Case Study 1: Online Surveys
In looking at different ways to make money from home, I couldn’t overlook online surveys. They may not allow you to quit your day job, but they can allow you to make some much-needed extra money. See what Carol has to say about her experiences with online surveys over the last few years:
Unfortunately, work from home scams are everywhere in today’s online world. Why? Well, people are always looking for ways to quit their day job and work from home. During a recession, people are looking for convenient ways to supplement their income, and during an economic boom, people dream of leveraging financial success into even greater success in the form of retiring from their jobs, working from home, and enjoying financial freedom. Thus, there will never be a shortage of work from home scams.

Case Study: Mechanical Turk
Amazon’s “Mechanical Turk” service allows you to work on all sorts of various outsourced projects at your own leisure. It’s a great way to earn part time money from home, and if you’re particularly ambitious you can earn a lot more. It’s a free service to use, and you get started by signing up to work on HITs (Human Intelligence Tasks). But I’ll let Joan explain the rest…
The easiest ways of making money online involve trading your time for money, just like in a regular job. There are plenty of others methods of making money online, but many take a lot of effort and a lot of expertise to implement. If you’re not already an expert internet marketer, one of your best bets is to look for people who will pay you to do relatively simple tasks from your computer, like data entry, online surveys, online research, writing blog entries, etc. This makes sense, because it’s kind of like the difference between working at a job for earned income and starting a business. If you start a business, you have to spend a lot of time initially on becoming an expert in your field, and you also have to spend a great deal of start-up capital on product development, marketing, etc. Usually, it takes a long time to start turning a profit.
