Top 5 Ways Teens Can Make Money Online After School

Is your high school teen getting really into being online? Well if he or she is, then perhaps you should start thinking about talking to them on how they can also be making money online. In this article I will talk about the 5 ways in which your teens can make money while online easily, and doing the things they love to do already.

- Making MySpace layouts
Does your teen love MySpace? Most of them do, and most of them also love to be using new layouts everyday. Well if your teen is good with HTML/CSS then perhaps they can start making some layouts for their friends and charging a dollar or two to customize it to their liking. They can also just use profile editors to customize some layouts and then offer them on a small site which they can get for free and sell them there. Making money off of MySpace is something easy, and if you let your teen know, he/she will surely love this idea.

- Finding cute graphics
Does your teen know a lot about computer graphics? Well if he or she does, then they can make serious money even just finding these graphics online. Let them find 200 that they like, and then have them offer those graphics (giving credit to the creators/owners of course) on a small website for their friends to use. The way in which they can make money doing this is by adding a couple of adds around the page. These ads will bring in cash every month as long as there's traffic on a daily basis. Your child can even create his own ads, or sell ad space.

- Writing A Blog
Does your kid find awesome funny or entertaining videos on YouTube all the time? Is he/she really good at a specific thing? Well if you think I'm talking about your teen, then you should definitely help them get a free blog, fill it up with ads, sell ad space themselves, and tell them to start writing or adding anything they'd like to that. Blogs are the craze right now, and if his/her friends will tell their friends about his/her blog, he/she is sure to start making the big bucks like that.

- Pay to post site
Have you ever heard of Gather.com or MyLot.com? Well if you haven't, then you should know that these two sites will pay their users to chat with cash or with gift cards to very popular stores. These sites are very credible and it's very easy to join. Since you have to be 18 to join these sites though, perhaps you can create an account for your teen and then pass it on once their 18th birthdays come along. They should have a bit of cash saved up on there by then.

- Typing service
Does your teen type more than 50 words per minute? If so, consider making him/her some fliers and posting them around campus, and any college campuses near by. People are always looking for someone who can type fast when they're in a hurry and need to finish typing essays or research papers for class. They can charge by the hour or per word, or per page. This is sure to bring in money, no matter what. Even businesses are looking for typists all the time.
