How to start making money online

Every internet newbie want to make online-money fast, but s/he doesn’t know how to start when they are getting learned to make money online.
Firstly, I continue I’d like you to know that the tips in this article doesn’t guarantee results and the result you will get depends on who you are, what previous knowledge you have and what you’re ready to give to ensure your success. Once you’ve understood this you can read on to learn some quick ways to make money online fast.
(1) Know Your Skills by Understanding Yourself Better
All great business in the world are based on having something to offer and I’d like you to know that in the online world you won’t get any results if you don’t have anything to offer.
The first step to starting make money online is having a better understanding of you. Take a look at yourself, try to know what you know how to do best, try to know what you can easily do without having any problems and try to know what you have a lot of experiences on. Normally it doesn’t matter what field this skill of yours is, just ensure you understand it and do your best to perfect it.
(2) Research Your Market
Suppose, you’ve understood and know yourself better and now that you know what you have to offer to people it is now time to take yourself a step further.
It doesn’t matter how great or cool a business is. Its success lies in its understanding of its market. Your skills won’t just make you money, your market will and in order to effectively leverage your market to your success you need to have a better idea of who your market is.
When you’ve understood your market start profiling a list of some of the top people in your market who you know is truly in need of your service. As for example, if you’re a designer your market will be big companies with unprofessional websites and if you’re a social media consultant your market will be big companies with poor social marketing efforts.
Once it comes to knowing your market you should also know that it isn’t just about people who are in need of your services but it is mostly about people who are willing to pay you for your services – I mean it is all about people who have the budget and are willing to spend to ensure they get the best.
(3) Get in Touch With Your Market
We have touched two very important aspects which are known and understanding yourself better and researching your market. Knowing your market alone won’t help you get results. You need to go further step by establishing a contact with your market. It can be done in so many ways depending on the skills you have to offer, but if you’re a freelancer who has a service to offer the best thing to do will be to profile a list of some of the top people in your field and start contacting them as to why they need your service. You need to get a lot of clients on the long run and that will be a lot of more bucks in your pocket.
There are a lot of things anybody can do, especially with basic computer skills, so I sat down for writing a list of activities we could do to make some money right now.
Many of these tips will certainly not make you rich, while others have some great potential. The goal of this list is to inspire you to act and do something right now. It’s better to start with something small than to not start at all. Hope to enjoy!


1.                Sell used stuff on eBay. Chances are that you have lot of stuff you no longer use in your home. Why not making a list of all the stuff you have in excess and then selling it on eBay?


2.                Compile online surveys. Online surveys are a quick way to make some money.  Keep in mind that most websites only works for US residents.


3.                Put AdSense on your website. AdSense is the fastest way to make money from your website. And if you don’t have a website, you can always start one.


4.                Post your resume. Wherever you are a writer, blogger, designer, programmer, etc, there are many websites like elance.com where you can find some part time work. Give it a try and post your resume.


5.                Write for ehow.com. Ehow is a how to articles directory. You can write as many articles as you want and receive money when someone visits your articles and clicks the ads.


6.                Teach English via skype. If you are a native speaker, you may find someone who’s willing to pay you for simply having some conversation over skype. Just do a quick search on google to get an idea.


7.                Post your photos on istockphoto. Stock photo websites like istockphoto can bring you a lot of money. Some people are even making a high 6 figures income from it.


8.                Search for free adwords/yahoo/msn coupons and use them to make money through affiliate marketing. I recently received an adwords coupon from google, so the first thing I did was to run a campaign and link to an affiliate website with my referral id. Quick money, zero risk.


9.                Coach or teach others. Do a list of your top skills (hint: you have many) and teach them to other people. If you are good at something, there’s always someone else that wants to learn it, so take the opportunity to make some money and to learn something new at the same time.


10.            Submit your design to sites like 99designs.com or zooppa.com. If you are a good designer or video maker, the ways you can make money online are infinite. Using websites like 99designs orzooppa you can submit your work and earn some real money.


11.            Sell your own product. You can follow the step by step process described in the four hour work week and start your online business in no time.



12.            If you know a foreign language, offer to do translations. There are many companies who would benefit from a native speaker for doing some translations. Often you can get a serious work from this, so do some research to see what’s available.


13.            Make money with clickbank.com. Create an account at clickbank.com and find a genuine product to promote through your website, or build a dedicated website if you are good with SEO (you can always learn).


14.            Offer computer assistance. You may be surprised by how many people don’t know how to do basic stuff like setting up an email account or uploading a video on youtube. Offer them your help for a small fee.


15.            Build websites for small companies. You don’t have to be a programmer to make websites. There are excellent content managers and templates you can buy for making small websites. You can also outsource the complete process of course.


16.            Start a blog. If you have something to say, start a blog. It might take a while before you start to see some serious money, but they’ll eventually come if you do things right.


17.            Sell a blog. Of course you can also sell a blog. Blogs are sold every day and many people make and sell blogs as a part of their day job.


18.            Rewrite ads. If your grammar is good, take a look at ebay ads and if you notice one that sucks, offer its owner a rewrite for a 1% or 2% fee. Only target big items of course.


19.            Rent your car. If you don’t use your car every day, you could rent it by online.


20.            Buy and sell tickets. If your country laws permit it, you can buy tickets in advance and then resell them on ebay once they are sold out.


21.            Forex trading. I’m not a forex expert but you may want to take a look at it if you want to make some extra dollars per month trading currencies.


22.            Tutoring. If you are good at math, english or something else, you can tutor kids during weekends or summers online.


23.            Market research. Many market research agencies are paying people for conducting online market research. This is also a great way to brainstorm new business ideas.


24.            Do a part time job. A part time job is often the easiest way for making some extra money online.
