Data Entry

If you have knowledge or are familiar with things like databases and spreadsheets, then this could be a business for you. You could offer your services to do data entry for various companies and charge them a fee for the service.

Data entry is just that, entering data into a database or spreadsheet or some other similar package. You can find companies that are looking for data entry people at sites like Upwork (one of the biggest), Freelancer, Toptal, Elance, Craigslist (and yes u can find paying work here) and Guru to mention a few. Your data entry service that you provide can be very lucrative.

Tutoring

Tutoring is exactly what it says. You tutor people. You can tutor K-12 students, college students or if you have knowledge or a particular skill set in a given field you could tutor/train other company employees (in the same field), on how to improve the performance of their jobs or create videos on how to use various software packages. Companies pay big money for services like this.

You could also travel and still be able to tutor your clients, with virtual classrooms, as long as you had an internet connection. You could create videos showing/teaching how to do something and post them on Youtube or sell them directly to companies, schools and various other institutions based on the subject matter. Here again, you can use companies like Upwork, Freelancer, Toptal, to search for possible tutoring opportunities.

Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate Marketing is a great way to earn an online income. It is very popular in the digital marketing industry. As an Affiliate Marketer, you market other companies products and/or services.

You will need to have a website and then you will need to find various companies whose products would complement the theme of your website.

You need to find companies that have Affiliate Programs and then sign up with them.Once they accept you they will give you a link with a code that is unique to you.

Hosting Ads

If you own your own website you can monetize it by hosting ads like Google Adsense and Amazon’s Native Shopping Ads. These types of ads actually change depending on the visitor to your site. They will see ads that are pertinent to them only. Pretty cool.

You would sign up with these companies and then select the style of ad you want on your site and they will give a specially coded piece of code, unique to you, and you would add this to your website. Then when your visitors click or buy through the ad you will receive a commission. Another pretty simple solution to monetize your website.

Email Marketing

Email marketing can really promote your business. Email marketing is when a company sends a message to a group of people by use of electronic email. These messages can be advertisements, fundraiser notifications, sales or business requests, solicitations, to name a few.

This builds trust and customer loyalty and promotes your product.

Basically, any email that you send to a customer is considered email marketing. You can build an email list and then send advertisements, promotions, updated information, and much more to them.

Video Blogging

Video blogging is just like Blogging except that you do it via a video as opposed to typing. There are many ways to Video Blog. You can create videos for training, traveling, educational, informative, product reviews, and much more.

You could then post them on YouTube and as you gain subscribers you will start to generate income. You could also sell your videos directly to the consumer (depending on the content) and create an income online.

Product Reviews

Product Reviews can be a very lucrative online income. You would create a website dedicated to products reviews in any of the thousands of types of products out there.

Here you would contact a given company/business, explaining to them what your website is about and then review their products.

As you gain trust, loyalty, and authority in your customers (people reading your reviews), and you recommend the product, then you can have a link on your site that they can click to buy the product and you will, in turn, get a commission. Some businesses will pay you directly to review their products as well. Some will even allow you to keep the product.
