Why not earn some extra money when share image ? People can upload their pictures to a website, and the more views the image receives, the more money they can expect to earn. Then you will be able to log in to your account, and start uploading your own images to the Share A Pic site. Members can browse through other member's images, and also members of the public can view the images on the front page. You can also upload the images to your own blog, website, bebo, faceparty, facebook, myspace and any other kind of social sites you might use. Then when people view your images you can still earn money ' and by being able to upload the images to various other sources, you are therefore multiplying your own revenue. Currently Share A Pic is the only website that we are aware of which pays other users to share their pictures on the Internet, though there are bound to be more sites like this cropping up on the Internet soon. Share A Pic has just under a thousand members, which is pretty good considering the site hasn't been established for very long. Membership at the site is completely free, to join you simply have to visit the site and fill in the application form on the page. Making Money From Your Images Making money with Share A Pic is simple . You earn money for every image view that you manage to receive. So if you upload a photo you took of your pet dog, and you manage to receive 10 image views, you will earn 10 x whatever the set payment rate is. The payment rate is dependent on the earnings from advertisements shown on the Share A Pic website. Share A Pic earns money from adverts shown on the same page as the images that you upload. This is how they can afford to pay you for each image view you receive. The Share A Pic website states that if they received a certain amount of money per month from advertising, they will anticipate a figure of money that they will split amongst the members of the site. This figure will be divided by the number of image views received in that month. So if the figure ended up being '0.005, then the earnings for that month for you, per image, would be the image-views multiplied by 0.005. So if one of your pictures received 1000 views, you would expect to earn £5. (1000 x 0.005 = £5). Joining Share A PicAt the moment Share A Pic allows sign-ups from all countries worldwide, though they only pay out in US dollars and only pay via Paypal. Share A Pic will usually pay out every 7 business days (although it states 30 days on the website) and will only pay when your balance has hit the minimum amount of $20. Share A Pic can be an excellent way of making money online from any images that you can use, though you have to be careful not to use copyrighted or adult images. The more places that you upload your pictures to, the more money you can expect to earn from Share A Pic.

Write Articles.
Associated Content and Helium
will "pay for performance" based on page views for just about anything
you want to write about. Articles on specific topics they're looking for
can earn direct payments up to about $200. The rates are probably low
for established writers, but if you're trying to break into the field
and have time on your hands, they're a great way to start. Also, a lot
of companies are looking for part-time bloggers. They may pay per post
or on a steady contract. Our Weblogs Guide posts blogging jobs weekly in the forum. Create topical resource hubs.
Are you an expert on a particular niche topic? Can you put together
an overview of the topic and assemble some of the best resources on the
topic from around the web? Then you can create topical hubs and get paid
through sites like Squidoo, HugPages and Google Knol.
Payments are based on a combination of ad revenue and affiliate fees.
You'll get higher rates doing it on your own, but these sites have a
built-in supply of traffic and tools to make content creation easier.
Advertise other people's products.
If you already have a Web site or a blog, look for vendors that offer
related but non-competing products and see if they have an affiliate
program. Stick to familiar products and brands - they're easier to sell.
To promote those products:
- Place simple text or graphical ads in appropriate places on your site
- Include links to purchase products you review or recommend in a blog, discussion forum or mailing list you control
- Create a dedicated sales page or Web site to promote a particular product
They all work - it just depends on how much time you have to spend
on it and your level of expertise with Web design and marketing.
Related: How to Really Make Money on the Internet With an Amazon.com Affiliate Site Start your own blog.You don't have to have your own Web site, or install blogging software, or even figure out how to set up the advertising. At Blogger you can set up a blog for free in less than five minutes without knowing a thing about web design, and Blogger even automates setting up Google AdSense so you can make money off your blog by displaying ads and getting paid when people click on the ads. To make even more money from it, set up an affiliate program (see below) for books, music, etc., and insert your affiliate links whenever you refer to those items. You'll have to get a lot of traffic to become a six-figure blogger, but pick an interesting topic, write well, tell all your friends, and you're off to a good start. Related: Monetizing Your Blog Microstock photography.
You don't have to be a professional photographer to sell your photos
for money. People are constantly in need of stock photography for
websites, presentations, brochures and so on, and are willing to pay for
the right image. People generally search for images on stock
photography sites by keywords, not by photographer, so you have the same
chance as anyone else of having your image picked. Just be careful that
you don't have images of trademarked brands, copyrighted art or
people's faces that are readily identifiable (unless you have a model
release), but just about anything else is fair game, and I promise -
you'd be amazed what people need pictures of, so don't make any
assumptions. If it's a decent photo, upload it. Some sites to get you
started include Fotolia, ShutterStock, Dreamstime and iStockphoto. The great thing about this is that it's truly "set it and forget it".
