The start to your yellow brick road to the pot of treasure is a blog. If you don't have one, GET ONE! If you have one but rarely use it, USE IT! A blog can be one of the most powerful resources to your business as it gives you the opportunity to network, share your knowledge and expertise to your target market and create streams of revenue.

Social media hasn't blown up for no reason. People are raving over Facebook and Twitter and constantly hit the sites to post, chat and network. It has never been easier than it is today to get in contact with all of the people you are targeting regardless of what niche or category you may be in. For this reason, it is essential you jump into Facebook regularly to ask questions, answer questions and engage your target audience in conversation.

If you are stumped on how to make extra money, write out your goals and interests. From there, do some research and find out what is hot and what is not. You will then want to pick one niche and expand outward. Start with a single niche you are extremely knowledgeable with and establish yourself as an expert. Then you can branch out to other areas.

Perhaps the first thing that will come into your mind when told to make money via the internet is building your own online business. You can put up an online store or offer your services. However, if you are one of those people who may get overwhelmed by this method and may not feel confident enough in starting something as big, there are other ways to try. For example, how about joining or participating in get-paid-to sites? There are tons of websites out there which offer people reasonable pay for reading emails, doing surveys, signing- up for trial subscriptions, and even surfing the web.

During your research, you should have discovered some survey panels that you can join to earn cash. At this point, you need to start joining those panels. Remember that tool you were told to download? Get it ready because this is going to save you a bunch of time during this process. Use it to populate common fields during registration like name, address, email, phone number, etc.

Another way to earn extra online is by domain flipping or what they call the online real estate trade. This is all about developing, buying, and selling domains. If you have the knowledge and talent on how to build an enticing website, you can turn it into something profitable. You can develop a site and sell it eventually for a much higher price.

The final tip for how to make extra money on the internet is simply to have fun. If you view it as a job, you will find yourself procrastinating and putting it off until tomorrow, the next day and soon it will be next month. If you can find something you actually care about and are passionate over, you will be far more inclined to put in the extra hours needed to make something of your business.
