Freelancing
I put freelance work first because it's something you can start today with zero up-front investment. And if you take the time to move beyond writing – and master a specialized, in-demand skill – you can easily earn 5-figures per month. That's the good news.
The bad news is that the freelance world is fiercely competitive. To give you an idea of just how competitive it is, there are over 303,748 contractors in the writing category on one freelance site alone (Upwork)!
Here are Just a few of the Most in-demand freelance positions:
Writing
Include writing blog posts, articles, ebooks, print books, brochures, newsletters, booklets, white papers, special reports, package information, advertising copy and press releases.
Graphic Design
Include web design, print design, packaging infographic, logos, vectors, corporate identity, videography and business design
Programming

Affiliate Marketing
Who says you need your own product to make money online? Top affiliate marketers like Pay Flynn and John Chow make enviable 6-figure incomes by recommending other people's products. The great thing about an affiliate marketing is that you can make money fairly quickly as there's no need to become an expert or struggle with product development.
It's important to note that due to the low barrier to entry and ridiculous margins, affiliate marketing is quite competitive.

Click Bank
Click Bank is one of the recommended largest platforms for digital goods on Earth. Super-reliable payments (they've paid out nearly 2 billion dollars to their publishers and affiliates over the last 10 years) and a wide selection of products in every niche make Clickbank the place to get your feet wet as an affiliate. Makeup to 75% per sale.

Amazon Associates
Amazon Associates is the program that started it all. As an “Amazon Associate” you cut will be significantly less than Clickbank or CJ, But you can make bank promoting Amazon products. Depending on the volume you push to them, you can make up to 8.5% per sale.
eBay Partner Network
This program doesn't get a log of buzz, but it can be very lucrative in the right niches [high-tech, electronics, expensive collectibles etc.], Worth checking out.
Promot Things you love
It's much more rewarding to promote things that you actually use and enjoy. If there's a product you love, see if there's an affiliate program already set up. If not, many businesses are willing to set one up for people that can drive significant amounts of traffic.
CPA Marketing
CPA is affiliate marketing's less famous cousin. The only difference between the two is that, with CPA, you get paid when someone performs an “action”... which is often free for the user. Example include getting a quote on insurance, signing up to a website or requesting information on online colleges. If done right CPA can be very lucrative.

Site flipping is a newer way to make money online that's making some people very rich. In a nutshell, you're buying web real estate at a low price and then flipping it for up to 100x the original price. Of course, like any real estate, you'll need to put in plenty of “sweat equity” in order to increase the value of your properties.