The above list is by no means comprehensive, but it highlights some
of the new and interesting ways to make money online without investing
any money, without having a product of your own, and without having
expert sales and marketing skills. Most of all, unlike taking surveys or
getting paid to read e-mail, the potential return on your time
investment is substantial. Help friends find better jobs. Sites like ReferEarns, Zyoin, Who Do You Know For Dough?, Bohire and WiseStepp connect employers with prospective employees, many of whom are already employed and not actively job-hunting, via networking - the people who know these qualified candidates. Rewards for referring a candidate who gets hired range from $50 on up to several thousand dollars - not chump change. If you know a lot of job-seekers (and who doesn't these days?), this is a great way to break into the recruiting business with no overhead. Connect suppliers with buyers. Referral fees are a common practice in business, but they haven't been used much in online networking sites because there was no way to track them. Sites like Salesconx, InnerSell and uRefer now provide that. Vendors set the referral fees they're willing to pay (and for what), and when the transaction happens, you get paid. uRefer also allows merchants to set up referral programs for introductions and meetings, as well as transactions.

I get very frustrated whenever I’m looking for legitimate ways to generate additional streams of income, and I come across those horrid get-rich-quick sales pages. You know the ones – where the author can’t seem to decide on a single font size, and every other word is in bold. All you have to do is sign up for their amazing program, or buy theirastonishing sales kit, and you too can be earning many thousands of dollars each month. In my quest to write, sell and make money selling eBooks, I’ve waded through mountains of these scams, and I’m here to tell you that it is possible to make money from selling eBooks, but that success does not come overnight and not without a lot of hard work. In this article I’d like to offer a guide (a free one…imagine that!) that you can use to sell your eBooks. The first step is obviously writing an eBook. Don’t concern yourself too much with copyright. Thanks to the Digital Millenium Act of 1998, anything you generate and publish online is already legally copyrighted under your author name. However, it is true that enforcing that copyright could be somewhat difficult unless you do hold proof of copyright, so if you’re very concerned about someone stealing your work, then submit the claim electronically and pay the fee. If it sets your mind at ease, it’s well worth the cost. If you’re wondering what format you should write your eBook in, here at MakeUseOf, authors provided a number of excellent tools that can help you generate that first eBook. Saikat wrote about the PHP script converter at EbookHood to convert your eBook into iPod readable format. You’ve also probably read about the cool MyEbook eBook publishing platform, or my favorite one, Zinepal, which creates your PDF eBook in a format that most common readers can display. Another very good option is converting your Word document to PDF format, as Aibek described in his article on doPDF. Once you have your eBook in a format that you can sell, you’re ready to move on into marketing and selling your eBook.
Make Money Selling eBooks Online Just Like Any Other ProductI’ve mentioned some of my own eBay history in my past articles on the auction site, and while my personal experiences as an eBay PowerSeller were not very easy, I do know that any product which you have an unlimited supply of and a high demand for do very well there. 
With that said, the eBooks that aren’t very in demand really don’t do well at all. The key, when you choose what topics to write about, is to choose eBook topics in the same way you would choose an online article topic – based on the demand for that topic and the availability of it throughout the net. The smartest thing to do when you go with eBay is to set up a seller store and post your eBooks in a permanent listing for a regular fee. Another fantastic marketplace for eBooks is Craigslist. 
This surprises many people, but the truth is that Craigslist has become a very large marketplace with a huge audience. Just like on eBay, if you’re writing on a topic that’s in demand, you’ll get interested buyers. Reaching the eBook AudienceThe very best way to achieve the highest sales for your eBook is to take advantage of those eBook directories that accept submissions from authors. While most major eBook sellers like Amazon or Barnes & Nobles only accept submissions from major book publishers, many of the smaller online firms will accept direct submissions from writers. Jack recently wrote a great article on how to publish your eBook in print using LuLu’s awesome publication service, but LuLu also offers eBook authors a fantastic resource to sell your book in electronic format as well. 
Now, selling an eBook on LuLu is not free. The right to publish comes at a price tag that’s currently about $1.49. For me, that’s about the price of a cup of coffee, and considering the fact that LuLu takes care of integrating DRM copy protection and already has a huge audience for your book – it’s well worth it. If your book sells, LuLu takes only a $2.50 cut while you get $10 in revenue. I’m very impressed with LuLu’s rates and service and would recommend them to any potential author. However, if you really only want to use a service that’s absolutely free, there is another excellent option known as TradeBit. 
At TradeBit, you can upload your eBooks where the TradeBit community can find it and buy it. For hosting and selling your eBook for you, TradeBit charges absolutely nothing upfront, and when it sells you get 75% of the revenue. Again, this is a very fair deal considering that TradeBit absorbs the costs for hosting, promoting and selling your eBook on their site and with their existing traffic. Host Your Own eBooks and Take 100% of the ProfitThere is, of course, always the self-hosting option. In this case, you would set up a blog or a website and provide your own eBooks for download through a payment system like Paypal and just offer your books in a simple format just like you would sell Amazon books on your own blog. 
The advantage to selling your own eBooks on your blog or website is that you set your own price and collect 100% of the profits. The disadvantage is that you’re starting at ground zero in attracting an audience and potential buyers. Over time, you’ll have a good traffic, a strong reputation, and a steady revenue stream – but getting there will take a bit longer if you opt for the self-hosting approach. The best option might be to start with one of the eBook sales sites in order to get people hooked on the eBooks that you write, and then switch to the self-hosted option once people recognize your name as a premium eBook author. Do you author your own eBooks? What approach or technique do you take to sell your books? Share your insight and advice in the comments section below. |
