how to make money online cashback websites

7 New and Quick ways to make money online for college/university students part 2

1. Become an Online Tutor – I’m not sure what this pays, but I’ve known people in the past who have worked with companies like e-Tutor,SmartThinking and Tutor.Com. Online tutoring is an in-demand service and growing all the time. If you like helping others learn, this could be just the ticket for you. You will have to set aside a certain number of hours per week, anywhere from 2 hours on up on average depending upon which service you go with.
2. SwagBucks – Although you can’t make money directly with Swagbucks, you can earn free or deeply discounted gift cards and merchandise. You also earn free merchandise by browsing using the SwagBucks tool bar (downloading is easy and you’ll rack up points faster by using it to search the Internet with) and doing other things like taking polls and survey’s. I know several people who get their free merchandise like jewelry or electronics and then turn around and sell them for a nice profit on ebay and craigslist. If you surf the web a lot, then this may be just the thing for you. IMPORTANT: I spent weeks thinking I was racking up points with SwagBucks. I wasn’t BECAUSE I FORGOT TO LOG INTO MY SWAGBUCKS ACCOUNT!! You only get the points if you sign into your account and then surf the internet through their search engine, take their surveys and watch their video’s (there are other ways, but these are the ones I do). So remember, SIGN INTO YOUR SWAGBUCKS ACCOUNT BEFORE YOU SURF THE INTERNET AND USE THEIR SEARCH ENGINE to get the points!   I still can’t believe I was so brain dead as to forget to sign in! Oh well, now I sign in every time I surf the Internet or shop online and my points rack up quickly. I also watch their video’s and take their polls.
3. Become an Online Juror – Even Lawyers need to practice! There are places such a eJury and TrialJuries.Com that stage mock trials. The Jurors get paid anywhere from $5 to $60 depending on how complex the case is. There’s no guarantee you’ll get a case, but it has to better than cleaning up after the old folks at the Senior Citizen Center! Many colleges have access to these mock jury trials, but from what I’ve been told, they don’t pay as much as the online jury pools. Also, as with anything in life, if you slack off on the Jury, don’t expect to be called back. The more you pay attention and get involved, the more likely they’ll “keep your name around.”

Some college students show up on the first day in a bright shiny BMW convertible. Those are the ones who do not need help. For most College Students, a few extra dollars a month goes a long ways in making it easier to study for their classes. If you’re in a pinch, there’s no need to run down to the Blood Center to give blood, just turn your computer on and go to work.

7 New and Quick ways to make money online for college/university students part 1

Project Payday (only for people living in the US and UK): A few months ago, I experimented with a way to make money quick online with a program called Project Payday. I took a day and researched this project online. Seemed real people were making real money with it. Not getting rich, but making enough extra money quickly to pay some bills or other stuff. The next day I signed up with Project Payday, watched the training video’s and browsed the Forums to get a feel as to how this program worked. In all, this process took me a few hours. The next day I followed the directions and made myself available for some “offers”. The first day, I made $55. The next day I hit it hard for about 6 hours and brought down $105 for my efforts. The following day, I worked 3 to 4 hours total and made $65. I soon found out one drawback to this program. It’s boring! No special skills are needed other than the know-how to operate your computer and use the Internet, but it is tedious work. I’m not cut out to spend hours behind a computer! Most people can make money quickly with this program, but you’ll have to put the time into it. The more time you put into it, the more money you’ll make generally. It’s not rocket science but you will have to keep track of the trials you sign up for. If you’re interested, check out Project Payday byclicking here. It’s free to sign up if you fill out an offer or you can buy directly into the program. Next you’ll need to read the promotional literature they have and watch the training video’s. They even have a guarantee that says if you follow the simple 4 step process in Method 1 and don’t make money in 24 hours, they’ll give you $100! This is the best guarantee I’ve seen online. I doubt anyone will need it though, because I found it easy to make money with Project Payday although it was boring computer work.
Read Emails – Taking Online Survey’s, etc: In my opinion, this isn’t as easy as Project Payday, but it’s real close. There are companies that receive thousands of emails every day that need to be read. Obviously the CEO or other employees can’t spend every day reading emails, so they outsource this. There are several companies where they outsource this type of work as well as other tedious, time consuming chores such as product testing, online surveys, online mystery shopping and other. Send Earnings is one such company that other companies outsource to. Consumers such as you sign up and are normally paid on a per assignment completed basis. The pay varies by what type of assignment you choose. You choose where you want to make money.Click Here to learn more or to sign up for this opportunity.
Become a Freelance Writer – Can you Write a sentence? Then you may have what it takes to make money as a Freelance Writer. You don’t have to have a degree in English either. In fact, if you can write in an easy to read manner, you have what it takes to make money writing Web content, short stories and other media. You can sell articles on Forums like DigitalPoint and SitePoint, but don’t expect to make a whole lot. Or you can sign up for a service like Freelance Home Writers. Basically this is a job board for Writers where Companies and Individuals needing Writers post their offers. You can either accept or reject them, it’s up to you. Click here for more information about the Freelance Home Writer program and learn how to make money as a Freelance Writer.
Make Money On Ebay - There are many ways to make money with eBay. It seems that the 2 most popular ways are either by going to Garage Sales or Estate Sales and buying stuff to resell. You can make some decent money this way. Back in 2001 I did this same thing for several months and I made around 1-1600 per month. But it was long hard work making all those auctions or driving around looking for deals at Garage sales. Another way that is becoming more and more popular is people starting their own online stores with the help of eBay. ProStores is an ebay company that offers several packages for you to start your online store. They do a lot of the work of getting set up for you. If this sounds interesting, give them a test drive.

