It could literally be ANYTHING you want, from skateboarding to cat juggling or Dog training, and everything else in between.

2. Google AdSense
Google AdSense is a quick way to earn money online because you can see results almost instantly. I usually recommend this to college students or other people who need to see immediate success in order to stay motivated. The best thing to do here is sign up for a free account at Google Adsense and then integrate the Ad code that Google gives you into your websites, when someone clicks on the ad, you get paid. It’s that simple.
3. Become An Amazon Associate
If you more into selling physical products, this could be a really good route for you to go because Amazon lets you become an affiliate for EVERYTHING on their network from Electronics to Books and everything else. You’ll start off earning 4% commissions on anything you sell and can earn up to 9-10% as you sell more and more. This is the recommended path to take if you are into electronics or video games because that stuff is always HOT and sells like crazy everyday with Amazon Affiliate.
4. Write Articles For HubPage.com
HubPages.com is a great way to earn quick money online because you can integrate both your Google AdSense account and your Amazon Associates account into your profile there and earn a revenue share every time someone clicks on your ads or buys an Amazon product.
5. Write Articles For InfoBarrel.com
This website is very similar to HubPages.com but InfoBarrel.com is newer and a huge website that lets you earn a 75% revenue share while HubPages.com only offers a 60% share of the revenue generated.
6. Affiliate Marketing
This is one of the most popular ways to earn quick money online because you can go to a website like ClickBank or Commission Junction and sign up for a free account, then find a product for virtually any niche out there, from making money online, to dog training. All the products are pre-made for you, all you gotta do is grab your special tracking link and promote it. Then when someone buys through your link, you’ll earn a large commission, sometimes as large as 75%. Then just rinse and repeat.
7. List Building & Email Marketing
This is one of the most profitable ways to start earning money online VERY quickly and over time can product you autopilot money with just the push of a few buttons. Essentially what you do is capture peoples names and emails from a Squeeze Page and then email all of them once with an affiliate link. This is possible with autoresponder software like Aweber.com because it stores all the names and emails you collect in once place so that when you send out an email, it broadcasts all of them at once. Imagine if you had thousands of people on your list, when you send them an affiliate link, you’d make instant money.
8. CPA (Cost Per Action)
There are various different CPA networks you can sign up with around the web, like PeerFly.com where you can sign up for free and start promoting their offers. Typically what happens is, you’d get your unique CPA link, when people go to that link they are presented with an offer like “Submit Your Email For A Free iPhone”. I’m sure you’ve seen those out there, well, every time this happens you would get paid $1.50. Do this on a mass scale and you’re be making some good money.
9. Google AdWords
If you’ve already got a product you can sign up for an account with Google AdWords and start promoting it on their SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages) and Let’s assume when someone clicks on your ad, you’ll pay around $1.00 per click you receive. So if you know your offer converts at 1 in 100 visitors and you make $200 per conversion and you paid less than $200 bucks to get that conversion, you’re profitable and will continue making money as long as you run that campaign.
10. SEO (Search Engine Optimzation)
Let’s say you picked out a cool affiliate offer from ClickBank and now you wanna promote it. You could write a HubPages Or WordPress article targeting that products keywords and optimize your article to come up on the first page of Google Top 10 Results about a particular keyword phrase like the products name, or perhaps something more broad like “Quick Ways To Earn Money Online”. By doing this, you will soak up traffic from all the people searching for that keyword phrase, they will click on your SEO’d article and buy through you link. You’ve got money!
11. Write An E-Book And Give It Away For Free
Hmm, You might be thinking how the heck is that going to make me money? Well it’s simple really, as you write the short ebook you not only load it with relevant affiliate links but you also make people give you their name and email in exchange for the download. So you do two things here, you build a list so you can follow up with the people who download your ebook and you will make money from anyone who buys your recommended products in your ebook from your affiliate links.
12. Start A YouTube Channel
Youtube is yet another way that you can get paid from AdSense. If you happen to create an awesome channel that gets thousands of subscribers and views then You can start displaying AdSense Ads on your videos and take a percentage of the revenue share. You could also put links in the YouTube description box to affiliate products or anything else like that.
13. Join A Forum
One of the quickest ways to earn money online is to join a forum related to your favourite topic. All you do is create a account at a place like WarriorForum for instance, once you join and start posting and helping other people then they let you have what is called “Your Signature” where you can say whatever you want and put links to virtually any website you want, like affiliate links. Then, once you have your forum signature file setup all you gotta do is make a bunch of posts on that forum, your signature will automatically display and people will get curious and click on it, making you money every time one of them buys.
