Last ten jobs you just doing.old list of online jobs
This are top old ways of making money online just sitting online. trusted and mostproductive and have a high
yield in feauters
1. Offer your professional expertise in an online marketplace.These days, you can do more than just sell your old books via Amazon.com and your old Coach handbags via eBay—now you can sell your professional capabilities in a marketplace. No longer are you limited to looking for a permanent or contract job on Web 1.0 style job sites like Monster or CareerBuilder. The new breed of freelancing and project-oriented sites let companies needing help describe their projects. Then freelancers and small businesses offer bids or ideas or proposals from which those buyers can choose.
Elance.com covers everything from programming and writing to consulting and design, while RentACoder focuses on software, natch. If you’re a graphic designer, check out options like Design Outpost or LogoWorks–you don’t have to find the customers, they’ll come to you. Wannabe industry analysts might sign up for TechDirt’s Insight Community, a marketplace for ideas about technology marketing.
2. Sell photos on stock photography sites. If people regularly good over your Flickr pics, maybe you’re destined for photographic greatness or maybe just for a few extra dollars. It’s easier than ever to get your photos out in front of the public, which of course means a tremendous amount of competition, but also means it might be an convenient way for you to build up a secondary income stream. Where can you upload and market your photos? Try Fotolia.com,
Dreamstime.com,
Shutterstock.com, and
BigStockPhoto.com
3. Blog for pay. Despite the explosion of blogs, it’s hard to find good writers who can turn around a solidly-written post on an interesting topic quickly. GigaOM is always looking for bloggers with great content ideas and solid writing skills. How do you get noticed? Comment and link to blogging network sites. Write blog posts that are polished and not overly personal (although showing some personality is a plus).
4. Or start your own blog network. If you like the business side of things–selling advertising, hiring and managing employees, attracting investors–and have the stomach to go up against the likes of Weblogs.com, Inc., GigaOmniMedia.com, b5media.com, maybe you should make an entire business out of blogs. Don’t make the mistake of thinking you’ll get a lot of time to write yourself though.
5. Provide service and support for open source software. Just because the software is free doesn’t mean you can’t make money on it–just ask Red Hat, a well-known distributor of Linux that sports a market cap of more than four billion dollars. As a solo web worker, you might not want to jump in and compete with big companies offering Linux support, but how about offering support for web content management systems like WordPress or Drupal? After getting comfortable with your own installation, you can pretty easily jump into helping other people set them up and configure them.
6. Online life coaching. Tutoring Who has time to go meet a personal coach at an office? And don’t the new generation of web workers need to be met by their coaches in the same way that they work: via email, IM, and VoIP? You could, of course, go through some life coaching certification program, but on the web, reputation is more important than credentials. I bet Tony Robbins isn’t certified as a life coach–and no one can argue with his success. For an example of someone building up their profile and business online as a coach, check out Pamela Slim of Ganas Consulting and the Escape from Cubicle Nation blog.
7. Virtually assist other web workers. Freelancers and small businesses desperately need help running their businesses, but they’re not about to hire a secretary to come sit in the family room and answer phone calls. As a virtual assistant, you might do anything from making travel reservations to handling expense reimbursements to paying bills to arranging for a dog sitter. And you do it all from your own home office, interacting with your clients online and by phone. You can make $20 and up an hour doing this sort of work, depending on your expertise.
8. Build services atop Amazon Web Services. Elastic computing on AWS is so cool… and so incredibly primitive right now. Did you know that you can’t even count on your virtual hard drive on EC2 to store your data permanently? That’s why people are making money right now by offering services on top of AWS. Make it easier for people to use Amazon’s scalability web infrastructure like Enomaly has with elasticlive, a scalable web hosting platform built on AWS.
9. Write reviews for pay or perks. If you blog for any length of time on a particular topic–parenting, mobile phones, or PCs, for example–you will likely be approached to do book or product reviews. You can get free stuff this way, but are you selling your soul? Is there any such thing as a free laptop? These are decisions you’ll have to make for yourself, because no one agrees upon what ethical rules apply to bloggers. Even less do people agree on services like PayPerPost that pay you to write reviews on your blog. Check out disclosure rules closely and see whether such a gig would meet your own personal standards or not.
