    1) Freelance Writing

    I truly believe that freelance writing is the best way to earn extra money from home. Ever since we started our online business, freelance writing has been our core means of earning money. In fact, we earned over $200,000 writing last year alone! I've even created a course that teaches you how to find writing jobs, increase your income, and get paid what you're worth.

    2) Start a Blog

    One of the best ways to make extra money from home is by starting a successful blog. Seriously, blogging has completely changed our lives. Our blog helped us make enough money to quit our day jobs and gave us the personal freedom to travel the world. By using a site like Bluehost, you can actually run your entire blog for under $5 a month. That's super cheap for what could turn out to be a huge money-making hobby.

    Use this simple step-by-step guide to creating your own blog to learn how to start a blog in just a few minutes. 

    3) Answer Surveys for Cash or Gift Cards

    Yep. You read that right. You can actually get paid to take surveys and give your opinions. Here are a few of my favorite places to try:

    Survey Junkie – Take surveys, earn points, and redeem them for cash or gift cards. Survey Junkie is a super simple way to make extra money fast. You can use any device and accounts are free.

    Harris Poll Online – When you take surveys with Harris, you'll earn gift cards to popular brands like Amazon, iTunes, and Starbucks. Signing up is free and easy.

    EarningStation – This site provides high-paying surveys and the opportunity to earn gift cards to places like Amazon, Walmart, Kohls, Chili's and more. As usual, it's fast and free to signup.

    Opinion Outpost – You can earn cash and rewards at Opinion Outpost. Just complete online surveys about new products and services and start earning right away. It takes about 30 seconds to join, and it's completely free.

    Pinecone Reserach – If you are age 18-24, a male, or are of Hispanic descent, this site pays $3 per survey to evaluate products before they make it to the shelf. Again, joining is free and takes less than a minute to sign up.

    4) Surf the Internet and Earn Rewards

    Want some more easy money and rewards? If you like to surf the internet, you may as well get paid to do it. When you use Swagbucks to visit your favorite websites, you'll earn gift cards to some of the world's biggest retailers – like Amazon, Walmart, Target, and more. (That doesn't even include the $5 bonus they give you for signing up!) Nielsen Computer & Mobile Panel also offers rewards and gift cards when you download their app and surf the internet.

    5) Freelance Editing and Proofreading

    Every website needs an editor, and you can make money doing it. Some corporations will pay you big bucks to make sure their content looks great and reads well. But don't limit yourself to just websites. You can get paid to edit and proofread for books, magazines, court reporting, and other media too.

    6) Web Design

    The internet is big business, and it's not just bloggers who need a website. Companies need websites too, and they'll pay you to help. Take free classes or teach yourself how to design websites. Then, start selling your services to those you know. Start by selling your basic services on Fiverr. This can help give you experience, build your resume, and find leads for clients interested in higher paying work.

    7) Start a Profitable YouTube Channel

    If video is more your style, try creating a YouTube channel. Like blogs, YouTube's popularity has skyrocketed over the past few years…and some people are making tons of extra money doing it. You can make money on advertisements, paid appearances, and using your forum as a brand ambassador.

    8) Promote Products and Services

    If you have a blog or social media account, you can get paid to promote products and services through affiliate marketing. Each time somebody uses your link to purchase a product or service, you get paid. Our good friend Michelle makes over $50,000 a month through affiliate marketing alone. While your results are sure to vary, you can learn all her tricks in her popular course, Making Sense of Affiliate Marketing. I've taken it myself and highly recommend it!

    9) Create a Course

    Speaking of courses, if you possess special knowledge or are an expert in a particular area, you can create an online course and sell it. The online course business is booming right now, and you can make some serious money if you hit the right niche. Personally, we use Teachable to host our course. It's an easy to use platform that handles all the ins and outs of running a profitable course. You can even create your own affiliate program with it! We love it and highly recommend it to anybody interested in creating their own course.

    Ways to Make Money With Your Car

    In today's gig economy, there are endless ways to make money. You can even make money using your own car. Here are a few ideas:

    10) Drive for Uber

    Driving for Uber is a great way to make extra money in your spare time. Just flip on the app, drive people around, and get paid. You can use your own car, or Uber can even help you find one. It's a great way to make money on your own schedule.

