How to get Rich Online

Ahh, how to get rich online!

How to get Rich Online

Let's be honest, we all want to be rich. I, personally, have been earning a full time income online for the past 9 years. 7 of those years have been strictly selling at Ebay, and the past few years I have been trying to find other ways to become rich, or make money online.

If you have not been following my blogs, for legitimate ways to make money online, I have found that Ebay, Ehow and Zazzle seem to be the best sites for me. (Update- 9/2011 I still make money at Ebay and Zazzle but writers like myself were bought out by Ehow. I now make most of my income blogging!)

In order to get rich online, you must have a plan.
Do I think I will become rich on any of the three sites I mentioned? Well, there is a possibility, but I try to treat each of those as jobs, and faithfully work hard at each. At any of them alone you can absolutely earn a full time income.

Getting rich online takes work
If you find a "Get rich quick" idea online, you may as well forget it, if it sounds to good to be true, it is. Plain and simple. I like to not only work hard, but set monthly goals.

In order to get rich online, try new things.
Most of the sites I make money at take work, but there is no start up costs or fees ever. I recently started blogging again. I originally tried blogging and did not pick a "Niche" topic, and really made just change. I rethought my idea, researched tons and started a few Niche Blogs.

My extra chances at getting rich online
I decided to think of my blogs as "Lottery Tickets." In other words, instead of buying a lottery ticket, I would write a blog, a few times a week. I understand I have other ways to make money, and am still focusing on those, but my blog may make some pocket change, or I may hit the lottery with it and become rich. In my blogs I have Adsense ads, and I also signed up at Amazon and Clickbank. Basically I place those ads in my blog as well. So, I have three ways to make money on my blog. What motivates me now on my blog is knowing I may become rich online or I may have some days when I just when $20 from "my lottery." (Update 9/2011. I now only use Google Adsense on my blogs and last months earnings were $2400.)

The best way to get rich online is to work hard. If you know sites or have ideas that work well, try them. Be serious and treat your online business seriously, like a job. Even if you do not end up becoming rich, you can absolutely make a nice living online!

I am still not rich by any means, but I absolutely make great full time income. My businesses continue to grow.  Last month, as I mentioned I made $2400 blogging, $75 at Zazzle and $800 at Ebay. Although Mahalo is no longer residual, I still earn money there working every day which usually comes out to about $500 a month. Not rich, but since I am not even the technical bread winner in my family, not too bad!

How to Make Money on Ebay

How to Make Money on Ebay

How to Make Money on Ebay




You may want to sell on Ebay part time, or you may want to earn a full time income on Ebay.

This article will give you the tools and show you how to make as much money as you would like at Ebay!



Prior to signing up at Ebay, sign up for free at Paypal. This is where you will be recieving your money from buyers at Ebay.



Sign up for free at Ebay. They will ask for your email address at Paypal and this way your accounts will be set up and you are ready to sell.



Start selling on Ebay! Go through your house and sell unwanted items first. If you want to turn this into a full time business you may shop in bulk or buy wholesale items and resell them on Ebay for a profit, but better than that option is to start going to garage sales every week. Buy things cheap and resell them on Ebay. Garage sales are wonderful, you can often find a .50 cent item and turn it around and sell it on Ebay for $30 or more! There is a little bit of a learning curve to figure out what sells good on Ebay and what does not. But for .50 cents, you cant go wrong. Worst case scenario is you resell it for a few bucks and you are still out ahead!

Beginner Guide: Make Money Working from Home

Beginner Guide: Make money Working from Home

I will rank the sites that I feel are the best for a beginner (or beyond) to make money at working from home, but first let me share something.

Do not fall victim to online scams. Do not pay money upfront, there are too many legitimate sites that really pay. If you have to give money in the beginning or anytime, move on.

To make money working from home will take work, obviously the more time you put into your business, the better, especially in the beginning.

On to my Beginner guide list of great places to make money working from home.

#1 Ebay
You can start at Ebay by selling things you have in your home. Feel free to read my earlier blog of how to turn Ebay into a full time business.

#2 Ehow
Write at Ehow and earn residual income- That just means what you write today, you will still be making money on a year from now. Perfect for the beginner or established writer. You can make great money here, top earners are making $2000 and up, a month. Update, Ehow is no longer taking writers. Demand Studios owned Ehow and is a great place to write at and make money!

#3 Zazzle
Turn your work or art into T-shirts, Posters, invitations etc. Place them in the marketplace there and watch your money come in!

Those three sites are perfect for the beginner and in my experience have shown to be the most profitable. Working from home myself for many years, I personally do not put all "My Eggs" in one basket. I love having money come in from all over the place every month. Update, I have spent maybe 5 hours on Zazzle in the past 8 months and I am earning between $50 and $150 a month. Love it, great place to make money working from home and perfect for a beginner or anyone!

