The internet is literally a frontier land with near unlimited ways to make money. Those that apply creativity and hard work are those most likely to succeed. Don't be afraid to try something new! Success is found in that little corner that no one has covered yet. Throughout my efforts making money, I've tried many different things to make money. Here are the top 10 moneymakers in my experience.

1. Affiliate Marketing - If you're a good writer and give honest reviews, affiliate marketing is by far the best way to make money on the web. Gain reputation, which leads to followers, which eventually leads to sales. Collect an email list.

2. Blogging - Blogging is just as good of a source of income as affiliate marketing if you're able to gain a large following of return readers. Provide unique and quality content to build a base.

3. Write an E-Book - Write an e-book on a topic that you excel in. Sell this e-book for a nominal fee on Fiver, Click Bank, Amazon or anywhere else you can sell e-books. If you're really good in your skill sales will be good.

4. Article Writing Gigs - Various sites will hire writers for content. Having an established blog and followers helps to secure the best gigs. Start out at E-Lance as they are by far the most popular.

5. Freelance Work - If you have a good reputation in your niche, you could be paid to guest blog or paid to write articles for others in the niche. Start out with gigs from Fiver or E-lance and sell yourself after producing good work. You'll be the surprised the number of webmasters needing help.

6. Fiver - Fiver allows you to post services that you're willing to do for $5.00. Advertising your writing services but make sure to include article size limitations. 400-500 characters is good for $5.00.

7. Selling Articles Off a Website - There are plenty of internet classified out there that allow you to post ads for free. Advertise yourself and your article writing services. Link to your blog and provide at least two good examples of your writing.

8. Craigslist - Craigslist is a good place to advertise your writing skills. You can write press releases for companies and post articles with links pointing to their websites. Make a good pitch and link back to your website that sells your service. Offer to make blogs for small companies for a fee.

9. Syndication - If your articles are good, they will be picked up by major e-zines and websites. Sometimes these sites pay you to write consistent material for their site. Having a blog that matches the niche of these sites is a big plus.

10. Start your own writing company - Make an entire sales page dedicated to your articles and offer article writing services for companies. Offer to write and send articles promoting their products and websites, write promotional material for their website or even start a blog for their company. Businesses are investing into advertising on the internet more than ever these days.
