Are you working at home? Right now I am working at home and I plan to work from home for a really long time. I know you’re busy– but I want to give you five of my favorite ways to earn money using the internet.  So, take a break and enjoy a cup of coffee with me.

 

1. Ad posting. 

This is one of the easiest ways I have ever earned money from home. You can earn anywhere from 25 cents to two dollars per ad post. Of course some places pay more but you have to find them. Great places to look for ad posting gigs are on Work at Home forums and Craigslist. But be aware of scams and go with your gut feeling. Check out this old post and learn how to find legitimate work at Craigslist.

2. Merchant Circle

Merchant Circle is my main income while working from home. News is that they recently closed their registration for new writers.  I suggest you jump on board whenever they reopen their registration. One of my favorite parts about this gig is that you get a bonus at certain writing production levels. For example: if you write over $100 of articles a week; you get a 10$ bonus.

 

3. mTurk

mTurk is one of my favorite “go-to-sites” when I have nothing else to do. Believe it or not, some writing websites post their workload on mTurk. Keep an eye out for places like Englishmajor.com. You can take a test and then sign up to do hits for them. One bad thing about gigs like this is that they do not last long. The tasks quickly run out.

 

4. TryMyUI

Extra cash is extra cash. Can I get an AMEN? Whenever you are working from home an extra 10 dollars is blissful. There are a whole fistful of usability sites that allow you to take tests for them. Be sure to read the guidelines closely so you can get paid!

 

5. Titling

I would love to know more about the ad posting too, it sounds very interesting.

Ad posting is basically posting ads for a client wherever they may choose, which is usually Craigslist. They typically will not pay for any ghosted or flagged posts or until you post them, which can kind of be scary. I was recently posting ads for a person and I have yet to see any type of payment. But, it is super easy and does take research to locate a good position, but it’s worth it! Thanks Jess for sharing some of your favorite ways to make money. I would have to say writing is the easiest to me, although finding the time lately has been a bit of a challenge!

I had never really thought about ad posting for cash. I used to check out MTurk every once in a while, but most of the offers were so low. May check it out again. Thanks!

Fiverr.com is awesome. I have not made a whole lot of money on there, but I have made hundreds in a few months.

I have been posting ads but I don’t earn as you are saying. Overall, you have also mentioned some other ways to earn. Nice post.