And on with my Beginner Guide: Make Money Working from Home list!

#4 LULU
Write a book or E-book at Lulu! You write and publish your work here for free, then it is up in the marketplace. Lulu gets a percentage of every sale! And so do you. Once your book is written, you just sit back and wait for sales and then you have time to try the other sites I mention, as you are raking in the money!

#5 Blog
I personally do not make tons of money blogging, but I am just getting started. Blogger is a very popular place to write and make money. Update. I am now earning great money from home blogging here. Last month my earnings were at $2400.

#6 and #7 go along with #5 Clickbank & Amazon
On your blog you will be making money from Adsense, and you can open an account with Clickbank & Amazon. Place the ads on your blog and make MORE money!! Update, I now only use Google Adsense. These did not seem to pay off.

I would like to take a moment here to add a few thoughts. My #8, 9 and 10 are places to make money, but I feel the above mentioned sites are better. In my experience, my top three are HEADS above the rest as the best places to make money! Can you make money at the sites I am about to mention, yes. But I would try the first 3 FIRST.

Back to Beginner Guide: Make Money Working from Home, the list.

#8 Fiverr
This is a silly place that asks "What would you do for $5" Write what you would do, and make money!

#9
Associated Content
You can write here and make money. They pay up front and residual. The upfront payment is "OK" but the residual money is not the greatest.

#10 Mahalo
Answer questions at Mahalo and make money. Update, Mahalo has changed quite a bit. They now only accept applications for writers. It is a great legitimate place to work at. I still earn money here every month!

How to Earn Money Online

The Big Question! If you are starting out and have no idea how to earn money online, this article will be a great stepping stone.

As I have been earning a full time income from home for about the past 9 years, 7 of those years I strictly made money from Ebay. With all the "talk" about people making 6 figures online, I wanted to know more. Unfortunately, I did not have any friends or family earning money online so I had to try to figure it out myself.

I started with a blog, here actually, I have not even removed it. I wrote and wrote and made pocket change. I did not even earn $1. To this day blogging does not rank that high on my list of great places to earn money online, BUT I figured out why I was only earning change. I picked a wide topic, everything under the sun, pretty much and that was the biggest mistake. To make money with a Blog you must chose ONE topic, which is called a "Niche Blog." Write often and be patient. Choose good keywords and include them often in your writings. Update, 9/2011 Funny how things change. Last month blogging I made $2400. Blogging is now my main source of income. The key? Be patient! Write tons and keep writing.

The best place to earn money online? If you follow my blog you will notice I have written in greater detail about Ebay and how to earn money there. But I still do rank Ebay as #1 in places to earn money online.

Ranking #2 in how to make make money online, for me, is EHOW. You write what you know and earn money. It is residual income, so what you write today is still earning you money 6 months from now. I have been at Ehow for about 10 months and from September to January I did not write at all (due to my Ebay business being so busy) I was still making between $55 to $125 each of those months. My highest paying article there has earned me $36 dollars so far! SO, the 20 minutes of writing was well worth it.Update 9/2011 I did great here but they recently had a buyout and you can no longer earn money online here. Their father company Demand Studios is always taking apps and is legit!

Ranking #3 in how to make money online, for me, is Zazzle! You simply turn your art or photos into T-shirts, posters, Etc! You earn money on each sale. The nice thing is once you design a shirt or item, again, it is there forever and you will earn money anytime that item is bought.
Click Here for Zazzle Update! I now earn bewteen $50 and over $100 month here without adding anything new. Love it!

Both Ehow and zazzle are free to sign up (You never have to PAY a cent), and perfect for the beginner.

Another site that deserves mentioning on how to earn money online is:
Lulu- write and publish a book or Ebook for free!

Fun Way to Make Money Online

Fun Way to make Money Online

This one is kind of "Out There!"

**Update, I wrote this Blog this morning, and now, same day have my first $5 sale from Fiverr! It really may be worth looking into as a fun way to make money online!!**

The site is called FIVERR, http://www.fiverr.com/ and you post what YOU would do for $5! It is free to sign up and try your luck at coming with as many ideas as you can, of what you would do for $5!

Ideas are endless. Just for fun I posted a handful of things and did not make any sales yet (I signed up about a week ago) but I did recieve three email questions on my posts.

I do not to expect to get rich here, by any means. But on my quest to become rich, hehe, atleast to the point where my husband can quit his job, I am trying many many different ways to make money online.

