So I dont know how this question would be read but im thinking if there a way to earn a few dollars online, Im talking about a minimum money to be used on indie bundles, so it needs to have a paypal checkout.

Youtube partnership, Google AdSense and pretty much everything reliant on advertising.

Youtube partnership, yea, do you think, that it's piece of cake? :P You have to build your audience first, get lots of subscribers and videos views etc. That means releasing interesting content in short periods of time constantly and that's not easy task for everyone.

AdSense - again, bind it to popular website and here you go. Simple as that ;)

Oh no, not AdSense. They banned me for some reason once. I received a generic email putting the fault on me (basically "here's what you could have done to get yourself banned:) and when I tried to appeal, they never answered. I still don't know what happened.

I looked into that, looked like a lot of time for almost no money...but what did I expect lol.

Curious, how much time do you spend for that 50 a month?

Just trying oDesk and if the hirer doesn't provide enough information, the only option I have is to apply to ask, which is pretty pointless when I'm not even sure I can do the job or not...

Too bad a lot of them never even sell 1% of that. Needs some viral marketing to get popular.

Terraria had almost none, it just got caught in the back drift of minecraft, basically, make a game involving block destroying and making strucutres out of blocks, polish it up and you got a winner.

Write articles for websites. They'll pay you based on the amount of hits it gets. Suite101 is a good place to start. Can write about anything, including gaming. The crux is that it must be informative/helpful.

With proper skills you can do proper earning,

First think of what's best you can do on internet, your skills that can be used online. (Like using photoshop)

Than search for communities where you can connect, meet people, exchange skills and ideas, and show your knowledge.

Make some samples of that what you can do, and start offering professional service.

Every beginning is very hard, but eventually if you are good you can find your way to do it like a regular job, not only partially.

You can do this with everything you know in real life. Make games, Make promotions, Make marketing solutions, Make images, Make templates, Make online sales, Make advertising, etc...

I for one translate stuff into French (Waterfalltranslations.com if anyone is interested), mostly games and anything to do with computing due to my expertise with the industry.

Now that I'm done bragging, I can suggest doing this too in any language you feel you know well (I have to admit I know both languages at a native level). Most devs offer a free copy of the game for your translation, but you'd be a fool not to ask for a minimum payment; they have the means to provide it and, hey, a single word is worth 0.12 euros (I lower that to 0.06 with indie devs). Out of one thousand words, which is MUCH less than what most games hold, you get 120 euros. Somewhat (this isn't entirely true) the copy cost you 100-110 euros.

Don't work for peanuts, know what you're worth!

Out of curiousity: Does this work out for you? How many requests do you get?

My website is not ranked at all, and there's much more translators on the market than what I had anticipated - it's hard to get clients :(

I'm not very active mind you, this isn't my main source of income. Therefore I contact most of my clients, and the return rate (that is the people I contacted who contact me back) is very low; most seem to think it's a scam :( (possibly because I do not have a page with my clients, but that would be a very bad decision, business-wise).

I contact them because there's also the fact that most of your clients are gonna be receiving a lot of applicants, and they'll choose either the cheapest (which is not always the best), or the big multinational agency.

There's also the problem of hiring a translator for internet stuff. I'd love to be the kind of translator who only gets to work on games and websites, but the problem with that is my clients would then need to hire french-speaking administrators and technicians. The day Steamgifts is translated in French there's gonna be support tickets in French, and therefore French mods will be needed.

All in all, I made very little revenue from this trade. Not even enough to buy a triple A game in almost a year. I could have easily made much more if I had put some more time and money into this, and it's definitely a career path that's not gonna disappear for a long time. Ah well, you know where to find me.

Thanks for your answer! I can imagine that there is some competition in such a globalised profession, considering that many people live in countries with lower cost of living. Do you do it for fun right now or are you planning on making it your job some time? Best of luck!

I use superpoints $5-10 a week, its not much, but its more than enough to buy games i want when they're on sale for midweek madness. They pay to paypal every Monday or Tuesday, which works out perfectly!

Invite only. There's a link to join on my profile.
