The internet’s a great place to make money online if you know what you’re looking for. It is now easier than ever to find ways to make  a couple of bucks than ever before.

1. craigslist – There are numerous ways to make money on craigslist. There’s the great “For Sale” section where you can sell stuff you don’t want or need anymore.

My favorite way to use craigslist though is the Gigs section.  Most of the gigs posted are same day and will pay in cash. There’s a variety of gigs that range from manual labor to computer repair to modeling gigs (be careful with these though). You’re bound to find something you can do.

It’s a very nice and easy way to make a couple of extra bucks.

2. eBay – I’ve found ebay to the best website to sell stuff. We all have items laying around that we don’t need or want… but I am willing to bet there’s somebody out there that would want to buy it.

But what if you don’t have anything to sell on eBay? Well this is where wholesale suppliers come in. There are many wholesale suppliers out there and my favorite to find them is SaleHoo.

3. fiverr – Fiverr is something I discovered recently and have managed to make some very nice money for very little effort. Basically people post gigs/things they would do for $5.  Some examples include singing songs, editing photos, writing cover letters, etc.

My favorite fiverr ad of all time though is this one: I will make a cool 30 second or longer ninja video for $5.

4. backpage – Like craigslist lite. While I still prefer craigslist, I will still try to sell stuff on backpage. The site is also not as well organized, and you will have to do some digging, but I managed to find a couple of continuous projects that bring in easy money.

5. etsy – Last, but definitely not least, is etsy. Etsy is a very nice place if you’re a creative or handy person. People sell all sorts of arts and crafts here. I like to paint and I’ve managed to sell a few paintings. In the future, I plan on expanding what I offer on etsy. It’s a shame I didn’t think of the coyote neckwarmer first.

These are just a few of my favorite places to make money online. In the future I intend to do a few more articles on sites and show specifically how I make money with them.

Hello, and welcome to goldflo.ws. I am HV and I’ve been making websites and blogging for over 15 years. Along the way I picked up a lot of useful tips and tricks on how on how to make and save money. I wanted to start a blog to share some of the knowledge that I have acquired.

The internet is a great resource of information, but there can be a lot of fluff (and garbage) out there. I plan on being making a website dedicated to effective and simple ways people can make and save money. I am no rocket scientist, and I don’t think you have to be one to effectively manage your money. All it takes is a little know how and some work.

At any rate, thank you for checking out goldflo.ws.
