Learn How to Make Money Online for Free

There is plenty of free home business information on the internet that will teach you how to make money online so you don't have to go around buying up every product you find that promises to give you the secret to making money online. In fact, you don't need to buy any of them! You can find all the information you need for free from blogs and forums.

There are plenty of great blogs that freely give out tons of great information on ways to make money online and many of them even tell you specifically how to do it. I'm not talking about those so-called A-list blogs like JohnChow.com or Entrepreneurs-Journey.com or most of the other blogs in the make money online blogosphere. To be honest, most of those are full of a bunch of shit that will not help you learn how to make money online.

I have been blogging and reading blogs and for a very long time. Yes, I owned a blog even before there was a such thing as "professional bloggers" and most people didn't even know what a blog was. I've also been an internet marketer for many years and I was making money online way before it was the cool thing to do. Basically what I am trying to say is that I know what the hell I am talking about when it comes to make money online blogs.

With that being said, I want to show you a few blogs that are actually worth reading and will help you learn how to make money online and they will give you all the information for free!

* Griz @ http://makemoneyforbeginners.blogspot.com - He doesn't post very often but when he does he gives more information that you can actually use to make money online than any other MMO blog I have ever seen.

* Trent @ http://www.work-at-home-jobs-iowa.com/home-business-blog.html - This free home business tips blog has been going strong since the middle of 2004 and has hundreds of very informative posts.

* Vic @ http://bloggerunleashed.com - Not for the faint of heart because he doesn't hold anything back but you will definitely learn how to make money online from this blog. Check the archives for the best posts because he has slowed down a lot lately.

* Court @ http://courtneytuttle.com - This is definitely one of the best internet marketing blogs in the entire blogosphere. You can't go wrong here.

* Terry @ http://www.thehonestway.com/blog - He actually has a lot of blogs and collectively they are packed with great advice for making money online. This was his first blog so start with it and find his others from there.

* Jason @ http://theuniversitykid.com - Another blogger that truly wants to help others make money online by giving out free information that you can actually use.

And remember that blogs are not the only places where you can learn how to make money online for free. Forums were around long before the blogging era and they are still some of the best places to get free money making information. In some ways they are even better because you can ask questions and get them answered by numerous experts as opposed to just listening to whatever one blogger has to say.

Here are some of my favorite internet marketing / work at home / make money online / home business forums:

http://www.whydowork.com/forums/

http://www.24hourwealth.com/work-at-home-forum/

If you are looking for a quick way to get started, you can easily start your home business for very cheap or even free by tapping into existing home business opportunities. Then use the blogs and forums to get free information on how to build your business into a full-time income.

Why spend all your hard earned money on worthless products when you can use blogs and forums to learn how to make money online for free?

Making Free Money at Home

This is what I've always dreamed of doing. Bored with the rat race of a nine-to-five job, missing my kids, I set out to find out how I could make free money at home.

I stumbled upon lots of sites; all touting something, but there was just one problem. I didn't want to have to pay anything out to begin with. I just wanted to make free money at home. I mean, really, was that really so much to ask? I didn't think so.

Every day I woke up and fired up the computer, looking through the slew of possibly-a-scam web sites, all telling me I could work at home with them, for a small fee, of course.

Finally I hit on writing sites, like Triond and Associated Content. Since registration was free, I decided to try it and see what I could come up with.

I've been writing for a couple weeks now and am already addicted to Triond, a good way to make free money at home, although it does take a couple months to get any income up. Their response time is fast, and you can keep making revenue off of the content you write, so long as it stays on the site; someone is always going to come along and read your content, even months from now, so it's easy to get that revenue up with Triond.

Associated Content is the same way, another great way to make free money at home. They operate on revenue-sharing for your content. Constant Content on the other hand, allows you to write something, and once it's published, have it bought by various people looking for content for their web sites or magazines. The downside to this site is they can own the rights to your work and rewrite your piece, but by that time you've already been paid for it.

Another one I like is reviewstream.com. If you like writing reviews then you're in luck. This site pays two dollars per review they accept; otherwise you get a small percentage, sometimes only forty cents at a time. They accept reviews about books to movies to products you've probably already bought in the store, so you might have something to review already. They also have a board showing the latest sought-after reviews, in my thought a very handy tool. Maybe the best part about this site is you don't have to sign up with them. You input your email address and they send your statements and all relevant emails to your address.

I found loads of other sites, some asking for straight content, others listing jobs to write articles and content for blogs, but I decided to stick with these few I'd found and see what they would yield.

So far I haven't been disappointed.
