First, you need to create your blog, write some useful information on regular basis, promote it online and once you receive good traffic on your blog, you make money with Google AdSense, affiliate marketing and many other ways.

3. Drive for Uber or Lyft

You can make money fast by driving for Uber or Lyft during free time daily. A research by loan company Earnest, reveals median earnings of a Lyft driver are US $210 per month.

The highest was recorded at average US$377 per month. Uber drivers make about US$155 per month on average, with highest averaging US$364. These figures may vary according to your location and hours spent as cabbie.

4. Sell Old Stuff

Selling old stuff can help you make lots of money fast. There are two ways to sell old stuff. Empty out your closets and storerooms for stuff you are no longer using or lying redundant.

There are always takers for such old stuff that could be lying unused at your home.

The other is buying old stuff from people in your locality and community, refurbishing it and putting up for sale.

Other than Craigslist, there are several excellent other websites where you can sell old stuff. Try LetGo and OfferUp. Also, post this stuff on Poshmark, ThreadUp and TheRealReal.

A feature on CNBC Money news website carries some excellent tips on how to go about selling old stuff and make money fast.

5. Make Money with YouTube

If you need quick money & fame then YouTube is a great platform. You can make money by uploading interesting videos on YouTube.

It's much easier than before to start your own YouTube channel and make fast money with this. You need a good quality camera, a video editing software and a mic to create videos.

There are so many YouTube video ideas for your channel. You need to promote your YouTube videos to get views and subscribers. You make more money if you get lots of video views and more subscribers to your channel.

Even one single viral video can make you rich.

6. Pet Sitting

Most people have a passion for keeping pets – but they also have to work to make a living. This often leaves them in a bind – where do they leave their pets when they leave for work?

You could provide them with a solution to this problem by starting a pet sitting service.

It’s like a crèche for pets – where you will look after the pooches, cats (and maybe the odd turtle) while their owners are out. No big investment needed for this.

The only thing you might need is a fairly large house and a love for animals. If you’re feeling adventurous – dog walking – is another service which could make you some extra dough.

7. Do Tasks with TaskRabbit

Are you willing to perform odd tasks and errands to make money fast?

Register with TaskRabbit.

This website helps people find help for almost any task such as cleaning houses, sweeping stairs, mowing lawn, delivering stuff fast or even rushing passports to travelers that forgot to carry them to airport.

You can earn between $20 to $40 per hour, depending upon the task. However, if you can gather a team and offer services as contractor, it is possible to make $7,000 to $10,000 per month through TaskRabbit.

8. Affiliate Marketing

There is huge potential of making money with affiliate marketing. If your goal is $100 to $200 per day then I will highly recommend this.

There are thousands of online companies that provide affiliate program. You can join their affiliate program and promote it on internet to make money.

I promote more than 20 affiliate programs through my blog MoneyConnexion. Affiliate program is not my main source of income but still I make $5000+ every month with affiliate marketing.

Here are the exact steps you need to make money with affiliate marketing-

  1. Find the best affiliate programs that you can promote.
  2. Join it
  3. Promote it on your blog, social sites, through newsletter or other methods
  4. When someone makes a purchase or even signup on merchant sites, you get paid.

There are dozens of well established companies with whom you can sign-up as network marketer.

11. Become a Mystery Shopper

Mystery shoppers are also called ghost shoppers. This does not mean you look for mysteries or spooks. Instead, mystery shoppers are hired by market research companies to visit stores or online retailers.

They act as regular shoppers while keeping an eye on detail such as customer service, array of merchandise sold, labeling, pricing, ease of use and various other parameters that are vital to running a successful business.

Mystery shopping companies pay you well for this trip to a store and the shopping. You have to write an honest review about your experience. Often, these companies allow you to retain the shopped stuff.

12. Article Writing

Article writing is also called Content Writing. If you are passionate about something, go ahead and begin writing about it. Unlike journalism, article writing or content writing does not involve following complex style guides.

