4 Ways to Make Money Online

Making money online is both easy and difficult. Easy – because, once you get it right the money flows in; difficult – because getting it right is not easy and takes a long time. But if you are ready for the long haul, here are some methods you can engage in.

1. Middle man – Many companies nowadays need online tasks done for them. This includes article writing, posting, social bookmarking, website designing etc. Ideally they are looking for contractors to take the jobs on and deliver results. By being the middle man, you can make a lot of money. Do not try to make big margins off one job. Rather, look to make large sums out of the volume of work you do for multiple companies.

2. Service provider – If you can’t handle being the middle man, be the “end man”. You can be the person who writes the articles or designs the website. You stand to earn more per job than a middle man, but it is time intensive and therefore you are limited on the number of jobs you can do.

3. Affiliate marketing -This is where you set up you website and refer your visitors to other people’s products. Essentially you function as a salesman and make money on the commissions given by the owners of the product.

4. Sell your own product – This is more difficult to do, but the returns are great if your product can hold its own. Once you build up a good reputation, all it takes is a well worded ezine to keep the sales rolling in for your new products.
