African American Affiliate Program
African American Passions is part of the Passions Network network of sites, and as such, is part of the Passions Network Affiliate Program. If you have a website focused on the 'African American' community, you can (potentially) make money by promoting our site(s). Details of the program are outlined on the Affiliate page linked above.
Amazon Mechanical Turk
Amazon has created a site based on the idea that there are certain types of tasks better suited to humans than computers. As a 'mechanical turk worker', you can work from home, choose your own work hours, and get paid for doing good work. Examples of tasks include: Selecting the correct spelling for search terms, finding the item number for a product within an image, rating search results for different keywords, choosing categories for products. While the payout for any individual task is very small, there are large numbers of tasks are available, which should make it a little easier to find projects of interest.
Instacart
Instacart provides a number of 'shopper options' for people throughout the country. While this type of job may not be perfect for everyone, it is perfect for some. Check out the details of the Instacart shopping system to see there is an option for you in your local area.
In the past, only professional photographers had the equipment, the knowledge and the ability to make a living from selling photos, but all that has changed in the last few years. The sites listed in this section encourage anyone with a camera and a good eye to upload their photos, which are then made available for purchase. Each site has it's own restrictions and payout details, so it is important to take the time to choose the site (or sites) that might be a good fit for your photos. Rather than detail the differences in each site, we are listing sites recognized as leaders within the online photo marketplace.

OK, this one shouldn't really be listed on this page, because technically, you wouldn't be 'online' when you made money doing this...but we just think it's cool, so we are listing it anyway. We have no idea what level of compensation is available here, but in all likelihood, it's small. The cool thing about this opportunity though, is that 'playtesters' are able to play unreleased video games. The goal is to give the video game developers more information on what is and isn't working within a specific game. As mentioned, this opportunity is a little different than the others listed on this page though, in that the video game testing is not done online...but rather 'in-person'. For the right individual, this could be a fun way to make a little extra cash, and (probably more importantly) enjoy bragging rights (for being able to play video games that haven't been released yet).
