10 simple things every housewife can do to make money online

We all know that times are a little tighter than they have been for a very long time but that doesn’t change the fact that a lot of families simply can’t afford for both parents to be working out of the house. With that in mind, what can a housewife stay at home parent  do online to help bring in a little bit of extra money and work from home? 

Here are ten simple things that you can do from home to make a bit of extra money, without having to hire a baby sitter:

Work from home writing

There are literally thousands of companies out there looking to hire part time writers and to be honest, your writing doesn’t even always have to be that good. If you’re willing to take feedback, most website owners will help you along and a single article can easily net $200 or more.

Work at home designing websites

If you have a creative flair, take a bit of time and learn the basics of web design! You can leave the coding up to somebody else, or learn to tackle it down the road. Once you’ve build a couple simple portfolio websites to get your feet wet, use a service like CraigsList in your area to help find local companies who need designers.

Moderate online forums

Tons of businesses need people to help keep track of their online reputations and help police forums. You can often work from your own home as much or as little as you can afford and your work will help keep forums up dated and safe.

Research online for spare cash

Online research is big business, you can work for companies or local governments. I know several people who do this type of work freelance for reporters all over the world, helping to make sure stories are accurate and well sourced.

Blog about something you love

Blogging is one of the easiest ways for a woman to make money online and you’d be surprised what people read about! Blogging about everything from children’s clothes, dollhouse accessories, gardening, home decorating and even cost savings is a great way to earn money from Google AdSense, a free online advertising service who will pay you to host their ads!

Become a Twitter consultant

Do you know how to Twitter? What about Facebook and RSS? If these things make sense to you, take a deep breathe because you’re in high demand! Companies need casual employees just like you to update their social media marketing, spread the world of their products and market their message through social media, all from the comfort of your own home.

Sell your expertise while looking after the kids

Make money online doing what you’ve always done! Get a Skype number and run your own online business from home offering professional services during naps and playtime.  Plenty of professionals are too busy to chat on the phone away so setting yourself up as an email or text based business is a great way for them to ask you questions without you taking up their time, and it’s a perfect way for you to stay home and work full time.

Build a website about your town

Put together a free website about your town and let Google sell ads to cover your costs. People are always searching for details about your community, so why not write about local attractions, stores, parks and more?

Run an online store

These days, you can run an online store to sell just about anything and you can do it without leaving your home. PayPal accepts payments and takes care of shipping for you, so all you need is something to sell right? Guess what … there are plenty of companies who will ship products directly to your client, with your name on the package! Even better? Ask a local shop if you can be a commissioned sales person working from home and sell their product online!

Put people in touch for money

You don’t have to sell anything but if you happen to be good at it, great! Why not keep a list of people you know who can design websites and another list of people who want websites built? Playing match maker online is a great way to earn a lot of extra cash without having to spend anything but a little bit of time.

I’d love to hear your ideas for how people can make money working at home or stories about success in this economy so please feel free to comment below!
