I have been unemployed since February 12th of 2009 and am now looking for a full time job while being on the internet. If you have any ideas or websites you can give me to use for making around 400 a month that wouldbe great. Please remember that i need it to be a free sign up as i can not spend money singing up on sites. I am already a member on associated content and bukisa and then i do many paid to click sites as well. If you can suggest me some other sites that would be wonderful as i need the money desperately bad.

If i had stuff to sell i would be doing that, at the time i have nothing. My bills are important to me and i need to pay them of course, but i need money to do so. I am going tommorrow to his company that sells insurane and then they have their customers calling you to give them their information and what not. It only pays 9 dollars an hour but right now it is better than nothing and i could probably save some money from that at least if it doesnt work out the best. I used to work for this company 8 years ago so im going to try it out again, kinda hard to think about that i worked there while i was in high school and now i have gone to college and have a college degree and i can't find anything out their.

My wife came across a story in the November 2009 Woman's Day magazine. It is on making money online. It is on pages 146 and 150 in that magazine. It mentions different ideas, but the one that may help you are the sites onlineverdict.com, and trialpractice.com. I guess some lawyers are gathering focus groups of people and doing mini mock trials. Supposedly you listen or read through cases and give your opinion. There are other things too like medical encoding. The medical encoding site is aapc.com. It is in that magazine, so if you have a lcal library you may be able to find it there. Good luck. I have been unemployed for 7 months and I'm just starting a new job on Monday. I hope things get better for you.

Since October 2006 i have been unemployed but as the trend of computers been very rampant and everyone is using it, i try to do the online selling, i have it done in some free networking sites. I started first to Re-Sell items from some sellers over in multiply site until i have slowly started on my own, purchasing and buying direct from suppliers, I don't purchase it yet but i do have it as a pre order, so i will only order those items that somebody will buy it. And this is working for me, that's why I still continue it until now. And this mylot wherein i was a member for a year ago, i came back now to concentrate here in my free time.

I've been unemployed for almost a year also.The last time I worked was last April.It's been so long.There really isn't many jobs and I never get picked for a job because there are alot of other people trying for the same one.They just don't seem to pick me for the job.I've had interviews and they always say they'll call and never do.

Since you already have an AC account, I recommend you try the following:
QandAs.com for 300-word articles at about $3 each.
Demand Studios for nonfiction articles of various kinds. Payment ranges from $5-15.
Factoidz also publishes nonfiction articles, and they promote well. They prefer first publication rights, but once published the material can also be posted to AC, as Factoids only gets non-exclusive rights. They pay per hit, but the rate of views is higher than AC.
AOL.com hires writers as well. Requirements and payment vary.
If you write fiction, check out Flash Fiction, which publishes short stories.
All of the above are English-only sites, and they all require a strong mastery of English and North American idiom. If you are looking to make $400 a month, that's only $100 a week or less. I know people who make a living working online in the United States, so if you write well and reasonably quickly, you can make that much or more.
All the best.

That must be so tough. I've only been unemployed for a few months, and I already find that bad enough, so I cannot imagine what a whole year must feel like
Hopefully the economy should start picking up soon, and you can get back to work in no time