4 new ways to make money online part

I’m not talking about advertising or affiliate marketing or selling your junk on eBay. Those are so last millennium! I’m talking about the new new economy.

1. Offer your professional expertise in an online marketplace: These days, you can do more than just sell your old books via Amazon and your old Coach handbags via eBay—now you can sell your professional capabilities in a marketplace. No longer are you limited to looking for a permanent or contract job on Web 1.0 style job sites like Monster or Careerbuilder. The new breed of freelancing and project-oriented sites let companies needing help describe their projects. Then freelancers and small businesses offer bids or ideas or proposals from which those buyers can choose.Elance covers everything from programming and writing to consulting and design, while RentACoder focuses on software, natch. If you’re a graphic designer, check out options like Design Outpost or LogoWorks–you don’t have to find the customers, they’ll come to you. Wannabe industry analysts might sign up for TechDirt’s Insight Community, a marketplace for ideas about technology marketing.
2. Sell photos on stock photography sites. If people regularly oooo and aaaaah over your Flickr pics, maybe you’re destined for photographic greatness or maybe just for a few extra dollars. It’s easier than ever to get yo

ur photos out in front of the public, which of course means a tremendous amount of competition, but also means it might be an convenient way for you to build up a secondary income stream. Where can you upload and market your photos? Try Fotolia, Dreamstime, Shutterstock, and Big Stock Photo.

3. Blog for pay. Despite the explosion of blogs, it’s hard to find good writers who can turn around a solidly-written post on an interesting topic quickly. GigaOM is always looking for bloggers with great content ideas and solid writing skills. How do you get noticed? Comment and link to blogging network sites. Write blog posts that are polished and not overly personal (although showing some personality is a plus).
4. Or start your own blog network. If you like the business side of things–selling advertising, hiring and managing employees, attracting investors–and have the stomach to go up against the likes of Weblogs, Inc., GigaOmniMedia, b5media, maybe you should make an entire business out of blogs. Don’t make the mistake of thinking you’ll get a lot of time to write yourself though.

Learn what are Legitimate Data Entry Jobs and how you can differentiate between Legitimate and Non-Legitimate data entry jobs

When we talk about any kind of online jobs then Freelancing Sites are the best place where we can get them. These sites are online market where some people sell Services and others Buy them.

Freelance sites give the power to Employers to hire job seekers on the internet. These job seekers will work for the employer via internet and after the completion of work, the employer will pay the employee who he hired using the freelance site.

Lot of users are now making their living via working at these sites and guess what, they are doing this from the comfort of their homes. Users can do this work from their homes or while traveling or if they are gone camping.

Here is a list of top freelance sites.

Note: I suggest you open these freelance sites in new windows and you keep reading this article. This article will help you understand what kind of data entry jobs you should do and which work needs to be avoided.

1. Elance [Free Membership Available]

2. Getafreelancer (GAF) [100% Free To Join]

3. oDesk

4. Scriptlance (SL) [For The Option "Account Type"; Choose "Programmer" NOT "Buyer"] [100% Free To Join]

Data entry is one of the easiest ways to earn on the internet but unfortunately contains the most non-legit programs.

