Looking for ways to actually earn some money.

    Hi, I am looking to actually earn about $5-$6 a day.

    I would put half effort into it for about 5 hours a day.

    I can try a lot, but I just don't know where to start.

    I can design, manage forums, run a game, write adwords ads, no yahoo answers or 300+ word articles, so what would be a good way to earn some cash? No, I am not looking for a magic money making scheme.

    Thanks for your help.

    I think you should post your service at the buy sell section at different webmaster forums, specially at DP. I am sure with those expertise you would be able to make that kind of money.

    I have a contest coming up, starting dec 10, in my forum, you might consider that as well:)

    Out of the things you mentioned, web design might make you some money if you're good at it. Start by setting up a portfolio and advertise your services in BST or on freelancer sites

    Well, the link in your signature implies that you already know how to make $35 an hour, so I'd say you're all set.

    Is that all? If you believe in what you do 5hrs a day for only $5.00 is pretty light! It probably isn't any of my business, just saying. That's only 1 dollar an hour. You could make MUCH more if you really want to offer quality service.

    Best of luck to you, please don't undersell yourself.:)

    Why don't you go for paid surveys? Seems you are running away from article writing. Well you can outsource that and get started with affiliate marketing.

    If you sell just one affiliate product a day, you can make $35 a sale - more or less.

    You don't even need a website. Go to mailchimp.com and open a free account. They will let you put 500 subscribers on your list for free.

    Then go to Twitter. Open an account and post 140 character tips in your niche. Occasionally toss a link to your mailchimp signup form.

    Then send one mail a week. Don't sell to people. Talk to people as you talk to your best buddy.

    Offer one affiliate program a week in your mailing, for a product related to your niche.

    83% of consumers will buy a product between the 2nd and 8th exposure to the product.

    Talk to them every week about dogs, bed bugs, or whatever suits you to talk to them about.

    Don't try to sell the affiliate product. Merely mention the existence of such a product, and let the affiliate website sell the product.

    If you only get one sale a week with a $35 commission, then you will be making your target $5-$6 per day, with a few extra dollars on top.
