Here's an easy way to make $500 monthly from home fast...

What could you do with an extra $500 a month?

For many of us, an extra $500 a month can be very helpful.

It could pay the car payment, in some cases it could be half of the mortgage payment, you could pay off some debt with it.

The point is, we can all use an extra $500 a month.

Her at MoneyPantry, we’re always sharing awesome ways to earn extra money including a post on how to make $1000 monthly.

But how do you make that extra five hundred dollars a month when you already have a full-time job?

When you really don’t have much free time to devote to a new money-making opportunity?

If you have an extra 1-2 hours a week, I am going to show you a very simple way you can make an additional $500 per month without investing a dime or getting a part-time job.

How Can I Earn $500 Monthly Online?

Easy, use Listverse!

What is Listverse?

It’s a website that publishes list posts. Like “top 10 ways to do X” OR “20 things you didn’t know about X”. You know, the kind of posts that frequently go viral.

And they cover almost any topic you can imagine.

It’s a very popular site with thousands of daily visitors reading lists on various topics every day.

I am always looking out for extra money-making opportunities to share with you, and ListVerse provides a great opportunity for almost anyone to make some quick cash.

Let me explain…

This is a site that centers around publishing lists, no matter what the topic is.

And they are among the many sites that pay you to write. But unlike the other sites, they only publish lists posts and are willing to pay you up to $100 per list!

You have to create a first-class list of at least ten items, like “10 best colleges in Europe”, “10 engineering disasters of the modern world” and so on.

The length of your articles should be at least one thousand words.

If they approve your list, they pay you $100.

It is as simple as that…

Make a list they like and get paid $100!

The Rules

To be approved, your list has to be indeed original and produced by you.

You need not be a professional writer.

As long as you have good command over English language and narrate interesting and odd thing with a bit of humor, it’ okay.

It is important to point out that the site publishes only original articles.

You are not permitted to upload infographics, slide shows or revised blog content.

You are free to choose your preferred topic but the post has to be over 1500 words.

If they find your writing worth publishing you are paid $100!

How Does Listverse Pay?

They used to offer both PayPal and Bitcoin as payment options. But at the time of this writing, the company only offers payments via PayPal. So you must have a PayPal account to get paid.

Don’t have a PayPal account? Don’t worry, you can create one for free. And I highly recommend that you do create a PayPal account especially if you like making extra money online. These days, most websites, including surveys and rewards sites, pay by PayPal.

Plus, there are so many easy ways to make PayPal money that you don’t want to miss out on just because you don’t have a PayPal account.

How Do I Apply?

You can get more details about the process and how to send the list in, by visiting their official Write & Get Paid page.

There is no application really.

You simply write your list, then you can send it in.

If they like it, they’ll publish it and send you $100 via PayPal or Bitcoin, whichever you choose.

A Few Tips

If you are really serious about making money through Listverse, I would suggest browsing their lists first. This will help you understand their compositions and the level of the quality they like.

The most preferred lists of Listverse for which they pay, meaning the ones that their readers love the most are typically offbeat. For example “Top 10 Ways College Makes You Dumb!” They are looking for normal things but with an unusual angle.

You may write from facts to fictions but it needs to be extremely good.

Final Words

For those of you who are good at writing lists, this could be an extremely easy way to make decent money.

Write one list a day and you’ve got yourself $100.

That’s $700 a week, more than what some people take home as their weekly paycheck.

But, let’s be realistic and say for some reason you are only able to write 1-2 list every week.

Even if you write 5 lists every month, that’s still an extra $500 a month.

Not bad if you ask me!

If I recommend it, it's because it holds up to scrutiny.
