I want to at least familiarize you with some of the more common ways to make a living, or at least make a few bucks online, I have compiled this list. It is by no means exhaustive.

Having said that, not all the items below are even good. Some are downright bad or illegal. But you need to be aware of them in case you decide you want to get involved with one of them.

Disclaimer: The opinions on the items below are mine. I am in no way suggesting that these opinions are the be all and end all. They are based on my own personal experience of almost 4 years as of this
writing. So read them with an open mind. Ultimately you will have to make your own decision as to what you want to get involved with.

1. Paid To Read Emails or Other Paid To Read Programs

Let’s get these out of the way. This is where a company pays you a certain amount per email or ad read. Every company has different pay rates. Some are pennies per email read. Others are hundreds of dollars per
email read. As I said, I am not going to knock any program here but you need to use a little common sense when it comes to these. Who is going to pay you hundreds of dollars for reading an email? Read the
fine print of the contract. You will see in most cases there is a catch. If you want the whole scoop in the Paid To Read thing, there are plenty of threads on the Internet. You will find that many of these programs
either shut themselves down or were shut down because they didn’t pay. However, if you find a program like this that is legit, your earning potential is about a couple hundred dollars a month, if you include recruiting into the mix, which you can do. You will never get rich off of Paid To Read programs.

2. Survey Sites

These are sites that send you surveys which you take. If you qualify for the survey you can earn as much as $25 to $50 for one survey. Most surveys though are for points and discounts. If you spent a whole day doing these it is conceivable that you can make a few hundred dollars a month doing these. You won’t ever get rich
from them. Also, never pay for a list of sites that give surveys. This info is available for free.

3. Randomizers

These are programs where you join, pay your fee, whatever it is and then every time somebody joins a random payment is made to one of its members. One thing you need to be careful of these. PayPal is cracking down on them because they violate their TOS. So if a randomizer uses PayPal as a payment source you may want to think twice about joining. You can lose your PayPal account. Unless you do an awful amount of promoting for these things and get your own members, you potential monthly income is about $20 a month. Randomizers are pretty much dropping like flies so you won’t run into as many of these as you did a year or so ago.

4. Doublers

This is where you put in say, $20 on January 1 and in 90 days, or whatever the term is, you get $40 back. You’ve doubled your money. These are also not as common as years ago but they are still around. The problem with these sites is that they are also against TOS of PayPal and other payment processors. However, if you get into one of these early and put in a lot of money, you can make a bundle real fast. But you are taking a gamble because all of these eventually fold up because the structure can’t support itself. Think about it. If you keep doubling your money every 90 days and never take it out you have this progression.
20, 40, 80, 160, 320, 640, 1280, 2560, 5120, 10,240, 20,480, 40,960, 81,920…etc…
Eventually after a few years they end up having to pay you millions of dollars. Unfortunately, none of these doublers have lasted that long. So be careful with these.

5. Paid Typing Companies

These actually fall into 2 types. The real paid typing companies where you have to actually have typing skills
to get a job and the ones that are nothing more than typing ads on the Internet and getting paid if people buy things. You can actually make a lot of money doing this, if you use the standard Google Adwords as
your advertising medium. Your average person, with a limited budget, only makes about 2 or 3 hundred dollars a month. You do have to pay for Google Ads. They’re not free. The legit typing companies will pay a
standard wage for the work you do, whatever the market will bare at the time. Never pay to get one of these jobs.

6. Selling Advertising

This is actually a very big thing on the Internet. This is where you work for a company that sells people
advertising packages or programs that they claim will effectively promote your business. This is another one of those things where you have to use a little common sense. If these advertising methods are so good, why is everybody using them to promote the company itself and try to get people to buy the advertising package or the tools themselves? Why doesn’t ANYBODY use these tools to promote their OWN business? I’m going to let you answer that question for yourself. Like I said, I’m not going to knock anything in this review. The
earning potential with these can be quite great depending on how much the packages sell for. Some are very cheap, a few hundred dollars, and some are very expensive, in the thousands. If you’re going to promote one of these, think about how easy or hard you think it’s going to be for you to get somebody to spend $3,000 on an advertising program.

