Join CPA networks. CPA stands for "Cost Per Action" and serious money is made online promoting CPA offers. When you visit a site and an ad pops up promoting a giveaway or free trial, it's usually a CPA offer. The affiliate marketing this offer by putting it on their site can make anywhere from pennies to dollars every time someone responds to their ad. CPA networks are a type of affiliate network; however, you don't have to sell products to earn commissions, so the results can be better. You can research CPA offers and networks on CPA directories like OfferVault.com.

Join freelance sites. Everyone has marketable skills and the Internet is a great place to get paid for them. There are skilled labor markets like Guru.com and Elance.com that cater to business owners who need things done and are willing to pay for the right talent and "gig" sites like Fiverr.com and Fourerr.com where you can sell almost any product or service for a few bucks. There are also specialized sites, like DemandStudios.com, where you can make money with skills like writing, blogging and video production. Most of these sites need to approve the product or service you plan to offer and others test applicants before hiring them. This is a good way to work without commuting to the office.

Get a mentor. This will cost you money, but if you find the right one it will be money well spent. A good mentor is actively doing what you want to do and earning serious cash in the process. You can look over their shoulder and learn firsthand what it takes to succeed. Instead of going by trial and error, you'll avoid costly mistakes by following the lead of someone who's been there. Your mentor will also keep you motivated and on track so you can make steady progress towards your goals. The best place to find one is WarriorForum.com or WickedFire.com since seasoned marketers are there and you can read their posts to learn what they're all about.
