How to Bid on a Translation Job
Find translation projects by searching for project listings on an online freelancing site, such as Guru, Get a Freelancer or Elance. Sign up for an account on these sites to bid on projects.
Establish an online portfolio of past work. You can post examples on your website or blog. Some freelancing websites also allow you to post samples directly on your provider profile.
Research acceptable rates by visiting the profiles of other translators on freelancing websites and browsing their completed projects.
Select a bid amount based on the rates charged by other freelance translators on similar projects.
Compose your bid. Describe your past experience translating audio or text and provide testimonials from past clients to establish credibility. Note any high-profile projects you have completed, such as the translation of published books or easily recognizable websites.
Provide a detailed description of the terms of your bid. State how long it will take for you to complete the project, and whether you will deliver the entire translation at the end of the project or according to milestones. Tell the client when you expect payment so he can budget in advance.
Answer any questions posed by the client promptly. Providing rapid responses shows the client that you are easy to work with and care about her needs, which can increase her interest in hiring you to complete the translation project.

How to Make $50
Sign up for several of the reputable paid survey sites. For example, I currently use Opinion Outpost, Survey Savvy, LIghtspeed Panel, Esearch.com and Global Test Market to make money at home. These are just a couple of examples. There are several reputable sites that you can sign up for to earn money by taking online surveys. Keep in mind that the reputable sites will not charge you any fee to join.
Fill out the demographic profiles for each of the sites that you sign up for. This may take you some time, but you will be invited to take a larger number of surveys for money from your sites. Make sure to add the survey site e-mail addresses to your e-mail address book, so that your survey invitations do not end up in your spam folder.
Wait for your survey invites to come in via your e-mail address. You can also log in to many of the sites to check for available paid surveys yourself. If you want to capitalize on this easy way to make money, you'll need to take the better paying surveys as soon as they come out, as these fill up quickly. Don't expect to qualify for all of the paid surveys; you will only qualify for a portion of them. Each of the surveys is likely looking for a different type of respondent or group of respondents.
Earn money as you qualify for and complete online surveys. Some survey companies give you your incentive right after taking the paid surveys, while with others you'll have to wait several weeks. As long as you stick to the reputable survey companies, you will get paid when you qualify and complete a survey. Check into each sites payment policies and procedures. Enjoy this way to make easy money. Consider putting a portion of your monthly earnings into your savings account or emergency fund.
