Work from home

Seriously?! you could make at least 4k USD a month from scratch and you dont even have to leave the luxary of your own home? That is some serious money by the way. Sounds too good to be true? Well, I have done some research on home based jobs and it turns out that the Philippines is not a virgin to web/online based businesses or outsourcing services that usually requires just your standard laptop and a fast internet connection. Some requires extra important accesories such as, a headset with a microphone and a webcam for a far more complex type of work. But the big bucks comes with an extra big responsibility. Technically you are on your own, true, it has its perks, but juggling between deadlines for multiple articles (if you are, lets say an online content editor or a contributing writer using SEO (Search Engine Optimization)) and other priorities could become a handful, especially if you have it only as a part-time job, so all the other responsibilites could be in jeopardy if you do not know how to manage your time well. In addition, we all know, that deadlines kill creativity and hamper productivity, so if you have a natural flair in writing about almost anything, and would want to become a home based content writer and is comfortable with beating the deadlines, take it as your epiphany, your niche, be a writer.

On a less extreme note, if you cant handle the deadlines and you have at least some knowledge on the internet. Affiliate marketing using Search Engine Optimization might be the best for you. Its all over the web, its in youtube, social networking sites, its everywhere. If you were lured by an ad you see on youtube and you clicked on it? and you were directed to some advertising website endorsing a product, that's when the money comes trickling in for an affiliate marketer. If you have a website, that's great too,(if you do have a website you probably know all about SEO already but blog works well too), you would use SEO to boost and generate traffic on your website, some even have real time sophisticated software for you to use in campaigning the products of your publishers and you could track the status of your online business as well, and just watch it(profits) increase incrementally.

If you have previous experience as a call centre agent, you could just be doing the same thing on your own home. With a good headset with mic and a VOIP/Skype account, you could be working as a call centre agent on a graveyard shift for offshore clients or an english tutor for koreans (very common) and the pay is not bad at all,some companies offer a $3 an hour for a 40 hours/week pay scheme, it varies.

Life is simpler with technology and complicated at the same time, imagine the paradox on that.
