Make Money on Craigslist

Looking to make some extra money? Why not try what a lot of people are doing, market your products, services, or stuff on Craigslist, or try one of the many businesses listed on Craigslist. If your selling your services, or items, you can specify your location which will help people find you in your town. Cities like Seattle, Chicago, Austin, New York (these are only a few select cities), and Boston have their own unique Craigslist sites, as do most cities around the world. Make a listing of your own merchandise in the "For Sale" section to sell old items such as books, CDs, DVDs and other goods.

According to articles found on the Internet, there are many "out of the ordinary ways to make money on Craigslist." Again, if you're looking for a way to earn extra money, the "Gigs" section has numerous opportunities. There are many people who post inquiries on Craigslist to buy art and solicit odd services from people just like you. One recent posting in the Gigs section was from a woman looking to purchase art for her home. This may be a refreshing opportunity for artists who want to sell their paintings or crafts directly to consumers.

As mentioned before, Craigslist has opportunities and listings in every city around the country. It's easy to find money making opportunities to cash in on. People list all sorts of requests in the "Gigs" section, including menial tasks such as recording a TV program. There was a posting on Craigslist offering $10 to record an NBA basketball game. This is only one of many unbelievable opportunities to make money on Craigslist.

Craigslist attracts a lot of scam artists. So before you start any money making adventure make sure you follow some steps to protect yourself. One on the best ways is to set up a separate email account, one that is unique to your Craigslist business. Using an email address separate from your personal email address will help to keep spam and scams separated from your personal emails. Working an online business does have its challenges, so make sure you do the best job of protecting yourself. The unique email address should be your business email used specifically for making money online.

Some of the money making opportunities on Craigslist do not list complete details, so make sure you do your due-diligence. Call or email the principles. Search Google for information on these individuals. One very important piece of advice is, if they do not list their phone number, or don't want you to call them, run the other way. It's imperative that you get the necessary details up front before promoting any service or merchandise. Also, if you're the one who is selling an item, make sure to provide enough information for buyers. Gather as much information as possible before selecting any money making opportunity.
