Theres a Free way to make money on internet

Is it possible to make money on the internet for free? The answer is yes, if you have the right sources which you'll find here. The internet is constantly growing and so is the potential for making money on it. For example, I use method #5 to generate $1,000s every month. So without further ado, let's examine 5 free ways to make money on the internet:

1. Blogging - A blog is an online journal where absolutely anyone can write about anything they desire and post it on the internet for people to see. Blogging is a very popular form of making money online for free. You can write blogs about anything and recommend products related to your blog from websites like Clickbank.com. Find a product there, make a blog about the product and recommend it!

2. Google AdSense - Google AdSense is another free way to make money on the internet. Sign up with Google AdSense, and create a blog. You can then put Google AdSense on your blog. Ads will appear on your blog. Every time a visitor clicks on the ad, you get paid. The more visitors you get to your blog/website, the more money you can make with Google AdSense.

3. eBay - Believe it or not, you DO not need to own your own product to sell stuff on eBay. eBay offers affiliate programs which let you promote products that aren't you own. Whenever that product sells, you make a certain percentage of the sale. This is really recommended for veterans who know the ropes of eBay.

4. Paid Surveys - There are a lot of paid survey sites on the internet that let you fill out forms and questionnaires in exchange for money. The reason companies do this is because it lets them optimize their products and demographics. I've used a couple of survey sites. I wasn't happy with them, but there are credible sites out there. Though I prefer the next method above all the rest.

5. Article Marketing - Article marketing involves writing articles and recommending products related to the article. If people buy the product you recommend in the article, you make a sale! This is one of the most convenient methods for anyone beginner or veteran.

I personally use article marketing. It has generated me me a substantial income. Here is proof.

Common Mistakes Made by a Freelance Developer

You are a freelance developer at the beginning of your career and don't know exactly which way to go in order to achieve success. Your confusion is natural, because everyone knows that the success and failure are separated by a very thin line and very often, out of disinformation or misinformation, we can find ourselves taking a step on the other side of the line and putting everything we've worked hard for in jeopardy. A good way to avoid making mistakes is to know when to recognize them. Here are some of the most frequent mistakes a freelance developer tends to make:

  1. Under-pricing. You are just beginning, building a reputation, and aren't exactly sure of what your professional worth is, so you are tempted to lower your prices. You must keep in mind that you should always be paid the deserved amount for your level of skills and experience, and you shouldn't be afraid to ask for it, even if it might mean losing a bid or two. You are better served in the long run.
  2. Modesty. Yes, everyone's been telling you how much of a virtue it is ever since you've been born, but in a world where you have to market yourself, your skills and your image, modesty shouldn't take up so much space. Be confident in your abilities and your client will as well.
  3. Feeling compelled to take on a great deal of work even though you don't have the time to do it all and you know it? Learn to say "no". Take a step back, because you need to realize that overexerting yourself and missing your employer's deadlines isn't doing anyone any favors.
  4. Keep in touch with your past happy customers because you never know when new work or recommendations could come in. Don't be afraid to drop a friendly email or a card on special occasions. It's called PR.
  5. Don't commit to one employer. Of course, the idea of stability might sound tempting, but once you are working exclusively for one person, the benefits of freelancing fly out the window, not to mention you might start missing out on great opportunities.
  6. Getting sloppy. Yes, it's been known to happen. You can get tempted to rush through your work, or not to double check its quality once you have established a good working relationship with a client. It would be in your best interest (and that of your client) to lose this habit because nobody wants sloppy work, regardless of how long standing your working relationship is.
  7. Try to understand your employer's wishes. Of course, you are being hired for your level of skills and experience but you always have to keep your employer's desires in mind, otherwise you risk handing in a final product your customer is not happy about.
  8. Always communicate with your employer, leave no gray areas. It's in both your interests.
