Are you one of the many people who are trying to find a way to make some extra cash online? There are SO many scams out there, it's not even funny. I'm a college student with no time to spend hours at a job that I may not even like and has looked at a ton of different things to earn some pocket money.
I've tried a vast amount of different websites in trying to find legitimate ways to make some money from home. They all ask for a fee or they just don't have anything available for you. I've looked up paid surveys, paid emails, mystery shopping, blogging, among others. Here's a summary of what I've found:
- If you really like teaching, try tutoring online. Some good websites are Tutor.com (although it's completely full with tutors so good luck there) and GlobalScholar.com. Just make sure you are willing to give the time to answer questions for homework and tutoring sessions (and make sure you know a lot about the subject!) Personally, I'm not much on teaching.
- The one thing I liked when looking up stuff was freelance writing. I first got onto Helium.com, but they take a long time to publish your article and are somewhat strict about the guidelines about writing them. However, if you're really into writing, give it a try. There's a good amount of money available for excellent writers.
- The only place I've earned any sort of money so far is on Triond. It's not much, but I know it'll accumulate eventually (I hope!) and it's for people like me who aren't professional writers! You can publish whatever you want: text documents on anything with no specified length, pictures, even audio and video! The only requirement is that it's your own stuff. They publish it on relevant websites for you. The way you earn money is by the number of people that view it. So, when you publish something, make sure to promote it! It's really easy. With enough publishings, I'm sure you'll be making some dollars eventually
