This is the trend as we live in a world that change day by day. People don't have to struggle to make money with a regular 9 to 5 job because there's online jobs for students are available. That's what I heard at news, just right now and I log in my https://www.beermoneyforum.com account to start this thread! How cool is that!?! :cool:

Do you know any online jobs for students?

 

[Vampa]

Some ways students can make money online:

1. Make money on Microtask sites: Mturk, Microworkers, Crowdsource. This is probably the easiest way to make some extra money online because you don't have to apply for jobs. Register, work and earn. It's that simple.

2. Join sites like Upwork where you can find freelancing jobs. They always have numerous jobs posted. Virtual assistant jobs tend to pay better so focus on trying to get one.

3. Fill out surveys: survey junkie, poll buzzer, Pine Cone, etc.

4. Earn some money on PTC and GPT sites: Neobux, Inboxdollars, etc.

5. Sell your used stuff you don't need anymore on Ebay.

6. Get a transcription job on sites like transcribeme, quicktate, etc.

7. Get paid to post on forums.

8. Get paid to search the web! Bing has a rewards program that pays people to use the search engine.

For starters, you could check out the previous Free Ways to Make Money Online? thread. All of the posts there have great suggestions, which will work for students, too.
However, now I'd like to focus on websites which you can only apply to as a student or websites which need skills most students will probably have:

• MindSumo: If you have a .edu email and you enjoy problems and puzzles, just go for it. You'll get paid to propose feasible solutions to some real-life problems (there are lots of possible categories, such as computer science, engineering or business). Also, prices are great (minimum cashout is $100, but you get $30 when you sign up and $25 when you just answer a problem; then, if your answer gets selected, you'll be payed a minimum of $50).
• OneClass: As a student, you'll probably take lots of notes during class, so how about gaining something out of them? If you have a .edu email address (they use it to verify your student status), you can upload your notes and get points for each of them, which you can use to get gift cards (there are PayPal, Amazon and many more cards, even...Starbucks, apparently?). You can also use the website to find some material you might need for an exam.
• Prolific Academic: You get paid to take part in academic research surveys (most of them are about social sciences and psychology, but you can find much more than that). They collaborate with universities all over the world, and you may even have fun doing them.
• Studypool: Tutoring is always greatly advised as a way to put some money on the side, if you're a good student, so why not doing it online, too? You can help other fellow students out with any problem they have in all kinds of subjects (Physics, Maths, History, Accounting, foreign languages, there's anything you could ever think of), and get paid if you helped them the most. Give it a try.
• InstaEdu: Another tutoring website, it's more popular but it's also harder to get accepted as a tutor: however, if you're good at the subject you're studying, you shouldn't experience much trouble. You get matched to a student on the go, and you can chat, talk and video to them. It's probably one of the highest paying ones, though (about $20/hour).
• BrowseU: It's a new, rising site, but it's based on a great concept: gain money to pay student loans. It's basically a search engine, and all of the ads revenue are shared among members. It doesn't take much time to use, even a few searches a day could work, and it's constantly growing - the more users, the higher the revenues, the higher your gains. If you're thinking about trying it out, spread the word.
• ThePensters: If you consider yourself good at writing academic papers, then this is the right website for you. You're basically working as a freelance writer here, but you should be used to writing academic papers already, so it's a pretty nice opportunity.

Also, if you're a student, there's a chance you may have good English writing and speaking skills (as in, really good), so you could also check out:

• Nicetalk: It's a smartphone app (for both iOs and Android) you can download to help Chinese students train with English. You'll need to pass a test to get accepted, first (it's a recorded video), but after that, you'll be able to gain up to 10 dollars an hour (minimum cashout is $20). If you feel uncomfortable with them seeing you, however, you can also try the next one.
• Palfish: Same concept as Nicetalk, but you've got more freedom on how to interact with the students (you can still record yourself, but you can also just talk or even chat). You can set your own rate, with the minimum being $5/hour. The only downside is that they pay in Chinese currency, so they get charged a little fee when they pay you (nothing troublesome, but still worth mentioning).

Also, this may not be exactly an online job, but how about selling your old books online? If you're not using them anymore, you may as well gain something back.

I just wanted to note that a previous poster mentioned Prolific Academic and I have had a lot of success with them recently. At first, it was pretty slow, but now there are studies added constantly that I can participate in. I hope you see success with them as well!

In short terms, college students have to concentrate on their studies, the more better you perform in your studies the greater results you will see in exams.
There are so many ways to make money online that is applied to anyone either the college or professionals, but college students won't have time concentrating this online making money.

