One of the first ways I started to make money online was through doing tests on a survey site, like uTest. It really was a great way to start to see some extra cash come in. So I would definitely check it out!

Become a Seller on Ebay

Whether they’re items you find in garage sales, flea markets, or your own home, you can get started with selling on eBay. Now, this one not only gives you extra cash but also makes more space in your house

Sell Your Skills Online

Yes, freelancing is a great way to make money from home. Sites like Fiverr or Upwork will allow you to create a profile and apply to jobs that will allow you to write for others, edit, and many other tasks.

Sell Your Pictures Online

If you love taking good photos and editing them, then you can start selling them on sites like Shutterstock.com. This site will pay you 25 cents each time someone downloads your pictures. Also, Shutterstock has a policy that if you earn $500, then you will be eligible to get 33% of the money from each download. And on $3,000 earnings, you will get 36% and on $10,000 you will get to 38%. 

Make Money by Doing a Good Deed

You can donate blood plasma to people who are in need. Donating blood plasma can help save lives and put extra cash in your pocket, so it’s a win-win!

Start Investing

One of the best things you can do for your future is to start investing. And a great place to start would be Motif which allows you to get started for a very affordable price.


There are plenty of ways to make money outside of your regular 9-5 job. So give some of these a try and see how it goes!