My theory is if it is free to sign up, chances are I will try it. Every idea will not end up making you tons of money, I understand that. But the only way to find out what sites pay really good, is to try many.

If you have not been following my posts here, I am sharing what sites pay good, which do not and everything in between.

So far, I do make my full time income at Ebay. If you read my older posts I share how you can turn your Ebay business into a full time career, and not by purchasing wholesale.

I have been selling on Ebay for 9 years and wanted to expand and see what all the hype was about making money online writing etc.

As Ebay takes number one spot on my list, Ehow takes spot number two. Again, feel free to read my posts on Ehow. It is a site you write "How to" articles and get paid. Ehow stands far ahead of any other site, in my mind. They pay the best and it is perfect for the beginner.

Third on my list is Zazzle. Again feel free to see my Zazzle posts.

Fiverr does not rank anywhere for me yet, and I may never make a sale. But it is easy and fun. It takes a minute to post an idea, and who knows, you may come up with something that several people purchase a week and make an extra $80 a month. So I found this fun way to make money worth mentioning.

Blogging For the Beginner, Making Money

If you are not a beginner, no need to read this post.

Although I have been selling on Ebay for 9 years, Blogging and making other sources of income online, are still new to me. I realize there is so much to still learn.

I was remembering wanting to make money online, but had no idea of where to start- FOREVER. I really had no idea. I did start blogging, but had it all wrong. You can see my first Blog here and it includes everything from crafting to UFC fighting and everything in between. I know now that was WRONG. You hear people say write a Niche Blog. What that means is pick a topic. One topic. For example the title if my blog here is Make Money on the Internet legitimately. Each of my blogging articles is about ways to make money online.

Blogging For the Beginner, Making Money Where to start blogging?
Blogger is a great place for the beginner, and not just my opinion, I have read it over and over again.

Once you have figured out your blog title or Niche, sign up and begin writing.

How you make money Blogging, for the beginner:
In a nutshell, you get paid from the ads on your blog and people clicking on them. Blogger makes it easy to have AdSense ads on your blog. Then, here at blogger you can click "Layout" and place more ads on your Blog easily.

Take it a step farther. Sign up at Clickbank & Amazon and you can put ads on your blog from each of them. If people buy things from Amazon or Clickbank, you earn a percentage. Update 9/2011 I did not want to edit this article Blogging For the Beginner, Making Money too much. I like to see where I started and it is great for you to see, as well. I now only use Google Adsense on my blogs. And PS! It took many years but my earnings are way up to higher than I hoped for. When I wrote Blogging For the Beginner, Making Money, I had the right ideas. Be patient and just keep writing. I now earned $2400 last month!

Earnings at Zazzle

So, the big question, how much money can you Earn at Zazzle?

Earnings at Zazzle:
Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond status
Monthly Earnings Average $100 $1,000 $5,000 $10,000 $25,000

This is the Zazzle chart, so if you see a seller with a Gold Pro seller status, they are earning $5000 a month.

I have personally read over and over again, the earnings are limitless, and the more items you have on Zazzle the more sales you will be making.

My earnings this month are at $21.(Update 9/2011 I am now bringing in anywhere between $50 to over $100 a month. I pretty much have atleast one sale a day).

Not only can you earn money by selling items you created, but by referring people to their site, and a purchase is made you earn money.

My Zazzle Associate link (and feel free to check out my store here) to earn money is Click here

To find your Associate Link to earn money, go to your Zazzle account and click ASSOCIATE. They will give you your link. You can post it anywhere, in your Blog, emails's etc!

I really do rank Zazzle high on my List as an online site that pays well. It does not require much time or work and it is fun. Again, be patient as first, as earnings just trickle in, in the begining. But once you have about 1000 items listed, you soon will be making a sale a day!!

 Earnings at Zazzle Update: 9/2011
I showed my current Zazzle earnings above, with that being said, I must share that I rarely have time to design anything new. At this pint, I know what designs or items sell best, for me. The cool part about Zazzle is that you do not need to add new designs or products for earnings to keep growing, love that. As I mentioned, design as much as you can in the beginning and soon you will be able to tell which of your items do best. This way when you do get time to design new, you have an idea what not to waste time on.

Make Money with unwanted item at Craigs List

If you have not tried Craigs List yet, you are missing out.

Craigs List is a site you can post your items for sale, FREE OF CHARGE!

As you know I sell on Ebay, but when things do not sell on Ebay, I list them on Craigs List.

How it works: You list locally, and if you have a camera and can post a good picture all the better!!
List your price and phone number, if you are priced right you will get a call and someone will come out and purchase it that day!!

If you are not ready to sell on Ebay, go through your house and make quick money by selling unwanted items on Craigs list!!
