Ways to Carve Out a Living Online
As I’m sure you can imagine, living life on the road with 3 kids poses many challenges, education, safety, stability and the most important of all, money. My husband is fortunate enough to have a job where he can work from anywhere in the World so long as he has an internet connection and whilst I do spend much of my time with the kids, we realized that it was important that I earned as well. The internet offered the best opportunity for this as it meant that we could travel anywhere and still work.
If you are looking to make a living online then here are just some of the ways in which I’ve managed to do so during my time on the road.
Blogging
I should probably start with the most obvious, blogging, I started this blog as soon as we left home, the main idea was to let family and friends know what was happening with us and I soon realized that I could make some money from the blog. Advertisers are more than happy to work with blogs and pay them money to use space on the website, you can also monetize your blog with things like Adsense which pay you for how many visits you get. Just remember to keep your subject matter specific, generally writing about your life will interest few people, keep the content quality high and regular and be active on social media to gain your following.
Gambling
Back home I used to love a visit to the casino, slots, blackjack, poker, you name it, once I hit the road I started gambling online and it become a nice little earner. Once great site that has a lot of the latest offers is www.boomtownbingo.com, these guys have a massive range of games to choose from and I found some of the best deals to be on their site. The key is not only knowing what you are doing, but also not to be reckless with your stakes. There are loads of offers online that give you promotions like welcome offers and free slot plays, you can get more free no deposit slots and know more about online gambling with just a quick search online, there are some great companies out there.
Online Surveys
This is not a huge earner but it is consistent and guaranteed and if I was to add up all of the money that I’ve made over the years, this has without question been my steadiest income. In a nutshell, private companies and governments pay for people to fill out surveys about their lifestyles and their likes and dislikes. This information is used to know about demographic behaviors. Your job is simply to fill out these surveys and you will get paid a few dollars for each one. The work is incredibly simple, you just need to answer multiple choice questions and those few dollars can quickly add up to give you a pot of cash at the end of the month. On average I make around $75-100 per month doing this, it doesn’t sound like much but in reality I only dedicate a few hours per week to this and I can always rely on it.
