How Do I Make Money On The Internet While In College?

There are lots of things you can do as a college student; it depends on what your skills are and if you need the money soon or sometime in the future. Let’s have a look at each.

If you need money soon, then you have three choices: micro jobs, teaching online or freelancing. All three are fine but the problem is they don’t really give you a long term income.
Well, that’s not quite true. If you do freelancing and you can charge a decent amount of money, then you could subcontract the work out; that will give you a long-term income.

But for a long-term, sustainable income, you really need to go for something which can earn you a passive income, such as affiliate marketing, drop shipping, or Kindle eBook publishing.

Each requires work, patience and perseverance. However, there are also some differences.

1.Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is probably the easiest of the three, especially if you are completely broke. I don’t recommend trying to learn it for free but if you have absolutely no money, affiliate marketing is the way to go. You’ll need a fair amount of free time to work on it though so if you are really busy in college, it might not be the best choice.

2.Drop Shipping

Drop shipping is a little bit more difficult technically speaking. If you have some money and some time this may be the best bet. I always think that drop shipping is something people should do after learning affiliate marketing, but I don’t necessarily think that’s obligatory; probably because that’s how I learned.

3.Kindle eBook Publishing

If you have money but no time and no skills, this may be your best bet. You can outsource almost all the work, although you will have to do some marketing. It’s really passive (once you have got everything set up), so this one will give you the most time to do your college work and make money online.

Whatever you do, keep calm. It’s easy to get all caught up in the moment but the best thing is to take your time, make a decision when you’re ready, and then stick at it. That’s the best chance of success.
