There are a lot of ways to make money.
The most important quality you need is the passion for learning to earn.
Online side hustles are a common approach to make money.
Startup costs are minimal, and there are many places where you can get free WiFi.
In this article, I have listed a few side hustles and some ways you can get a part-time online job to earn some extra bucks.
1. Tried Amazon.com?
Several people are using Amazon FBA to make some easy cash.
The trick is to find profitable products (I use aliexpress to find profitable products), learn about Amazon SEO so that you can get more organic sales on Amazon
Apart from this, you can also create an authority website on any topic like guitar, dogs, etc. And then recommend amazon products through your website as an affiliate.
Here are my latest stats for one of my websites:

4. Start a blog
This one is my favorite just because I make a big portion of my monthly income through my blog.
I have blogs in various niches which make me passive income
Here is an income proof from just one of them:
Income Proofs :
Yes, I invest a lot of my time in building my blogs.
But I have kept it at number four position because its time consuming and gives you’re a return after a long time.
Here are my tips if you are thinking about starting a blog.
- Focus on one website at a time
- Choose a niche that has medium to low competition so that you can rank high on Google search.
- Focus on quality over So even if you write just one article in a month, make sure it is your best.
- Focus on SEO. Search engine optimization is the key to building a successful blog.
Here is the analytics for one of my affiliate sites:
This website alone makes me close to $3-4K a month. Why? Because 3 of my articles are ranking #1 for almost all the keywords related to that article.
5. Sell Video Courses
Now, this one is my favorite.
The best part about selling digital good is that the investment cost is one time
Let’s say you create a video course on how to play the guitar in 30 days, it’ll take you 20 days to create aa audio course, but it’ll continue to sell online forever.
Udemy will host the courses, and you will be making money from each sale. Now, even if you sell 10,000 courses, your investment is just one time.
Digital products have helped me scale my business
My tips:
- Make sure the quality of your course is much more than what is available for free on youtube.
- You should have complete knowledge and control over your funnel. From finding customers to selling them more courses at a later time.
- Money is in the upselling. So make sure you use it correctly.
