Free Fast Ways To Make Money
There are a number of methods you can use to make money online quickly and easily. Some of them cost money, some of them take a lot of time, but some of them are both fast and easy, and those are what I'll be discussing here.
In order to qualify for my list, these methods must cost absolutely NOTHING to start, and must be able to make you money in two weeks or less. Some of them will make money even faster than this, but I wanted to include all possibilities.
Now, you cannot do these methods effectively if you have no real skills. In order to make money online, you really do need to have at least one measurable talent in the following areas:
* You need to be able to write effectively, with good spelling and grammar(Yes you CAN use MS Word to help...). It doesn't have to be perfect, but it does need to be adequate.
OR
* You need to have decent graphics design abilities. And I'm not talking about using Paint Shop Pro with Blade Pro and making horrible beveled edges or something! If you're decent and are creative, you can make money.
Using either of these two skills, you can start to make decent money relatively quickly. Writing is probably the easiest skill to make money with, simply because there are SO many ways to make money quickly with it. Seriously! Now you know why English class was so important in high school! (Do you wish you'd skipped class less often now?) :)
Make Money Writing Articles
Submitting articles to paid content sites can be lucrative.
For both of these places, you'll simply write articles of around 600 words and submit them. Then you'll get paid by their specific payment method. If you're a decent writer, and you learn to write quickly, you can make great money this way!
Associated Content pays an average of about $4 to $5 each for good quality articles. They pay more for exclusive articles that you don't sell or use anywhere else, and less if you want to sell the same article somewhere else. Once you get good at writing quickly, you can produce a minimum of two articles per hour, thus earning $8 to $10 per hour.
I recommend choosing the non-exclusive route. I've found that they pay very little more for exclusive than non-exclusive, and when you sell an article to them on a non-exclusive basis, you can sell it again elsewhere. Which brings me to the next place you can sell your articles.
Keep in mind that Associated Content may occasionally reject an article altogether. Although this has been very rare in my experience, it may occasionally happen. Don't feel bad. It probably just means that they don't believe there will be a very big demand for this article. The more popular the topic you're writing about is, the more likely it is to be accepted and the more money you are likely to be paid for it. Check out their "Calls for Content" section where you find out the topics that you need to write about and start making money right away.
Constant Content
Another place to get paid for writing articles.
Remember, if you submit an article to Associated Content, you cannot submit it as exclusive to Constant Content.
Two More Ways To Make Money Writing
Not as lucrative as Associated Content or Constant Content, but worth looking into.
Day Tipper pays $3 per "tip" submitted. They take tips on everything from makeup, to relationship advice, to tips on cooking and cleaning! Best of all, they only need to be two to four sentences to be accepted if the tip is good enough! They only seem to accept around 20% to 25% of tips submitted, but since they can be so short, it's some easy extra cash. This is great for when you're not feeling creative enough to write an entire article!
Mom Product Reviews pays $5 for every accepted product review. They want reviews of products for pregnancy, babies, toddlers, children, teenagers, and anything of interest specifically to mothers. These articles do not have to be very long, as long as they are useful. 400-500 words is probably plenty. They pay by PayPal within 7 days of accepting your article.
