When you are a new blogger, you (generally) don’t have the capital to start. Well, not everyone needs a starting capital. But if you are serious about making money online, then you just might need some cash for at least a domain name and a hosting plan.

When you start, you don’t need a lot of money, but you need it fast. So you need to focus on programs and sites that have low (to no) minimum payout and that pay you to do simple things. If you want to use AdSense to earn that first amount, when you are just starting, you are probably going the wrong way. On the other hand, PTC (Paid-To-Click) sites are the way to go, but not only.

I have compiled a list of sites and ways to use in order to earn some money to get you started :

1 - Quickrewards : I discovered this site not so long ago. It pays you to visit websites, to take surveys, to sign up for free offers, and a lot more. And the great thing is : IT HAS NO MINIMUM PAYOUT whatsoever. With surveys alone you can make $2 to $3 daily, that you can transfer to your PayPal account right away. Ideal for earning some quick money to get you going. I highly recommend it.
2 - Bidvertiser : It is a substitute to AdSense. Why I mention it is because it has a low payout of $10 that you can quickly reach.
3 - ProjectWonderful : It allows people to advertize 125×125 buttons on your blog by bidding. You earn small amounts in the beginning but it also has a low payout of $10. Another good thing is that you can immediately reuse the earned money to advertize your blog on other blogs and generate more traffic. Needless to say that more traffic = more money.
4 - My Home Page Friends : This program pays you to search. You perform Internet searches as usual and instead of earning absolutely nothing, you earn some cents per search. The minimum payout is £20. (Yes they pay in GBP, which is great when conversion to USD is made ) With a searching activity of 30 searches per day, you can reach the payout in a month or so.

Once you have a little starting capital, you can reinvest some of it to even generate more money with programs liks :
5 - Dollars for life : It costs $19 to join. Then you earn $9 per referral and you earn random $5 payments.
6 - Income 4 Beginners : It costs $40 to buy a branded e-book that you can resell again and again to generate recurring payments of $40.

I hope this helps.

PS: You can join the RSS contest I am holding for a chance to win $10 or free advertising. It is also a great way of earning some cash. Only one week to go, hurry and secure your entries.