10. Become a virtual gold farmer. A half million Chinese now earn income by acquiring and selling World of Warcraft gold to gamers in other countries. If you’re not a young person living in China, this probably isn’t a viable option for you. But what’s intriguing about it is the opportunity to make real money working in a virtual economy. People are making real-world money in Second Life too.

TRUSTED WAYS OF EARNING ONLINE
There are many different ways to earn money from home. Some are legitimate and some are just straight up scams. If you are searching for legitimate ways to earn some income online, then rest assured that you have come to the right place.
I’ve done my experimenting and research over the course of years and have compiled a list of 20+ different scam-free ways to make money on the Internet. You will find a brief description of the method and additional resources which includes more detailed information about how to earn money with that specific method.
With that being said, let’s get right into the methods that will allow you to earn money from home legitimately.
Earn Money Completing Online Surveys
1.You can earn money by simply giving your opinion
There are many different market research companies and websites that will pay users to give their opinion on various different things.
The best thing about it is that it is a free opportunity. You don’t have to pay anything to join these sites. Join legitimate survey websites, complete surveys, and make money. It’s pretty much that simple.
2.Earn Money With GPT Sites
GPT sites, also known as get paid to sites, allow people to join for free and earn money doing various things. You can get paid to fill out offers, complete small surveys, sign up to free websites, shop, watch videos, and a lot more.
These sites also have other fun ways you can increase your earnings. You can participate in contests for cash prizes, gift cards, and products. You can also earn extra money by referring other members, playing games, and doing small tasks related to the particular website.
3.Earn Money Blogging
There are many different ways to earn money from blogging. Posting paid reviews or sponsored blog posts, serving third party ads, and promoting affiliate offers are just a few of the many ways you can make money from a blog.
The basic steps include creating a blog, putting up content, building traffic to the blog, and then monetizing it. If done correctly, you can make a decent income from blogging. However, it will take some hard work, patience, and learning.
If you have a particular passion for something, whether it's a hobby or an obsession, and you have something to say about it, blogging could be a profitable way to pour out your endless stream of thought. The key here, as with many other services on the Internet, is in selling advertising.
After starting up a personal blog, many writers sign up for ad services like Google AdSense, which post those familiar sponsored links you often see at the top and on the sides of Web sites. The more times your blog readers click on those ads, the more money you'll make through the ad service. This works fine if you're a casual blogger, and you may make some extra spending money. But if the blog is consistently interesting, well-written and really takes off, you may be approached by companies who want to reach your fan base with graphical advertising around your blog. Some of the more successful blogs, like I Can Has Cheezburger? and Boing Boing, have become pop-culture phenomena, and their creators have been able to quit their day jobs and blog full time because of the money they make from advertisers.
4.Earn Money Writing Online
There are countless ways to earn money writing online. Making money by writing is one of the best ways to earn money fairly quickly. It’s is free and it doesn’t involve much skill. There are many online opportunities out there for people who can write and lots of money to be made.
5.Earn Money With Affiliate Marketing
This is one of my favorite ways to make money online and for several good reasons. Affiliate marketing basically involves marketing other peoples products as an affiliate and earning commissions. There is a lot more involved but that is my basic explanation of what it is.
If you go about affiliate marketing right, you could really earn a great income online. It isn’t the easiest way to earn money online but I would definitely say its one of the best ways to earn an income online. This method can be done for free as well although if you really want to succeed with it, you will most likely need to spend some money.
6.Earn Money With CPA Marketing
CPA marketing is like another form of affiliate marketing. I will say that there is a really good earning potential marketing CPA offers. Basically, what it involves is marketing CPA (Cost Per Action) offers as an affiliate.
