6 ways to make money from the internet
Here are ways to make money online for beginners:
1. Fill out an online survey
Filling out online surveys can be an easy way to increase
your online income without having to spend capital. You can try it as a
beginner, even if you are still a student.
On websites like SurveyOn, YouGov, or iPanel Indonesia, you
can fill out surveys and get points which can later be exchanged for money or
shopping vouchers.
To get started, simply create an account on the platform,
complete your profile, fill out the available surveys, and exchange points for
the rewards offered. You will usually also need to have an international
payment account such as PayPal to receive the rewards offered.
2. Earn Money from Live Streams
Live streaming can be an opportunity to earn money on the
internet by utilizing your skills or hobbies. Use platforms like TikTok,
YouTube, and Twitch to earn money from live streams.
Some live stream topics that have a lot of viewers include
live stream games, music and talk shows. To earn income, you can place a
donation link, create a subscription system and advertise.

For example, if you're live streaming a game, try following your audience's
suggestions for doing certain actions in the game to make them feel more
involved.
3. Selling Preloved Items
Selling items you no longer use can be a source of
additional income. You can use websites such as Facebook Marketplace,

photos, write a clear description including the size and shortcomings of your
product, determine a competitive selling price, and promote it in various media
to attract buyers.
4. Become a Content Creator

promising source of online income. Platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, or

direct sales, or monetization.