This really is unfortunate as lot of new comers are trapped in this spamming work: these non-legit projects are opened by some people who do not respect the Law and Rules. These people want to damage other sites or people via their spam work.

What kind of Spam Work am I talking about?

There are many different kinds of non-legit jobs in the data entry category. I will try to explain about few types: once you get the main idea, you will then be able to distinguish between legal and non-legal jobs:

Captcha Entering Jobs

This is the worst kind of spamming job that one can find in data entry section.

Do you know what captcha entering actually means?

There are many online spammers who are actively working on the development of new and improved spam tools: instead of doing any useful work, they are wasting their time in the development of bad products. One of these products is used in captcha entering jobs.

What really happens in this work is that: you are required to use a simple tool to create 1000's of accounts at some site. Many spammers want to create these accounts at email related sites like Gmail, Hotmail etc.

During the email registration process, Gmail and other sites require us to enter few characters or numbers from an Image into a small box. This is called Captcha protection. These sites use this protection to protect their systems from abuses from spammers.

What abuses?

If a person starts to create 1000's of email accounts at Gmail or any other website, then this will be an abuse. Gmail is not offering their useful services to people who want to create huge number of mail accounts which they can then sell online to other spammers who will then use them to send out Spam Emails to different people.

If Gmail removes the Captcha protection then spammers can simply use their tools to create hundreds of accounts in few seconds. Their tools are designed to fill up the email account form/fields automatically with random information.

But with the Captcha protection ON, their tools cannot precede in the registration process unless someone manually enters the characters/numbers from the Captcha image. Here is when these spammers need other people to help them.

They open projects in the data entry category and normally hire New Comers. Users are given some software/tool which they need to run on their PC: this tool Runs Its Spam work in the background and then asks the user to enter the required Captcha information into a box.I am explaining all this spam process in detail as I want New Comers to understand what non-legit work is so that they can avoid it.

Basically, whenever you see a job whose title contains the work "Captcha", you should always ignore them or the better thing to do will be to report such projects to the Freelance Support.

Please note that: I have only mentioned the creation of Email accounts via automated process: there are many other types of captcha jobs where you may be required to use automated process to create accounts at other sites. Do not take any project where you are required to create accounts at any site using automated process. Some spammers may even ask you to create accounts manually: these are also non-legit projects.

Here is another example of another non-legit job:

Posting Ads at Craigslist or similar sites

Craigslist is the top jobs site on the internet. Unfortunately, some spammers use this site to advertise their products/services or they may want to use this site in a manner which is not allowed according to the rules of Craigslist.

You will see some projects under the data entry category where you will be required to do ad posting at this site. Please, before you do any kind of job, first read the Terms and Conditions at Craigslist or at any other site where you are not sure if the work you are given is legal or not.

Sending Out thousands of Emails

This is another type of a non-legit job. If you see a project where you are required to send out 1000's of emails to numerous people then most probably this will be a spam job. People buy and sell list of Email Accounts that have been gathered from the internet. Then some spammers use this list to send out advertising or scam emails to innocent people.

Before you take up this kind of work, find out how the buyer got this list of emails and do he have the proper permissions of the recipient.

There are many illegal jobs that are posted everyday under the data entry category: if you know the basics and always read/respect the rules, then you can easily avoid this kind of work.

No matter how much money is offered, Always Say NO to non-legit data entry jobs.

Spam work is a Crime: Please stay away from such work.

Say No to SPAM and Only Earn Legit and Clean Money.

Now let's talk a little about the freelancing websites:

It’s not easy to get work at the above mentioned websites. You need some guidance first you need to know the basics; you need to know many things about these sites.

If you apply for one project, then there are many other people (may be 2 other people, maybe 22) who will apply for the same project. So you need to learn how you will get a project even with other people fighting to get the same project.

The above mentioned guide is a must read if you really want to make money online.

Few definitions:

Buyers: Are people who outsource jobs at freelance sites.

Service providers: These are the people who seek jobs at freelance sites. Like you and me. Service providers or SPs do work for buyers.

Projects: At freelance sites, projects and jobs means the same. If I say “bid on a project”, then it will mean something like “apply for a job”.

After buyer post projects, job seekers like me and you, place bids on these projects. One person may offer to do the work for $100, where other may say $95. May be some other SP will offer to do the work for $90.

Now it’s up to the creator of the project to choose a winner among all job seekers.

Let’s assume that you managed to win a project worth $50. The work is simple data entry job where you have to type content from scanned pages to word documents.

