9.Doing MLM

MLM stands for Multi Level Marketing. It follows a geometric progression chain style inclusion of people in your downline (Under You). Speak Asia, My Video Talk, Herbal Life, Amway are some popular mlm examples to take in this regard. I personally suggest people to not to go for any mlm. But if you can convince others to join in your downline, you have huge possibility of making big times.

The main problem with this type of business model is the instability of the model. You will find lot of online/offline  mlm opportunities get shut down after a certain point of time. Number of losers are always way larger than than that of those who make some. Though the system is unethical, you will find people advocating for certain mlm opportunities because they are having vested interest.

10.Online Trading

Two types of Online Trading you can opt for. Intraday trading and Forex Trading. Intraday trading is all about taking due advantage of minute to minute fluctuations of share prices of most volatile shares within the specified day time (9.30am-3.55pm). Buy low Sell High or Sell High and buy low. Difference will be your profit excluding the brokerage. You can take deliveries also for short term trading which requires payment in full.You need demat account to get started. But a strong word of caution is you must equip yourself with cutting edge knowledge of when and what to buy and sell. This timing thing is very important. You can double, tripple or quadruple your money by taking part in intraday trading. You may loose a lot of money if you don’t minimise your losses using stop loss.

Forex trading  (Trading of Currencies) is open 24X7 unlike intraday which lets you work in day time only. It may be difficult for day JOB (Just Over Broke) doers to get involved in intraday trading but in Forex Trading you have the time flexibility. Educating yourself about the market movements and establishing correlations between share indices of important countries are highly recommended regardless of online trading of any type.

11.Gambling
Like offline Gambling, you can play, bet,  gamble online too and make a lot of money from internet. You have the opportunities to play with gamblers around the world. You need lot of money to get started. We do not recommend it because it’s a mere exchange of money and has got nothing to do with production of any sort.
12.Site Flipping

Site Flipping is about creating sites which makes money and selling them in a considerably high price. Website Flipping is better than domain Flipping because domain flipping market is a tougher one. If somebody doesn’t get a .com domain available he goes for .org, .net, .co or country level domain names of his choice. Domain flippers find this tough to digest. But if you can develop sites which make money online, you can easily sell it using sites like Flippa.Com.

13. YouTube

Youtube has become a great tool for video marketing for businesses of any kind. If you can create good videos which people would want to watch, you can earn from your youtube video channels. You have every option to run AdSense ads in your videos after YouTube approves it. Even an one minute video like “Charlie Bit my Finger Again” has earned more than million dollar.  Keyword research, Good quality video, Optimizing the videos for Google and monetizing the videos can make you rich in a short span of time.
