Step 1. – Perseverance!

Perseverance is so important! I make about $2500. a month (and getting larger each month) on the Internet. Not quiet enough for my lifestyle, but nice just the same. It's pretty easy, and it doesn't take all that long to get a SMALL income stream started. It does take some effort and time to build up. If you jump in with both feet today, you will be surprised how easy it will be to maintain, and grow your business!

Step 2. – What do you have to offer?

If you have a specialty of any sort like planning vacations, weddings, playing guitar, or even playing Guitar Hero 3, carpentry, kid stuff, arts, crafts, photography, designer, programmer. You get my drift? Anything, you have a specialty for, or have always wanted to do. You can start getting paid for your expertise. Even if all you can offer is time, and knowledge, there are opportunities out there for you to make a lot of money!

Step 3. – Teaching/Tutoring

Search on [Online tutoring] and you'll uncover dozens of sites in this booming corner of the Internet. Many accept applications for online tutors, with variable rates and topic areas. Two to consider are tutor.com and ehomeworkhelp.com

Step 4. – Surveys

One of the popular ways to make money is taking Surveys. I heard that CashCrate is one of the better companies for this. Be careful of membership fees before you get started in any of these companies. They strike me as legitimate, but I have to say that I don't have any first-hand experience with it. So just always be cautious.

Step 5. - Photography

There are many opportunities in this field. But there are more Photographers trying to sell their photos since the digital cameras have come into play. At istockphoto.com you can upload still photos or videos for sale, and receive a small royalty payment every time someone makes use of your content.

Step 6. - Jury Duty

Here's an odd one. Online “Jury Duty” Lawyers are looking for feedback on how a case will play out before a jury use online e-jury sites to find out input of the average citizens that show up on juries. Yes, you do get paid. The fee for complex cases can run around $50, but $20 is more typical. To check this out go to onlineverdict.com, or trialpractice.com. I've heard from a couple of users that a couple of these sites has no real actual work to offer, so use these services with eyes wide open!

Step 7. – Listening to Music

Say What? At slicethepie.com, you can get paid for listening to music. Listen to upcoming artists, and review their music. The more reviews you write -- and the better you are at spotting new talent -- the more money you can make! Were you good at picking the next American Idol? This might be for you.

Step 8. – Website Review

You can get paid for reviewing websites. Usertesting.com pays $10 per website review. It's not open-ended...you have to be selected to test, based on your demographic profile.