Instead, you can express yourself freely in the language of your choice. Of course, you cannot use foul language. Good quality articles or content are in demand by companies for their websites and bloggers.

You can get paid to write articles about anything- from latest movies to fashion, cooking, politics or even something as complex as searching for extraterrestrial intelligence.

13. Buy/Sell Cryptocurrency

This one is listed last because there is an element of risk attached to doing this. Cryptocurrency is virtual money which is traded online.

Guess you must have heard of Bitcoins right? There are thousands of cryptocurrencies out there but only a handful which are coveted and bring in the big bucks.

If you have the right kind, they could be worth hundreds of dollars each. But beware they tend to be volatile (in value terms) and are in fact considered illegal in many countries.

But if you want to get in on the buzz surrounding them you can checkout online sites like Coinbase, for example, which buy and sell digital currency and then take a call.

14. Part Time Jobs

Part time jobs are the safest and most legit ways to make money fast. You can search for jobs that match your skill on reputed websites such as Indeed or Upwork.

Further, most recruitment portals also carry advertisements for part-time workers in almost every sector. Utilize some of your free time daily to indulge in moonlighting.

It allows you to upgrade skills required to retain that professional edge while earning you extra money fast.

15. Donate Plasma

It is possible to make a quick $20 to $50 every time you donate plasma. Under existing Food and Drug Administration laws, a healthy female or male can donate plasma only twice a week.

Plasma collection centers will draw your blood, separate the plasma and transfuse the remaining portion of the blood back into your body. The process can take as much as an hour.

There are very strict guidelines for plasma donors and collection companies. Above all, it requires excellent health to make money fast in this manner.

16. Enlist for Online Surveys

If you have time to spare, you could register with genuine online survey sites which will pay you decent money to fill out online survey questionnaires. They are very easy to do and should not take you more than a few minutes to complete.

All you need to do is register with tried-and-tested survey sites like Opinion Outpost, Survey Junkie or Swagbucks Surveys and start answering questions for big brands looking to gather some useful market intel.

Then there are some other companies which will pay you only for playing an online game or installing an app.

17. mTurk / Clickworker

Clickworker is an online resource that provides companies and individuals with freelance or part-time workers to perform small online tasks.

Such work includes translations, writing, editing, researching and data processing, among others. The official website of Clickworker claims its members make average $9 per hour.

Amazon mTurk enables merchants to find people to complete tasks that require human intelligence.

18. Take a Personal Loan

Taking a personal loan in the US or anywhere in the world is no easy task. It involves fine scrutiny of your income sources and credit scores. However, if you qualify, take a personal loan.

We do not recommend taking a personal loan for spending or splurging on luxury: they come with very high interest rates. Instead, invest money from a personal loan in some very attractive and legit schemes.

This will make your money grow while buffering the interest you pay. Take a personal loan only if you are fully confident of repaying it on time.

A personal loan can mar your credit ratings. Defaulting on installments can land you in serious legal trouble.

19. Provide Answer with JustAnswer

Studying nitty-gritties of this intricate but very profitable business to make money fast during spare time. It requires some investment and sound knowledge of how to select domain names, buying and selling.

21. Buy and Sell Websites

Buying and selling websites is somewhat similar to the domain business mentioned above. In this business, you will buy old and expired websites from their owners.

Some people also sell running websites that have excellent names but do not receive much traffic or hits due to any reason. Buying websites has some inherent advantages.

Since the website is already up and running, it would be hosted on some server. Additionally, a website will also have some Google rankings.

Whoever buys it from you can be assured of getting traffic since the website is already known. All it would require is excellent content and search engine optimization (SEO) to bring it on top of Google search.

22. Become a Freelance Proofreader

Are you an English-language expert with a serious eye for typos and a grammar Nazi to boot? Do you aim for perfection every time you write or read something? If yes, you have some serious skills to make money on the side as a proofreader.

Some online sites pay as much as 35 cents/per page for freelance proofreaders. Even at an average pace of reading around 50 pages per hour – you could make as much as $18 – per hour.