    Learn more about driving with Uber here!

    11) Drive for Lyft

    Like Uber, Lyft is another rideshare company that helps you make money in your spare time by driving people around. Again, you can set your own schedule. You can even drive for both companies! For a limited time, you'll also earn a $250 bonus after your first 100 rides. Terms apply.

    12) Deliver Food with Door Dash

    Door Dash is an awesome new service that allows people to order take out from hundreds of their favorite local restaurants. As a delivery driver, you'll earn extra money for things like vacation, debt repayment, and spending money. Like rideshare companies, you can work on your own schedule. Plus,they pay once a week so you can start earning money fast! (You can even use your motorcycle if you want.)

    13) Rent Out Your Car

    You've heard of renting out your house on places like VRBO and Airbnb. Now you can make money renting out your car too! Turo is a car rental marketplace that connects you with others looking for a car in your area. It's a super passive way to make money and one you should definitely check out!

    Collect Bonuses, Cash Back, and Rewards

    Banks, credit cards, stock brokers are competing for your business, and you can make extra money just for signing up. But that's not all. You can earn rewards for simple the simple things you do every day too!

    14) Collect Credit Card Signup Bonuses

    Collecting travel rewards credit cards is a great way to start making extra money. Here are a few of our favorite signup bonus offers which you can find by using the banner below:

  • Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card – Earn 50,000 bonus points when you spend $4,000 in the first 3 months after signing up. That's equal to $500 in gift cards or $625 in travel through the Chase portal.

    Ways to Make Money Off of Your Money

    Are you looking for new ways to make your money work for you? Here are a few options for you to consider:

    16) Peer to Peer Lending

    Some of  the richest businesses in the world are banks. Although you probably don't have the cash to start your own bank, you can take advantage of the loan business through peer to peer lending. While results are never guaranteed, Lending Club boats historical returns of 4-6%. There is a $1,000 minimum investment to get started. You can choose a regular investment account or place your investments in an IRA.

    17) Open a Dividend Investment Account

    Most experts agree that investing is a great way to make money over the long-term. Some investments may even pay dividends, but of course there are no guarantees. Ally Invest is a great place to start investing. They offer tons of investments, a wonderful platform, and trades for just $4.95. That is about as cheap as you'll find anywhere! Open an Ally Invest account here.

    18) Buy Real Estate

    In my opinion, one of the best ways to make extra money is by investing in real estate. We've owned rental properties for years, and it has really added to our net worth. Not only are we making money every month, the value of the property is increasing over time. It's a great addition to diversify our total portfolio.

    RealtyShares is a good option if you like the idea of real estate investing but don't want to mess with being a landlord. This allows you to invest in a variety of real estate properties – including single family homes, multifamily, and business properties – without being a landlord yourself.

    19) Invest in Real Estate Debt

    PeerStreet provides investors with a marketplace to invest in real estate loans. They work with private lenders across the country, vetting each lenders track record. Although results aren't guaranteed, you get to choose your target return rate based on the level of risk you'd like to assume. It's a really cool way to invest in both real estate and debt!

    How to Make Extra Money with a Side Business

    Want to know how to make extra money but still create sustainable income? Starting a legitimate side business takes time, but it could develop into a steady stream of income if you stick with it. Again, most of these jobs don't require any special licensing, but check your local rules to be sure.

    20) Start a Painting Company

    Practically nobody likes to paint, but it's a skill that almost anybody can learn. The cool thing is that people will pay you a lot of money to paint their house. In our area, you could easily make a thousand dollars a week (or more) if you really went for it. If the making money online thing doesn't work out, you can bet your bosom I'm starting a painting company.

    21) Do Landscaping

    Let's face it: People hate yard work. They hate mowing. They hate trimming bushes. They hate leaves. Anyone who has enough money to pay someone to do these things frequently does.  Start your own landscaping company and begin cashing in today!

    22) Shovel Snow

    What's the only thing people hate more than leaves? You guessed it! Snow. Turn your summer landscaping business into a snow removal service. Grab a shovel, knock on some doors, and pick up some jobs. Heck, go out and get a cheap snow blower if it helps. Better yet, put a plow on the front of your truck and push snow off of parking lots. Businesses pay thousands a year to keep their lots plowed, salted, and safe for their customers.

