Some people in this world have been blessed with the talent of being able to write great content. If you are one of these people then perhaps you should look into starting your own website or blog. There isn't all that much money to be made by blogging with the exception of a small percentage of bloggers. But should you go down the route of starting your own website or blog then you don't have the issue with revenue sharing that you will encounter with many content farms.
If you have the extra cash to get started and enough knowledge to get by then perhaps look into starting your own content producing website. If you are smart and use websites such as Craigslist or other writing forums to get the word out then some people will be wanting to write content for your site. You can choose the prices and no matter how low odds are somebody will be eager to write content to place on your website or blog.
I have found that college students are usually real willing to produce content or at bare minimum sell you the college papers that they have already written and turned in for grades. It is just sitting there already in their position so why not offer them a couple bucks for some graded written material. This is especially of interest when you are dealing with medical or law students.

Have Your Money Work For You
This is one of the things that the wealthy do to stay wealthy. Instead of working for money they have their money work for them.... How can you do that some at home will likely be asking at this moment. Well there are numerous ways and we are gonna take a look at some of those today.
Flipping Goods
Essentially when you are flipping goods you are investing your money in something short-term with the anticipation of reselling it later for a profit. This is probably most commonly done with houses and cars. In this economy it has become extremely risky to risk houses because people simply cannot afford houses these days. A ton of people got burned around the start of the recession as they had money tied up in houses intent to resell only to see the values sink like a stone.
So what do you do to make money flipping goods in this economy? Well you have to think about the mindset of your intended customer. With the way people are hurting for money you need to try and find things that are gonna lead to people saving money. Right now one of the hottest tickets is to buy cars or vehicles that are great on gas. Everybody is looking for those vehicles but if you can keep your eye open there are major deals to be found especially on sites such as Craigslist. Gaming systems and games are also another area where people are buying used on Ebay instead of paying insane prices at the store.
Investing
No matter how little the amount people need to be investing their money. There are people sitting at home thinking that the stock market is in the toilet why should they invest their hard earned money? This happens in every downturn throughout history. At times when the economy is at its lowest is when the rich invest and make their fortunes. Like they always say you buy low and sell high. If you have the money to stick into investments with the understanding that it is a long-term investment you will make money because the stock market is gonna rebound and when it does everybody who is buying now is gonna stand to make a good sum of money.
Low Cost Startup Businesses
If you are business savvy and know how to deal with people then there are many low cost startup businesses that you can put together and manage without even having to do any of the work. Essentially you will be putting up your own money to buy supplies and dealing with customers and contractors. Then you go out and find some reliable people to work for you on this project and split the money.
For example a small business cleaning company has a real low initial startup cost. Essentially all you need are basic cleaning supplies and equipment that many people even already have at home. A smart person with connections can go out and lineup enough offices and houses to clean on a regular basis to keep some workers making part-time or even full-time wages while earning you a share of the profits as well just for setting it all up.

Work For Yourself
A main principle that I always try to keep in mind when thinking of new ways to make money is just to do things for yourself. If you look around you won't find too many wealthy people that got that way by working for somebody else. Just stop and think about that for a second. If you are working for somebody else then they are making money off of your time and skill.
That idea is the same whether we are talking about working a regular job or even here online. Rather than writing for some of these websites and making peanuts go out and do it for yourself. Dish out that money to get your own website rolling or even start up a free blog. If you put in the effort you can make money online using free sites such as blogspot. Just do the research and work and it will pay off down the road.
But if you do go about starting your own blog or website my advice would be to try and find a niche topic that has little competition. You can use the Google Adwords Keyword Tool to help you figure out what kind of interest it gets from advertisers. If you go to Google and type in something like making money then you may get a billion search results. But there are specific topics that you could search for and find 80,000 search results and those are the kind of topics you want in my opinion. I would rather be on the first page of Google for a small topic than the ninth page of Google for a bigger topic.

Make Money Online with eHow
I have yet another way to make money online and I'm talking about eHow. I just recently stumbled upon this site and it's a pretty good one. You basically write how-to articles with information about doing certain things. There is a ton of competition at this site but if you can write about some unique things then there is certainly the chance to make money online at eHow.
The pay is a little different because you more or less get paid for ad clicks instead of page views. This may sound like a turn off to some people but I think it's actually a great thing. I have one particular article that consistently makes $2-4 a day. I'm a writer not a math major but that comes out to $60-120 a month for that one article alone. If you can write enough articles then you can definitely make money online at eHow.
Another great thing is that you can co-promote your work at Bukisa to increase your page views which in turns increases your possible page clicks. This is a way to make money online by making your articles work harder for you in the process. The post below talks more about Bukisa as well. Here is an example of one of my good eHow articles.

Make Money Online with Bukisa
I have for you today another site where you can make money online and it's called Bukisa. This site is much like Associated Content in that you get paid for page views. They don't pay upfront for articles but pay more in the long run. They pay between $3-4 for every 1,000 page views.
The good thing about Bukisa is that it's a fairly new site so the content isn't saturated and there is plenty to write about and be the first on the site. Also the only requirement is that the articles only be 250 words compared to 400 words at Associated Content. Basically in a nutshell you can pump out some articles and make money online with Bukisa.
Another very good thing and way you can make money online with Bukisa is that they reward you for referrals. I'm gonna give you my referral link below and if you want to be in my network I'd greatly appreciate it. If you're gonna sign up anyways why not do it as a referral and help someone out :) Once you're signed up then you can do the same thing as well.

Make money online with eBay
One way to make money online that we have yet to discuss is through eBay. You would be amazed at what some of the things laying around your house is worth. In the coming days I will be listing off things I have sold and made considerable profit on eBay.
The first thing I will mention is old video games or vintage video games as you will call them once your selling them and making money online. Some of your older games for the Nintendo and Sony game systems are worth a good deal of money. You have to do the research to find out what they are worth before you just start buying the games for resell. You can usually find some good bargains at pawn shops and yard sales if you know where to look for these sort of things.
