"Virtual-Reviews.com
was created with the intention of providing
prospective clients and browsers with the information,
programs, reviews, tips and resources needed to create a
profitable niche and/or income via some up-to-date home
based business opportunities. This site should be used
as a reference and resource in it's own right. Because
this field is currently circulating wealth online and is
generally quite fragmented, there is a growing
attraction for very ambiguous and deceiving sites that
offer misconceived, non-working and sometimes unethical
forms of methods to boost online income. This site is
composed for the purpose of helping you to understand
and make informed decisions on what programs to try and
what to avoid. Every review is honest and authentic,
with additions of other customer thoughts and opinions,
it should help you to decide which direction to go with
your money. You will also explore some very unique and
interesting thoughts on ways to make money online."
Ok, here’s my takedown from experience and research to
conclude very savvy and some ingenious little ways to
make relatively good money online. If you are going to
give it a go, I recommend picking ideas that you are
preferably familiar and or interested in. Remember over
90% of internet businesses fail because they haven’t a
clue about what they are doing. Do something different,
be yourself, think out of the ordinary and go where
no-one has ever dared to go before. Your imagination is
the limit.
1)
Advertise your independent skills
or professional services. Something you are
genuinely experienced with and preferably
good at. i.e: accounting services, web designing,
article writing, legal work/advice, proof reading,
sending emails, art work etc…I will be mentioning more
of this all throughout the myriad of creative money
making ideas. Just check out how many ordinary
freelancers make their living on
elance.
2)
Buy a website,
flip it, sell it – I know a self-employed guy, who buys
the cheapest house on the block, who fixes it up,
renovates and sells for a living. He would typically
bring in anywhere between $40K all the way upto $100K.
After fixing up each house, he’d move on to the next.
(Note: he pays no capital gains tax, because he claims
to be living in it…Tax Loopholes!). Successful websites
have big demand these days. A highly profitable venture
is website flipping. Buying cheap websites, redesigning
if required, but more importantly increasing website
traffic. By doing so, not only will you benefit from the
monthly income your website is pulling, you also
appreciate the value of your website. A good converting
website with relatively good traffic levels is a highly
valuable asset in demand! It’s quite exciting once you
get to grips with it. Now is a great time to build your
very own set of Virtual Real Estate. Just

3)
The above
on website flipping is very lucrative, among few
worthwhile opportunities within the modern internet era.
One smart suggestion if I may add, invest some time just
browsing through the genuine websites for sale that are
actually earning revenue. Not only will this give you an
idea of how websites earn money, but also provide you
with online website ideas that you can go on to venture
with. There are sellers that tell you every bit of
information about their business; monthly turnover and
profit, tax deductions, website visitors, keyword
analysis. This is stuff you won’t usually get from any
website owner. Before starting your own website
business, it’s wise to browse through sites for sale to
get a good feel for how websites operate and what
potential they have.
4)
Information sells
– if you’ve ever made a quick buck for some easy work
and reckon there’s more potential, why not sell this
information? “How I Made $2789.43 last week for two
hours work!” You’ll be surprised what a good sales
pitch can fork out.
5)
Affiliates on steroids?
Hey, don’t laugh, some guys who learn a thing or two
from a good online marketing ebook actually manage to
pull some decent commissions from promoting other
people’s products. Especially when a new product or
service is launched and there is relatively good demand,
by being amongst the first few to promote, you could
really make just about enough in a week to launch your
own information product on how you made a quick buck.
See how idea No.3 becomes more possible! Needless to
say, there are literally millions of products you can
source on affiliate networks such as
Commission Junction,
Clickbank,
Linkshare and other affiliate networks. Find good
products or services with little competition and promote
the hell out of them! Affiliate products can be great
fun and have great potential to make you money. If you
know how to bring in traffic to a website, you’re half
way there! I could write a bookshelf of info on this
because it’s now so diverse. So many lucrative
opportunities waiting to be discovered here…
6)
The internet
has opened up many
many freelance opportunities, expanding markets and
helping to build it into one of the largest economic
segments. Development for freelancing has been
especially high for website design, information
technology, software development and stuff like business
documentation.