    23) Edit Film and Video

    People love to communicate through film and video. Whether it's slide shows for graduations and weddings, or professionally made videos advertising a business, people will pay you to make their videos. All it takes is a camera, an editing program, and an eye for detail and you could be making extra income in no time.

    24) Photography

    Speaking of cameras, starting your own photography business is one of the best ways to make extra money. Even amateur photographers can make good money taking family photos, graduation pictures, and business headshots. Just get yourself a nice digital camera like the one we use, take a photography course, and start shooting for cash!

    25) Clean Houses

    Oh yeah. I forgot to mention that most people hate cleaning their house too. For years, Holly made a nice living cleaning houses. All she did was print flyers, knock on some doors, and ask for referrals from customers. She never had any shortage of work, and neither will you.

    26) Clean Businesses

    Homeowners aren't the only people who pay for cleaning. Businesses need their workspace cleaned too. Create some business cards or flyers, and pick up a few corporate cleaning gigs to line your pockets.

    27) Industrial Floors and Windows

    In addition to the regular dusting and mopping, some offices need a little bit of extra help. You can make some serious cash by starting your own industrial floor and window cleaning business. Again, the more you hustle, the more money you'll make.

    28) Cut Hair

    Do you know how to cut hair? Start your own beauty salon! You can make extra money by charging your friends for haircuts. If you're a trained beautician, you can charge even more.

    29) Do Nails

    While you're at it, do your friends' nails too.

    30) Become a Tour Guide

    Don't know how to make extra money but love to educate others? Become a local tour guide. Show others around your city for a fee, and make a few dollars along the way. Be sure to research and comply with any local laws before opening up shop.

    31) Become a Virtual Assistant

    Businesses are always looking to outsource tasks, and they'll pay you for help. Virtual assistants work online, and can be hired on a per-project or ongoing basis. Websites like Outsourcely can help connect you with potential employers.

    32) Become a Personal Assistant

    Just like businesses, people will pay you to help organize their life. As a personal assistant, you may work virtually or in person. Tasks could include answering emails, booking appointments, shopping for groceries, doing laundry, and more.

    33) Start a Handyman Business

    If you have home repair skills, a handyman business may be a great way to make extra money. Where I live, demand for handyman services is so high that most handymen I've talked to make about $40 an hour. That's good money if you can hack it.

    34) Be a Masseuse

    Want to make extra money on the side? Consider getting trained (and probably liscened) so you can start a a massage therapy business. You can run it part-time out of your own home and make some serious pocket change.

    35) Provide Real Estate Management

    Many rental property owners live out-of-town or prefer not to deal with their renters. So what do they do? They hire a real estate manager. By screening tenants and dealing with problems, you can earn a percentage of the monthly rent. It's definitely something you can do part-time, or grow it into a full-time gig if you want.

    36) Rent a Room

    Got an extra room to spare? Take on a roommate to save money, or rent it out for some extra cash.

    37) Rent Your Vacation Property

    If you're lucky enough to own a vacation property, you may already know that you can rent it out when you're not there. If you haven't done so already, check out websites like VRBO to list your property and start making money today.

    38) Event Planning

    Do you love entertaining and have a keen eye for details? Starting an event planning business may be a great way to generate some side income. As an event planner, you can help plan everything from weddings to company parties. Get your name out there and start networking right away.

    39) Interior Design

    If you love furniture, wall art, and paint colors, doing interior design work in your spare time is an excellent way to make extra money. There are plenty of people willing to pay for your talent, provided they're happy with your work.

    40) Start a Vending Machine Route

    Ever see vending machines in office buildings and retail stores? Somebody has to fill them. You could get paid to do it by picking up your own routes.

    41) Rent Equipment

    Do you have sporting equipment or power tools sitting in your garage? Throw up an ad on Craigslist and see if you can make some quick cash renting it out.

    42) Party Rentals

    Ever wonder who owns those bounce houses you see at kids' birthday parties? Well, that could be you…and you could make money doing it. Just buy the equipment, start advertising, and rent it out for all type of events. You can even add things like tables, snowcone machines, and cotton candy makers to drive up revenue.

