Advice for newcomers

I originally posted this as a comment but figured it might help more people if I made a new thread:

Based on the advice I've got from here and /r/beermoney, here are my suggestions for people getting started:

TeeSpring: if you're moderately good with Photoshop, this is the place for you. Even if you're not good with Photoshop, you can find a designer on /r/slavelabour or on Fiverr to do your work for you. You can design T-shirts for free (unless you want to hire a designer to do it for you. Usually about $5 per design) and will get paid for each one sold. For promotion and other techniques, look at forum posts/ blog posts online. Usually, people use Facebook ads to target and can make great sales that way. REF | Non

Learn how to code: you can make a decent amount by web design or by creating apps. Udacity, Udemy, Coursera, EdX, FreeCodeCamp, Codecademy, The Odin Project, etc. As you can see, there are a ton of resources for you if you decide that you want to go this route.

Create a blog: get your own domain and get some cheap hosting. Blogging will be slow at first, but if you keep at it, you can gather a nice fanbase and make some nice money via ads. Make sure it's unique and not about something that everybody else is blogging about.

Postloop: this is good for making 5 bucks a day. Usually takes me around 2 hours to get there. All you have to do is apply (fairly simple, just make 10 quality posts on their forum and at least 2 new threads) and make forum posts to get paid. You're usually restricted to 5 posts per forum and get about 2 cents for each small post. Not great, but it definitely adds up. REF | Non

Clickworker: I personally haven't used this but I've heard you can make great money from this just working from home. I've heard it's usually around $6 to $10 an hour once you build yourself up. Not 100% sure on that. Hopefully someone else can chime in.

Amazon Mturk: similar to clickworker, I believe. You get paid to complete tasks but it's quite low-paying at the beginning. I personally haven't used this either, so maybe somebody with more experience can help you.

Leapforce: Leapforce is a "true" online job, I guess you could say. You have to study and pass a relatively difficult test, but once you make it, it's great. I haven't used this either :p

Listverse: get paid to make a list of top 10s with at least 1500 words. $100 for each list if it's accepted by the staff. Need I say more?

Cracked: same as Listverse, pretty much

Surveys: I like surveys because they're usually pretty easy and can pay decently. Swagbucks has some nice surveys if you can qualify. If you really wanted to, you could lie about your info to get more surveys. I did that as a teen but eventually got banned from taking their gold surveys after they found out that my responses were inconsistent. REF | Non

Rev.com: I haven't used this yet, but I've heard that it pays nicely for transcription. There are a few rules that you have to memorize first, and then you can transcribe test audio to apply.

Chegg/InstaEDU: get paid $20 an hour to tutor. It's pretty easy to get accepted, but a little hard to find kids to tutor once you're there. You need to be good at a variety of subjects for this job though. I like it but haven't gotten many students yet. Other people say they have students all the time. It really depends, I guess. REF | Non

Flip: buy low or import from China and sell high in the States. This takes a bit of trial and error and a nice bit of funds, but you can make a killing if you do it right. Check out /r/flipping to get expert opinions.

/r/slavelabour: if you're good at Photoshop, coding, or writing, this sub is excellent. People pay nicely and are very friendly in general over there. Keep an eye out for new postings.

Upwork: Freelance of all sorts. See here for job listings. Just make sure you don't give out extremely personal info like your SSN without thoroughly researching the hiring company first.

Revenue Sharing sites: I have yet to use these, but I've heard you can make a decent amount from these sites. Make sure you do not treat these as investments however, as there is a high risk involved, but if you're careful and act smart, you could make some money.

Forex trading: this requires you to have a bit of moolah as well, but if you have the time to learn the game, you could do OK for yourself.

Vlogging/ YouTube Channel: if you are outspoken and can create unique, quality content, then YouTube is perfect for you. Once you build a decent fanbase and get approved by YouTube, you can put ads on your channel and rack in some revenue. You can also promote your blog or combine this with TeeSpring to promote your T-shirts, or other products.

Blogjob: No, I didn't say what you think I said... Blogjob. This is pretty slow, but if you can write a lot per day, then you can easily make upwards of $200 a month.

Fiverr: if you can come up with something creative, then you can post it to Fiverr and get $4 for every sale you make on your service.

Bing Rewards: if you use Bing as your search engine, you can make around $10 to $20 a month just from searching and doing their offers. It's not great, but it's not bad either.

Instagc: kind of like swagbucks, just a little different. REF | Non

Gifthulk: same concept as Instagc and swagbucks REF | Non

If you combine more than one of these things and can think creatively, you have the potential to make a nice sum of money. Best of luck! Last but not least, please make sure you check the sidebar both here and over at /r/beermoney, etc.

If you would like to use any of my referral links, I'd be grateful. I'll edit this post if I remember any more resources.
