How Can Kids Make Money Online?

[FlorenceWWebb]

Is there any online home based business opportunity for kids?

Basically, kids can make money online the same way adults do. There are many business models which are easy enough that at least teenagers should be able to make money with them.

Kids could offer their services:article writing, link building, forum commeting, video creation etc on forums. Or if we talk about affiliate marketing, which they can also do, they just need an adult who would create an account for them- most affiliate networks require that the affiliate is at least 18 years old.

They can promote websites for kids in social networks.

Technically (or legally) should kids be earning money in this way? I'm not sure how it is in your countries, but you can not enter into a binding contract with a minor here.

Anyway, forget the kids - how can I earn more money online!! LOL!

I'm not sure on how it would be done cause I'm not a lawyer but I'm sure there are work arounds. Like maybe your parents to open a company, and have the kid work as an employee for them under the company name and use the companies EIN instead of their SSN.

The legal working age here in America is 16, so I suppose anyone 16 or older could do this.

If this really was an issue though I would consult a lawyer on how it would be done exactly.

I don't think kids allow to work in an online business. They should be 18 years old above.

I’ve seen kids doing online business by providing services on microjobs sites. Some are selling their pre-loved collections of toys, collectible items and others. They can also sell crafted items on Etsy too. Legally, I think they need the permission or supervision from their parents. Please check with your local authorities on this matter before doing so.
