Work at home moms have an abundance of online opportunities to choose from to earn extra money. Unfortunately, there is also an abundance of shady opportunities on the Internet. The biggest tip for work at home moms to help them avoid these bad apples is to remember that no legitimate employer will ask you to pay anything in return for a job. With that in mind, lets look at five of the best ways in which work at home moms can supplement their income.
1. Freelance writing. Consider being a freelance writer and editor for a company or for individual clients. In the fast growing world of the Internet, great content is always highly sought after. If you have a specific topic that you would like to write about, consider going online to find an electronic publication or ezine to write for. If you are able to write on a wide variety of topics, then you ll find even more opportunities to write. It s easy enough to find clients; you can either join some Internet marketing forums or sign up on a couple of freelancing websites.
2. Website / graphic design. If you have an artistic flair, then you should consider entering the website designing business. All you need is Adobe Photoshop and some creative inspiration and you re good to go. Whether it be logos, banners, eBook covers, icons, blogging themes or entire websites, this type of service is always in demand. The possibilities with design are really endless and people will pay top prices if you can do excellent work for them.
3. Virtual assisting. Being a virtual assistant is kind of like being a secretary, except that you can work from your own home. You may be answering calls that have been directed through to you, responding to emails, updating websites or databases, or anything of that sort. So long as you have good interpersonal skills, have at least an average standard of reading and writing, and are proficient on software such as Word and Outlook, then is absolutely no reason why you couldn t be a virtual assistant.
4. eBay dropshipping. It s common knowledge that you can use eBay to make money by selling off your unwanted items, but not too many people know that it can also be used for dropshipping. This is basically where you find a supplier for a product, you list the product on eBay and, when it is sold, you forward the order to the supplier, you pay the supplier their cut out of the sale proceeds and keep the rest. The great thing about this model is that you do not need to worry about fulfillment or keeping inventory.
5. Blogging. This tends not to be result in instant cash but, as a long term model, you can easily make a passive income. To get started, you just need to set up a Wordpess blog on your own domain, with the total cost of doing so being about $10 a year. If you post regularly, and keep your content consistent to your theme, your readership will steadily grow, your blog will gain visibility within your niche, and you ll start to earn money from ads as well as other revenue sources.
