Read on 6 steps to make money online. In this ongoing economic downturn it is important information to have — and beyond it.
1. Sell Your Photos
“Stock photography websites are massive photo libraries, covering almost every imaginable topic you might imagine,” International Living advises. Photographers can upload their photographs to any of the large websites. Then, the magazine publishers, designers, or any organization with a website can download your photos. To check out photo sites include Shutterstock, Photoshelter and Getty Images.
2. Become a Copywriter
“Copywriting is a mega-industry, ripe with potential,” according to Foreign Living. And the demand for people who can feed it with fresh marketing messages and one of the best advantages of the lifestyle of the freelance copywriter is that you can get paid in U.S. dollars. And then, live almost anywhere in the world.
3. Teach English
“If you’re a native English speaker, you may not know it but you already have the number one qualification you need for a nice and flexible income. In addition, it can give you a steady paycheck from anywhere in the world,” says International Living. Some international resources are GoOverseas.com, TeachAway (teach English online to Chinese students), iTutorGroup (teach English online to Taiwanese students), and English Hunt (teach English on the phone to adults students in Korea).
4. Set up a Content and Web Development Business
Through online resources, you can give these services to everyone, which make creating beautiful websites a snap. Some services include WordPress, Joomla and Weebly.
5. Try Drop-shipping
This is a marketing approach where the retailer simply doesn’t have a physical inventory. Instead of it, when a customer places an order, you purchase the item from a third party. And then, they send it to the customer directly.
6. Type for Cash
Transcription is simple: Listen to and type an audio file via headphones. “As a transcriber your pay is directly linked to how quickly you type,” International Living advises.
According to International Living, “Transcription workers are paid by the hour of the recording (length of the audio file), rather than by the hour of work. The time spent on a transcript is affected by the quality of the recording, the background noise, the speaker accent and the speed at which people speak.”
