How to start making money online in Sri Lanka

 

Joining paid to read e-mail or paid to click sites is not recommended because you only make pennies that way. During the last three years I have tried those and I haven't earned much from them. So you don't need to make the same mistake. Getting paid to do surveys is a legitimate business but most of the surveys are targeted at US , Canada and UK citizens. So as a Sri Lankan chances of you getting profitable surveys are very less , below are few ways I use to make money online.

    Blogging - This is one of the first method I used to make money online and one of the methods I still use. I earn a decent income from this blog and as the time goes it is bound to go up as well. You can check out my blog post about combining SEO and affiliate marketing to make money to get an idea of how much I earn from this blog. It is also a good post to check out various ways you can make money from your blog.You can start a blog for free using Blogger or WordPress. Since you are trying to make money I recommend blogger because they allow you to add Adsense ads.


    Affiliate marketing - In very simple terms affiliate marketing is selling other peoples products and making a commission from them. Once you join a some service as an affiliate you are given a unique web link and once someone buys something going via your link you get paid a commission. Clickbank is a good place to look for products to promote.
    FOREX Trading - This is one of the easiest ways to make money online and also one of the easiest ways to loose money online as well. This requires lot of training and you need to learn a lot. But if you master the art of Forex trading then you have a very good chance of making a good income online. I'm personally using e-toro as my Forex broker so I can recommend it without a problem.