You completed this work in 3 hours and then you delivered the completed work to the buyer. After delivering the work, you waited for the buyer to verify the work.

After the verification, the buyer will pay you $50. Sometimes, buyers also pay bonuses [if they are pleased with your work].

You will get this money [$50], in your freelance account. There are few payment options available at freelance sites via which you can transfer this money from freelance account to your bank account. Details about these options are explained later in this article.

I have mentioned that working at freelance site is free and that you will never spend any money from your pocket to get different kinds of online jobs.

But when you will get money from buyers in your freelance account, then there will be a small fee deducted from that money [these are the funds that you just earned].

All freelance sites charges a small fee on the money you make. You do not pay this fee from your pocket. This fee will be deducted only when you will complete a job for a buyer and that the buyer pays you the money for the completed work.

The fee which freelance sites charges varies from site to site. This fee can be 5%, 10% etc: it depends on the freelance site where you are working.

The reason for telling you the whole story is to prove that this system is %100 SCAM free. You will never have to pay anything to anyone ever, from your own pocket.

The most amazing thing about freelance sites is that, it’s totally free to join them. You will never be asked to pay any money from your pocket at any point of your freelance career.

So then: Is there any SCAM involved here?

Well, there is not; right?

Freelancing sites offer 100% legitimate data entry jobs. I personally love Copywriting jobs as they pay much better than many other jobs. You can earn a lot of money via doing copywriting work at these websites.

Unfortunately, not everybody can make money online via doing copywriting jobs, as to do this work, one need to write content in proper English. Proper English means, to write content with no spelling and no [or may be few] grammatical mistakes.

What kind of experience is required to do data entry jobs?

No experience of any kind is required. Everybody can do data entry work. If you know, how to use a PC, then you are eligible to do this work.

There is no need to think about any SCAM here, what I am telling you is %100 scam free. You only need to worry about scams when you are paying money from your pocket. But in this case, you are paying nothing.

If you still worry about scams, then after you earn $30 at a freelance site, you may stop doing more work. First request a withdrawal.

This means that you will request the freelance site to send you your money. Once you receive the money [$30] from freelance site, I guess then you will stop to worry about SCAMs.

I said to first make $30. This is because the minimum amount that you can withdraw from most freelance sites is $30. You cannot withdraw $20 or $22 or any amount which is less than $30.

How will you receive your money?

There are many payment options available at freelance sites. Payment options include:MoneyBookers, Paypal , Egold etc.

I suggest you use Paypal or Moneybookers, as these two payment options are the cheapest and safest of all. If Paypal is not supported in your country, then use MB. MB is supported in [almost] all countries.

To find more information about payment options, please read the free online jobs guide which I have mentioned above.

Just give it a try; you will not be disappointed

How to make money with free online surveys

You can make a little extra cash in your spare time by taking online surveys. Companies who want to know what’s on the minds of their customers are willing to pay for your opinion. Online surveys won’t make you rich, and won’t allow you to quit your day job, but you can make a little extra cash while engaging in a fun hobby.


Steps:
1): Search the internet for companies that will pay you to take surveys. Do not fall for scams where companies ask you to pay money to find fragile lists.
2): Fill out the screener surveys. Many survey companies offer screener surveys when you register, which usually don't pay. But it's worth the little extra time it takes to fill these surveys out, because the more demographic information the market research companies have about you, the more targeted surveys they can send you.
3): Check your email for survey opportunities. The companies you signed up with in step 1 will send you survey requests – some more often than others.
4): Choose and complete the best surveys. Now that you have lots of surveys, you can pick the ones that seem the most interesting and most lucrative to you. If you have time, do them all. If not, decide which ones you’d like to take. You're under no obligation to complete any surveys if you don't want to.
5): Earn a little extra money. When you take the surveys, the company will specify what you’ll receive as payment. Many companies pay in cash. Some offer prizes or products. Many companies let you accrue points which you can trade in for cash or prizes.
6): Be wise. Some websites say you won a xbox360 or a new laptop for example. There is usually an asterisk near the "you won" part. This means you have to do something like buying stuff before you even get to talk about your prize. Don't fall into these sorts of traps, they're ridiculously difficult and not worth it.

Top 5 ways to make money on the internet

Whether you're looking for some extra cash on the
side or a full-time job, making money on the Internet
can offer some diverting alternatives
to your regular job. See more investing pictures.

