The secret to making money on the Internet is to be a part of more than one online revenue source which will bring in money little by little over a lifetime. Taken together, you'll eventually earn enough to quit your day job. Here are some time-tested methods of creating multiple streams of income online.

Sell on eBay

You can sell stuff that's lying unused around the house, or you can offer to be an online seller for a local or international company. You simply register with EBay, put up a photo and description of the product you want to sell, and price it more than what you paid for it. You can make as much or as little as you choose.

Affiliate Marketing

As more and more companies have taken to selling their products and services online, competition has grown intense. To multiply product sales, companies hire thousands of marketing affiliates who get paid on a commission basis. As an affiliate marketeer, your job is to steer the traffic from your blog posting or website to the website of the company whose products you are promoting. If a visitor buys a product or requests a service, you get paid a pre-determined percentage.

Google AdSense

Google AdSense is without a doubt the most successful and genuine method of earning cash online. All you need to earn money with Google AdSense is your own website or blog which attracts a reasonable number of visitors. Then you apply to Google AdSense, and they will post advertisements on your website that are related to the content on your website. Every time a visitor to your website clicks on these ads, you get paid a small amount. You may get paid as little as $0.01 per click, but it adds up in the long run.

Freelance

Freelancers cost less than full-time employees. And the recession has opened many doors for freelancers. You can write articles or content, do translations, or design a website, then there are plenty of online income opportunities for you. The key to finding freelancing assignments is networking. Join and comment on online forums and blogs about freelancing. Websites like elance allow freelancers to connect with employers, for a small fee, of course. You can then bid on the assignments that interest you.

Paid Surveys

Opinion polls are an important way to gauge the mood of a nation, or the satisfaction of a consumer. Companies invest millions in market research. Market research companies turn to the Internet to achieve their targets. Online polls and online surveys are two of the most popular market research tools. Once you join a survey company, they'll send you invitations to participate in paid and unpaid surveys on a regular basis.

Write an Ebook

If you are an expert in your field or if you happen to be creative and you have a few idea that you think are worth sharing, simply market it as an ebook. An ebook is easy to compile, create, and sell. But make sure that the information you offer has long-term value. You can promote your book more effectively if you have a website or a blog. If you create a website to exclusively market your ebook, don't forget to incorporate Google AdSense to generate more income.

Stock Photography

You don't have to be a professional photographer. A picture's worth more than a thousand words, and thus the right picture is worth a lot of money. People need pictures of almost everything. So take pictures of everything that interests you and put it up for sale on ShutterStock.com or iStockphoto.com.

Each of these options need just a little bit of your time and talent. So you can focus on only one, but it's just as easy and much more lucrative to take up more than two of these ideas.
