How do you all make extra money? What is something you do you could share with us all? Something easy? Something hard to do? Does it take a lot of time?
I am making this post so we can discuss what we do online and how we can make money/crypto from it.
I will begin with my methods!
1: Youtube!!
The very first thing I did to earn money online was using Youtube. Now many of you might know that YT pay has gone down a lot lately, and may have seen a lot of Youtubers complain about that. Well I am one of those with a complaint. BUT if you get a few thousand followers you can still make a few dollars per video you upload. Youtube is a very time intensive process and should be considered something you have to really really really dedicate yourself to.
YT takes time. I am talking 1 hour to 2 hours make a decent 5 to 10 minute video. Why does it take this long? Well, if you are the type of person who needs to write out a script that can easily take 30 minutes. A lot of youtubers write a script to read from while they go through ther video, that way they can control their message and have it refined to what they want to say(concise and to the point). Others just wing it, like myself. I and many others are capable of extemperaneous speaking, where if we already know a lot about a subject we can talk about it endlessly for hours without creatinga script. If you are able to do that it saves you a lot of time and you come off as more friendly most of the time :) maybe even more likeable!
The other time sinks in YT are editing the video, editing a picture for your thumbnail, coming up with a good title, coming up with good tags, a good description, uploading it, sharing on other social media sites once uploaded.
This can all take a lot of time to do! In the beginining it is not very rewarding, but it can be a lot of fun if that is what you are in to!
2: Bitcointalk.org
What is bitcointalk? It is a website where many people talk about cryptocurrencies. Mainly they talk about Bitcoin, and there are some smaller subsections with a marketplace and altcoin discussions.
But how do you make some extra money from that? As you rank up to the higher levels you are able to have a signature. A signature is something that everytime you make a post it appears below your post/comment. So the higher level you go the more you can have in there. Eventually when you get to be a Sr Member or Hero, you can have customized links/graphics/coloring/highlights and other lettering/characters that make people notice the signature. You get paid for having a signature.
Signature campaigns pay people to put their link/logo in their signatures. Each time you post you earn a certain amount of BTC or another altcoin. It depends on which signature campaign you join. There are hundreds of campaigns to join and some pay better than others. If you are just starting out you will earn very little(just like here), but if you are posting for a few months and rank up to a Jr Member or Full Member, you can start making anywhere from $5 to $25 USD every week. Higher level people make $80 to $100 a week!
3: Steemit!!