Oh brother, where art
thou? Seriously, if you are capable of utilising the
webs potential, you can charge people for gathering
useful data and resources free from the internet. Your
own little
freelance data consulting or research business…
7)
Got your
own business ideas? Sell them! Yeah, just search
for the term ways to make money or business ideas in
Google trends. Loads of people want their own solid
business, but just haven’t got the faintest clue. Sell
your own ideas backed up with a bit of your independent
research and some background info. These can sell like
hot cakes from heaven! Though it may seem a bit
counter-intuitive to sell your own business ideas or
plans when you’re pretty much close to broke, it may be
the case that you just don’t have the time or money to
part with your ideas! Other people are willing to
invest, but just need to be headed in the right
direction. (It will be frustrating to see your ideas
harvesting millions in other people’s hands, don’t say I
never warned ya!)
8)
Do you
write good? If you can honestly write some appealing
content of any genre, you’re skills are
WANTED!! Believe me, website owners and others will
likely reimburse your efforts with good hard cash! There
are very experienced website marketers that are well
capable of promoting a site and bringing high traffic,
but completely suck at writing! These guys make a lot of
money from their website visitors. They can only sustain
high levels of traffic if they frequently update their
websites with good content. Your knowledge and writing
skills will be their saviour. No, you don’t need a Ph.D
in English! Just some comparatively reasonable writing
ability and more likely some interest in the genre where
your written work will be based. If you are pretty good
at writing about things that interest you, you will
quite likely create better prospects, as loyalty will
feed upon your passionate writing ability. Easier said
then done eh? Truthfully, it’s easier once you get
started. Put on that thinking hat and get the ball
rollin’. If that’s not enough, I made $75 on an article
that took me 20 minutes to write and it was my first
ever paid to write project!
9)
Put your
money where your mouse is! Good at playing games?
I’m sure there’s an online game we’re all good at or at
least can be. There are a number of sites where you can
earn cash prizes or wager in multiplayer games and
tournaments, as enjoyable as free online chess and pool
games. Having a little money riding on the outcome can
certainly keep the thrill pumping. All you need to get
started is find a popular website with contenders ready
to part with some money, register a paypal account and
you’re good to go. Minimum payouts can start from just
$5 and go up in hundreds. But isn’t that gambling? I
hear ya, but online gaming is still a new activity, so
in many countries around the world, the technology is
ahead of the laws. It depends how you look at it really.
Do you consider poker a game of chance or a game of
skill? Anyhow, though I’m not so big on gambling of any
kind, there’s bucket loads of cash on the table. Try
Foxbroker,
Gamedek,
King,
Worldwinner and search for some yourself.
10)
Speaking of games, try feast your eyes on the
revolutionary new trend in online gaming. More
specifically, multimedia online role playing games,
which are virtual simulated 3D games controlled by real
people all over world. With
SecondLife in particular, your imagination is
your world, and you can practically create whatever you
want in it. Build your house, business, explore
residents around you, and more importantly get involved
in the marketplace, where you can buy and sell stuff you
create within the vast economy. The Linden dollar can be
converted into real U.S dollars at the online exchanges.
11)
Say cheese!
Like
taking pictures? Well, sadly not everyone’s in
the league to compete for high paying agencies looking
for high quality, expensive, unique shots. But whilst
professionals are busy stocking photographs for the high
payout, wealthy companies, the smaller companies are
yelling for some attention, though with a smaller
budget. This is where you come in, along with your 3,
maybe 5 mega pixel camera. Sell some of the nice
photographs you have lying around on your computer or if
you’re willing to go out and take a few decent pics,
better still. There are a few good websites, that upload
your images and you get paid for every download.
Usually, committed photographers receive thousands of
downloads per month and with growing interest from the
internet communities, it’s yet to become bigger and more
robust. Check out
Shutterstock, I quite like this website. Fantastic
photographs!
12)
Become a freelance researcher.
Start off from an amateur’s league and work your way up.
Well, it depends how lucky you are with your clients.
You can find many people who need some basic research
done or just need answers to some questions they don’t
have time to uncover themselves. People on websites like
answers.com pay you for answering such queries like ‘How
do I get a date with the girl of my dreams?’ Or, ‘what
is the name of theme song in the US TV hit series,
Thunder in Paradise?’. If you really got the cheek (You
won’t be alone!), offer paid high school or college
homework help. There are private tuition classes parents
pay to send their kids, but not every student likes
that. Having a graduate or someone knowledgeable in a
certain field comes in handy to students who are looking
to meet an urgent quick homework deadline. Cut them some
slack, help them out!
