Earning money while traveling.
Saturday, May 7, 2011When we decided to take a year off to travel or make a long trip, one of the problems that often occurs is that of money.
If we decide to embark on the adventure, it is important to plan things and have a set budget, but still many times the money runs out and forces us to go home.
Many people, in order to continue with the trip, decided to stay a while in one place and find a temporary job (waiter, etc.) with which to follow the path, sometimes even come to work, for instance in return for accommodation.
In the era in which we live is very common for travelers to have a blog to tell their adventures and misadventures, either in order to keep friends and family or to get some benefit, but ...
How can we get benefit to a travel blog?
The most common method to monetize a blog is to charge for advertising, and this can be done in several ways:
- Google Ad Sense. Today I think is the best option. You get paid at the time your account reaches the payment threshold, which is 70 €.
- Advertising platforms. There are several options that you can put up. Companies hire advertising with them and they will pay you, although there are some that do not inspire much confidence in the issue of counting clicks ...
- Programs attached. This is put a company banner on your website and charge a commission for sales that will come through your page. Some companies have attached program through advertising platforms and other companies as " Catch "or "Hostelbookers" do directly.
- Contact the companies directly and offer to advertise on your website.
Another option to earn some money, telework, or work online. This depends on the skills you have, but you can offer your services such as travel photographer some magazine, writing a book, make translations, making websites, proofreading, writing in a blog, or if you pack do administrative work such as "virtual assistant", or whatever it is, remote secretary. There are sites like Freelance Work you can sign up and apply to offers that are of interest.
There are also companies that pay you to answer surveys, read email, etc. But keep in mind that nobody gives money for nothing ... There are ads that say you can earn lots of money simply by transferring money from one account to yours and then another ... (it's amazing that there are people who fall into this, but there is one) so you must confirm before the reliability of the company as much scam out there ...
* Important. Never, never contestéis a job in which you ask for advance money to work.
Among the companies that pay you to do small jobs on the internet, is Microworkers , even if you pay in USD, and to do anything with them is necessary to know English.
