Make Money with Smartphone apps


Making money with Smartphone apps is a relatively new way of making some money.  There are really two ways that this can be done.  One way is to create your own app that people will eventually pay for and the other way is to get apps that pay you to do things.

The route I’m going to be talking is the second one which really is the only way I can see myself making money from apps.  If you know your way around coding and other technical things then by all means try making an app and tell me how that goes.

Now there are actually a lot of apps on the market which pay you to do things.  Some of them will work better than others and some will only be available in certain countries, which is kind of annoying.  The key is finding the apps that work for you and that actually pay.

Where can you find these apps?

Finding these apps was one of the harder parts of this whole business.  The best way to find these apps is to go to Google Play, Amazon Apps or iTunes and find the apps that you know about.  From there these websites will suggest other apps which are similar.  They will also show you apps that others have downloaded if they downloaded the apps you know about.  This is a great way to find these apps.

What do you have to do?

Most of these apps will require some form of task to be completed in order to earn money.  Some of the apps will want you to take a survey while others want you to watch videos.  Most of these apps will pay you to download other apps that they recommend.  You can also earn more if you have referrals.  What you are required to do will depend greatly on the app you have chosen. 

How much can you earn?

Honestly you will not become rich off this.  Apps are more of a way to make a little extra.  Of course, if you happen to be a resident of certain countries like America and Canada then you stand the chance of making more.  I highly doubt that you will be able to make a lot of money with apps. 

Making money with your Smartphone is really becoming popular.  The problem is that a lot of apps are country specific so residents of certain countries can make more.  You should also be aware of the fact that lot of these apps are for the iphone and they do not have android versions yet.
