Ideas for Me to Earn Extra Money?

Ady · 09-26-2008, 05:12 PM

Hi guys, i have been a member for a while but i dont really say much!

I am 22, and a student, which means its pretty hard for me to earn money. i have a job but i find it really hard to study the day and work evenings and weekends!

just wondering if anybody has any ideas, a way i can earn say £100 a week, just to help out.

i was thinking like buying pallets and selling the items on ebay, but i dont know how profitable it can be.

anybody in the same position? or anyone earning by selling on ebay?

any advice would be much appreciated

I wouldn't go with ebay if I were you. So many people are trying and failing. You risk losing money not making it.

There isn't really an easy way to keep earning £100 a week. I suggest setting up your own site and putting google ads up on it. (Email me: crutchy_1991@hotmail.com if you need help with other advertising and stuff, I have a few sites that are quite good etc)

Or create a blog on a site like blogger.com and earn revenue from ads on that.

These are probably going to be the best ways.

Bare in mind setting up a site will have a cost of hosting and setting up a domain name, but in the long run you can earn more money from this.

You think it's making money when you're 22? Try making money when you're 13...

But I imagine you are doing alright for yourself at 13. I wasn't making a penny for myself at 13. I only started to think about when I was almost 16.

And I haven't really made any money. Well a substantial amount of money that is worth having. HAHA!

But I am in the process of setting up a website but I don't know whether it'll work etc.

EDIT! CHEERS TRIP! For joining the high paying PTC! That everyone, well most, seem to think will be a scam. I'm trying to get as many referrals as possible so I can find out as soon as possible whether this site is a scam or not!

I am really reluctant to go down the gambling route.. one false move and i will be in deep doodoo!

Turncoat, interesting idea with the website. aren't there sites which give free web space?
I am sort of an artist so i could start a website with my arty stuff on it i suppose. How much is it possible to realistically earn from having ads on a site?

hi ady,take it from me dont sell pallets of stuff on ebay,i take it you probably mean high st store returns. most of it is rubbish and your profit is always tied up in the % of broken stuff you will definately get.
check out the wholesale section on ebay to see how cheap this gear is but most of it i wouldnt touch with a bargepole.
you could checkout dropshipping sites who will do all the work for you but NEVER pay to sign up,this can be quite good but the trouble with ebay is there is always someone selling it cheaper,but if you increase your rep and feedback sales will increase regardless if you are a couple of quid dearer than your competitor.try to find something different - there are 1000s of mp3 and phones etc . hope this helps

A good way to make money is to make a website with a really good domain name, get some revenue and traffic, and sell the website at a profit, its also known as flipping. Or you can get a really active site togeather, advertise it at PTC websites and SEO, then get an affiliate product and some google adsense and yahoo ads and then advertise them on your web page. Make sure to have a lot of traffic before doing so cause it may not be that profitable. It depends on what your comission on your sales are and how well they're doing. You can earn a lot of money by flipping or ads. I'm 13 year's old too and I've earned money by doing this. Got 400$ in my paypal xD.

It is a impossible to say how much you can be earning. It all depends on the amount you get per click or impression and how many visitors you have to your site and what you click through rate is.

And yes you can host a website for free but this will always look less professional and some of them will already have their own ads up on it so it will look tacky if you ad more of your own ads.

Thats why I suggest you look into getting your own domain and earning from that.

Good Luck!!
