More and more people are trying to use the Internet not only for entertainment, but also to turn it into a source of income. To earn decent money, comparable even with income in the main job, you need special knowledge and skills. This is how programmers, designers and copywriters earn money.
There is another way - to organize a business on the Web. The income does not have a ceiling. On the Web, you have access to a multimillion-dollar audience for ridiculous money - compare the costs of advertising on the Internet and on television for clarity.
However, this approach has a significant minus - you need start-up capital investments. Yes, it is cheaper than organizing a traditional business, but money will still be required, and rather big.
And what about those who are not versed in programming, design, copywriting and are not ready to invest money? Is it really impossible to make money without complicated skills and starting investments?
Just such options are discussed below. All of them do not require starting investments and special skills, but they will have to spend a lot of time. Especially at the initial stage. It's about making money on downloading.
Of course, you won’t be able to earn millions in a few days. But you can pay for the same Internet in a month. And then you can scale the process to infinity.
Earnings on file hosting
Everyone at least once downloaded something on the Internet: new music, an interesting movie or book. By clicking the “Download” button on any website, rarely does anyone think about where the file is physically located and where the link to which it clicked leads.
And she leads to a file hosting service. In simple words, it’s just a repository where certain files are located. There are millions of such files. And each of them someone posted there - "flooded", speaking a professional language.
If the file is interesting, for example a new movie, or useful, they will often download it. And the file hosting service is ready to pay the money to the person who posted it, for every thousand of such downloads. Many hope in this way to earn money.
The more popular the file, the higher the desire to download it. Accordingly, more people will pay for premium access - the ability to download quickly and without ads. And for those who still decide to receive the file for free, advertisers will pay.
It is advantageous for a file hosting service to upload popular files to it. After all, they are in high demand. However, no one will do it for free. Therefore, it is necessary to share part of the profit.
At first glance, everything is simple. You need to find an interesting file and “upload” it to the file hosting service. The procedure is no more complicated than downloading something from the Internet. Only in reverse order.
However, the audience still needs to know about this file. To do this, prescribe keywords by which the file can be found in the search.
But this is not enough. To attract really big traffic, you will have to advertise a link to a file, wherever possible: on special "distributors", on social networks, on forums.
This method of promotion requires a significant investment of time. You need to look for sources where you can download hype files and advertise your links.
If you select content wisely, for example, upload movie premieres, the number of downloads of each file can reach tens of thousands per day. So, if 1000 downloads cost 300 rubles, for 10,000 downloads you will receive 3,000 rubles. And this is from just one file. And if you fill them with at least 10 per day?
How to find files that will often download?
The hardest part of this way of earning is finding the right files. There are several ways:
- Use the latest ratings of the most popular films and programs - they will certainly be in demand;
- use statistics on "warezniks";
- use high-tech videos from YOU TUBE and other video hosting sites - there are programs that allow you to save videos from YOU TUBE or VKontakte to your computer, but not everyone knows about them and knows how to use them;
- great if you have access to rare music or movies.
To make a decent profit, just upload at least 10 files every day. And you need to pay attention not to quantity, but to quality. Only rare and useful files will be downloaded continuously. So, you will receive passive income for several months.
How to advertise links to your files
Another important point is the attraction of traffic. The audience should find out what utilities you have prepared for it.
It’s not enough just to flip the link to the movie. To collect really decent traffic, you will have to come up with a “tasty” description - such that the movie would be wanted to be stored on your computer right now.
The same goes for software. We'll have to move the gyrus and come up with news for the "warez", which will attract attention to your link.
How to scale a business and increase revenue
The money you earn can be used to advertise - post posts with your link in the VKontakte or Instagram thematic groups, write a review about a program and post it with your link on a top blog.
All this will require some investment, but the potential return can be huge. Having spent it once, you will receive passive income for a long time.
In the future, you can create your own "store" or start a blog where to publish reviews of popular programs and their ratings. At the same time post a download link in the same place. You can also create your own movie or music portal. In fact, there are many options, but this is for advanced users.
Another way to make money on file hosting: for the lazy
There is another way to earn money by downloading files - to share part of the money earned. For example, for 1000 downloads file hosting pays 300 rubles, and you give half to the partner.
Earnings by downloading various files to a computer is very popular. Not everyone has access to interesting files and time to advertise them. Therefore, you can easily recruit a team of several thousand people who agree to work for you. You can do this through the same social networks.
The next step is to “upload” the files. They pay only for unique downloads, so you have to upload at least 1000 files so that your partner is interested in working - 150 rubles a day will already allow you to pay for the Internet.
In addition, each file must be downloaded 1000 times, and from unique IP addresses. Accordingly, in order to get paid, you will need a team of 1000 people.
Yes, your partners will have to pay for a premium account. But downloading 1000 files at a good speed is not difficult. According to experience, it takes 2-3 hours.
Now let's count. Suppose you recruited a team of 1000 people. Each of them downloads 1000 files. This will bring you a minimum of 300 rubles each. Of these, 150 rubles is the salary of your partner. And your income will be 150 x 1000 = 150 000 rubles.
Please note that these are the minimum rates. So Depositfiles.com pays up to 2,700 rubles per 1,000 downloads of a file with a volume of over 1 GB. If you constantly “upload” new files and find at least 100 new partners every day, then your income will constantly grow.
Popular file sharing
Here is a list of trusted file hosting sites:
- TurboBit
- Hitfile
- Letitbit,
- DepositFiles
- Wupload.
To begin with, these five will be quite enough. And you get not only money for every 1000 downloads, but also a percentage of the sale of premium accounts. And this is a nice additional bonus.
Earnings on downloading applications
Today, application developers offer to earn and owners of smartphones. Each service needs testing. And the developers are willing to pay for it.
Earnings on the download will not make you a millionaire. On average, you can get from 3 to 10 rubles, depending on the task: download the application, test its operation or set grades. Moreover, earnings on downloading iOS applications are slightly higher.
It’s not possible to make a decent profit on this, but after spending 2-3 hours a day, you can forget about paying for your mobile.
The process of making money on downloading iOS or Android consists of several stages:
- register on a site that offers tasks;
- Install the application for managing tasks on your smartphone;
- receive and complete the task;
- receive and withdraw payment.
Only owners of smartphones with sufficient RAM and physical memory will be able to earn on downloading Android and IOS applications. Otherwise, the process will take up too much time and nerves.
Verified sites for money
Here is a list of reliable resources that offer to earn on downloading applications:
- Payforinstall.ru,
- ProfitTask.com,
- Appbonus.ru.
These sites have been steadily paying for several years. There you can always find tasks for Android and IOS platforms.
To summarize
As you can see, it’s still possible to make money on the Web without special skills and investments. But for this you have to invest your own time.
When choosing a site for making money downloading files or applications, pay attention to average prices. If a resource offers a payment that is significantly higher than the market average, you should be wary.
Perhaps you are offered to download a file that is infected with a virus. This is especially true of making money on downloading on Android or IOS platforms - attackers often try to gain access to your smartphone in this way.
To avoid this situation, use the proven resources discussed above.
