Fast Money Making Ideas

By Patrick Day

Money's tight, times are hard. We've all been there at one time or another. Ends just don't meet. You need a quick infusion of cash. Here are some easy money making ideas to put a few extra dollars in you pocket.

Take inventory of all your stuff. Put aside each item that you can part with. Look for stuff that you can replace later when your finances pick up but aren't doing you any good right now. You need to be pretty severe with your choices. Beg or borrow a digital camera and start taking pictures of each individual item and list them for sale on eBay. You want a really large assortment of things to sell, because they won't all sell, you'll more than likely have some duds.

You can also offer this as a service for others in your area. Post flyers around town noting how successful your auctions have been, include some photographs and your email address/contact info. You can either list each product for a fee or take a percentage of the selling price.

I've said it on other pages here but it bears repeating. Write. Simple, well written 350 word articles written about a popular subject can pull in $5+ each at Associated Content. It's possible to crank out ten to fifteen of them in a day. Those articles can then be recycled as blog posts or website pages.

If you can afford it, buy a domain name and hosting for your site. That way, if your site does start making money, you can offer it for sale. Those free sites belong to the owner of the site (although I have heard of squidoo lenses being 'transferred' for a fee).

Sign up with clickbank.com and promote their products as an affiliate. If you can't afford your own site, use free sites like blogger and squidoo. Build those blogs or pages with your previously sold articles (remember to keep the rights to your articles when you sell them) and set up AdSense on them if its allowed by the site owners' terms of service.

Re-write your articles with a new introduction and conclusion. Reword the middle paragraphs a bit and submit them to free article directories with links back to your free blogs where you have your affiliate links and advertising. Use social bookmarking and networking to create more links and traffic.

With a little thought, and some work, you can create money online with these and other resources. Investigate thoroughly any claims that you can earn hundreds or thousands in a few days after 'joining' a program. It's best to keep your hand on your wallet while you check those offers out.
