Different Ways to Make Money Online At Home
There are many different ways to make money online at home. I’m not glossing it over, it’s not easy, it will take work, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. If you can make $1 extra why not thousands?
Start a Blog
One of the most important steps would be to start your own blog first, just like this one you are reading. You can do it through wordpress or through wix – or any other system, whatever works for you. My websites are through Wealthy Affiliate and are wordpress blogs. I get to build them out how I want them and yet it was done with lessons included in my membership fee. Yes there is a membership fee, however, you can build a blog on a free account and still have 10 lessons. (I was on a free account for 2 years before I upgraded). You can do a large part of the learning without it ever costing you a dollar. The next level up is $19 per month is and is a premium account. The premium plus membership is $49 per month. That opens the door for advanced training. Honestly you could operate out of a $19 account for many years and make money.
What Can I Blog About?
I can hear you already saying – What on earth am I going to blog about? My response is –
- what is your passion?
- What do you know a lot about?
- What makes you feel excited?
- What do people say you are good about?
- Ask your family and friends what they consider you are good at?
- What would you do with your life if you did not have to work?
- What would you do for free every day if you didn’t have to earn money?
Still Stuck?
Make a list. Set up a list on your mobile device. For one week be aware of what you think about doing with your life, what you have loved doing that day. Every night before you go to bed, take a look at the list and think about what you loved doing from that day. Your clue may be right there! You can do it!
How can you make money from that blog?
Share Affiliate Links – You can share affiliate links – which give you a percentage of the earnings that you make from that post. What kind of affiliate links? I am an Amazon Affiliate, Etsy affiliate, Wayfair and Ultimate Bundles affiliate. I am obviously a Wealthy Affiliate member which is where I learnt everything I know about how to make money online at home. I have a few niche sites too – but I find that spreading myself too thin is a mistake. I have also worked in Medium – you have to have 100 followers before you start earning money. One of my friends earns a 6 figure income from Medium posts. I believe I will get there too.

Print on Demand T Shirts etc
How to make money online at home using a Print on Demand service. If you are the arty type, you can design your own T shirts pictures, memes, words or slogans and sign up with a print on demand company. I use Gearbubble and Redbubble. I don’t have arty skills but I can string a few words together to make people laugh or feel good and I can put that on a T-shirt, a mug, stickers, wall art or a phone case. There are amazing opportunities which are dropshipped directly to the buyer and I never need to do anything other than design, market and collect my money. Idyllic really!

Take Photos and Sell Them
There are many different sites that you will be able to take photos and sell them online. If you carry a phone with an excellent camera – literally take photos and sell them online. A simple google search with find your photos have value – maybe not a lot in the beginning, but imagine your work being targetted at a particular niche eg Real Estate – you could take photos of anything related to a home and garden or decor and the real estate niche is a cinch. You can progress from there into buying a great camera and you can do some amazing photos and command higher prices.
Summary
When you look at just the few realistic items in my list – how many of them could you do? Could you do one from each item each day or just one item niche? You would be surprised at how much you can do and how all the little bits add up. I’ve had a check for $49 one day and one for $5.23 the next – but every day I see it growing and growing and one day I will be able to do this full time. I am not unique. You could be doing this too.

I hope that my success will grow over time. I recommend everyone to try and for all beginners I recommend the Wealthy Affiliate platform. Good luck to everyone.
I agree with you Bojana – its definitely the way going forward. I actually really look forward to writing every day and honestly – its so wonderful to be excited to get up every day!
Hi Kathie,
I appreciate you providing this online money-making using your creativity. I love Canva, I have started posting on Medium and got some views but need to improve. It is a creative platform any really can help you make good money.
I have numerous photos and like to sell them because I see inferior photos are being sold at high prices if I need to buy them. I still have to search the internet on how to sell them.
How much do I spend to make T-shirt prints, mugs, etc? A trial is worth it. I have relatives to help me.
I write blogs and get better at them, then think of freelancing.
I will keep learning from you in the future.
And Anusuya, hi, thanks for your comment! The nice thing about Gearbubble and Redbubble is that it’s free to put together and sell, you set the price (cost + markup) and you get the profit (markup). I design my T shirts in Canva and upload into gearbubble or redbubble and share to social media. If you need some help, touch base with me and I can help you!
Great post Kathie, and some really great tips to boost income and earnings.
You’re right in that there’s so much opportunity out there, for someone to work from home. Some of these methods might need some guidance and mentors to help a person grasp the main concepts and workflow.
If you are offer mentorship/guidance, then I think you should actively put yourself out there, [especially for women, as I see your post is inclined that way!] 😉
Thank you Omer! Yes! Good point and of course I’m always available to beginners to mentor through the beginning stage! Have a wonderful day!
