Make Easy Money Using Fiverr

If you are new to this make money online business and in need of a little startup cash, you can consider making some easy money using Fiverr. No, I'm not talking about posting your own gigs on Fiverr. But certainly, if you happen to have a few nice gigs, it wouldn't hurt to do that as well.

Here the basic money making idea is to resell Fiverr gigs. Gigs that are useful and popular, and most importantly, gigs that people do actually deliver. If you find a gig that is too good to be true like doing an unbelieveable amount of work, then probably it is just a scam. So you only search for gigs that are highly rated, e.g. a gig that is Top rated with 100% gig rating like this one http://fiverr.com/crorkservice/add-your-site-to-700-social-bookmarks or this one, another Top rated gig with 99% gig rating, http://fiverr.com/gentoo/submit-your-article-to-my-800-free-blogs. After you find a good number of gigs, resell the services on eBay or other Fiverr clones like Gigbucks, make it $10 or something, all up to you.

If you need more ideas on what Fiverr gigs you could use, you can take a look at my other post Top 20 Fiverr SEO Gigs.

How to Setup a Website on your Free VPS

First, get your free VPS from Host1Free. For some more info on how I setup my Wordpress blog using Centos 5 and Kloxo, click here. This post is about setting up a simple website using Centos 6 and XAMPP.

# wget http://www.apachefriends.org/download.php?xampp-linux-1.7.7.tar.gz
# tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.7.7.tar.gz -C /opt
# vi /opt/lampp/etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf

Remove the following:

<LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from ::1 127.0.0.0/8 \
fc00::/7 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12 192.168.0.0/16 \
81.196.40.94/32
ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</LocationMatch>

# service httpd stop

If you have a domain name for your website, 

# vi /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf

Add

NameVirtualHost [your_VPS_IP]:80
NameVirtualHost [your_VPS_IP]:443

<VirtualHost [your_VPS_IP]:80>
    DocumentRoot /opt/lampp/htdocs/yourdomain.com/
    ServerName yourdomain.com
    ServerAlias yourdomain.com
    ErrorLog logs/yourdomain .com-error_log
    CustomLog logs/yourdomain .com-access_log common
    ErrorDocument 404 /opt/lampp/htdocs/path/to/my/404.shtml
</VirtualHost>

# /opt/lampp/lampp start
# /opt/lampp/lampp security
