How To Make More Money

How To Make More Money

1.     Get Paid For Testing Websites

Many big companies are looking for feedback about the usability of their website. This is where Usertesting.com comes in.  You sign up for free and then answer questions about a particular website, explaining what is good or bad, confusing or clear, etc. and then you get paid.

You have to be accepted into the program and must be 18+, but the payouts are pretty good!  Their current payouts are $10-$15 per test and the tests normally take about 20 minutes.

2.    Ebates

This one it is more of a money saver, but they will send you a check every few months if you use them.

Basically it works like this:

You visit Ebates.com, then click a link to your favorite online store (they have over 1200 stores like Target, Kohls, Walmart, etc) and make your purchase like normal.

They will then will be paid a referral fee by that retailer and will share the earnings with you. They pay you a percentage (1%-25%) of the purchase price back. It is completely free to and they even give you a free $5 gift card for signing up. 

3.    Rent Out Your Home On AirBNB

AirBNB is a site that allows you to rent out your home to other people who may just want to visit where you live.

You can rent it out as little or as much as you want and can list it to rent by the night, week, or month. They offer a $1,000,000 guarantee to protect you from any kind of property damage that was caused by renters.

4.    Buy And Sell Cars For Profit

If you love cars and aren’t afraid to haggle, you could start a car flipping biz. We have a friend of the family who has done this for years. He scours the classified listings for deals, lands a good deal and then drives the car while trying to sell it for a couple grand more.

Sometimes he sells them quickly, sometimes it takes a little longer, but he gets to drives lots of cars (which he loves) and makes a nice side income as well.

5.    Get Paid To Shop

There is a cool app (Android and iPhone) called IBOTTA that pays you for your everyday shopping that you do.  It is completely free and pretty easy to use.

6.    Get Paid To Tweet

Did you know that advertisers will pay you to send out tweets about their products?

As you could imagine the bigger your audience the more you will get paid, but you can find out more here – SponsoredTweets.com.

7.    Build Websites For Others

I can’t tell you how many people have asked me to build them a website since I started this one a couple years ago. I am not seeking the work and people are requesting it, so if you do a little legwork and pursue small business owners, there is a lot of work available. Teens might be great for this, because they would be able to work for less than some higher end website developers, which would put them in the price range that it seems many small businesses are looking to spend. Here is a great course to help you get started.

8.    Tutor Or Give Lessons

Are you great at guitar, math, or kicking a field goal?

Why not advertise your skills to those a few years younger than you?

Many parents are willing to pay a teenager to tutor their child in an area that needs development. Post an ad to Craigslist for free and see what happens!

9.    Blogging

Two years ago I wasn’t sure if there was money to be made blogging, but I have since found it to work out nicely. It isn’t something that will provide much income quickly, but if you stick at it, it can.

Since I have been a full-time blogger for many years now, I wrote extensively about how to make money from a blog for those who are interested in this type of thing.

10. Social Marketing Consultant

Many companies are looking for qualified candidates who know the ins and outs of Myspace, Facebook, and Twitter to help them with their social marketing efforts. Head over to a job site and search for “social media marketing”.
