Anyone, I mean anyone, can post stuff on the internet for free and call themselves published. Its ridiculously easy as long as you have access to the internet in some form. There are plenty of sites and blogs and forums and so on you can post too. However, why not post your stuff somewhere that offers a little bit of money, so you can at least get a little buck for your bang. (As opposed to Bang for the Buck.) You may just get enough cash to grab a value meal at Mcdonalds, or you can make enough to pay one of those pesky bills that come in every month. A few dollars here and there do pile up after all. Even if you don't think about yourself as a writer and don't even want to become a professional writer you can still do this and make some money. Heck, some sites will even pay for instructional videos or photos if you prefer that media.

There are a lot of ways to earn a little cash online, from the straightforward and simple to the much more complicated and convoluted ways that promise higher profits if you just get it right....I've compiled a bunch of sites and ways to make money and still haven't come across all of them. Let's start with the simple ways to make a little pocket change.

Simple and Straightforward...
There are a few sites where you can just sign up and submit content for review and payment or just sign up and get paid for other reasons.

Associated Content-You can sign up and submit articles, editorials, simple how-tos and videos and slide shows. They'll review it and make you an offer for the rights to the content. Its never very high, most stuff earns about $3 or $4 dollars per, but you don't have to be brillant to get stuff accepted. I came across and article on thumb wrestling the other day on their site.

PaysMyBills-this site sells short ebooks on how unusual careers can make people a little money. You tell them about your ebook idea, it doesn't have to be long, maybe 25 pages or so, talking all about the unique way to make money and how to get started in it. They respond with whether or not they want it and if they do, you write the ebook and get %50 royalties from sales for life. I've contacted them about an ebook but haven't heard back yet...
