Tutoring

There are lots of sites advertising for freelance roles, try www.freelancer.com.

Online Trading

One of the most popular part time business models for home workers nowadays is online trading, especially with the rise of marketplaces like eBay because it’s so easy to do! You don’t have to be an I.T genius to do it, you just set up an online account and your good to go. If you have a talent for arts and crafts then you could sell your designs, if not then you could do the old fashioned thing of selling your old clothes. Either way there is potential to earn a fair bit of money.

Hosting

Do you have a spare room in your home going to waste? Well why not make good use of it and turn it into a business?
