Many times I'm asked if you can actually make money online with no investment and that's one of the things I love about Wealthy Affiliate. YES, it is possible.

As you know, with WA, you get 2 fully featured websites without having to upgrade or buy some upsell. Even on WordPress.com you have to pay to get all the features you get here! Other WordPress hosting outfits do the same.

Regardless, many folks don't have the funds to purchase image editing software, graphics packages, royalty free photos, etc. So, I have been keeping a brief list of free tools available online that even I use when I'm away from my computer or don't feel like loading up my Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop.

Now, some of these you can do in WordPress with a Plug-in, but I do try to keep my plug-in list as short as possible, because as I mentioned in a previous post, plug-ins take time to execute and can slow down your page load speeds which affect your SEO.

See this previous post: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/pjgermain/blog/how...

Also, these will not require a signup or have a captcha code to key in every time. I know those are annoying! :-)

If you have others you like.... Please post a comment and I'll review them and edit this post for all WA members to enjoy and use.

Thanks a bunch!