    43) Promote Fitness Products

    If you've used any fitness products, you can earn extra money by promoting them to your friends. We've used Beachbody's Focus T25 and have seen great results. (See how that works!) Use the products, get results, and earn commissions on referrals. Simple as that.

    44) Find a Need and Fill It

    Seriously, you can start a side business for almost anything. Just find a need and fill it. I know somebody who makes a six-figure income by cleaning industrial screens and filters. Seriously, who the heck thinks of that?!? The person hauling in six figs, that's who. So find a need, fill it, and make some money!

    Make Extra Money Providing Services

    HUGE list of ways to make extra money from home and other making money ideas!

    Even if you don't want to start a full-fledged business, there are tons of ways to make extra money. Try provide some of these simple services instead. Again, while most of these don't require any special licensing, be sure to comply with any federal, state or local compliance regulations.

    45) Graphic Design

    I can't tell you how many times I've needed to somebody to make a nice looking graphic for me. If you're good with computers, starting a small graphic design business could net you some nice side money. Fiverr and Outsourcely are great places to start looking for clients.

    46) Consulting

    Do you have specialized knowledge that people would pay you for? Instead of helping everybody for free, provide consulting services on the side. It doesn't have to take much time, and you can make some extra money doing it.

    47) Tutor

    Help students learn by providing tutoring services. This works especially well for those with a degree in a particular subject like math or English. You'll help students succeed while earning extra money on the side.

    48) Manage Social Media

    Do you have a huge social media following? Could you help others do the same? Businesses and bloggers will pay you to improve their social media presence. Build your following, reach out to others, and get paid to help them do the same.

    49) Sell Gigs on Fiverr

    Fiverr is a great resource for selling specific services to a large audience. I've used Fiverr for .PDF creations, graphic designs, and more. Really, you can offer almost any sort of service there. Basic gigs start at $5, but you can offer add-ons to sweeten the pot.

    50) Become a Coach

    If you've been successful in a certain area, others almost always want to know your secret. Coach them how to do it and charge them for your knowledge.

    51) Prepare Taxes

    Doing taxes sucks, and people will pay you to avoid doing their own. Offer tax preparation services and cash in on this universal pain point. Be sure to check IRS and local regulations before opening shop!

    52) Mystery Shopping

    Still don't know how to earn extra money? Try mystery shopping. Yeppers, you can get paid to accept secret shopping assignments. There are several different companies you can work for. Just choose one and start earning.

    53) Become a Translator

    If you're fluent in more than one language, earn extra money by becoming a translator. Companies, websites, and more are always looking for translators. You may even be able to make money online or from your own home.

    54) House-Sit

    Seriously, what's better than getting paid to watch somebody else's house? Talk about passive income!

    55) Babysit or Nanny

    Babysitting is a great way to make extra money, and it's something that almost anybody can do. Professional nannies can make even more, especially if you have good references and some experience.

    56) Petsit

    Don't want to watch kids? Watch pets instead. Websites like Rover.com can hook you up with pet owners needing assistance. Do it from home, charge what you want, and make a little extra for hanging with the creatures you love.

    57) Walk Dogs

    In the same vein, pet parents are happy to pay you to walk their dogs. Do it as a one-time service, or gather several clients and make it a nice side hustle.

    58) Pet Grooming

    Keeping with the pet theme, you can make extra money grooming our furry friends as well.

    59) Wash and Detail Cars

    After you're done giving the dogs a bath, go ahead and start washing cars. Shine up the outside and detail the inside for a premium. Rich people hate doing this too, so there is money to be made.

    60) Run Errands

    Join a website like TaskRabbit, and get paid to run errands for other people. Hit the grocery store, grab their mail, or deliver a chair they bought from Office Depot. You can make money doing almost anything other people don't want to do themselves.

    61) Basic Elderly Care

    We used to help several of our elderly neighbors and friends…for free. We'd do their grocery shopping, run their errands, grab their medications, and make sure they were OK. They would have gladly paid us, but we declined. However, there is a market for help, and you could fill the void.

    62) Personal Cuddler

    Yes. This exists.

    63) Repair Computers or Cell Phones

    Have some technical knowledge about computers or cell phones? Make extra money repairing them for family, friends, and neighbors.

    64) Car Maintenance and Repair

    Know a lot about cars? Make extra money changing tires, oil, brake pads, and more.

