I didn’t think it was possible to make money online, and I was always fascinated when someone was trying to sell SEO expertise because I just hadn’t seen anyone make any money.

However, that changed this year, not for me, but for my sis. She got a position as an online affiliate for Linda Christas College, an online college/academy. It’s an especially good opportunity because for each enrolled student, the affiliate (They don’t call them affiliates. My sis is a recruiter) receives approximately a $500 stipend. For each student who returns the following year for a full curriculum, the recruiter receives $1,000. It’s a great program, and is replacing a lot of the advertising and recruiting budgets of traditional colleges. And, as online degrees become more accepted than traditional beer and football degrees (that’s happening already with employers, since online degree holders are maturer and proven self starters), online colleges can only increase in terms of enrollments, and therefore the college recruiting end of things will improve also. It’s one of those things whereby today online recruiters are hard to find. In five years, people will be begging for the positions, and those who have already proven themselves to be reliable (like my sister), will have secured the jobs.

My sister made just over $61,000 this year working totally online as a recruiter for Linda Christas, so if I were anyone needing or wanting an online job, I would check into that. As it is, I am married to a computer genius, so I spend my day doing other things. The trick is to find a guy like this that you can actually love. Good luck with that. I found a rare fellow who knows computers, but also knows how to share a bottle of wine at dusk in a mountain cabin.

All she did to get the job with Linda Christas was contact them. They provided the training free of charge.
