5 Easy Work At Home Opportunities For 2012
Most marketing professionals that have been in the work at home industry for awhile know that there is no such thing as instant, easy Internet riches. However, there ARE many fairly easy ways to make legit money online. If you’re interested in finding out what type of “easy” work at home opportunities I’m referring to, keep reading. 2012 can be the year you can say; “I successfully work at home.”
When searching for a legitimate work at home opportunity, you of course need to be on the look out for scams. If you’ve had experience with successfully earning money online and have done extensive research for Internet scams, then you know that these scams are relatively easy to spot. Those ads that claim you can earn (for example); $1000.00 per week without lifting a finger are for sure among the infamous work at home scams. Also, for those shady money making websites that don’t include a reputable way to get in touch with the site owner…yes, you guessed it, it is indeed a scam site.
Now let’s get into some legitimate ways you can earn some decent income online. For the article writing for content mills and paid surveys, you will need to be consistent and be involved in several paid surveys and write for various content mills to earn more than “pocket change.” For the others I have listed, you can make some good money.
Don’t just keep one egg in your basket. By combining the money making options below, you have a better chance at experiencing work at home success. Also for these opportunities listed here, you will need web search skills and basic typing skills.
Social Media Expert – It doesn’t take much to be a social media expert. If you consistently follow rules and swear by the motto of “proper social networking etiquette,” then you won’t experience much challenge. However, finding work at home professionals that need this type of service may pose a challenge for you. With that said; If you have a Twitter and Facebook account and you frequently use both, you will find getting clients for this type of work more easily.
Paid Surveys – First tip here – Please don’t pay a fee to join any paid survey websites. There are plenty legitimate ones that really do pay and also are free to join. You will have to invest a bit of your time to research the ones that will be worth your time.
Get Paid For Tweeting – If you love Twitter, you will love this money making opportunity. It’s free and it’s easy. I’ve been paid several times from Sponsored Tweets. You are paid via Paypal. Sign up free SponsoredTweets.com.
Article Writing For Content Mills – There are numerous content mills that will pay you for writing articles. For most of these type of sites, you don’t have to have a writer’s degree or even be a professional writer. However, most do not pay well. Searching for a few that will fit with your writing schedule and topics will take a bit of time. Sign up for 2, or 5, or however many content mills you like and that you can handle. Afterwards, you will be ready to make money. Consistent writing is key with this option. You can search for these by typing “article content mills” or “get paid for writing articles” into Google.com.
Internet Researcher – There are lots of computer search savvy individuals. If you are one of them, then you stand a chance at earning money just for searching the web. Just like the “Social Media Expert” option, you will need to find clients for this one. A lot of potential clients need people to do this for website content, article content, sales copy, newsletters, and so forth. If you have your own website to promote your services, that would be a big plus for your success. It don’t cost an arm and a leg for hosting if you find a good hosting company. Host Gator is an excellent one. You will have to come up with a domain/website name. Then WordPress.org would be a good choice to get installed on your site. WordPress is super user friendly.
One Last Thought – If you have a positive attitude, you are a good multitasker and are fairly organized, you will be more inclined to be able to earn a decent income from home. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise! The sky is the limit with earning possibilities.
