I was just reading a regular business opportunity forum today. A young man was asking if students could also participate and succeed with that opportunity. That’s what I love about the internet. It has opened many possibilities to many more people around the world.
If you could use some extra cash for just a weekend, there are many things you can do on-line nowadays to make money. Here are a few you might not know about.

Focus grouping. You can get paid per hour for participating in on-line focus groups. Consumer research companies can pay up to $100 per hour for your opinion. Now these are not the kind that appear in your search results for paid surveys.
These companies pay more and are worth your time. Respondent for example has an average payout of $140 per hour. You can browse the studies you qualify for and apply to join. Other sites include Fieldwork, Userinterviews and Mindswarms.
On-line surveys. Now you’ve probably seen these and come across several that weren’t real. I can imagine why. On the search engines you may not find any that are international. Or available to non US citizens.
Finding those might require a little digging. But this has improved over the years. You can now get good results but I advise checking for user reviews first before you jump in. otherwise, you can checkout CashCrate, andย Vivatic. If you don’t mind getting stuff instead of cash, check out SwagBucks and InboxDollars.
Freelancing. There are many people offering their skills on sites like Fiverr, Upwork and Freeeup. Everything from graphic design, book covers, website optimization, article writing, and even voice overs for video and audio production.
Virtual assistant service. This one requires a skill set on your part and maybe some equipment. Virtual assistants provide administrative support remotely. Usually from a home office. You can check out VA companies like Belay Solutions and Fancy Hands to see if you already have what is required to get started.
Complete small Tasks. Sites like Crowdflower and Clickworker have small tasks that you can complete and get paid. This includes internet research, data collection, and data categorization. Some of them have training to help you use their tools and the tasks are newbie friendly.
