Welcome to part two of “7 Ways to Make Money Online”. Glad you’ve made it this far! Here is our continued list of make money online opportunities…
#5 Get Paid to Write…
Writing is one of the easiest ways to make money online; with the massive growth of the internet there’s never been more demand on the internet for writers. Websites are always in need of new content and they’re happy to pay for it. The best way to find at-home writing work is to become a member at some of the many freelance websites and forums specializing in this type of work.
Not only can you find short term work, but if you do well and impress your employer a small gig can often turn into long term or even permanent employment.
Another option is to submit your content to websites that offer revenue-sharing opportunities. They will provide you with the platform to host your writing on, and in return for your work, they’ll split any ad revenue that your articles generate.
With the revenue sharing option you get more leeway in the kind of content you can write and will earn a percentage (approx. 40-50%) of the ad revenue that your articles generate.
As a traditional freelance writer, you’ll bid on jobs and get paid a predetermined amount for a specific amount of work. Click here for our complete list of Writing Job Websites.
#6 Micro Jobs…
Many companies are outsourcing simple tasks that, for one reason or another, can’t be done by a computer. These “micro jobs” can range from specialized tasks to basic actions that a computer simply can’t handle, such as appropriately labeling photographs for example.
There are many routes that you can take with this type of work. If you have a skill set for specific tasks such as web-design then you don’t have to focus on just the basic jobs. There have been many huge design projects that have been done through the use of the micro job model.
Due to their success, there are quite a few websites that offer this type of work. Everything from answering a question to submitting a design, or to helping name a new product or website.

#7 Get Paid to Take Stock Photos…
You can make money selling simple everyday photos. You don’t have to be an artist or an expert photographer to make this work. People need stock photos for their blogs, websites, presentations, and much more. Often times it’s the most basic things that they’re looking for. When someone purchases your photo you get paid a commission, it’s as simple as that.
Here’s a list of sites where you can get started: Fotolia.com, ShutterStock, and iStockphoto.

I have so much information on the newest products (even products for men, my husband is brutally honest about something I have him try) and there’s so much good product out there that doesn’t cost La Meir prices! All women can now afford to take care of their skin, hair, and even use makeup that doesn’t make them look like a glowing orange without the step price tags but with how advertising is (especially online if you’re not using that $600 face cream then you might as well not use one at all, or the complete opposite this is more affordable than that cup of coffee you get every morning and aren’t you worth it, type advertising) it has everyone questioning now is the products I’m using actually doing harm or help. And if you are into the vegan, bunny certified products don’t think you have to spend next months rent for a high quality one that does more than that high end product, but if high end is what you want I also have used and have reviews for all of the newest high end products as well.
I just don’t know what platform I can give the blunt honest truth about products because I don’t represent any brands I either use my own money, some companies still remember me from the former modeling days and send me these products but they own my review and reword it (they sometimes change a negative into a positive and I have real issue with that so those companies I’ve cut ties with). I can take questions about any product, I can do a weekly product review anything is possible I just feel I have so much vital information and can save so much money for people who use any facial product, (including soaps, toners, serums) teeth whitening products, makeup products, and any type of hair product. I’ve had everything from 6ft extensions, thick hair, thin hair (after the extensions were removed) color treated hair, damaged hair, coarse and crinkly curly hair, straight hair, and any other type of hair in between. I feel my ethnicity helps me with a very large group of people considering I’m Armenian in Russian with a few others in between LOL. So I can get really dark in the summer and really fair in the winter. I’ve actually been asked if I was just about every race possible at times which of course caused me to switch what type of product (s) I use. So, I do feel I have information that can benefit a lot of people along with pro tips and money saving tips.
I’d just like a website or some type of resource to provide that information and if I could get paid from it (not looking to become the billionaire next door just a little extra cash for savings and online stock trading).
If you have any information or know of any company that is interested in what I have to offer I’d be internally grateful for the advice. I thought I was doing just that with one of these fake companies that never even send the product.. at least I already have all the products and always willing to try other products.
Not sure if I should leave my email or not so I’ll leave my shopping email account (the one listed above is my real email but I’d rather unless there’s an actual job/company interested ASAP to use my shopping email account for any correspondence. I probably check that account more anyway lol;)
Thank you for writing such an informative post. I actually found your site after going rounds with one of the fake accounts I was trying to find their host company and ran across this email which is very informative. I know I go into a little bit of a detailed question but I do this so I don’t have to do it 100x over a lot has been saved from the beginning of my interest in finding some company or website that is wanting the type of information I have. Oh, and I’ve also tried all those new hair styling tools I can tell you exactly what one is worth every penny and which one I wouldn’t take if given to me for free. And again considering that I’ve bought 99% of these items people can feel that I’m giving my 100% opinion and not getting paid by any one company to promote that line.
Thanks for any advice and sorry for the long read but it’s just easier to know everything to get me to the right place!!
email (s) are e[email protected] or [email protected] thanks again!!
Still, selling me on a program for several thousand dollars makes me really want to investigate first.
Interestingly, perhaps ironically, I happen to live in Baltimore- the home of Agora Financial. I think I will make a surprise visit there to see just what is up.
I also felt you did a great job of providing alternative solutions for people who need to make money from home. There are so many scams out there. When you combine that with the desperation of people who are strugglng financially, the stage is set for
the desperate to fall right into deep waters, be they warm or cold.
As a final comment, I would encourage people to do their own 'due diligence' and to make decisions calmly and never investing anything that they cannot afford to lose. There is a lot of volatility in this particular sector of things. The highs can be addictively thrilling but the lows can come in the blink of an eye and wash your investments away like someone whipping through white water rapids without a life jacket.
I, for one, will most assuredly be looking into the sites you recommended as legitimate.
Thanks so much for your critique of Agora and the Penny Stock market!