7. MLM

Stands for Multi Level Marketing. These are programs where you get people to sign up and hope that they do the same. Some of these programs can be 10 or more levels deep. You need to be careful with these. The ones that have no product or service and are simply pyramids are illegal and will eventually get shut down. What most of these companies do is include things like ebooks, auto responders, etc. so that they give the appearance of being legit. Some actually are. Most of the stuff given away by these are worthless. It’s
hard to know what has value and what doesn’t unless you’re a seasoned marketer. Earning potential with these programs can literally be millions of dollars a year. But 95% of all people who join these fail. That is a statistical fact. You can look it up. The 5% who have some success range in income from a few hundred dollars a month to $10,000 or more. Only about 1% make more than $10,000 per month. Plus, the expense of some of these programs can be quite large. MLM programs have been the cause of many a family ending
up in bankruptcy. So please be cautious with these.

8. Freelance Writing

This falls kind of in the job category as you get paid for the work you do. The problem with this is that it’s hard to find these jobs and they don’t pay much. If you worked 8 hours a day doing this you’ll probably make about $2500 a month. Most people do this in their spare time and maybe make a couple hundred dollars monthly. The trick is finding companies that offer this service or people who will pay you to write for them.

9. Internet Researcher

This is very similar to freelance writing and also very hard to find these jobs. The pay varies greatly depending on the job itself. If you can do this full time, you’ll make a little bit more than a freelance writer since research requires a lot more work. You’re looking at about $3500 a month for 8 hours a day. But this is a tough gig and not easy to find.

10. Mystery Shopping

Actually, this isn’t really an Internet based job. You need to have a car and be able to travel to where they send you. Depending on where you live you can either get a ton of jobs or very few. Geography plays a big role in this. This is something that you can make about $1000 a month doing if you did it full time and
got that much work, but most people make a couple hundred bucks a month at most. With the rising gas prices this isn’t as attractive as it used to be.

11. HYIP

Stands for High Yield Investment Program. 99% of these are illegal and the feds are cracking down on them. The list of HYIPs that have fallen is a mile long, including the big fiasco with 12 Daily Pro. Yes, if you get in early, you can make an amazing amount of money with these if you put in a lot. Even if they do pay 12%, 12% on $20 isn’t going to pay you much money. To earn big you must invest big. If you can afford the risk of losing all your money, which many people have done, then you may want to go in for a quick killing on
one of these. The earning potential is unlimited.

12. Selling Other People’s Products

This is called affiliate marketing and can actually be very lucrative if you put in the time to promote. Ad expenses can chew you up and if you pick products that nobody is interested in you can end up making very little. Clickbank is one of the biggest companies offering this service. It is best to do a lot of research on a product before you decide to try selling it. Because there are so many existing products out there to choose from, this process can take a long time. The earning potential here is unlimited if you have the resources. But again, just like with MLM, 95% of affiliate marketers don’t make any money because they don’t advertise
properly. The other 5% earn anywhere from a few hundred dollars a month to $10,000 a month or more.

13. Selling Items on eBay

Selling your own stuff on eBay can bring in some quick cash.  It won’t necessarily make you rich, unless the items you are selling are of unusually high value.  There is a bit of hassle in dealing with buyers and shipping your products.  But if you need to fund your online business it can be a great way to raise cash.  the problem you will run into is eventually you will run out of things to sell.  There are many ways to aquire products to sell.  Many of the items have very low profit margins and do require some serious work to shuffle things around and put up listings.  Now, with rising fees, the chances of making a living selling on eBay are getting pretty slim. 

14. Creating Your Own Business

This is where you make your own ebook, or start your own service, or maybe even create a product and sell it. The potential with your own business is unlimited depending on what you’re selling. When I say your own business, I don’t mean to join one of these sites that say “We’ll give you your own business.” These are just cookie cutter sites that thousands of other people have. And there is nothing wrong with them. But you will be limited to what you can do with them as most have pretty fixed sales templates. Some are better than others. So do your homework on them if you don’t want to build a product and website from scratch.
