#PocketChange

Everyone could use a little bit of extra pocket change.

1. Blogging

You can get paid to write blogs just like these ones. In fact, you can even try this website Vocal.

2. Swagbucks

It wasn't that long ago that you could only be able to redeem Swagbucks by getting gift cards, but now you can get your Swagbucks put directly into your pay-pall. Which means you can actually earn a real income by filling out surveys online. Well... or at least some beer money.

All you have to do is make an account and fill out surveys.

Once you have earned 2500 swag bucks, you can get $25 Canadian put into your Paypall account.

Other Ways to Make Money on Swagbucks Are:

  • Playing Free Games
  • Spending Money on Games
  • Buying Gifts and Giftcards

3. Survey Junkie

Survey Junkie is a lot like Swagbucks but it's much easier to use. It's easier to start and has shorter surveys. Keep in mind that you need to make a minimum of $10 (1000 points) in order to redeem them.

4. Fiverr

There are a bunch of ways you can make money on Fiverr. Making videos, proofreading, writing articles, custom photoshop work, drawing custom work, and even selling handmade jewellery.

First you make a 'Gig' and wait for someone to buy it. This part is easier said than done. Once the customer is happy with what they have they click done. Then after waiting two weeks, because Fiverr says so, you get money either put into your Paypall or directly into your bank account.

You only get $4 out of every $5 earned, meaning that Fiver takes the huge amount of 20 percent. Also, you have to wait two weeks before you get the money. However, Fiverr is still a completely legit way to make money. If you know how to use photoshop or have another cool skills. Fiverr is worth checking out.

5. RedBubble

If you haven't heard of RedBubble before, I am actually more than happy to explain. You create artwork and then upload it onto the website. Last, but not least, you edit how it looks on a bunch of different items. RedBubble has t-shirts, posters, wall tapestries, cellphone cases and even clocks.

Once someone buys an item with your artwork on it, you get a small percentage. How much you make depends on the item and it depends on how much you've set your revenue for each artwork.

The great thing about RedBubble is that you don't have to wait until you make $35 to get your money. Every month, usually on the 14th, whatever you have earned just gets put into your PayPall account. Last month, I made $2... it's better than nothing.

6. Society6

Society6 is a lot like RedBubble... but more expensive... and they sell furniture.

Society6 has more items that RedBubble does. They have backpacks, shoes, little acrylic boxes, and shower curtains.

7. Threadless

Threadless is another website that sells your art on stuff like RedBubble and Society6 does. It doesn't hurt to try them all, you don't want to put all your eggs in one basket.

8. ShutterStock

You don't have to be a professional photographer to sell stock photos. In fact, you can even make pixel art to sell on there. You probably already have photos that could be sold that are just sitting in the gallery on your phone.

Like all these other websites, you have to wait until you have earned $35 before you can take any money out.

9. Etsy

Etsy is generally for homemade items that get mailed to the customer. However, you can also sell pdf. and jpg. items. This means that you sell poster art, knitting patterns and other digital content. Which means that you have unlimited stock once you design something once.

Also, the cost to post items for sale on Etsy is very cheap!

10. Making Your Own Website!

This one takes a bit of time and dedication to accomplish, but the outcome can be very rewarding. Once you have a following for your own website you can get ads put on your website and earn money for every view. Most people make their own blog.

Google Adsense

The easiest way to make money from ads on your website is by using Google's Adsense. If you already have a website, give it a try!
