Making money is usually an activity associated with and limited to the traditional "offline" method, but this is a completely wrong approach.

Thanks to the internet, which has taken over much of our lives, more and more people are looking for ways to earn money online to supplement their income or to actually live on the money they earn on the internet.

Start a blog

If you have a blog, you automatically have a lot of monetization tools at hand: from becoming a personal brand to affiliate marketing.

Of course, you don't have to expect results overnight. And in the case of a blog, you have to think carefully before choosing your niche. Moreover, you need a community, and for that, you need to be able to do a little quality online marketing.

Freelancing

If you know how to do something that would be useful to others, then you can offer "micro-jobs" online. What you do through freelancing is to sell your services directly to the interested entity, without being employed anymore. The most popular jobs are content / copywriting, interior design, online graphics, coding, material editing, and so on.

There are many sites for every freelancing sector. For example, if you want to earn from writing or web graphics, you can use platforms like Fiverr, Freelancer, or Upwork.

To make money online as a freelancer you need to start by building a strong portfolio. This can often mean offering free services to certain reputable companies.

Once you form this portfolio you can start contacting older clients to increase your income.

Online translations

You do not need to be a certified translator to do this. What you will need, however, is to know at least an advanced language at an advanced level. If it is also less popular, it is even better. Mandarin, Japanese and Swedish is some examples of languages ​​that can bring you substantial income if you know them.

You cannot use tools like google translate for this job because you will lose customers quickly. What you can do, though, is use applications to improve your knowledge.

Sell things online

If you need quick money, then you can do a good job emptying the house a little. You would be surprised how many people might need your things.

Moreover, Facebook sales groups have become more and more popular! Just make sure you take some successful photos and that you don't post anything bad or that you present a false description.

Sell photos or videos online

Everyone has a high-performance camera (at least on the phone). Of course, if you have a DSLR, this business idea is even more suitable for you.

However, you don't need too much to make money online with photos and videos. You mainly have to enjoy photographing various things and have minimal editing knowledge. Then you can upload them to certain platforms, such as iStockPhoto.

The more interesting the photos, the better!

Develop an application

If you are not an IT specialist then you probably feel the need to jump directly over this point. Nothing wrong! Find out that today there are a lot of independent platforms that teach you to step by step how to make an application, without the need for coding skills.

When it comes to making money with your app, it's best to add it to the App Store and Google Play. You can start with a free application, for a start, until you learn how to develop it more. Then you can add certain paid options after you have seen exactly what volume of people it attracts.

Do online trading

More and more people are investing online. If you feel that you have a good intuition and you like to follow trends and figures, then this may be the best option for you.

However, if you want fast results and you tend to be impulsive, then maybe it would be good to focus on something else because if you throw your head forward without documenting yourself enough in advance, then you risk wasting not only time but and money.

When making online transactions, it is good to be patient and to carefully analyze the performance of various markets.
