I have been hard hit by the recent meltdown. I really do not know how to make ends meet. I have bills and insurance premiums to pay every month. I am desperately looking for some additional income. Any suggestions?

I am not sure this is the way to go. If you can write, I would consider marketing yourself on line as an article and content writer. There is no initial investment, as there are plenty of sites where you can pick up work.

Unless you've couple of premium domain names, buying and selling domains might be a costly procedure, if you've knowledge of fair market value of domains, do domain appraisal by joining with someone who are veteran in domain industry.

Domain trading is a difficult business to break into. It's just like working in real estate — if you don't know enough about what you're doing, you'll end up losing money instead of earning it. My suggestion would be to find your strengths and capitalize on that. If you have some writing skills, then why not try freelance article writing, like Piniella says. Or if you're good in graphics and web design, then do that. You could also try affiliate marketing, but that's also the kind of business where you really need to work at in order to succeed, since there's a lot of competition in it.

I agree that this really isn't going to make you a quick fortune unless you've got something special. It seems a lot of people are now trying to work domain flipping, and with the competition you'd have to really stand out.

Inaddition to the ways stated by others, there are multiple websites that offer fair amount of money for completing their tasks. Such companies can be searched in SE's, you can search for the keywords "WOrk At Home". You can manage your time as per your will and earn an additional income.

But, affiliates is a better alternative and I guess eUKhost too offers such programs. They offer 20% commission to their affiliates. I would better not comment more on this, let somebody from them explain you the affiliate program.

The point that someone made about selling domains being like real estate is pretty accurate, unless you know what you're doing it's not recommended. Also, right now I don't think domains are being valued at their true potential due to the economy and due to this, you might not get as much as you should so it might be better to wait unless you desperately need some money and have some domains lying around that you don't plan on developing anytime soon.
