that just about everyone would be interested in, because let’s face it the season of giving is super expensive! Leveraging the Internet is a great way to make a little bit of extra cash, as it can afford you with tons of money­making opportunities, many of which are very simple to do and can be done from the comfort of your own home. If you’d like to learn more about how to make money online, then continue reading this article, as it will detail several easy options available to you. eBay The popular online auction website is a fantastic way to earn extra money. You will need to set up an account and decide how you would like to collect payments (the easiest way in my opinion is to go through PayPal). You can sell just about anything on eBay, including cars and expensive electronics. When you are listing items, you want to take the time to write an enticing and detailed description of your products, making sure to sprinkle in lots of relevant keywords so as to make your listings easier for people to find. You also want to include as many pictures as possible. To start, you can begin selling items that you have lying around your own house; think of it as a virtual garage sale! Then, once you get into the swing of things, you can contact wholesalers and purchase hot­selling items in bulk that you can then turn around and sell for a profit. Product Creation Creating your own products is another great way to make money online. This method is a bit more labor­intensive, but it can be very lucrative. Your products don’t have to be anything fancy; they can be something as simple as a how­to eBook about a topic that you are particularly interested in; for example, “A Beginner’s Guide to Meditation” or “How to Lose 20 Pounds in 30 Days.” Once you have your product created, you can sell it on Amazon, who will take a small cut of the profit. You will also probably want to do some marketing so as to spread the word about what you have to offer. Consider creating a Twitter account or a Facebook Fan Page.

This product will teach you how to ethically manipulate Facebook so that you can reach up to 500 million people! Online Marketplaces These are really awesome places to find hoards of lucrative freelance opportunities. Some of the best online marketplaces include oDesk.com and Elance.com. If you are a good writer or at least possess the writing skills of a high school student, then you can


do especially well on these marketplaces, as there just about always are freelance writing opportunities. The way that online marketplaces work is that you find a job listing that you think you are qualified for then you place a bid and wait to see if your proposal is accepted. If it is, your contracted employer will provide you with the job details as well as payment information. If you are looking for ways to make extra money, then the Internet is the way to go. Do some research and invest in some quality guides and the fruits of your labor will be rewarded.
