I need to make about $1000 a month. I don't mind putting in time or effort but I would like to work at home and I don't have the financies to invest in anything right now? Does anyone have any ideas?

What are your skills and experience. There are many companies that offer customer service and transcription jobs

I think I have pretty good typing skills, and I can trouble shoot some computer problems. The only experience I have, though, is personal. I have fixed my mom's and a couple of my friends computers; but that's about it. Nothing professional.

You can try:

to build a Blog (www.blogger.com)
get some clickbank information
use Traffic Exchang to get attention
Adsense

Cheers,
Wolney

Give freelance writing a try.

Another option you could consider is marketing online, i guess this is what wolney suggested but you would need to find someone who would be willing to teach you how it all work or pay a little out for the information, This however takes time so if you don't have much time then freelance writing could be better suited for you

Look at GDI it is only $10/month. I know that you said you have nothing to invest but if you could scrape together $10/month you could use forums, article marketing and blogging as free forms of marketing. These types of marketing are very effective if you are consistent and persistent, but they do take more time than most paid types of advertizing. Write down your goals and "why" and you can acheive them regardless of the opportunity.

To success,

Harold

If you enjoy writing you could always set yourself up on some of the freelance websites to be hired to write articles and such. OR you could start a blog, and try to generate income from it.

From your description of skills these two seem to be the best options for you. Any other skills you might add?

Some of the hosting companies hire telecommute workers for customer support

Are you looking to start your own business or do you want to make $1,000 working for someone else?

You can check out the opportunity with GDI! It costs a measly $10/month. It might not be for you or it could be what you were looking for!

Hey kid, download BlueVoda. It's a free website builder. You do it off line but it looks the same as it would online. If you get the hang of it, you can build some really professional looking sites. Show your mom, and if she likes it, ask her to pony up the 8 bucks a month for you to get it hosted on the internet. You'll know in a month if you'll make money or not. But if you can tinker with pc's, I would make a good bet that you have the talent, whether you have the drive to keep your nose to the grindstone for a couple of weeks is up to you. Yes it only takes an average person 2-4 weeks to learn and market their site. Not THE average person but AN average person, if you get my drift.