CPA offers are a bit different as you get paid per action that the advertiser is paying for. You could get paid per trial sign up, email or zip submit, download, cell phone subscription, quote request, and more. On average, you can make anywhere from $1-$40+ per action.
Marketing CPA offers can be done for free as well. Although you will need some affiliate marketing knowledge, this can be a simple way to earn good money online.
7.Earn Money Selling Photos Online
Did you know that you can upload your photos to websites and get paid every time your photo is used? If you are a photographer or have skills to take some nice photos, you can upload your photos to certain websites (usually stock websites) and earn money each time your photo is downloaded or purchased.
There are also other ways to earn money online if you are photographer and want to sell your photos or photography services.
8.Earn Money Uploading Files OnlineDo you have a bunch of files on your computer that others may find helpful? Do you have access to a bunch of files that you can share with others? If so, you can make some money online by uploading and sharing your files with others.
9.Earn Money Selling Your Stuff/Merchandise Online
I think everyone knows by now that you can sell your merchandise online and make money. Ebay is one of the most popular websites that allow people to sell their stuff online. It doesn’t end there though because there are several ways to sell stuff online to make money.
10.Earn Money Flipping Websites
A lot of people build or buy websites and blogs, increase its value, and then sell them off for a big profit. This is what you could consider as website flipping or blog flipping. This particular method does involve a little investment of time and money but the profit can make up for the investments and more if done correctly.
Based on luck, strategy and business savvy, domain name flipping can be one of the more lucrative ways to earn a living online. The term comes from the real estate trick that involves buying old, undervalued houses, fixing them up to make them more attractive and modern-looking and selling them for a much higher prices.
In this case, the old and outdated place is not a house, but rather a domain name -- the main address for a Web page. With a little bit of searching, dedicated domain flippers locate unused, poorly maintained Web sites that have generic and recognizable identifiers and buy them. They usually pay a few hundred or even a few thousand dollars, but after extensive updates that make the site more business- and user-friendly, the domain name can fetch several times more than it was originally worth. The domain bird-cage.com, for instance, was bought for a mere $1,800 in 2005 -- after a redesign two years later, the site was sold for $173,000 to a bird cage vendor
11.Earn Money Selling Ebooks Online
There are quite a few ways to make money selling ebooks online. You can create your very own ebook, buy rights to other ebook and sell them yourself, or promote them as an affiliate. In any case, you will be able to make a decent income online if you use the right strategies.
12.Earn Money Doing Data Entry
Data entry is one of those opportunities that a lot of people stay away from because they are known to be scams. However, there are legitimate data entry jobs out there. Not all of them are scams. If you can find legitimate data entry jobs, you could find yourself making some extra free money online every month.
13.Earn Money Offering Gigs
Earn money online offering gigs on Fiverr. It’s a great free way to make some extra money online. Find something you can offer for $5 and set up a gig on Fiverr. Whenever someone orders your gig and you complete it, you will get paid. This is a great opportunity for anyone.

SEO Reviewing
Search engine optimization (SEO) is a growing area for Internet-based employment. SEO is a means of improving the results from a search engine so that they represent the closest matches and most reliable resources for the user's desired results.
As a contract SEO reviewer, working through a company like Leapforce, you can aid in this optimization. You start each evaluation task by judging a user's intent based on the key word combinations provided and your own knowledge of popular culture in the user's locale. Then, you use a set of given guidelines to evaluate how particular search results match that user's intent.
SEO reviewing can offer a steady income from home, but there are some risks. First, an SEO reviewer has to run reliable antivirus software and have a good, strong defense against malware. That's because viewing certain Web sites during evaluation tasks could introduce malware to the computer. Second, an SEO reviewer must be willing to view potentially offensive material, such as pornography. As a reviewer, you may be asked to check whether a given site contains malware or pornography, so you're putting your computer at risk as part of the job description.

There are free websites where you can sign up and get paid to either read emails (PTR) or click and view advertisements (PTC). The earning potential is a bit lower compared to other methods but this is one of the easiest ways to earn free money online. Suitable for people from all countries.
