Online money making has emerged as one of the largest searched terms on the web in the last few years. And it is quite obvious. The rising standards of living all around the world and the growing awareness about the internet has made it possible to earn handsome income sitting at home.
And the channel that has been most popular to earn this much cash sitting at home in front of their computer is blogging. The way blogging has caught attention of the people all around the world has been remarkable. Last few years have seen the rise of many full time bloggers and in spite of this much competition, their income is always increasing. But its not possible for every one to have their own blog because of money and time constraints. But still there are ways through which you can make money even if you do have your own blog.
There are lots of other opportunities for who ever have talent and desire to succeed. Let’s look at them below.
Become A Paid Writer
This is one of the easiest ways to make money. But it is easy only when you have exceptional writing talent. There are unlimited opportunities available for those who write well. People and companies are continuously looking for content writers, editors and community moderators. Digital Point Forum is one such place where you can find huge writing opportunities that suit you and your area & style of writing. You do not need any blog and the complications that come with it. Just register yourself, start writing and collect cash.
Become A Co-Author Or Blog Editor
There are many people who can write but they do not have time to pay attention to other aspects of blogging such as designing, monetization, plugins etc. For these people, multi author blogs are the best option. You register with these blogs and write continuously. Your efforts could also help you become the editor of the blog and take part in the administration of the blog. Moreover, the icing on the cake is that if you are writing on an Adsense revenue sharing blog and you have your own Adsense publisher id; the added Adsense income is a complete bonus.
Take Part In Guest Blogging Contests
The way guest posting has overcome the other free methods of traffic generation and blog promotion is laudable. Although, some may disagree that you have to sacrifice one of your best posts for this, the traffic that it sends to your blog is incomparable.
And these days, there are lots of bloggers holding guest blogging contest at their blog and offering unbelievable cash prizes and other stuff. While most of the things are relevant for bloggers, the cash prizes are truly awesome. All you need to do is to find a guest blogging contest in a niche that you like and feel comfortable with, post good quality content regularly, complete the formalities you need to enter the contest and wait for the result.
IN THE END
If you do not have a blog, it does not mean that your chances of earning online are nil. On the contrary, the above mentioned ways can get you money from the onset where as the blogging takes time. So think about what you are capable of and get set go.

Well, if you have an exceptional writing talent, why not take advantage of that particular skill in earning money through blogs for yourself rather than making other people earn passive and recurring income from what you have written for them. But there’s no doubt that being a paid writer earns well, it’s just that the job will obliged you to write exceptionally every time, unlike writing for yourself, where you can expand your horizons in experimenting your styles in writing as well as in designing. By the way, you have mentioned great ways to earn cash without the need of your own webspace 🙂 I especially liked the idea of co-authoring, that’s something that I should try as well. Great thoughts Tushar! 5-star!

You are right Tushar, once does not need a blog to earn money online but having a blog is like having a tool that makes earning money online easier. The ways you have mentioned are all true. Ghost-Writing is in a lot of demand and once can earn good amount of money from it. Co-Editoring and Participating in Blogging Contests is also a good way of doing it. Then there is freelancing if you are good in creative and programming stuffs. There is a lot of money in the Internet to be leveraged just you need to know the tricks of the trade 😉 Good post bro

I read al the comments and find t curious that no one mentioned what I’m about to mention. Of course, i could be the one confused here. lol
#1 Become A Paid Writer is an awesome example of money with no blog. Although you should have some sort of site displaying your services.
However, I don’t understand #’s 2-3.
How does Becoming A Co-Author Or Blog Editor make you handsome money? Does the blog admin pay you a salary? Especially since you said the adsense sharing is merely a “bonus”.
The same for Taking Part In Guest Blogging Contests. Sure IF you win you might take home some cash now and then, but hardly steady, and for the most part, hardly “handsome”.
Please explain if I’m missing something here, it wouldn’t be the first time. lol

Among all the 3 ways here, the first one is the best for me because I have interest in wrting products reviews.
In fact, apart from the 3 good ways above, there are still many useful ways to make money online without blog.
For example, All people can earn money with Adsense on HubPages; Or, publish as many as topics on myLot to earn extra money.

Yes without blogging there are many opportunities of make money. If you are a good content writer then you can really make very good money rather than a blogger. In every internet marketing field content is the basic requirement. Without content blogger can not blog, SEO can not optimize keyword or online marketer can not market their products. You can even demand for good money if you are one experienced writer.

In my experience, the best way to make money online is through affiliate marketing. Blogging is good, but involves way too much time as well as patience.
According to me freelancing is really a nice opportunity to earn money without having our own blog. In my point of view don’t go for guest blogging to win prices, I hate those contest because they cancel their price at anytime.
