http://changeisnear.com - There are literally hundreds, if not thousands of ways to make money online.
All of these ways are derivatives of two basic ways, which are selling your own products & services, and selling other people’s products & services. Each has their advantages and disadvantages, and I personally do a little of both. Today’s post is basically to show you a few of my favorite places to work online. I do offer web services and have my own websites to make money as well, but now we will focus on other places I go to make even more money.
Here are the top five places I do a lot of my online work:
Examine all of the ways your home business appears in the marketplace and be sure you have a consistent message and presentation. Whether it is your business cards, web site or social media business page, keeping your messaging professional and synchronized helps you promote your business appropriately and clearly across multiple channels.
1) Microworkers (Paid To Do Short Tasks)
This is a place to make a little bit of money quick. You get paid to do random tasks online like tweeting, blogging, reviewing, signing up, etc. This isn’t a place where you will make a fortune, but you can make an extra $50-$100 a month if you complete most of the tasks available to you. The great thing about Micro Workers is that most of the tasks take between 1 minute and 10 minutes to complete so it’s easy to accumulate cash and you can do it during slow times or when you take a break from your regular activities.
2) Fiverr (Create Five Dollar Gigs)
Attracting clients to your home business is integral to its success. Social media because of its popularity can be a critical medium for advertising and marketing your business. Your business should have its Social Media feed. You can also find creative ways to market your business on websites like Reddit and Digg. Finally, since you are working from home and likely using the same computers for both personal and business use, make sure to keep the accounts separate!
TIP! Put a business signature on the bottom of your email. You send out tens, if not hundreds, of email each day to clients, potential customers, family and friends.
Fiverr is the marketplace for $5 gigs, basically you get to list things you would do for $5. It’s free to join and list, they get a $1 commission on each one of your sales, so you pocket $4 for each gig you sell. Gigs range from social marketing, web design, audio and video services, to even more complex things, some even weird. If you can find a good balance between a solid gig people will want to pay five bucks for and the amount of time it takes you to do the gig, then you can make some decent cash here.
3) Social Media (Paid to Tweet, Share on Facebook)
You can find people to pay you to tweet to your Twitter followers or share with your Facebook friends, or even easier than that you can just tweet and share affiliate links to different products a

7. 3) Social Media (Paid to Tweet, Share on Facebook)
You can find people to pay you to tweet to your Twitter followers or
share with your Facebook friends, or even easier than that you can just
tweet and share affiliate links to different products and collect a
commission on each sale. Usually you want to find products that you
think your friends or followers will be interested in.
8. The best ways to find affiliate links to make money is to search for stores
or e-commerce websites selling items in your field of interest and see if
they have an affiliate program. If you want you can join a general affiliate
network that gives you access to thousands of different products like
Commission Junction, eBay Partner Network, Amazon Associates, e-
Junkie or Click Bank to name a few. You can use this on other social
networks also, but Twitter and Facebook are the easiest and largest to
use.
9. Leveraging social media for your home business is an absolute must!
Both brick-and-mortar stores as well as online-only companies will find
that it not only expands your reach but also creates a conversation with
your customers. People love it when a company replies to their
questions or comments on Twitter or Facebook!
10. 4) Freelancing (Find Paid Online Work Fast)
If ever you need to find work fast, you’ll want to turn to a freelancing
marketplace, where you can literally find thousand of shorts, medium
and long term jobs or tasks for you to do and get paid for, from simple
data entry to more complex programming jobs, you can find it all. The
two major marketplaces for freelancers are eLance and Freelancer. Both
have thousands of jobs posted, you pick the ones you like and decide
how much you want to charge, and then hope you are the picked
freelancer to do the work.
11. 5) Write Articles (Get Paid For Your Writing Skills)
Writing articles is a great way to earn Income. You can spend 15 to 20
minutes on research, and write an awesome article. Just make sure you
are not copying someones work and you are good to go. There are so
many people out there that would rather pay to get a good article
written and do other productive activities with their time.
12. There are hundreds of websites that will pay for your articles, short or
long, about anything. What is great about this, is you can write about
anything you want, you get paid to write about things of interest to you.
Of course the more popular your articles are the more you will get paid,
most places will either share the ads publish on your work or share the
sale of your work for publishing purposes. The four places I usually write
for are eZineArticles, HubPages, Squidoo and Triond.
