How do Filipinos earn money online? Let us count the ways.

* 1. Google Adsense, etc.

How Filipinos earn money online The most basic way to make money online is to own a site or blog and monetize it by having advertising networks serve ads to the site. Learn how to start a blog here then pepper it with content. The more content, the better. Once you have a decent number of posts, join any of the popular advertising networks Google Adsense, Bidvertiser, and AdBrite. They will give you snippets of codes that you have to add to your sites in order to show the ads. When visitors click on the ads, you get paid. Know the basics of Google Adsense here or share how much you are earning from it by posting in the Google Adsense Earnings Survey thread.

* 2. Selling Ad Space

Some Filipino website owners offer customized packages and lease advertising space directly to advertisers. You need to have valuable and frequently updated content, however, and consistent traffic in order to attract advertisers.

Most of the time, Pinoy publishers merely join ad networks where they sell their ad space. Upon signing up, these networks provide links that are to be posted in the blog or site in order to receive payment. A few examples of these networks include Blog to Profit, Money4Blogs, Chitika, Crisp Ads, grokAds, Tagword, and Text Link Ads.

* 3. Paid Blogging

Rather than write mushy, self-centric, or showbiz-crazed stuff, a few Pinoy writer-bloggers use their creative juices to publish short reviews of a product, website, or service. Of course, they get paid in the process. Two of the popular sites where you can become a paid blogger are ReviewMe and PayPerPost.

* 4. Paid Outsourced Service (Content writing, programming, web design, SEO services)

Several Filipinos hang out in sites like Rent-a-Coder, Scriptlance, Getafreelancer, and eLance to offer programming, content writing, web design, or search engine optimization (SEO) services for a fee. Competition among fellow for-hires, though, is tough but once a good reputation is built, clients will ultimately follow. Learn how some PMT members are successfully earning as home-based freelancers in the Freelancers and Home-Based Workers board in the forum.

* 5. Affiliate Marketing

Sell someone else’s products and earn commissions for every lead or sale. A few have found luck earning regular income as affiliates of Commission Junction, LinkShare, ShareaSale, and previously Clickbank. Discuss strategies with other Pinoy affiliate marketers in the Internet and Affiliate Marketing board.

* 6. Online Selling

The bustling activity in eBay.ph, Auction.ph, Sulit.com.ph and Bidshot.com is a testament to the growing number of Filipino sellers. Sell your stuff by posting in eBay, transforming a Multiply account into an online shop, or setting up a full-fledged e-commerce site. Drop by the Online Auctions, Selling and Dropshipping board for more stories of Pinoys in the online selling arena.

* 7. HYIP and Autosurf Investing

If you are the gambler type, “investing” in autosurf or high yield investment programs (HYIP) might be for you. For a short period of time, you can earn double, triple, or even 10,000 times your principal without doing anything or, at the most, “autosurfing” other people’s websites. Beware, though, because 99% of these online “investment” programs are scams.

* 8. Get-paid-to (GPT) Programs

Not a lot of income can be expected here, but absolutely no cash outlay is needed either. Earn a few cents after several minutes (sometimes hours) of clicking links and reading advertisement emails. To meet fellow GPTers, go to the Free-to-Join Get-Paid-To Programs or visit the GPT Programs Discussion board to access a list of programs that are currently paying.

These are just some of the tips that I can give you, there are many more ways to make money online, and sooner or later you’ll gonna realize that you can also earn something when you are online, instead of wasting time surfing the internet.