24 Selling Stuff on eBay
Most people today are familiar with the concept: You have things you don't necessarily need but others are willing to buy, and you can auction off the items on eBay or other online auction sites. Simply gather your goods, create a seller's profile and start selling.
It sounds simple, but it takes some practice to sell successfully. Creating persuasive and legitimate product pages for the goods you're selling will help get buyers interested. It's also important to set reasonable minimum bids to ensure that people will buy. And remember to deliver the kind of customer service that will garner positive feedback ratings and to communicate with buyers to let them know you're reliable. The more positive feedback you receive, the more people will be willing to do business with you. And that, of course, means more money.
26. Designing and Selling T-shirts logos
A you walk around most high school and college campuses, you're likely to come into contact with lots of words. But it won't be material from textbooks or term papers -- those are probably in backpacks or sitting unfinished at home. Instead, they're the simple phrases or logos -- most of which are ironic or amusing -- printed on the T-shirts on the backs of the students.
Usually, the more unique and offbeat the design is, the more desirable the T-shirt is. The growth of the Internet has made it possible for vendors to sell T-shirts all over the world. In fact, sites like CafePress.com and SpreadShirt.com allow you to set up your own store, create your own designs and sell them yourself. If you can create your own shirt design with a clever catchphrase or come up with your own unique statement and people like it, you can start making money.
28. Freelancing
Freelancing is similar in some ways to blogging. For one thing, you get to work from your own home or office most of the time. But there are a few important distinctions. First, if you're thinking about freelance writing, chances are you need to have more experience than the average blogger. Many freelance writing positions cover specialized topics for online publications and many require expert knowledge on the subject. However, if you're passionate about things like travel or food and know how to write, a freelancing job can provide you with a good income.
Along a similar line, you might also consider self-publishing your original work rather than working on contract-driven tasks. Self-publishing offers many of the same benefits as freelance writing. This additional step is risky, though, because it requires marketing work to your target audience so they'll buy your work.
Writing's not the only way to make money freelancing, of course -- anyone with graphic design or programming experience can find contract jobs that pay well and provide challenging work, too.
29.Financial Services
Financial services include accounting, tax preparation, bookkeeping and payroll processing. Today, you can accomplish most of these services using specialized software. For businesses, this means hiring fewer people to handle these tasks. For individuals, it means doing it on their own and hiring a consultant online when necessary.
These cost-saving opportunities for consumers mean money-making opportunities for you. You can create a Web site on your own or work with an existing Web-based services group. Then, you can correspond with clients through that Web site and via e-mail.
If you want to offer financial services over the Internet, first make sure you're either trained or experienced in the services you're planning to provide. For example, you're probably not an expert on preparing taxes for a small family farm unless you've done so before or had training in farm-related accounting. In addition, make sure you know whether you'll need government licenses to offer certain services, and refrain from misrepresenting yourself or working illegally to avoid getting sued for fraud.
30. Customer Service
Many businesses support their products through a customer service department. In many cases, this means people who answer phone calls from customers. A growing number of businesses also offer customer service electronically through their Web sites and by e-mail.
At a Web site, customer service might include live chat sales and support. To use this, a customer clicks a link requesting to chat with a live person, and a customer service representative answers the request and speaks with the customer through a chat window. For e-mail customer service, the customer fills out a form at the Web site or sends e-mail directly to a particular address.
Since the live chat and e-mail depends only on having a reliable Internet connection and Web browser, businesses have looked increasingly at hiring home-based workers for these services. As a result, customer service contracting firms like Talk2Rep cover e-mail and live chat support in addition to inbound and outbound phone calls. While the pay rate is often minimal or commission-based, the growing demand for online customer service makes it a reliable source of income if you have a knack for it.
31: Tutoring
With each passing year, there seems to be increasing pressure for elementary, middle and high school students to make good grades and prepare for a path to higher education. For some kids, this means getting help from a tutor to bridge any gaps in understanding in certain subjects.
