Make Money Online (Without Spending a Dime)

Make Money Online (Without Spending a Dime)

 

Create YouTube Videos

If you can pull in an audience, YouTube advertising can help pay your bills. Whether it’s humor, pets or toy reviews, you can probably monetize your favorite hobby.
It may take time to build that audience that turns views into dollars. The average revenue per 1,000 YouTube views is just over $6. But with enough videos for fans to scroll through, those views can add up over time.

Look at Ads on Your Smartphone

Don’t mind seeing advertisements every time you pick up your phone? Install Slidejoy on your Android phone and you can earn a few extra bucks every month — up to $60 per year!
This app is only available to U.S.-based Android users. When it’s time to get paid, you can choose to receive cash or gift cards to retailers like CVS, Target, Sephora and more.


Sell Your Tweets

Love hanging out on Twitter? Here’s how to make money online doing it.
Your devoted following could mean extra cash. Marketing companies that work with major brands can pay $25 per tweet or more for you to promote a product, though you’ll probably need to have a pretty big audience for this to work.
Sites like PaidPerTweet allow you to set your own price, which means companies come to you when there’s a good fit available. But the more you participate, the more you can charge to send promoted tweets.

 

Create an Online Course

Have a skill to share? Teaching through Udemy or Skillshare could bring in big bucks.
Higher education might be super expensive, but many people will pay $50 or $100 (at least!) to learn something new from an expert.
You’ll have to invest your time planning your curriculum and recording the videos that will accompany your course. But a high-quality presentation will seem all the more valuable to your potential students.


Sell Your Snapshots

Upload your smartphone photos to Foap and let people buy a license to use them.
You get $5 every time one of your photos sells. Your photo can even sell more than once, so that $5 for a beautiful landscape shot could turn into $20, $50, or $100 if enough people want to buy it.
Unfortunately, your Instagram feed is ineligible. So snap a picture before you upload it to Instagram, and send the unedited and uncropped version to Foap.


 

Perform Quick Tasks on Fiverr

Don’t mind doing the small tasks that other people hate?
Offer your services on Fiverr for $5 per gig. Check our post on Fiverr to brainstorm services you can offer, from the practical to the fun and bizarre!
Just make sure it’s worth your time to perform tasks for $5 apiece. Anything that takes more than 15 minutes probably isn’t worth the effort.

Test Websites

Sign up to help companies determine how customers use their websites.
This guy found a way to get paid for testing websites while he drinks beer.  Other sites like UserTest, and UserFeel pay about $10 to test sites.




Write for Your Favorite Blogs

Blogging isn’t all about pajamas and basement living — it’s a big business. You can earn $50, $100, or more by contributing to one of your favorite blogs.




Find Virtual Odd Jobs on TaskRabbit

TaskRabbit helps you connect with regular people who need help getting things done — everything from picking up dry cleaning to calling customer service and tolerating the hold music.
Keep an eye out for virtual tasks, which are mostly centered around personal assistance, administrative work or research help.
Last year, TaskRabbit established a pricing floor of $14 for its Taskers. You can rest assured that you won’t be getting paid pennies to solve someone’s Excel woes.



AFFILIATE MARKETING
You can make money by earning commissions for sending customers to their business through clicks on banners placed on your website. The first thing you will need is a website or blog of your own which you can market to these businesses. You do so by signing up through affiliate marketing networks, or through a company that has its own affiliate marketing system, such as Amazon or, in Kenya, Jumia. Once you sign up, you will be able to track the number of people who have clicked on advertisers’ banners and been redirected to the companies’ sites. These are the clicks that will earn you commissions.
