1. Freelance work

Doing freelance work, whether it's copywriting, translation, graphic design, video editing, app development, or marketing, is one of the simplest methods to make money. There are numerous websites, both Indian and international, that allow teenagers to earn money for their talents. Chegg India, Freelance India, Freelancer, Upwork, and Fiverr are just a few of them.

How do you go about doing it?

Step 1: Register on the site by providing your name, e-mail address, country name, and other information. Your account will be created once your information has been validated.

Step 2: You'll need to build a profile based on your degree, experience, and skill, and you'll be able to take freelance work only when it's accepted within a certain time frame.

2. Instagram influencer

In a certain field or industry, such as gaming, food, beauty, fashion, fitness, etc., an influencer is someone who has a big number of internet followers, including high-profile people and celebrities. Instagram postings and videos, a popular phenomenon among teenagers and youth, may also help them earn money through sponsored posts, product reviews, brand promotion, photo sales, affiliate marketing, and selling one's own items.

How do you go about doing it?

Step 1: Choose a specialty sector that you are enthusiastic about, about which you have some experience or skill, and about which you can frequently post.

Step 2: Create a memorable profile picture that people will recognize, as well as an interesting bio that will establish your trustworthiness.

Step 3: Go to Settings and change your account to a professional or business account. This will provide you more choices for analyzing, engaging, and targeting your audience.

3. Blogging/Vlogging

What was once merely a forum for expressing one's passions is now a viable source of income. You can attract readers or visitors to your blog by blogging about a specific topic of interest, which can then transfer into money. You can make money from your blog or vlog on YouTube in a variety of ways, including Google AdSense ad placements, affiliate marketing (advertising other people's products on your site), product reviews, guest posting on other people's blogs, or product sales.

Log in to your Amazon account at www.affiliateprogram.amazon.in. Fill in your account details.

Step 2: Next, you must submit a list of your websites and apps, or at least one, on which you will place banners, widgets, links, or other Amazon advertisements. You can add up to 50 websites or apps to your account.

Step 3: In the Profile section, tell us about your sites and applications, the products you want to sell, the type of traffic you get, how you get it, and how much money you make.

How do you go about doing it?

The first step is to select a blogging platform. While there are several free blogging platforms available, such as WordPress, Blogger, Tumblr, Medium, Ghost, Squarespace, and others, it is recommended that you create a self-hosted blog (preferably with WordPress. org). This is due to the fact that free blogs are limited in terms of customisation and features, have limited storage capacity, and do not allow adverts or affiliate links, which are the most lucrative revenue streams. The blog will have to be paid for.

Step 2: Decide on a domain name and hosting package. With your own domain name, you'll be taken more seriously and professionally, and purchasing a Web hosting service will allow you complete control over the design and feel of your blog.

Step 3: After that, choose a topic that interests you and begin writing, sharing information, or posting videos on it. If you want to build expertise and a loyal following, you'll need to put in a lot of effort, time, and effort. You must also post on a regular basis and give original information.

Step 4: Promote your blog on all social media networks, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, and others, to increase traffic and earnings.

How much money can you make?

In a year or so, a blogger can earn Rs 20,000-30,000 per month. Teenagers who are just starting out in their careers may earn less. Amit Agarwal, India's top blogger, makes $60,000 (Rs 44.4 lakh) per month.

4. Amazon Associates online

You can do the same thing with Amazon links and earn a commission, just like you can with affiliate marketing while blogging. Amazon Associates is an affiliate marketing network that allows you to place links on your website or blog and earn referral fees when customers click on and purchase Amazon products. It's completely free to join and use.

How do you go about doing it?

Step 1: Log in to your Amazon account at www.affiliateprogram.amazon.in. Fill in your account details.

Step 2: Next, you must submit a list of your websites and apps, or at least one, on which you will place banners, widgets, links, or other Amazon advertisements. You can add up to 50 websites or apps to your account.

Step 3: In the Profile section, describe your sites and apps, the types of things you want to sell, and the types of traffic you expect.

5. Online surveys

Paid online surveys are possibly one of the easiest ways for teenagers to get money. Swagbucks is one of the most well-known sites, and it rewards you for doing things like taking out surveys, watching videos, and buying, among other things. Toluna, Telly Pulse, CashCrate (aggregator of survey sites), ValuedOpinions, OpinionBureau, Streetbees (app), and other sites that offer surveys include Toluna, Telly Pulse, CashCrate (aggregator of survey sites), ValuedOpinions, OpinionBureau, Streetbees (app), and others. A user can usually only take a certain amount of surveys each month on each site. ....

How much money can you make?

You normally earn points that can be exchanged for cash (PayPal), checks, or gift cards and vouchers. You can earn between Rs 1,000 and Rs 2,000 every week. To earn effectively, you should register with at least 8-10 sites or applications.