Since more families often have reliable high-speed Internet connections at home, too, Internet-based tutoring services are growing. When you apply for these jobs, you usually have to take tests in your selected subject areas and submit to background checks. Though you could start your own online tutoring service, sites like Tutor.com have already done the legwork for you in terms of marketing. These sites match thousands of kids with tutors each week.
While many Internet-based jobs offer flexible hours or multiple shifts, tutoring services might require you to be online during a specific block of time or reward you for doing so. This encourages tutors to be available during the heaviest demand. For example, when Tutor.com has more tutors than tutoring requests, it places tutors on a waitlist and gives preference to tutors who work at least five of hours per week in the 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. EST time slot Sunday through Thursday
32 Selling Handmade Goods
Earlier, we considered using sites like eBay to sell stuff that you don't need. You can also use Web sites to sell your original creations. Certain Web sites like Etsy.com and ArtFire.com are dedicated to matching the artists who create things by hand with the customers who appreciate and want to purchase their handmade goods.
If you're like most people, the word handmade probably brings to mind some traditional crafts like knitting, crochet, needlework, quilting, painting and sculpting. Handmade items don't stop there, though. You can also market woodworking, glasswork, metalwork and anything else you're capable of building at home. Be sure to focus on projects that you're already good at or that you have a passion for so you don't burn out producing each new item.
Existing Web sites like we mentioned before usually let you set up your own shop for free or for a very small fee for each item you list there. If you have a small home-based operation, this could be a better deal than setting up your own site. For many people, hosting and managing an entire Web site might be a full-time job by itself.
The biggest challenge for selling homemade goods is making back the cost of what you put into it. Not only do you want to be reimbursed for materials, but you also want to be paid proportional to the time you put into it. Keep track of your sales and purchases carefully in the first few months, and make adjustments as necessary to maximize your profit.
Now that you have our 33 ideas, click on over to the next page for even more information on ways to make money on the Internet.
I’ve done my experimenting and research over the course of years and have compiled a list of 20+ different scam-free ways to make money on the Internet. You will find a brief description of the method and additional resources which includes more detailed information about how to earn money with that specific method.
With that being said, let’s get right into the methods that will allow you to earn money from home legitimately.
Earn Money Completing Online Surveys
1.You can earn money by simply giving your opinion
There are many different market research companies and websites that will pay users to give their opinion on various different things.
The best thing about it is that it is a free opportunity. You don’t have to pay anything to join these sites. Join legitimate survey websites, complete surveys, and make money. It’s pretty much that simple.
2.Earn Money With GPT Sites
GPT sites, also known as get paid to sites, allow people to join for free and earn money doing various things. You can get paid to fill out offers, complete small surveys, sign up to free websites, shop, watch videos, and a lot more.
These sites also have other fun ways you can increase your earnings. You can participate in contests for cash prizes, gift cards, and products. You can also earn extra money by referring other members, playing games, and doing small tasks related to the particular website.
3.Earn Money Blogging
There are many different ways to earn money from blogging. Posting paid reviews or sponsored blog posts, serving third party ads, and promoting affiliate offers are just a few of the many ways you can make money from a blog.
The basic steps include creating a blog, putting up content, building traffic to the blog, and then monetizing it. If done correctly, you can make a decent income from blogging. However, it will take some hard work, patience, and learning.
If you have a particular passion for something, whether it's a hobby or an obsession, and you have something to say about it, blogging could be a profitable way to pour out your endless stream of thought. The key here, as with many other services on the Internet, is in selling advertising.
After starting up a personal blog, many writers sign up for ad services like Google AdSense, which post those familiar sponsored links you often see at the top and on the sides of Web sites. The more times your blog readers click on those ads, the more money you'll make through the ad service. This works fine if you're a casual blogger, and you may make some extra spending money. But if the blog is consistently interesting, well-written and really takes off, you may be approached by companies who want to reach your fan base with graphical advertising around your blog. Some of the more successful blogs, like I Can Has Cheezburger? and Boing Boing, have become pop-culture phenomena, and their creators have been able to quit their day jobs and blog full time because of the money they make from advertisers.
