Online Surveys & Data Entry
A couple of examples of ways to make extra money without a web site are 1) taking online surveys on a home computer and 2) online data entry. These programs require no web site and may be ideal solutions for people who want to earn extra money from home. There are many people who are making a good part-time income in this way, although it's not for everyone. Most people who do it think it is enjoyable and satisfying.

Blog for Money
Web logs ("blogs") are the rage. Everyone's doing it — writing about things that interest them. It might be personal or it might be about a love for gardening, electronic games, a musical group, or a sport. Although you can set up your own blogging website, free blog sites are easily available. Many people blog but few realize that they can "monitize" their writings by including ads on each page. Here's more about blogging for money.

Sell Your Expertise
Many people don't realize they have knowledge that may be of interest to other people who are willing to pay for some of that knowledge. Your special expertise may be something you've learned from your work experience, schooling, or simply from your interest in a hobby. Creating and selling an online ebook is one way you can share that knowledge with others — and make money.

Text Link Ads
There are a number of search companies, such as Google and Yahoo, who display paid ads on their web sites when visitors perform searches. Advertisers pay these companies a bidded price for each time an ad is clicked on by a visitor. Popular search terms can demand a high cost per click. Search companies also make these same ads available to web site owners such as you and me, and share the ad revenue with us. Google has the most popular program, called Adsense. For more details, see how Adsense link ads pay.

Sell on eBay
I know that this is pretty obvious, but many people overlook this method of making money online. eBay is the world's largest advertising and sales site. Because of this, it's possible to sell just about anything to an international customer base. eBay has created an entire new range of business opportunities for ordinary people.

Create a Money Making Web Site - Help Sell Others' Products
It's easy to create a web site. Most Internet Service Providers (ISP), such as Earthlink, Comcast, and many others, offer members free web sites and offer templates and tools to easily create your own design. This is a free service that most people either waste or overlook as a way to make money on the Internet. You can use your web space to create a site about something you know and love, and the money will follow when you use affiliate programs to get sales commissions by promoting other people's products or services on your own site. For more details see how affiliate programs pay cash.

Buy Wholesale. Sell Retail. Without a Web Site
There are numerous types of products available from web-based companies who let you create a custom mini-store on their web site to help them sell their products or services. You decide which of their products you want in your mini-store, which you can advertise or promote in any way you want. When a customer buys one of your products, you receive the difference between wholesale price and retail price, or you receive a commission. For more details see our article, Buy Wholesale, Sell Retail.

Market a Product or Service on the Web
If you already sell a product or service, or are thinking of doing so, the Internet is the greatest advertising and promotional venue in the world. You can get exposure for your business and make extra money on the Internet that you wouldn't dream of getting from advertising in local newspapers, magazines, or on TV. The catch is that it takes some work, knowledge, and time to get your web site noticed and ranking in the search engines. The secret is "search engine optimization (SEO) techniques" which is the term used to describe special techniques used to get a web site listed and ranked highly in search engines.
