Report: Make Money Online Working Part Time

Although many people who choose to make money online have the goal of being able to work full time online and thus quit their day job, the reality is that you can make money online working part time and have the rest of the day to yourself or to your ‘day’ job to supplement your internet income if you’re worried about dry periods.  What are the best ways to make money online working part time?

Writing

Writing, whether it’s freelance writing or blog writing (or both) tends to fit well into the part time money making motif.  This is because it’s a seasonal job that only takes up one to five hours a day (or less or more depending on your desires) and you can still make a good income from it.  If you decide to make money blogging, you can money through text link ads or affiliate ads and if you are a freelance writer, you will be paid by your clients for your work.  Working part time as a writer can net you at least a few hundred dollars a month and far more than that if your blog becomes very well known or you start ghostwriting things like scripts, books or get plenty of well paying commissions.

Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing can be called ‘passive income’ because once you get your sites set up where you are posting your affiliate links and those sites become well known in search engines, you don’t have to do much more beyond maintenance.  Although affiliate marketing isn’t exactly part time in the beginning, through a combination of outsourcing and hard work, you can soon have your sites making money with very little effort on your part.

Paid Surveys

Paid surveys can be a good way to make money online working part time, but only if you sign up with survey companies that will a) pay you in cash and b) have enough surveys for you to make some money from.  These are hard enough to find without all of the scams to contend with, but with some diligent research, you can find legitimate paid research companies to work for.  However, paid surveys are best relegated to part-part time work; you won’t make very much money and there may be long dry periods.

To be very frank, most online jobs tend towards part time, either because they are seasonal (so to speak) or because you only have to commit a few hours a day to doing things like marketing, bookmarking and other things that make your website more visible.  However, it is important to keep in mind that at least for the start, you won’t be making a ton of money, so make sure you have some stable income coming in and then slowly switch over to making money online as your businesses become more profitable.  The most important thing is to pick something you’ll enjoy doing so that you stick with it and have the passion to make the most of it.  In that way, you can make money online and enjoy your job at the same time.