Unless you're a freegan and have found a way to live entirely off the grid, you probably need some sort of steady income in order to survive. The traditional way to earn money, of course, is by having a job. You work for a company or start your own, and the work you do earns you money, which you spend on things like a mortgage, rent, food, clothing, utilities and entertainment.

Most people typically work from their company's central location, a physical space where everyone from that organization gathers to exchange ideas and organize their efforts.
But a few lucky souls have found ways to make money within the comfort of their own home. With the Internet, an ever-changing arena for businesses, some looking to earn money are finding ways to do so.
­Some forms are best for part-time endeavors for those looking to make a little extra money on the side, while others can lead to full-time jobs and Internet success stories.

We've put together a list of our top 5 ways to make money on the Internet, in no particular order. On the next page, we'll start with an old favorite.

5: Selling Stuff on eBay

Finding stuff you don't need but others are willing to pay more for is a popular way to make money over the Web.

­It's a fairly straightforward concept that most people are familiar with by now -- if you have a bunch of stuff that you don't necessarily need but others want and are willing to pay extremely inflated prices for, you can auction off the items on eBay or other online auction sites. Simply gather your goods, create a seller's profile and start selling.

It sounds simple, but takes some practice to sell successfully. Creating persuasive and legitimate product pages for the goods you're selling will help get buyers interested. It's also important to set reasonable minimum bids to ensure that people will buy. And remember to deliver the kind of customer service that will garner positive feedback ratings and to communicate with buyers to let them know you're reliable. The more positive feedback you receive, the more people will be willing to do business with you. And that, of course, means more money.

4: Blogging

If you have a particular passion for something, whether it's a hobby or an obsession, and you have something to say about it, blogging could be a profitable way to pour out your endless stream of thought. The key here, as with many other services on the Internet, is in selling advertising.

After starting up a personal blog, many writers sign up for ad services like Google AdSense, which post those familiar sponsored links you often see at the top and on the sides of Web sites. The more times your blog readers click on those ads, the more money you'll make through the ad service. This works fine if you're a casual blogger, and you may make some extra spending money. But if the blog is consistently interesting, well-written and really takes off, you may be approached by companies who want to reach your fan base with graphical advertising around your blog. Some of the more successful blogs, like I Can Has Cheezburger? and Boing Boing, have become pop-culture phenomena, and their creators have been able to quit their day jobs and blog full time because of the money they make from advertisers.

3. Designing and Selling T-shirts

If you come up with your own t-shirt designs, some sites will press the shirts for you and share profits when they're sold.

As you walk around most high school and college campuses, you're likely to come into contact with lots of words. But it won't be material from textbooks or term papers -- those are probably in backpacks or sitting unfinished at home. Instead, they're the simple phrases or logos -- most of which are ironic or amusing -- printed on the T-shirts on the backs of the students.

Usually, the more unique and offbeat the design is, the more desirable the T-shirt is. The growth of the Internet has made it possible for vendors to sell T-shirts all over the world. In fact, sites like CafePress.com and SpreadShirt.com allow you to set up your own store, create your own designs and sell them yourself. If you create your own shirt design with a clever catchphrase or come up with your own unique statement and people like it, you can start making money.

2: Freelancing

Freelancing is similar in some ways to blogging. For one thing, you get to work from your own home or office most of the time. But there are a few important distinctions. First, if you're thinking about freelance writing, chances are you need to have more experience than the average blogger. Many freelance writing positions cover specialized topics for online publications and may require expert knowledge on a subject. However, if you're passionate about things like travel or food and know how to write, a freelancing job can provide you with good income.

Writing's not the only way to make money freelancing, of course -- anyone with graphic design or programming experience can find contract jobs that pay well and provide challenging work, too.

1: Domain Name Flipping

Based on luck, strategy and business savvy, domain name flipping can be one of the more lucrative ways to earn a living online. The term comes from the real estate trick that involves buying old, undervalued houses, fixing them up to make them more attractive and modern-looking and selling them for a much higher price.

In this case, the old and outdated place is not a house, but rather a domain name -- the main address for a Web page. With a little bit of searching, dedicated domain flippers locate unused, poorly maintained Web sites that have generic and recognizable identifiers and buy them. They usually pay a few hundred or even a few thousand dollars, but after extensive updates that make the site more business- and user-friendly, the domain name can fetch several times more than it was originally worth. The domain bird-cage.com, for instance, was bought for a mere $1,800 in 2005 -- after a redesign two years later, the site was sold for $173,000 to a bird cage vendor [source: Bhattarai].