What I suggest is look for some short term projects on forums, freelancer sites, micro niche sites, Fiverr depending on your skills whether you are a programmer, designer or content writer. Short term projects take 2 to 3 days for completion, so that you can concentrate on your studies.

If any college student reading this thread, then please post your skills, location in this forums so that we can help you to get the right work for you.

Hey guys!

I graduated college with a BA in English. I have always been into fiction writing, but don't have much experience with articles or non-fiction. What content writing sites would you recommend for a beginner who is looking to gain some experience and build a portfolio?

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

[madetofly]

You could try to apply for leapforce, appen, lionbridge or similars. I never got accepted, but as far as I know the pay a very good salary. Basically what you are going to do, if you get approved, is to be a 'search engine evaluator', you are supposed to rate the results given by search engines. And you can make your own schedule.

 

[suresh]

First of all try posting on forums, so you can get some experience about forum posting, where to get clients, how to find clients. You will also meet a number of people who write similar content.
Try Iwriter that pays good money as people posted in forums, but I am not a writer as own myself few blogs.

 

[vinaya]

Forums can be a good platform to post informative (non-fictional) short post. Once you feel that you can easily write informative contents, move to writing sites such as HubPages. HubPages will not earn you big money but the feedback you get is amazing. After, you are good at writing articles you can try freelancer sites.

 

[Corzhens]

Have you considered creating a blogsite? For real writers, I guess a blog is the best teacher because you can be at ease in writing what you want. But I'm not saying that forums and other sites are not good for practice. In fact, a forum gives you knowledge at the same time you are sharing what you know. Check on some blogs and see for yourself if you are comfortable in writing such. By the way, you can enroll your blog in Adsense you can somehow earn from it.

 

[SLTE916]

I'll second HubPages as a way to learn. The potential for profits has gone way down, but the community is amazing at giving constructive feedback and overall support. You may find good contacts there to hunt down more lucrative ventures, as well, and you'll learn about SEO, which is a wise move if you want to get into heavy-duty article writing.

Ultimately your best bet is to try your hand at your own, niche-targeted blog. You may want to at least start one on the side and write an article for it every now and then, either for practice or profit. If nothing else this will give you a platform to launch an Adsense application.

 

[Vampa]

Content writing is formulaic. Grasp the basics and you'll need afterwards is a little practice and you'll be good enough decent money using your writing skills. Take a look at blogs you like, analyze how the content is constructed and apply what you learn. The first time I got a job on Freelancer I'd never written an article before but I wrote an article anyway and got paid the same day. As long as you can write passably well you can make money writing articles.

Writing SEO articles is a little different and can take a little longer to learn.

I'll suggest that you register at a Content mill like iWriter. It's easier to make money on these sites because you don't apply for writing jobs.

However if all you seek is building a portfolio why not create a blog on Wordpress or Blogger?

 

[beasleym1989]

Thank you all for your suggestions. I think that I have a pretty good starting point now. I have always wanted to start a blog, but I live in the middle of nowhere and don't feel like my life is exciting enough to justify a blog. I had twin boys last year and thought that would be a great topic to blog about with the every day chaos, but ended up losing one to SIDS at 4 months old...easily the worst day of my life. I will take a look a look at some blogs and see if I can come up with something.

 

[Po1son]

It all depends on what you like doing and what skills you have. If you are good at writing you can join Postloop and the Forum Wheel. You can also join PTC sites. However it can be a bit slow to earn over there. If you have an android phone then there are some apps that you can download and you can earn through them.

 

[ipol12]

Either students, freelancers, and other people, they can earn money equally if they put some equal efforts. Students can earn through online, and joining in websites like BMF can help them find ways to earn online. I know some students who are earning online.

I think for students the translation jobs are much better option. Most of the students if in language category of the degree then that can be used for the growth. You can see that transcription jobs are good for the students. And that's one more reason we have to find out if the onliine jobs can be good enough on that front. That being said, you can see that some of such jobs are not sustainable. So be ready to jump when the source of revenue dries out.

Indeed. Aside from that, they can even improve as students in school, as they develop or improve their listening in school, as well as in English, if they don't live in English speaking country.

There are lot of students who try to make money online, but in these days most of these students are interested in chatting on Facebook. Some good students who know the value of time may work online.
In India these students are very addicted towards Facebook then Whatsapp.
There are several app help to make money, but these students are not interested from the last two years.

I agree, there are lot of students wasting money. But the thing is that mentality of every source making you money needs to be changed. That's not how it works. The value generation has to be from both side. You can make money doing stuff but not all can make money. Some of the time you have to take some break and see how that work let it course. That's why I think college students should check out patreon if possible. That's a good place.
