There are more easy ways to make money today than there have been for decades. As you work toward financial freedom, finding ways to make extra money<\/a> can be a huge help. Whether you’re putting in a few hours delivering pizza or saving your extra change, every penny that you can save will give more security. There are also options for making money online, which allows you to earn more money in your free time without needing to go out. Here are just a few ideas on how you can to make more money in your spare time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get Paid to Take Surveys<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Millions of people take paid surveys online every year. One of the easiest ways to make money online and at home in your own personal time is to take free paid surveys<\/a>. There are dozens of companies that will pay you to take surveys. Sometimes you will earn points and rewards, and other times you will earn cash. In many cases, you will be required to earn a minimum amount in order to redeem your payment. Some surveys can take minutes while others can take over an hour – and sometimes the more involved surveys can included in-person involvements. The more they ask you to do, the more you typically earn. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Online Content Writer<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you want to put in the work, get paid quickly, and move on with your life, working as an online content writer might be a great option for you. These writers get paid weekly or monthly to create ghostwritten content for Internet Marketers, product descriptions for brands, eBooks and short reports, and website content. Writers are usually paid by the word, with rates varying widely depending on experience. Companies like Textbroker<\/a>, WritersDomain<\/a>, WriterAccess<\/a>, and SteadyContent<\/a> can all connect you to your next writing job. Most of these companies will require a resume and a writing sample, and they may also require that you to take a writing test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have a quiet home and enjoy customer service, companies like 1800FLOWERS<\/a>, UHAUL<\/a>, and Amazon<\/a> hire periodically through the year for work-at-home contractors. These companies train workers to answer and process calls from their homes on a pre-determined schedule. Instead of leaving home to commute to a job at a call center, you can answer customer calls from the comfort of your home office, on a schedule that works for you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Online Teaching<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you have a Bachelor’s Degree or are in the process of obtaining one, you may find that teaching online is a fun and easy way to make money. You can create resources for teachers and sell them online through sites like TeachersPayTeachers<\/a>, or you can teach your own courses about almost any subject through a site like Outschool<\/a>. There are also online schools that teach English as a second language, including VIPKid<\/a> and Cambly<\/a>. These sites pay English instructors to work with children overseas by video, where you can help them to learn to speak English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transcription<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Transcription work typically pays by the audio minute, not by the hour. If you’re new to transcription, you’ll need to first gain experience<\/a> with general transcription jobs. Medical and legal transcription work is more specialized and requires additional training. However, you can often take this training from home, if you decide that you enjoy the work. Transcribers need to have excellent listening skills, good spelling and grammar, and a quiet environment to work in. Some companies also require their contractors to have a transcription pedal and the software that accompanies it. You can start looking for transcription work on job boards, or through sites like SpeechPad<\/a>, Rev<\/a>, and TranscribeMe<\/a>. If the sites are not currently hiring new workers, check back regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Graphic Design<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you are a graphic designer, it may make sense to work to launch your own graphic design service from home. Many website owners and web designers need graphics on a regular basis. If you can provide them with high-quality work at a reasonable rate, you’ll have no shortage of jobs. Gather up some of your best samples into an online portfolio, then place an ad promoting your services on web designer forums like Warrior Forum<\/a> to start building up a customer base. Continue to promote your business as you attract new customers and fill your calendar, and before you know it you’ll have enough work to keep you busy. You can also look for ads on job boards, promote yourself locally, and ask for referrals from friends and family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social Media Manager<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you’re great with social media, you may find that being a social media manager is an easy way to make money online. Social media managers are in high demand as many businesses simply don’t have time to juggle their own social media presence. Sites like Indeed<\/a> and FlexJobs<\/a> are great places to look for this type work, as they often post new listings. Social media managers need to be able to run successful campaign across different platforms, create compelling advertisements, and focus on inclusive marketing that creates user engagement. If you have these skills, it may be time to brush up your resume!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Virtual Assistant<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the past, business owners and executives typically had on-site assistants to keep everything running smoothly. Now, virtual assistants do the same tasks, except they do them remotely. If you have administrative skills, are highly organized, and love to keep projects moving toward their deadlines, you may be able to start your own virtual assistant business or work for a company that provides these services. Byron<\/a>, FancyHands<\/a>, and Smith.ai<\/a> all offer virtual assistant jobs from home that pay either hourly or by the task. These positions allow you to put your skills to work earning an income from home, without the need to go into an office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve been wondering how to make extra money, but aren’t ready to get a job outside the home, one of these options might be a great fit. Spend some time brushing up your resume, then put your best foot forward. You’ll be earning a respectable side income from home before you know it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