    65) Put an Ad on Your Car

    Speaking of cars, you can actually get paid to drive your own car around town. Companies like Carvertise will pay you real money to stick advertisements on your car. Just sign up, put on the ad, and rake in the cash.

    66) Help People Move

    Moving sucks, y'all. Plus, it usually takes more than one strong back to make a move successful. People are always looking for help. Offer your services and pad your wallet.

    67) Remove Junk

    Moving might suck, but cleaning out your junk sucks even worse. Plus, where do you even bring half of that crap? You can make extra money by hauling away somebody else's junk. Resell some of it to make even more.

    Make Extra Money Selling Your Stuff

    Of all the ways to make extra money, selling your stuff is one of the easiest and fastest ways to earn. Here are a few ideas to help you make money from the stuff you already have.

    68) Have a Garage Sale

    Selling your stuff in a garage sale is an easy way to make money fast. Gather together all of the stuff you don't want, set up a few tables, and you've got yourself a money-making sale!

    69) Create an Online Store

    Have an artistic side but don't know how to make extra money using it? Maybe you've created a great product you want to sell. Try opening an online store with Shopify. Thousands of people have made a killing by starting an online store, and you can too.

    70) Sell on eBay

    eBay is another great place to sell your stuff. Find old clothes, artwork, or gym equipment and put it up for sale. You can even find great deals at garage sales with the intent of reselling them for a profit. Then, let people buy it outright or auction it off to the highest bidder.

    71) Sell on Craigslist

    Don't have enough stuff for a garage sale? Try selling it on Craigslist instead. We've bought and sold thousands of dollars worth of stuff on this free site. Plus, you're usually selling to people in your own area, so you get your cash fast.

    72) Sell Old Clothes to Secondhand Stores

    One of the best ways to make money off of old clothes is to sell them to secondhand stores. There are several national brands, but chances are good you have a local store in your area. Women's clothing typically goes over best, but sometimes you can sell men's stuff too. We prefer stores that pay in advance rather than on consignment.

    73) Sell Old Furniture on Consignment

    Sell your gently used furniture on consignment at a consignment store. You won't get paid until it sells, but it's an easy way to make a few bucks. Of course, you can also stick items like these on eBay or Craigslist if you don't want to wait.

    74) Collect and Sell Scrap Metal

    Have you ever seen those guys driving around with a giant pile of metal in the back of their truck? Most of them are collecting and selling scrap metal. Search for free stuff at garage sales, on curbs, and on Craigslist. Pick it up, haul it away, and resell it for a profit.

    75) Write a Book

    These days, you don't need a publishing company to publish a book. You self-publish through Amazon, then sell it for a profit. They offer three options: Createspace (for print books), Kindle Direct Publishing (for Kindle books), and ACX (for audiobooks). Learn more about Amazon Self-Publishing here.

    76) Sell Coins

    There are still plenty of coin collectors around, and you can make money if you know what you're doing. I used to work with a guy who bought and sold rare coins on the side, and he made a nice profit.

    77) Sell Legos

    If you want to know how to make extra money, find a way to sell items that remind people of their childhood. For instance, my brother-in-law found a nice niche market selling Legos. He acquires complete sets at garage sales or online, packages them, and sells them to Lego lovers of all stripes. People will pay good money for nostalgia, and you can be the one to profit.

    78) Sell Your Electronics with Decluttr

    Decluttr is a great place to sell your old electronics. Make money selling your old CDs, cell phones, games, books, and more. Clean the house, sell your junk, and make some money!

    Ways to Make Extra Money at Your Job

    When searching for ways to make extra money, don't forget to consider the job you already have. Here are a few tips.

    79) Ask for a Raise

    Want to make more money at your job? Simple. Ask for a raise. Be confident, and present your boss with reasons why you deserve it. Then ask.

    80) Work Overtime

    If you have the opportunity to work overtime, do it. You'll make time-and-a-half which can really ad up over the course of a year.

    81) Work Holidays

    Nobody wants to work holidays, so this is a great opportunity to make extra money. Again, you'll make time-and-a-half, which is pretty sweet.

    82) Do Things Others Won't

    Every job has things people hate doing. Learn what those things are, get good at them, and offer to handle them for more money.

