Want to make money online without spending any? Well ok, you’ll have to have a computer and an Internet connection, but that’s it!

You won’t need your own website, no paid hosting, nor even a domain name.

So how to get some of that fast money online? Well you take advantage of the web 2.0 sites out there who, for your good original articles, will share some of the income your content produces. Why would they do this? Because they want good original content for their site and you want some extra cash in your pocket, it’s a win-win!

Here are three sites you can write good, original content for and make extra money from:

1. Hubpages.com is a very user friendly site that requires no coding skills at all, and allows a writer to just…write! No adult content is permitted and excessive self-promotion is also a no-no. Hubpages promotes high quality, original content. Hubbers can make money with their articles (hubs) with Google AdSense ads, Kontera contextual ads, Amazon products, eBay products, you can also generate income by driving traffic to other hubbers hubs, and by getting new members to sign-up and create profitable hubs of their own.

2. Squidoo.com is a web 2.0 site setup a lot like hubpages, but does have some notable differences. If you’re tech savy you can do some coding while writing your articles or “lenses” as they are called at Squidoo. They do allow some adult themed lenses as well. You make money on Squidoo by getting clicks on your ads from Amazon, Netflix, eBay, Cafepress, and other advertisers. Join Squidoo today and become a “lensmaster”.

3. InfoBarrel is another web 2.0 site I really like, they are very timely in approving your article for publication and will give a share of any income your article generates. As with most sites that “pay” you for your content InfoBarrel wants high quality, original articles only.

In Conclusion

Not only will these web 2.0 sites generate some online income for you, they also give you a very simple way to “test” the income potential of a keyword or phrase. What do I mean by that? Well if you write a article and find it is a profitable subject, you can easily expand your holdings on that particular keyword, by writing more articles (be sure to link them together), or hubs, or lenses, or perhaps a Blogger blog or two. The trick is to find out what “works” and do it over and over. There is something to be said about becoming your own competition.
