To make really good online money, one has to invest time and effort to learn the ropes. You cannot make online money overnight. Well I suppose you could but we’ll only be talking about a few dollars and cents here. Also, to make online money, one has to spend money as well; unless you’d want to do things manually for the rest of your life. There are a lot of tools out there who claim to help you make online money but of course you have to be wary because some of those who sell you these things are only after your money. Anyway, here are the ways you could make online money by degrees of difficulty:

1. Make online money with Google Adsense – easiest one to implement. +
2. Make online money via paid posts +
3. Make online money via paid surveys +
4. Pay to click (PTC) sites +
5. Private ad sales (if you have a blog or website) ++
6. Make online money through referral programs (Chitika, Widgetbucks, etc..) ++
7. Make online money by selling links (Text-link-ads, inline ads) ++
8. Sell something online +++
9. Affiliate Marketing +++
10.Open a membership site +++

+ Fairly easy to implement/do. Adsense however may take a lot of work before you can earn, but implementing it is really easy.
++ Will take a fair amount of work, time, and of course reputation
+++ This is something that you really have to work for and will probably cost you a lot of money.

I’m not usually a gambling man, but when an opportunity arises that I feel the odds are stacked in my favor, I never hesitate. So earlier today, when an officemate was asking whether there’s anyone interested to bet on the UEFA Champion’s League quarterfinal clash between Liverpool & Chelsea with the latter being given a one goal advantage, I didn’t hesitate to volunteer.

Liverpool is no slouch in the football field this year. Every game they played this week showed that they are one of the teams to beat. Chelsea on the other hand has been well, a shadow of their 2008 self. I do know however that buried deep inside that team’s heart lies the courage of real contenders. I would never have thought of betting if there were no handicaps involved. Liverpool after all comes into the game brimming with confidence and Chelsea, well there has to be some sort of hesitation on their part. But the advantage given to Chelsea was too much I think. They’re not exactly a pushover team. They know how to win. So with full confidence, I accepted the bet, crossed the fingers and watched the game.

I almost choked when Liverpool got the first goal at 6 minutes into the game. I thought Chelsea was a goner. But the winning heart I knew the team has came into play. When the smoke cleared Chelsea won 3-1, and I earned myself an easy P1,000 in less than 2 hours.

I probably won’t be betting again. It’s a bad thing if you make a habit out of it. Besides I don’t think the boys in the office would think so little of Chelsea again.

Just a little caution should you indulge yourself into gambling though. Be sure to bet only what you can afford to lose. And more importantly, don’t bet what you don’t have.

And so it is with making money online. Some opportunities are only available to bloggers who live on certain areas. So far, I’ve tried searching for paid opportunities online for bloggers in the Asian region and this early, the following are the things that could give us Asians some extra money.
