Blogging about making money online entails receiving emails about how to.. you guessed it right – how to make money online. And just this week, I’ve received one from a blogging friend asking about ways to work at home and earn with the help of a computer.

My usual reply commonly includes questions probing what activity interests the person the most and knows best. But since I know that she has a flair for writing, I suggested that she tries becoming an SEO-skilled web content writer. I would also usually hint the person to blog.

So that’s the story behind this post. That and Shai’s Christmas wish list and the Yuletide season, of course.

Although this might be somewhat late, what gifts would I recommend that you give this Holiday season to those who would like to venture into income-generating activities through the Internet?

Domain Name and Hosting

For just one dollar, you can pay for a one-year registration of a domain name. For as low as $4/month you can pay for the web hosting. This of course depends on how the person wants to make money through the Internet but it’s usually advisable to have a blog/website.

Quality Make Money Online Books/E-Books
I, myself, would be delighted to receive Aaron Wall’s SEOBook, Tim Ferriss’ 4-Hour Work Week and Rich Jerk’s ebook. I’ve read lots of great reviews of these books.

E-courses or Coaching Programs Membership

It’s got to be Yaro Starak’s Blog Mastermind for newbies in turning blogs into money-making machines or Brian Clark’s Teaching Sells for those who are into more advanced methods. If you want to gift someone who wants to be a virtual assistant, VANetworking is one that offers VA coaching programs.

Gadgets and Accessories for More Internet Income

If you can afford it, a MacBook Pro or Asus EEE PC for a problogger wannabe or a lovely digital SLR camera for someone who wants to earn from taking pictures won’t hurt! Or if you know one who’s planning to earn from making online videos but has a rusty camcorder, receiving black Ultra Flip Video Ultra Camcorder I imagine would make him/her flip in joy! (I will! Hehe.) Someone who wants to earn through the Internet, most probably, is a technophile and would definitely appreciate receiving gadgets.

Gadget accessories are definitely going to be nice gifts too if you can’t afford to give hefty-priced stuff. How about a keyboard cover, a padded mouse pad or a custom laptop skin? These are items that won’t directly help people to make money but might motivate them in some way.

Can you suggest other stuff that someone who wishes to make money online would appreciate getting this year?
