Make Some Extra Money

Who Else Wants to Make Some Extra Money?

How would you like to make some extra money? I think we can pretty much all agree that that’s something we would like to do. What we might not all agree on, however, is how easy extra money is to come by. Well, this article is going to shed some light onto that debate, and hopefully after reading it you will be able to walk away with some answers to your questions as well as some useful ideas about how you can start making extra money today.

One of the best ways I know of to earn some extra cash is to scout out freelance writing gigs.

And let me stop you right there – I know what you’re going to say – and NO, it doesn’t matter if you don’t have a journalism degree or any prior writing experience. Webmasters and business owners aren’t looking for Hemingway quality writing. Their primary concern is that your writing is keyword­rich and SEO­friendly… and that it makes sense, of course. In most cases, if you can write at the level of a high school student, then you will be good to go.

You can find freelance writing gigs on online marketplaces, such as oDesk and Elance. You can also find some good ones on Craig’s List in the writing sections. Sometimes, if you establish a good working relationship with your contracted employer, these freelance gigs can turn into steady, or even full­time, work.

Plus, if you get really good at article writing, you might want to consider branching out to copywriting, which has a much higher payout. There are some professional copywriters who earn as much as $5,000 per sales letter! Copywriting isn’t something that you can just immediately launch into, however. It does take a bit of know­how and skill. If you’d like to learn more about copywriting, then I would highly recommend investing in a product called Copywriting Strategies.

If writing doesn’t sound like your cup of tea, then you can become a seller on eBay. This requires very little money being spent up­front. You can start out by rummaging through your own things and finding hidden treasures that you wouldn’t mind parting with to make a buck.

Then, once you get a feel for the flow of things, you can scout out what the hot­selling items are, contact wholesalers, buy a bunch of them in bulk, and sell them for a profit.

There are so many ways to make extra money, especially when you start leveraging all of the resources available on the Internet. Other good ways to make extra money online include affiliate marketing, product creation, online tutoring and coaching, and data entry jobs. All you have to do is take the time to do a little bit of research beforehand, invest in some high­quality tutorials, and you’ll be making money in no time flat!
