As a teen, here are some tips on how to make money online.
Many websites demand participants to be at least 18 years old, and those that are open to children may not be trustworthy or worth your time. Before signing up, it's critical to understand the details. Here's everything you need to know about five popular moneymaking sites for teenagers to help you make the best decision.

- Freelancing
There are websites that might help you start a freelancing business if you have a skill that people might pay for, such as writing, coding, or managing social media accounts. The following is an overview of the two alternatives offered to teenagers:
(1) Fiverr
This site is intended more toward professional, full-time freelancers and is available to users aged 13 and up. Teens, on the other hand, can list a variety of services, such as drafting letters for a marketing campaign and mentoring individuals through difficult video game levels. Gigs, or listings, start at $5, but you may charge whatever you like. You get paid 80% of your listing price, with the remaining 20% going to Fiverr, and there are additional costs depending on how you withdraw your profits.
(2) Freelancer.com
With over 1,350 categories to select from, including Photoshop, design, and data entry, kids may make money on this site in a variety of ways. It usually helps to have a portfolio of work to show off your abilities. However, depending on the category you select, this may or may not be required.
- Buying and selling items
Large online marketplaces can link you to a wide range of buyers if you have goods to sell - interesting stuff you've manufactured or items hanging in your closet that you're prepared to part with. If you wish to sell something online, here are two places to consider:
(1) Etsy
If you want to sell art or homemade items, this is usually the first place you should look. LeiLei Secor, the owner of DesignedByLei on Etsy, began selling her handcrafted jewellery there the summer before her junior year of high school. Her earnings, which have topped six figures, have since been utilised to pay for education.
(2) EBay
To sell on eBay, you'll need to have permission to use someone's account who is at least 18 years old. When you create a listing, you have the option of setting the price or allowing individuals to put bids. You can establish a starting price for auction-style listings to secure a profit. An auction-style listing is usually the greatest option if you're selling anything unusual on the site. Aside from that, fixed-price ads are the best option.
