Easy (Kinda) Money

One of the projects that I have wanted to do for some time is to create an e-book. While standing in the shower I have virtually written the entire thing in my head. However, as I have mentioned in previous posts, I cannot type worth a darn. So now, with the luxury of Dragon Naturally Speaking I am prepared to embark on this next endeavor. Obviously, it is not going to be a cakewalk, but I believe with this assistance I can definitely pull it off. At this point, I am not ready to talk about the subject, simply because it does interfere with my day job.

I have studied many of the passive income streams of other successful people. One of the most successful streams seems to be e-books. My goal is to complete the rough draft be my birthday, August 7. This may be too ambitious a goal; however, I have never been afraid of biting off more than I can chew. Although, it usually bites me back.

I believe the subject matter that I am going to write about will be both interesting and beneficial to many people, particularly in this economy. continue reading…

From time to time I will post one of my ehow articles in full for you to read, this may give you ideas, and will show you a type of ehow article format.

Make Money Online by Answering Surveys  This is not a get rich quick scheme. Most likely not a get rich scheme, period. However, you can make extra income from home if you know how to make money online by answering surveys. I have tried many different survey sites over the past few years, and I found what seems to be the best method for me to make extra money with online surveys.
1
There are basically two steps in to make money online by answering surveys. The first is the actual act of going through the surveys and offers. The second step is to refer others to the survey site. Completing the online surveys is a good way of voicing your opinion on a number of issues, while being paid at the same time. However, to increase your income, you need to refer people to the website.

Fine a good site. The key is to discover a website that pays well enough so that you can make money online by answering surveys. I have discovered two of them that seem to be worthwhile. SurveySavvy and CashCrate seem to have a good payout, and a good referral system.

The first, SurveySavvy, is a Better Business Bureau accredited site that was recommended on the “Kim Kommando” radio show. The surveys are a little slow to begin, but the payouts are reasonable. CashCrate is not actually a survey site, but refers you to other survey sites and free online offers. The payouts are good and again, so is the referral system.

I suggest using an alternate email address when signing up for these sites to reduce spam. Also, turn off the spam filter on the alternate email, as the filter will often mistake your survey offers as spam.
6
Now it is time to boost your online income. Begin referring people to the website using your referral ID. You can do this in several ways. The most obvious is referring your friends and family. This is a good start but obviously limited. To expand your referrals, you need to advertise a little. Write about these online survey sites in your blog. Try writing an eHow article about your experience with online surveys, including your referral link. You can also advertise on Craigslist and other online classifieds. In either case, be honest about what you are doing. If either SurveySavvy or CashCrate receives complaints about spamming, your account may be terminated.

Really, it is just a matter of persistence if you want to make money online by answering surveys. Simply answer all the survey offers that you can, and regularly advertise the sites. You may not get rich, but you can certainly increase your online income.
