Most of the passive income sources relate to working online When starting with no money we hardly can think of a strong passive source that can hold our promise and make us successful, but that is where we think wrong. Online business doesn't depend upon our luck or wishes but on what we are ready to put forth to become successful. Anyone can start a passive business online as long as he has the ability to think for the future and give a real value to people and dedicated fully working with his passion. You see people saying, do this not that because this will not make you enough money, if all this was for making money then no one would have been successful in life whatsoever. When people, especially you, want to do something from your heart you not only fill needs of people but you have just made a path for yourself into the passive things, I know it sounds complicated but trust me as long as you are willing to work for needs of people you have a business to handle.
There is not a single thing that you cannot learn to start building you dreams.
For beginners I would suggest to start any of the given options to build an online source of income. But personally I would advice you to start something you truly want to do and start spreading through the given platforms. I will not give you steps to do rather I will provide options and where to start.
Don't just forget online is not real life, real life lies in the world where you have friends, family, and people around you.
1. Starting a Blog or Website:
This is an interest based alternative where you can start with, as an article or content writing like I am doing right now. People ask where to start really and can we start from free, well let me tell you this is also a free blog from blogger as you can see from the url.
Where can I start: If you want to start free you can choose blogger or wordpress and later on alter to own website/blog. You can search for anything on youtube or google about your questions or thing you don't understand or need to do step by step. Now the basic thing is what you're going to write about, if you're interested into doing something you can start on that whether it is about marketing, services, music composition or instruments, health and wellness, jokes and memes, video editing and film making, animal lover, nature and travel, gaming whatever you just have to open your laptop or phone and start writing about it.
If you're not clear about what I'm going to write just start researching about something that you know a little bit and about which people are searching to get their answers, this is called niche research. You need to find that subcategory or niche which has low competition yet good amount of search volume. In this way it will be easy for you to get attention of people.
Now you have to get people to see your content for that you need SEO meaning something by which people when searching for stuff similar to your content get to see your article in Google's search results. SEO mainly is a quite long process but you can hand the much you need like keyword optimization which I earlier stated to search for topics that have low competition yet high search volume. There are couple of tools where you can do keyword research like UBERSUGGEST by Neil Patel or H-SUPERTOOLS by H-Educate which are completely Free to use. By using these tools you will get to know what should be your article title. Starting an article/blog/website at first is hard core so to speak but as you keep writing you will write the perfect and helpful blog for people you would have ever thought to be written and guess what you already have placed yourself in a people search list. From now one no matter what you write people will be waiting for your article to come.
Money will be coming through the ads that you put on the website/blog or products/services you promote in your article, you can connect people to your social media so on and so forth the way becomes more clear and effective.
2. Starting a Youtube Channel:
With the same concept that if you're able to create content yourself that you're passionate about youtube will be great platform to show off your skills. If not learn how to use youtube completely, what can I give people that are interested in a particular niche you are researching, what are people watching the most, how do I make trending videos etc. As I said, I will not be giving the tips, tricks and steps on how to start but just an idea you can follow to get started.
Similar to a blog/website Youtube is a long term means for an passionate individual to grow and earn. It will take time to grow but you will learn things that will certainly be valuable to you. Youtube is completely free to start so just go ahead and start one.
3. Print on Demand (POD) :
Well you would be wondering what the hell is this but not to worry because you can also start this also without any difficult. This thing is not known to many people so let me tell you what it is. Basically what you do is you create designs that are good and trending (mostly) and you upload them to sites like Merch by Amazon, Teespring, Redbubble where these designs are shown to people on different clothing or home accessories and if they like it and buy it the same design will be printed on the selected goods and send to the costumer while you get your profit.You can join these sites for free and start uploading for free. The good thing about POD is all you have to care about is making good designs and uploading them to these sites (free) ,the rest is taken care by these sites like showing your designs to people, printing the design on a product(shirts,hoodies,mugs,masks,tanktops etc) and shiping it to the costumer.
While uploading designs, you can select specific products you want your design to be printed and your profit margin that these sites will be paying you if the designed product is sold. Designs does mean you have create intricate things or have to be graphic designer but most people on POD create simple text designs that sell the most.
POD is also long term passive source because your designs remain on these sites for a long time. You have to search for trending or niches that have low competition and start creating your designs.
If you are thinking that where can I start designing you can start with free sites like Canva.com or Crello.com where you can designs from their pre-made free templates.
