A huge number of people every day wonder how to make money on the Internet. There are many ways to make such money, there are fraudulent schemes. Each option has its own strengths and weaknesses. I want to share a story about how I made money on the World Wide Web. Work on the Internet attracted me because I can decide when and how much I will work. The need to care for a 1.5-year-old child has become a serious argument in order to venture on this type of earnings.
Enter captcha
To begin with, I decided to try making money on captcha input. It seemed to me that this is very easy, does not require special knowledge and skills, and brings even a small but stable income. CAPTCHA is a security code in the form of a character set or image. It is needed in order to identify who the user of the system is: a computer or a person, and prevents various spam messages from being sent. It was necessary to recognize the captcha and enter this code.
In reality, it turned out that this work is very dreary and ungrateful. You do not always have time to enter the code, you lose time on recognition, as a result, you lose money. In addition, for a large number of errors you can be blocked.
As a result: I lost several months on this, I earned pennies, self-doubt and the possibility of earning on the Internet. But the need for money made me look for new ways.
Copywriting
The next option for making money online is copywriting. Copywriting is writing articles for websites. I always loved to work with the word, once even dreamed of writing a book. There are several exchanges on the Internet for writing custom texts and selling finished articles.
Having registered on two content exchanges, I began to work. To my surprise and, I will not hide, pleasure, very soon customers began to praise me, and some of them offered constant cooperation. Now I'm not looking for orders - customers find me themselves.
The disadvantages of copywriting include the fact that you first need to earn yourself a rating, and on some exchanges undergo mandatory initial testing and literacy testing. But this is necessary, because on the Internet there are so many illiterate and frankly weak texts. In addition, it doesn’t take much time to write an article, but to fit a certain percentage of uniqueness that is required by the customer. For some reason, I often met customers requiring 100% uniqueness, and this is quite difficult to achieve.
As for income, it is directly proportional to the number of articles written. It is not always possible to find time with a small child, so I had to refuse to cooperate with some customers. But, as they say, you can make money on hairpins, hairpins, tights.
Earnings on culinary sites
In addition to writing articles on topics that are close to me, I tried to make money on culinary sites. In fact, this is a kind of copywriting. You just need to write an article on the step-by-step preparation of a dish, and provide it with unique photographs. There are also specialized exchanges for this type of income.
Description of recipes also seemed to me a boring occupation. After all, you need not just to prepare a delicious dish, but also take a picture of each step, and with high quality and beautiful. However, if cooking is your calling, and you have a good camera, then this work is for you.
Earnings on your own site
Having tried the listed earning options on the Internet, I concluded: you can earn real money by creating your own website. Oddly enough, but to create a site was not so difficult. By entering a query into the search engine, I got a bunch of links on how to do this. Having methodically studied the instructions for creating the sites of experienced bloggers, having understood the HTML markup language, I created my own site!
It turned out: it’s not enough to create your own Internet resource in order to receive income. It is necessary to fill it with interesting and unique information, to attract the target audience - in a word, to promote. This is what I am doing now. Today I get a little money from advertising on the site.
The Internet provides a sea of opportunities, both for additional and basic earnings. If you set a goal and invest in achieving it, you can find your favorite pastime that generates income. Go for it and everything will surely work out!

Most of all I like this type of earnings, as copywriting. There is no need to understand for a long time. The main thing is to find customers and there will be a steady income. Not so long ago I found a customer and now I earn 600-1200 rubles for 1.5-2 hours)
If you own the word and syllable, then copywriting is a normal option. Of course, some time should be spent on reputation. A few hours a day with a child can well be carved out. In addition, you can combine with other online earnings.
More recently, I also decided to try to make money on the network, set myself a certain goal, and while I go to her with small steps, I decided to check how much I can earn in a month. The amount is still small, as described in the article, we need to build a reputation for ourselves, we will try: now I am writing comments, posting my photos for sale, uploading other people's profiles (why not?), And surfing. The main problem of earning money on the network is of course fraud, no one is safe from this, I would like to create a database of conscientious “employers” for myself, which would share links with friends who would not be in the way of a penny.
A few hours a day? But where do you get them? With a child and even household chores! If half an hour will let you sit at the computer - and that’s good.
