10 Ways To Make Additional Income From Home

Looking for ways to make extra money but don’t know where to start?

The last few years have taught me a thing or two about making some extra cash from basic past times and hobbies such as playing mobile games, shopping referrals, taking walks, submitting receipts, e.t.c. So, if you would like a tip or two, continue reading how you can turn even switching bank accounts into a small money spinner.

1. SWAGBUCKS.

Swagbucks is a free website and app that allows you to earn money by doing various sponsored activities online. It functions mainly as an online rewards platform and membership community that offers cashback and gift cards for completing surveys, watching videos, signing up for free offers, online shopping, and more.You can also withdraw your money earned through Paypal or an Online Mastercard.

Invite your friends and family by email to earn 300 swagbucks plus 10% lifetime earnings for each account you refer.

I personally earn at least 1000 swagbucks a week answering surveys and 1400 swagbucks earns you a cool £10. In the last two months I would say I cashed out about £40 without trying too hard. It's a productive way to while away time on your phone while you wait on the bus or to be called in for that doctor's appointment.

2. FIVERR.

Nobody likes to waste time. That's why Fiverr empowers entrepreneurs to connect with pros who can help them do more with less.

Fiverr is an online marketplace for freelance services with low-cost providers from all over the world. The idea behind their brand is to streamline the process of hiring or getting hired as a freelancer.

There are two ways to view the site, as a freelancer or as a buyer.As a buyer, you can browse through the category pages, or use the search tool to find a Gig you are looking to purchase. Once you hit search on something like a translator for example, you will find that a list of translators pop up;

3. VOCAL.

Earn money each time your stories are read.

Vocal is an all-in-one platform where you can share your stories and build an audience.

Vocal is a contributor platform where content creators can write and post articles on just about any topic. There are currently 37 different “communities” that group stories by niche, including tech, health, relationships, politics, photography, career, pets, and beauty.Vocal pays contributors based on how many reads their articles get. The feature is similar to Medium’s Partner Program, except that you get paid for all reads, regardless of whether or not the person reading your story is a Vocal member or not.

4. SOCIETY6

Society6 is a site on the Internet where talented artists from all over the world get the opportunity to present their pieces of art and hopefully sell the online in order to make a profit from their talent.

Trading your arts and design on this site is not so complicated. First, you need to join the site and make a profile. After that you need to upload your arts and designs. Afterwards, you need to set a price for your goods. The site offers you a base price for each size of the work from and you have to choose the price at which you want to sell your goods like society6 leggings, hoodies, mug, prints etc. The site is not only about you. You need to show your interest and appreciations for the other artists and users of the site by clicking “promote” on their work and you also need to follow them, comment on their works to keep updated with their activity.

As a shopper, When you refer a friend who then makes their first purchase on Society6, they get $15 off and so do you. Best of all, it works in addition to all on-site promotions.

5. PHONE CONTRACT REFERRAL WITH THREE NETWORK.

THREE has one of the best plans in phone and line contracts that I have found and if you choose to join them, you can earn £80 per person introducing each of your friends or family to using one of their products or packages for devices and internet.

6. TRANSCRIBING.

Transcribers may earn anywhere between $15-$30 per hour with work that only requires creating written versions of audio or video recordings. If you’re a fast typer, consider getting projects from websites like GoTranscript or Speechpad.

I personally have used Rev.com and had quite a good experience with them earning $80 my first week however, to be honest you can get fired for not being at least 95% accurate. I fell below the mark hence got fired. oops!

Rev accepts Transcription and Caption freelancers from the following countries:

Australia , Canada , Ireland , Mexico , Netherlands , New Zealand , South Africa , United Kingdom , The United States*

*Note: excludes California

7. CIRCA5000.

Circa5000 is the new brand name for what was previously known as tickr. All the investments remain unchanged, as does the ethical focus of the investment platform. However, the name and look of the platform have changed.

You can begin your investment with as little as £5 and earn £15 more (and 2 trees for planet earth) for each individual you invite to the platform.

Circa5000 does something different from all the other investment platforms out there. It allows you to invest your money in your own future, whilst also investing in the future of the planet. It’s called impact investing. An opportunity to grow your wealth in a socially conscious way, in order to support the businesses that are leading the way in making a positive global impact.

8. SELL ON MARKETPLACES.

Popular marketplaces include:

Etsy , Amazon , eBay ,Handshake , Mercado Libre , Rakuten , Facebook Marketplace and VarageSale, Vinted, Gumtree, e.t.c.

Eventually, you’ll want to diversify your business by building your own site—you don’t have to choose one or the other. The big advantage is that the profit is yours: there are little or no fees to pay on sales and no rules to abide by but your own.

9. WRITE AND PUBLISH A KINDLE EBOOK.

Even though I have loads of ideas and content to publish I have not gotten around to publishing something that I am sure people want to read. However, if you are daring enough to write the things the rest of us are afraid to think or say, this might be the perfect gap in the 'make money from home' marketplace for you to fill.

With the Kindle store, anyone can publish an eBook and make money on Amazon.

10. REVIEW MUSIC ONLINE.

If you love music, make it your business by reviewing unsigned bands and artists online for cash with Slicethepie.

It can take a while to build up your reputation but some users of the site have said that they earn £40 a month. This may not sound like much, but if it's something you enjoy then it shouldn't be hard work and is another thing for your CV. Money you earn will be in $US but anyone can sign up and review.

So, these are ten ways you can make some extra cash to spend on your daily lunch at work or that new top you have had your sights on for the last couple weeks. With a little extra effort and ingenuity, you can always makes a lot more money from these small avenues.

Good luck!
