Spectacularly Easy Yet Unethical Way to Generate Some Income

One of the easiest ways to make money online while making a complete mockery of aspiring yet gullible people in that particular niche: start a contest in that particular niche or category. Once you have the contest website and content acceptance form or page ready, do not forget to take the following steps:

1. Charge a fee for evaluating the content submitted by the participants. Make the evaluation fee for a single submission around 25 to 50 dollars depending on the length of the submission.
2. To lower the demands on evaluators and your computing infrastructure, do not let the submitting parties submit lengthy works. Place strict restrictions on the lengths of the works to lower all types of costs associated with managing the utterly dubious process.
3. To create an impression that as an entity that truly cares and wants to promote people in the niche, mention in bold that for additional submissions, you, as a caring, charitable entity would give the participants a 35% discount on each subsequent submission. If the evaluation fee for the first submission is around 30 US dollars, then charge around 20 US dollars for all subsequent entries included in the first complete submission.
4. To make it extremely easy for yourself as a person or group of people, put the entire burden of the selection process on the participants and readers, as well. Ask the readers and registered voters to vote on the submissions, and to create a semblance of legitimacy, place a complete ban on voting on your personal submissions.
5. Hire a freelance developer on UpWork or Freelancer to write a sorting algorithm for already-rated submissions, and you should be able to get a list of perfectly sorted entries at the end of the process.
6. With all of the aforementioned steps taken, Do Not, Under Any Circumstances forget to include in your Terms of Service and Conditions of the Contest that the decision announced on the website would be final and incontestable. The participants would have no legal recourse available to challenge the legitimacy of the published results.
7. To make the whole of the process at least acceptably profitable, explicitly declare in your terms that the process would stand null and void, meaning no winners would be announced, unless a certain minimum number of submissions are received. For example, if your goal is to reach at least 10,000 US dollars and then announce winners, then explicitly declare in your terms that if the contest fails to receive at least 350 entries at 30 US dollars per entry, then no winners would be announced. Explicitly declare in your terms that in the case of the cancellation of the contest owing to an unsatisfactory number of entries, the fees submitted for the successful submissions would be nonrefundable, and the decision to cancel the contest would be final and the participants would have to agree to not take the contest organizers to the court. Their decision to cancel the event or the whole of the process without refunding the fees would be final, indisputable, and incontestable.

There you have it, people, one of the easiest ways to make money using the mighty Internet, otherwise called online income, and the power of voting. Long live the voting process. If you find a good enough marketer, then you can make at least 10,000 USD without losing a single penny by merely canceling the event. Just make sure to include the “final adjudication indisputable and incontestable” in your various clauses.
