If you have experience as a professional photographer, you can always sell your photos online for extra income. People are always looking for shots involving nature, structures, people, and most anything unusual to put in presentations or on their website, making this option a great money resource for someone that enjoys “capturing the moment.” How to Do It To get the most from your images, here is how to do it: Step #1: Take high quality pictures. In order to have something to sell, you’re going to have to start by taking some high quality pictures. It helps to have your camera on you at all times, allowing you to capture life’s little impromptu moments that often happen with no notice at all. Unique images are always great to sell because when you can get the viewer to look at something a different way or create an image that isn’t likely to be found anywhere else, you stand to make a good bit of money being an online professional photographer. Also, simple photos sell better than complex ones. The reason for this is that they are easier to Photoshop, allowing the buyer to craft them so they meet their specific needs. Remember that part of this step requires that your images be high quality. This means that you need to be familiar with things such as lighting, colour, shadows, and countless other photography-related concerns, and aren’t just using any old camera to point and shoot. If your image has a person in it, you’re going to want to get their permission to sell it in writing. If you don’t, you could find yourself in some legal trouble, which isn’t going to help your bottom line at all. Additionally, any image that is copyrighted by someone else cannot be sold by you. So, if you went and got your picture professionally taken, for instance, you have no right to sell that image yourself and make a profit on it unless the photographer agrees, which you’ll want that in writing as well. Step #2: Decide which platform(s) you want to sell it on. There are many different online platforms to sell your photos on. A few of them include Dreamstime (you...

While Facebook is a great social media site for keeping up with family and friends, you can also make money while on it too as billions of people are already on it, giving you access to a large audience right from the start. Affiliate marketing is one option that will generate some cash from your Facebook page, as is building a page and then selling it for a profit. Either way, your bank account grows all by using this site which you’re probably already more than familiar with and use each and every day. How to Do It Here is how to set up your Facebook page so that you can earn money while checking up on your family and friends: Step #1: Create your page. You want your Facebook page to look appealing, so choose a profile picture and cover photo that are consistent with your brand and connect with your followers. If you’re good with photography or Photoshop, you may choose to create your own graphics. If not, you may want to hire someone to do it for you as your first impression can impact whether or not someone follows you. Be sure to complete all of the “About” information so that someone can find you more easily through your page type and keywords. Include your website URL, YouTube channel link, and any other account you have on it so they can easily find you through other mediums, connecting different affiliate marketing channels with each other, increasing your income at the same time. Step #2: Post great content. Now that you have your Facebook page set up, it is time to post on it. Think of content or photos that your followers would be more inclined to Like or Share. Again, if you’re a creative type, you can come up with the posts on your own. If not, you may want to hire this out.