    83) Hit Your Bonuses

    Lots of jobs, particularly sales jobs, offer incentives for meeting goals. Make sure to work your butt off and cash in on those bonuses.

    84) Learn a New Skill

    One of the best ways to make more money at your job is to acquire new skills. Look for new things you can learn to improve your value to the company. Acquire those skills, then ask for more money. If your boss refuses, you'll be more marketable and may be able to command more money elsewhere.

    85) Take on More Responsibilities

    In many jobs, the more responsibility you have, the more money you'll make. Offer to lead projects, manage schedules, and take things off your bosses plate. Then, when it's time for your review, show them all the new responsibilities you've taken on….and ask for a raise.

    86) Make yourself Indispensable

    Bosses love it when you make their job easier. They also love it when you help them make more money. Find ways to make yourself indispensable, and more money will usually follow.

    Ideas for Part-Time Jobs

    Looking for ways to make extra money but don't know how? Whether it's making money online or your own side job, here are 99 ideas for getting started.If you'd rather not work for yourself, you can always pick up a part-time job. Here are a few suggestions for finding part-time work.

    87) Wait Tables

    Working as a server is a perfect part-time job. Schedules are generally flexible, plus you can work nights and weekends. If you're good at it, you'll find yourself rolling in tips.

    88) Bartender

    The same goes for bartending. If you're good with people, enjoy crowds, and don't mind working nights and weekends, being a bartender is a great part-time gig.

    89) Valet

    Working part-time as a valet is another  job where you'll earn extra money through tips. Many restaurants, hotels, and other business hire valets on a part-time basis.

    90) Deliver Newspapers

    If you're a morning person, getting an early morning paper route can be a lucrative venture. Newspapers are hiring all the time, so check with your local paper for openings.

    91) Unload Trucks

    Another early morning/late night gig is unloading shipments at various retail outlets. All types of stores need help getting things off the truck, but big box stores and couriers are a great place to start looking.

    92) Work Retail

    One of the best ways to make money part-time is working at a retail store. These stores always seem to be hiring for night and weekend shifts. Just be sure not to blow all of your extra cash using your in-store discount!

    93) Stock Shelves

    Stocking shelves may seem boring, but it's one way to line your pockets with extra money. Grocery stores and bookstores are great places to start looking for work.

    94) Do Temp Work

    Office buildings are always hiring cheap labor for mundane tasks. I worked as a full-time temp for two years, but you can find part-time work as well. Check with your local temp agency for openings.

    95) Work on a Farm

    If you don't mind hard work and getting a little dirty, working on a farm is an excellent way to make extra money. There are all types of farms, and each place may need you to perform different tasks. Back in the day, you could find me working part-time at a pheasant farm or bailing straw up the road.

    96) Become a Lifeguard

    Does sitting by a pool and making extra money sound fun? Then becoming a lifeguard may be right for you. Get the proper training, and you could start making a nice side income right away.

    97) Work at a School

    Substitute teaching is a perfect opportunity to make a few extra bucks. In some states, you don't even have to be licensed as a teacher. Just apply for a permit and look for jobs in your area. Additionally, schools are always looking for part-time assistants and aides. Check with your local school for openings.

    98) Drive a School Bus

    Driving a school bus is practically the definition of part-time work. Get paid to drive your bus in the morning, work your regular day job, then drive again in the afternoon. If you want to make even more, sign up to drive to events like athletic competitions and field trips.

    99) Coach Sports

    If you enjoy sports and like being around kids, you can get paid to be a coach. Of course, you must be available for practices and competitions. Check with your local schools and club teams for openings.

    100) Officiate Sports

    Don't have the time to coach but still want to make extra money through sports? Become an official. Sports officials are needed at all levels of competition, and you'll get paid to be a part of the action.

    101) Work at a Hotel

    Hotels hire a lot of people, and they're a great place to look for extra work. From front-desk help to cleaning, hotels offer a bunch of ways to make extra money part-time.

    102) Provide Entertainment

    Can you sing or dance? Do you have an interest in entertaining others? Find part-time work with various entertainment companies in your area. I've been paid to act, sing, and make appearances as different characters at local events. I also used to work as a traveling wedding DJ for a local radio station. It was a lot of fun, and I made money doing it.
