Portable jobs for backpackers

By: Mark Bright

Unless you’re descended from royalty, or better still, an oil baron, then it is fairly likely that you’ll need to make a bit of money while you’re away if you want to travel for an extended period. This article details a few strategies that you can use to keep you going on your travels.

Freelance travel writing.

It’s a dream for a lot of people to travel the world writing about their experiences. However, this is a very competitive field, and as such is quite hard to get into for that reason. It’s not impossible, by any means, but you’d need to be a superb writer, with a unique style and a masterful command of the English language.

Start a website.

Running a web site can be a lot of fun, but did you know you can make money from it, through something known as affiliate marketing, too? And what’s more, you can do this anywhere in the world that has a web hookup!

Although this is not exactly a quick way to make money, as it requires time and effort to establish a website to the point where it is getting enough traffic to earn money from affiliate marketing, there is the potential to make pretty good money if you make a success of it. The web is positively bursting at the (fibre optic) seams with help and advice as to how to do this, but here are a few pointers to get you started:

Pick a subject for your website that you are interested in, and that you think others will be too.

Learn how to design and code a website using HTML or software such as Dreamweaver or Frontpage. You can get books out of the library that will help you to do this

Rent space on a host server for your site. It is better to do this rather than getting ‘free’ space on a server which forces you to include their advertisements and pop up windows, as these can put off potential users and advertisers.

Once your site is up and running try to get some traffic for it by posting links on forums, setting up reciprocal links with other websites, and communicating with bloggers.

Once you have a lot of users, you can add affiliate links and start earning some cash from it. Also, you can use Google’s Adsense to generate even more money.