4.Earn Money Writing Online
There are countless ways to earn money writing online. Making money by writing is one of the best ways to earn money fairly quickly. It’s is free and it doesn’t involve much skill. There are many online opportunities out there for people who can write and lots of money to be made.
5.Earn Money With Affiliate Marketing
This is one of my favorite ways to make money online and for several good reasons. Affiliate marketing basically involves marketing other peoples products as an affiliate and earning commissions. There is a lot more involved but that is my basic explanation of what it is.
If you go about affiliate marketing right, you could really earn a great income online. It isn’t the easiest way to earn money online but I would definitely say its one of the best ways to earn an income online. This method can be done for free as well although if you really want to succeed with it, you will most likely need to spend some money.
6.Earn Money With CPA Marketing
CPA marketing is like another form of affiliate marketing. I will say that there is a really good earning potential marketing CPA offers. Basically, what it involves is marketing CPA (Cost Per Action) offers as an affiliate.
CPA offers are a bit different as you get paid per action that the advertiser is paying for. You could get paid per trial sign up, email or zip submit, download, cell phone subscription, quote request, and more. On average, you can make anywhere from $1-$40+ per action.
Marketing CPA offers can be done for free as well. Although you will need some affiliate marketing knowledge, this can be a simple way to earn good money online.
7.Earn Money Selling Photos Online
Did you know that you can upload your photos to websites and get paid every time your photo is used? If you are a photographer or have skills to take some nice photos, you can upload your photos to certain websites (usually stock websites) and earn money each time your photo is downloaded or purchased.
There are also other ways to earn money online if you are photographer and want to sell your photos or photography services.
8.Earn Money Uploading Files OnlineDo you have a bunch of files on your computer that others may find helpful? Do you have access to a bunch of files that you can share with others? If so, you can make some money online by uploading and sharing your files with others.
9.Earn Money Selling Your Stuff/Merchandise Online
I think everyone knows by now that you can sell your merchandise online and make money. Ebay is one of the most popular websites that allow people to sell their stuff online. It doesn’t end there though because there are several ways to sell stuff online to make money.
10.Earn Money Flipping Websites
A lot of people build or buy websites and blogs, increase its value, and then sell them off for a big profit. This is what you could consider as website flipping or blog flipping. This particular method does involve a little investment of time and money but the profit can make up for the investments and more if done correctly.
Based on luck, strategy and business savvy, domain name flipping can be one of the more lucrative ways to earn a living online. The term comes from the real estate trick that involves buying old, undervalued houses, fixing them up to make them more attractive and modern-looking and selling them for a much higher prices.
In this case, the old and outdated place is not a house, but rather a domain name -- the main address for a Web page. With a little bit of searching, dedicated domain flippers locate unused, poorly maintained Web sites that have generic and recognizable identifiers and buy them. They usually pay a few hundred or even a few thousand dollars, but after extensive updates that make the site more business- and user-friendly, the domain name can fetch several times more than it was originally worth. The domain bird-cage.com, for instance, was bought for a mere $1,800 in 2005 -- after a redesign two years later, the site was sold for $173,000 to a bird cage vendor
11.Earn Money Selling Ebooks Online
There are quite a few ways to make money selling ebooks online. You can create your very own ebook, buy rights to other ebook and sell them yourself, or promote them as an affiliate. In any case, you will be able to make a decent income online if you use the right strategies.
12.Earn Money Doing Data Entry
Data entry is one of those opportunities that a lot of people stay away from because they are known to be scams. However, there are legitimate data entry jobs out there. Not all of them are scams. If you can find legitimate data entry jobs, you could find yourself making some extra free money online every month.
13.Earn Money Offering Gigs
Earn money online offering gigs on Fiverr. It’s a great free way to make some extra money online. Find something you can offer for $5 and set up a gig on Fiverr. Whenever someone orders your gig and you complete it, you will get paid. This is a great opportunity for anyone.
