I’ve been using several ways to make extra money on the Internet for the last several years. It has really helped my family out plus I’ve been able to stay at home with my kids.

Here are 9 quick ways to make extra money on the Internet

1. Squiddo and Hubpages - Both of these places offer profit sharing on affiliate commissions. You basically will be creating a web page and once published, you receive a portion of the commissions that your page generates. I’ll be hones with you and tell you that it takes a lot of pages to generate a decent amount of money. But if you don’t have anything to do, you can make 5 or more pages a day. Affiliate commissions come from Adsense, eBay and Amazon.
2. Project Payday – This is an online business where you either sign up for an offer and get into it free or buy into it outright. Then you “go green” on offers from people with trial offers from Companies. Project Payday has great training video’s and help. Sign up was very easy for me and it took me about a day to get the hang of it. I will warn you though, the work is very tedious. Not hard and you won’t get rich quick, but if you need to make money fast on the Internet, this is one way of doing it. The first full day I used Project Payday, I made about $50 in 5 hours. The next day I only “worked” about 3 hours and made $30. I found the work too boring though. But I made a lot of friends on the forums while doing it and many are still using Project Payday to make extra money in their spare time. Click here to find out more and sign up for free.
3. AssociatedContent.Com - This is a website where you’ll sign up for free and write articles or produce video’s. People looking for content post what subjects they want an article, or articles for and you can claim that job and be paid for it. Typically articles will pay $4 to $10, sometimes more depending on the subject matter and the length.
4. iStockPhoto.Com – If you’re good with a camera, check into iStockPhoto. Here you can post your pictures and publishers can search through the website using keywords. When a publisher buys one of your pictures, you get a percentage. The nice thing about iStockPhoto is that the same picture is sold over and over so you keep making quick money on the same pictures!
5. DigitalPoint Forums – DigitalPoint forums has a marketplace where you can advertise your skills. There are people there looking for web designers, coders, article writers, etc. You may also want to check out SitePoint. These are very large forums and I know several people who make their entire income from advertising their skills on these two forums.
6. eBay – Let’s face it. Ebay has provided many people a way to make money at home who would otherwise not have a means of income. You can cruise Garage sales looking for bargains to sell on eBay. I did this for several months and would make between $600 and $1000 per month. But beware, make sure the stuff you buy will actually sell on ebay! You don’t want to fill your Garage up with a bunch of stuff that won’t sell. There are even people who go to Sam’s and Cosco and buy in bulk then resell on eBay and make quick money on the Internet.
7. Craigslist – When we were moving, we watched Craigslist for free moving boxes. The problem as we found out later, was that other people watch Craigslist also and snatch up the moving boxes..and resell them! There is a whole industry of people who do nothing other than watch Craigslist for the free stuff or the low cost stuff and then resell it either on ebay or through classifieds and turn a quick profit online.
8. Start a local blog – Bloggers are making big profits on the Internet by blogging about events and news in their community. You don’t have to live in a Metro area to be a profitable blogger. Some of the rural areas have bloggers keeping people posted on what is going on. The way you get paid is by accepting advertising from local businesses. If you’ve got any traffic at all, you can write reviews for local businesses and put banner advertising up on your blog.
9. Become an Internet Consultant – Are you good at finding things on the Internet? Do you know your way around the Information Super Highway? If so, there are people out there willing to pay you for your time and help. I know people who help FSBO’s find places on the Internet to advertise their homes. Others teach basic Internet skills to others for a fee. Many of these people advertise their skills on Craigslist and in the classfieds of local papers. Find what you’re good at and see if there is a market for it. I bet there is!

None of the methods above are likely to make you a millionaire, however people all over the country are making extra money on the internet with each method listed. The thing to keep remembering is that you have to put time and effort into each of these techniques to make them work. It’s not easy, in fact you could call them your part time job.

The above 9 methods of quick ways to make extra money on the Internet won’t make you rich. But hopefully it will put enough in your pocket to help you pay some bills or maybe a nice night on the town.
