I am about to reveal several ways of making money online, with only a computer and an Internet connection. I have personally done this myself and it has worked for me.
1) Selling online
You could be selling brand new products you got for cheap or second hand items you want to get rid of. The reality is that there are so many opportunities out there to get an extra income or a full-time income if you are serious and involved.
Plenty of platforms are quite successful: The two platforms I would recommend to start selling on are Ebay and Amazon. It is easy to setup an account, free of charge and your items will get plenty of exposure and potential buyers.
You do not need to wait months to be rewarded, once you sell an item, you get the money immediately*.
*Exceptions apply for new seller accounts on Amazon & Ebay
2) Blogging:
Blogging will take more time to allow you to make an income but could bring a decent and constant passive income. The best platforms to start are Wordpress, Blogger and YouTube. They are all free to use and are at the moment the most popular tools.
You might probably need to wait 6 months to receive some money. The money will come mostly from ads. Before monetising your Blog or YouTube account, make sure to build a solid fan base or followers as some people will back off as they see ads on your blog.
To create a successful blog, quality content should be your number one concern. It will help you attract more visitors and build a sustainable business.
3) Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate Marketing is selling a product that is not yours and being paid a commission for it by advertising someone else's goods on your blog or channel. Once your blog has got many subscribers, you can take advantage to sell any products or even upsell.
Blogging or affiliate marketing are a great addition to your online store business.
4) Renting your spare room
If you have unused spare space/room in your flat or house, you could benefit from it. Why not renting it ? You could rent your room for a short or long period of time depending on your availability.
The perfect website for this is www.airbnb.co.uk (or .com). You can advertise your spare room onto Airbnb website, and getting paid directly to your account 24 hours after your guests checked in. Airbnb will get a commission for the service but it is a very profitable business.
Prior to doing this, if you are renting your house/flat, you want to make sure with your landlord that you are allowed to sub-rent.
5) Coaching or consulting
Even if you have a full-time permanent job, you could use your free time in doing something you are good at. There must be an area where you feel super confident or you have an extensive knowledge about. Why not using it for your own advantage ?
People will be ready to pay to be coached by an expert.
Having your own little side business could keep you busy and allow you to earn extra cash.
Being self-employed is probably the best thing that has ever happened to me. Whether you want to involve yourself full-time or part-time, I will always fully support you.
Why working for someone else's dreams ? Isn't it better to work for your own dreams to come true ?
A 9 to 5 lifestyle has never been suitable for me, this is why I am now sharing with you my own vision and experience of what could be your life if you quit your common life for something else more challenging.
It is obviously not suitable for everybody, but I guess if you are here, it means that you are looking for a change and I am here to help you get there.
