I think one can easily make money online for living and without any site is from FIVERR. You need to be creative to provide some unique services in fiverr. If you study the top sellers in fiverr they have made thousands of dollars every month just sitting at home. Now they have opened up some services like video creation services for selling at higher prices not for just $5. So if your really serious in making money online then the best place for you to start is fiverr.
Fiverr is a good source to start.
But theres now need to uniqueness about your service you post on there for demand, since theres so much people on there already.
Not that its bad or anything, just a bit harder. I personally would rather just sell something off ebay and get something cheap from craigslist or goodwill.
