Making money online
Get into the GIG league
Abhishek Joshi
Are you looking for ways to supplement your current income?
Have you been feeling that earning money online could be your thing, but don't know how to go about it?
Have you been sitting on the fence letting apprehensions like Internet fraud grow on you?
Would you love to market your skills online in the global marketplace?
Or are you looking for a fun way to earn some extra dough in your spare time?
If your answer to any of the above questions is "yes", then numerous microjob sites giving you an opportunity to do "gigs" at fixed prices could be just what you've been looking for.
What is it all about?
Simply put, there are websites where people share things they are willing to do for a fixed price tag that could range from $2 to $50 or even more. People list gigs ranging from writing articles, designing website headers, setting up a website and writing a resume to making someone laugh, drawing a caricature or giving expert advice.
How does it work?
You create a gig for a small service you are willing to offer; you share the gig with the world. Every time your gig is ordered and after you successfully complete an order, depending on the website's terms and conditions and after they deduct their cut from the amount the buyer has paid, you could withdraw your earnings through an online payment processor like Paypal (You could sign up for a free Paypal account at Paypal.com).
What gigs can you offer?
Your gig could be in line with your professional expertise or hobby. Or anything else that is worthwhile. Check out other people's gigs for ideas.
You might like to come up with gigs that give you a good return on your time and/or money investment.
And do bear in mind that your gig could be your gateway to a long haul, to getting your gig featured prominently on the website. Make sure you complete your gig within the timeline you've set. Add to it a dash of quality work, and you could soon be having a steady stream of positive feedback for your work which shows up in the testimonials accompanying your gig.
In fact, many sellers make it a point to go the extra mile to attend to their customers' additional requests and avoid negative feedback. After all, avoiding the negatives is as important as getting the positives.
Promoting your gig
Let's face it The micro jobs websites make for a huge marketplace. To make it worth your while, you've got to make your gig stand out. Which "tags" or keywords to use while creating your gig? For a cue, you could have a look at the existing popular gigs in your niche.
When you create your gig, you could add to the gig's description a link pointing to your personal blog. The blog could, in turn, be having your work samples. And you could take advantage of social networking websites, video-sharing websites like YouTube and online forums pertaining to your niche (Clueless? Think google) which allow you to put in a link you wish to promote, in your signature, to get the word out about your gig.
Building on it
Once you've set the ball rolling, sky's the limit. Even if the gig doesn't draw a good response, build on the lessons you learn along the way and you'll find yourself going from strength to strength. Who knows, you might hit upon a goldmine of ideas for gigs, or a big project from a client impressed with your service.
What is a gig?
A gig is a job, especially a temporary one.
On microjob sites, gigs are small tasks that people can do for a fee. These tasks could relate to writing, social networking, search engine optimisation or even programming.
Gigs on microjob sites straddle a range of non-specialised jobs like data entry work
