Personally, until recently I was not aware of this possibility, although it has not surprised me at all since on the Internet you can generate income practically by doing anything. However, what stands out the most about this form of monetization is its ease and the convenience of being able to do it from anywhere.

What is the procedure to earn money chatting?

The procedure to get money in chat rooms is as simple as finding the right platform, entering it and establishing conversations with other people, without more. And no, I’m not talking about racy or sexual conversations (which there are, too), but normal, ordinary talk.

Although it may seem a bit surprising at times, there are thousands of people around the world who prefer to dialogue with other individuals in a chat room than in real life. Without going any further, a very common scene nowadays is seeing a group of friends together in a park … talking to each other on WhatsApp! 😮

There are also other slightly more “justified” reasons, such as the fact that there are many people completely alone for whom, this type of conversation, is a brutal escape route, sometimes managing to fill certain very difficult emotional or sentimental voids to overcome in the raw loneliness.

Likewise, there is also a middle ground between racy dialogues and conventional talks, such as conversations where certain emotional ties can be established, such as friendship and even virtual courtship. Everything will depend on your tastes and your mentality, although the limit will always depend on you.

Finally, there is also the opportunity to earn money chatting with men and women through the employment of chat operator, receptionist or after-sales service manager, services that more and more companies have when, for example, they sell their products. through WhatsApp.

Best sites to make money chatting with strangers

There are many platforms to earn money talking to other people through different chat systems (especially in the Anglo-Saxon market), although in the following lines I am only going to show you some of the most popular today. They are as follows:

1.- Chat Recruit

Chat Recruit is a company created in 2008 and based in the UK. Its main function is to offer models and women from all over the world the opportunity to start their own business from home. Of course, all for free and without any commitment.

3.- FlirtBucks

Do you have an attractive personality and do you like to talk to new and interesting people? Do you like spending time on social media and/or indifferent online communities? Do you want to earn extra income through easy and fun work from the comfort of your home?

Depending on the type of chat (via text or with a webcam), the earnings will be variable, usually ranging between $ 0.10 and $ 0.50 per minute of conversation. Like the rest of the platforms of the same style, there is no minimum work time, so you are free to work as long as you want 😉

4.- JustAnswer

This platform is very different from all the previous ones since it is not focused on the leisure and/or entertainment area, but rather on a totally professional sector. It is a website where specialists from multiple professions can help with their knowledge to anyone who needs it through chat.

Veterinarians, mechanics, doctors, lawyers, computer scientists and all kinds of specialists have the opportunity to earn extra money helping to solve the doubts of thousands of people around the world. Currently, this company located in San Francisco (USA), has more than 11,900 experts.

5.- FriendPC

FriendPC is a platform that aims to help people from all over the world find friends to exchange text messages, make phone calls, play video games, make video calls, etc. In addition, it allows the possibility of earning money by publishing friendly booking services.

For example, imagine that you are very good at playing video games and you usually spend many hours a day sitting in front of your computer. In that case, you could create a profile on FriendPC as “Virtual Gamer” and offer your friendship service so that other people can play a certain game with you, teach them your best tricks and strategies, and so on.

To do this, all you have to do is put a price on your services and wait for someone to send a reservation request to enjoy your company. Curious… right? The remunerations offered by the platform range from $ 10 to $ 50 per hour, so imagine what you can earn here 😮

Recommendations to be a good chat operator

The requirements to work on any of the above platforms are practically non-existent, so anyone of legal age (without any special knowledge or previous experience) can register and start making money chatting online without any problem.

However, as in any other business, job or job that you develop online, the key is to maximize the time invested and get the best performance from each of your actions, which in each case will require certain guidelines and requirements. In the case of chat operators, they are as follows:

 1   If you are not an outgoing person and with a good ability to engage in pleasant conversations with other people in writing, you better not waste time in this sector and look for other business opportunities more in line with your skills.

 2   Just because being a chat operator is an easy job doesn’t mean you have to do it anyway. For example, you must avoid spelling mistakes at all costs, something that is fatal in any professional context.

 3   Focus on the conversations and don’t get distracted. If you are talking to a person, follow the thread of the conversation so as not to make the mistake of writing incongruous things. People do not pay to chat with robots, but with people who can really listen.

 4   As informal as a conversation can get (it does happen sometimes), don’t lose your temper and politeness. Writing bad words never adds, it always subtracts.

 5   Although chatting is an activity that you can do with any type of PC or mobile phone (the benefits do not matter), you should at least make sure you have a decent Internet connection. If you suffer continuous interruptions in the connection, it is most likely that you will end up losing many clients.

Opinions on making money chatting

In addition, as with practically all the different methods to earn money online , you can do it from the comfort of your home and without any obligation in terms of time and schedule. You decide when and how much you want to work, something impossible to carry out in a conventional job.

However, you should bear in mind that although the job of a chat operator seems very easy to do, without a series of skills (being an outgoing person, knowing how to listen, ease of talking about multiple topics, etc.) it will be very difficult for you to convert this job in a really relevant source of income.

On the other hand, you may have noticed that some of the platforms mentioned above, apart from the obligation of being older, in some cases they usually require the services of people of the female gender, so men have fewer opportunities in this sector.

In any case, there is no doubt that making money chatting is one more option within the immense range of possibilities offered by the Internet. From there, each one must decide what is best for them to increase their income and even to achieve financial independence
