Write and publish a Kindle eBook to Earn Money

1. Write and publish a Kindle eBook

   
   If students are good at anything, it’s researching and writing. With the Amazon Kindle store, anyone can publish an eBook and make money.
   And the Kindle app is now available on almost any device (laptops, iPads, smartphones and yes, Kindles) so your global market is huge!
   
   List your book for £1.49 – £6.99 and you earn 70% of the sale. Considering Amazon is the ultimate selling machine (and remember people are looking to spend), that is a fantastic deal.
   The key to success with eBooks is to create value, and write non-fiction. Simply bundling information you have researched and complied on a common problem (eg. ‘secrets’ to finding a job) and then presenting it in an easy to digest format (an eBook) justifies someone spending a few quid on it.
   Another big tip is to have a great cover designed so it stands out, and once your book is live on the Kindle store (approval takes less than 48 hours) it’s really important to get some reviews so it shows up higher in results. Encourage readers to leave an honest review at the end of your book.
   The best thing about this lucrative idea is that once you’ve invested the time (say 20 hours), you’ll earn a passive income for years to come! For a step-by-step guide to publishing and earning with eBooks, see “How to write a nonfiction eBook in 21 days“.

2. Affiliate marketing

   If you’ve got a good presence on social media or perhaps you even have a blog or website, you can start bringing in money immediately by promoting all sorts of companies, products, services and offers online.
   Sign up to an affiliate network such as Affiliate Window, check their offers blog or browse the merchant listings to find something you think your friends would be interested in, grab your affiliate link and share it. If someone buys (can be within up to 90 days) using your link you’ll make a nice commission.
   To take it a step further, set up a website (read our guide) or a topical Facebook page and invite all your friends to join it and post your affiliate offers on there.
   
   

   WAYS TO MAKE MONEY
   FOR 2015!

   This article originally began as ‘ways for teens to make money’, but as I have updated and added to it over the years, I have found that many of the items listed actually work for many adults looking to make some extra income as well.
   I can remember my teenage days well. I didn’t want to work, but I needed to make money to support my social life. So I umpired, cut grass, and bagged groceries.
   I didn’t particularly love any of the jobs, but in order to offset my spending, I needed to work.
   The good news for us today is there are a wide range of ways to make money that weren’t around when I was a teenager.
   Luckily for many of us, we may already be very skilled in certain areas that could easily translate into a nice side income for us.
   So potentially, someone who is willing to work hard could make considerably more than working traditional “jobs” like at McDonalds, cutting grass, bussing tables, etc.
   

   1Make Money Online with Swagbucks

   Basically this is a free site that offers you a bunch of ways to earn cash, gift cards, or other rewards.
   You can earn money by a variety of methods including:
   
3. Answering polls
4. Using their search engine
5. Doing simple tasks (like giving feedback about a website)
6. Getting cash back for shopping online
7. Taking surveys
8. Playing games on their site.

I have tried it out and have received multiple payments from them, so I can attest that it is legit. They also offer a $5 bonus!
Oh and they also have an A+ rating with the BBB.

While you won’t get rich doing this, to me it seems like a great way for internet-lovers to make some money.  Find out more in our Swagbucks review or get started here.

2Get paid to drop Google

InboxDollars (for U.S. only) is another A+ rated online rewards program that differentiates themselves by offering cash payouts, and right now you can instantly get a $5 bonus just for confirming your email address after signing up.

You can earn with them by doing the things you are already doing online: using their search engine, printing coupons, watching videos, shopping online, etc.

One of the easiest ways to start earning without spending any time is to make their search engine your homepage. And then automatically you will be earning money every time you search.

After signing up, just click “Search” in the navigation bar, and then click “Make this my home page” like in the image above.You won’t get rich just using the search engine, but it is free money that you are missing out on by using Google.
You can sign up for FREE (and get your $5 bonus) here.

3Freebie Trading

A couple years ago I did an interview with a guy who made $28,000 in one year doing this part time. It is work and requires organization skills to do it well, but it is legit.
I tried my hand at it using Project Payday and their training materials to see that it was legit.
Basically companies are willing to pay you to do trial offers for their products. They know that many people who do the trial offer will like their product and continue to be customers, so they are willing to pay people to sign up for trial offers.
So one of the main ways of making money freebie trading is signing up for offers like a Free Netflix trial, emusic.com, applying for a Discover Card, etc. The key to success seems to be having a calendar where you can keep track of when the trial periods end and make sure to cancel before they end.
If you are interested in learning more I definitely recommend Project Payday as they have a ton of training guides (free if you complete a couple offers) that will greatly simplify the process. Oh and they have a A+ rating with the BBB as well.
