We all have months where we are strapped for cash. But there are ways that you can make money online, from the comfort of your own home, that don’t involve breaking any morals or laws. And these methods can boost your income with, potentially, minimal effort needed. So check them out!

Engage in Market Research

Some companies need feedback on products or services and will pay you to do so. By becoming part of an online focus group, you will not just be earning money, but also aiding a new product or helping others too. Focusgroup.com is a great place to first check out.

Blogging

By blogging, you can make money in a variety of ways. This can be through affiliate marketing or by advertising. You may also get asked to post a sponsored post, in which you could get paid or given a product in return. Also, it’s how I make my living and make around $10k a month. 🙂

Sell Stock Photos

Grab your camera, take some pictures, and upload them to a website where you will get a commission for each usage. These can help you gain a passive, side income without having to do any extra work.

Selling

Whether you are selling handmade items, second-hand items, or even online content, selling is another way that you can make money online. There are various websites you could use for each or, if you have one, you could list the items on your own website. These can help you get a bit of extra cash. Good sites for this would be Shopify, Etsy, and Ebay.

Advertise Services

Whether you are a writer, coder, or creator, you could advertise your services online. By working remotely, you can give an employer or customer something they want or need, from the comfort of your own home. You will also be able to pick and choose which to take, so long as they fit into your existing schedule.

A great site to look into for this is Upwork.com.

Tutoring

If you have a niche or subject you excel in, you could get paid to become an online tutor. This may see you delivering course content via email or video conferencing, and can involve pupils across the globe. 

Whether you want a side job or a little bit of extra cash, there is an opportunity for everyone online. Remember to do your research and check the legitimacy of companies, as well as to include any extra income on your tax return.
