Student
life can be sweet. However, being a student – unless you’re from a
wealthy family – means being in debt and living month to month. Money is
not everything, but having extra cash is always a good thing,
especially if you don’t have to be somewhere at a certain time, spend
money on transportation, and spend endless hours on public
transportation. Here are 3 sure ways you can earn money online as a
student.
Students can write articles to earn money online
Each student
has a speciality, a niche. It doesn’t necessarily have to be the
subject you’re studying. One simple Google search will show you there
are thousands of freelance jobs on the Internet. Potential clients don’t
necessarily want you to be experienced. They just want to know that
you’re willing to do the job, write moderately well, and get the job
done - with the results they want. Half the people who write guest posts
on my blog (for college and other institutions which pay them to guest
post) are university students.
If you want
your writing work to take flight, start up a blog to publicise what you
do, display the quality of your work, and to tell potential clients your
services are for hire.
Students can blog to earn money online
Not everyone
can write well and get results. We all have our talents and some people
are better at the tech and marketing aspects, rather than the actual
writing. In fact, some of the best writers are rubbish at the tech stuff
and vice versa.
Blogging
doesn’t have to involve the highest quality of writing. You just have to
know how to write moderately well, write about interesting things, get
an audience and convert this audience into paying customers. Whatever
your niche, photography, sport, crafts, jewellery, you can blog about it
and include Google ads, Amazon ads and affiliate links on your blog. If
your tech skills are good enough and you know about SEO, you could be
making a living from ads and affiliate links within 6 months of starting
your new blog.
Students can do work on Fiverr jobs
I’ve ordered
my share of Fiverr gigs. In case you haven’t heard of Fiverr, it’s a
site you can set up an account to do anything for a payment of $5.00.
There are many students there and there’s no limit to what you can do,
or how many gigs you can set up. Your imagination is the only limit. Can
you sing? Then you can set up gigs to sing greetings (in specific ways)
and get paid for each one. You can draw, do tech work, blog work,
write, edit, dance, create, and a whole lot more. Look at the homepage
on the Fiverr site to get some ideas of what other people are doing
there.
You
may already have a part-time job, but if you can do any of the above
well, you won’t need to leave your home in order to make a good
part-time living (if not a full-time living). Have you done any of these
as a student? Have you got any advice to add in relation to these 3
groups of online earning potentials?
