How Can I Make Money With My Computer?

By Mark Goodwin

What do you do with your computer? If you are like most people you use it to send emails to friends and family members, perhaps read the news, look up favorite recipes, or watch a video or two. While most use the computer for things "such as these", others are using their computer to make some serious dollars. We would like to introduce to you five ways that people are making money online:

IDEA #1) Why Not Write For Blogs. Writing for established blogs is one of the easiest ways to make money online. You don't even need to have an established website, and you can make between $5 and $100 for every article you write. The amount of money you will make depends upon things like popularity, Alexa Ranking, RSS Subscribers count, Page Rank, etc. Some of the blogs that you should check out are:

a) ReviewMe b) SponsoredReviews c) Blogsvertise d) Payperpost e) Smorty f) Linkworth

IDEA #2) You can fill out Online Web Surveys. While some of these web sites are SCAMS, there are legitimate and profitable sites out there. You just need to do your homework to find out which is which. Be sure to check out their payment history, and see what other users are giving them in terms of comments and reviews. Here's one potential candidate: CashCrate.com Check them out!

IDEA #3) Why not write original content for other web sites? Everyone knows "something", and you might have some special and unique knowledge that others will pay for. You'll never know unless you try. Is there a certain hobby or technical skill that you are known for? If you are interested in making money in this way, you should look at:

1) About.com 2) eHow.com 3) Helium.com 4) Bukisa.com 5) AssociatedContent.com

IDEA #4) Working at Freelance Jobs. If you can do computer programming, or design web sites, write technical info, draw, etc. you can leverage these skills to make some extra money online. People are looking for these skills in the online marketplace today...and they will pay you good money for it. If this interests you, check out:

IDEA #5) Affiliate Sales. What are affiliate sales you ask? It's when you help someone sell a product via your web site. In a nutshell, there are companies out there who will pay you to send customers their way. Which companies? You can get a list of them from Commission Junction, Amazon, LinkShare, or ClickBank. Here's how easy it is. You put an ad from one of these companies on your web site. When one of the people who comes to your web site clicks on their ad, and purchases an item from their web site, you get a percentage of the sale. Amazon will give you between 5-15%, while Clickbank will give you 50-75%. Definitely a way to go if you have an established web site that has a lot of traffic.
