Companies, websites, and magazines are always looking for stock images. You can sell your own photos for a commission or resell others’ works. 

You can also sell the same photo over again, if you’d like. The best part about selling your own creations on Etsy? It can change your life and the lives of others!

If you’re creative and enjoy creating visual content, selling your own products on Etsy can help you make money online. You can sell digital downloads of your artwork, which your clients can print and frame. 

You’ll never have to worry about packaging or shipping. Once your digital products sell for a reasonable price, you can email them to clients directly. Then, they can instantly download them and start earning. 

The possibilities are endless, and you don’t have to be an expert to be successful.

Renting a room online

Renting a room online

The easiest way to rent a room on the Internet is to advertise it with rooms. But this can be tricky. People usually reserve extra bedrooms for themselves or close friends. 

While it may be tempting, there are many people who would be uncomfortable renting out their rooms to strangers. Regardless of the difficulty, it’s always good to have extra space for renters.

Here are some tips for beginners.

One of the easiest ways to list your spare rooms is to use a platform like Airbnb. This online platform allows you to rent out your space for a daily or weekly rate. 

If you don’t have a home, you can also post a room on Neighbor and Airbnb. The services are free to use, and many hosts earn hundreds of dollars per month this way.

Freelance writing

Freelance writing

There are many different ways to earn cash by writing online, but one of the easiest is by freelancing. Freelance writing continues to grow in popularity, as more companies outsource content creation to third-party writers. 

In addition to contacting clients directly, freelance writers can also connect with clients through platforms like Iwriter, Fiverr or Upwork. 

One such freelance writer is Georgia Austin, who started her freelance writing career on Fiverr. The more you practice, the faster you’ll be able to write.

The first step in earning money by freelancing is to establish a writing portfolio. While there is no right way to go about this, you can start by searching online for potential clients and pitching them via cold email. 

Once you’ve developed your writing portfolio, you can start pitching to prospective clients. You can also look for clients on your own by cold emailing them and hoping they’ll contact you.

If you’re a beginner, you can also consider a course to help you improve your skills and make your pitches more appealing to potential clients. 

These courses can teach you how to write effectively and present your work in an appealing way. You’ll be able to make money online as a freelance writer in just a few weeks. 

If you’re serious about this career, make sure you have a strong grasp of English language and a positive attitude. You’ll soon be able to enjoy a full time job and make a full time income.

If you’re an author who’s just starting out in freelance writing, you may be wondering whether or not you belong in the world of freelance writing. 

However, the best freelance writers are those who weave a story that engages readers and captures their attention. 

To be successful in freelance writing, you must learn how to harness the power of your muse and command your creativity. 

You’ll need to think of a storyline, book title, and characters, and come up with headlines and call to actions that catch the reader’s attention.

Peer-to-peer lending

Peer-to-peer lending upstart

Peer-to-peer lending is an alternative way for individuals to raise capital and receive a monthly income. 

These lending platforms connect lenders and borrowers and require fixed monthly payments to be made. Each investor is allocated a certain percentage of the loan amount. 

In most cases, the lender will charge an origination fee, which is usually 8 percent of the loan amount. Other fees may be imposed if the borrower does not repay the loan in full.

A peer-to-peer lending website works like a marketplace, connecting lenders and borrowers. They match borrowers with lenders, who evaluate loan applications. 

In general, the eligibility requirements for this type of lending are more relaxed than for traditional lenders. 

Those with a credit score below 600 are typically eligible, but you should still consider the pros and cons of this type of lending. 

It’s worth noting that the interest rate on P2P lending is higher than those on traditional savings accounts.

Most peer-to-peer lending platforms have hundreds of loans to choose from. You can either choose which loans to invest in manually or let the platform choose for you. 

Upstart uses artificial intelligence (AI/ML) to assess the risk of individual borrowers and make recommendations. It also allows users to set up a self-directed IRA for tax purposes. 

The downsides of peer to peer lending are often hidden, but they’re worth it for those who are new to the process.

Using a peer to peer lending app can be a convenient way to monitor your earnings and investments. You can even make withdrawals of your profits, if you wish. 

There are also several peer to peer lending sites on the Internet. 

The first step is to choose one of these platforms and apply for an account. You’ll then use your debit card to pay in the money. 

Once approved, you’ll need to set up the loan terms and interest rate with the borrower. Once you’re approved, you can list the loan on the website, where investors will fund the money and you’ll get the interest.

Crowdsourcing

Crowdsourcing

If you’re a beginner, crowdsourcing can be a lucrative opportunity. This new marketing tool allows consumers to interact with brands and help them make decisions. 

Typical crowdsourced campaigns will ask people to provide opinions and recommendations on a product, service, or idea. 

In return, the brand can use the feedback to refine the product. However, it’s not just the brands that benefit from crowdsourcing. 

Anyone can become a freelancer and take on various projects through crowdsourcing websites like Kickstarter, Patreon, Indiegogo, Crowd Supply, Fundable, SeedInvest, Mightycause and GoFundMe.

Tutoring

Tutoring and make money online

Teaching online is a great way to supplement your income and future career goals. You can work when and where you want. 

You can even start your own tutoring business, or work with an online provider. Online tutoring is an excellent way to make extra money and work alongside your regular job. 

However, if you don’t have teaching experience or the necessary skills, it might be hard to succeed. 

To earn extra income online, you should first find a reputable online tutoring company.

If you have a background in a particular subject, Facebook groups can be a great place to find tutoring clients. Join groups devoted to learning specific subjects, and spend time providing valuable insights and comments. 

After delivering value to your target audience, they are likely to approve promotional posts. Once they’ve seen your value and expertise, they’re more likely to be interested in hiring you to teach them.

Start by applying to websites such as TutorMe, which match struggling students with qualified teachers. TutorMe also accepts beginners who want to make money online, but you’ll need to be sure you have teaching experience. 

After you sign up, write down your qualifications and experience. Choose subjects you mastered while studying, and/or taught when you were a teacher. 

By applying to these platforms, you’ll be able to get students from all over the world, and you can teach from anywhere in the world.

Aside from helping struggling students, tutoring online is a lucrative full-time job that allows you to work from home and has many advantages. 

Online tutoring can be done in two different ways: synchronous or asynchronous. The former involves working at your own pace, while asynchronous requires students to submit their tasks before the deadline. 

The latter lets you contact the student whenever you have time.

 Asynchronous tutoring allows the student to ask questions, clarify any issues and receive feedback on their work.

Selling ebooks

Selling ebooks

As a beginner, selling ebooks might be an interesting way to start making money online. 

If you have the skills and inclination to write, you can also sell these books through Amazon’s Kindle Direct Publishing service. 

Moreover, if you’ve already created a website, you can sell your ebooks on your website. Then, you can sell other products on your website. 

There are also affiliate programs you can join.
