Ways to make money online with forums

Almost every day I find new ways to make money online. Many of them are being used world-wide, for example get paid to write websites and some of them are intended to be used in one country, for instance – free paid surveys, which are usually available for users from USA.

Today I would like to showcase several good ways to make money online for free (and it doesn’t matter where you live). Almost all Internet users are using forums, so here are some tips to make money from home by using forums.

Paid forum posting – there are several good websites, which can help you get paid for writing on various forums and discussion boards. You will be hired by forum owners and receive money for every post completed (check out PostLoop.com – this is a great example of a paid forum posting company).

Revenue sharing forums – if you like using forums, why not use a sponsored forum and get paid for your activity. Sites like Mylot.com share their revenue with their users and give money for posting on their forums and for referring new members.

Avatar and signature advertising – this one requires you to have a very popular forum account. There are sites, like AvatAds.net, which give you a chance to sell your avatar space and receive money for this.

By using forums you can not only get answers to your questions and communicate with interesting people but also earn money by being active and selling your signature or avatar space.

How to Stay Away from Work from Home Scams?

Nowadays many people make money online and I am not an exception. I have been using various work from home techniques and know that some of them are scam.

The most popular scam niche is “get paid to”. Internet offers over one hundred sites, which pay money for taking surveys, completing offers and paying games. Not all of them pay, so here are some tips to avoid scams:

1. Use forums to find information about websites you want to start working with. If they are good – they will definitely have a lot of positive feedback, if not – everything will be vice versa.

2. WhoIS check and emails – scammers usually use identity protection and never reply to emails, which are sent via whois.

3. Do some google search – enter a search query – “testsite.com scam”. If this get paid to website has negative reputation, the results will show up.

4. Look for payment proofs – screenshots of people, who have had success with a get paid to site of your choice will definitely prove that site is legit and paying.

5. Use common sense – you can’t make full-time income from home by taking surveys – maximum you can earn is 5-6 per hour.

All these simple tips will help you stay out of trouble and give you an opportunity to earn some money from home without being scammed.
