This is a question I get asked a lot by potential clients, and I personally feel where they’re coming from. I have two daughters myself, and love being able to drop everything and spend time with them while they’re young.
I will get straight to the point with this question, in my opinion, the best way to make money online, is through having a blog. My first blog started making money, after six months from when I started to solve a problem. I was able to sell my own digital product for $20. Since then I have added more value, I have increased my prices, and now my blog brings in over $2,000 a month in profit. If I was single and had no children, I would be traveling the world right now, lol. But I love my family and wouldn’t be where I am today without them.
I also love teaching, so I am in no rush to leave my career.
But the most affordable and organic ways to make money online is through a blog, and it’s not that hard to get started.
You could start a blog for free and in less than 20-30 minutes. Step 1: Go to WordPress.com and create a free account. Just use the free domain name for now. Step 2: Decide on who you really want to help with your blog. Is it moms with diabteic children? Is it middle aged men with diabetes and heart disease? Is it teachers with stress? Decide your niche, and who you want to help. Step 3: Start writing helpful posts to help those you’ve decided to help. Write at least 100 posts. Step 4: If you’re still really excited about your blog, buy a specific domain name that encapsulate who your audience is. Like for the moms of diabetic children; “mothersofdiabeticchildren.com”. You want to make sure your domain matches your niche. This will only cost you $18. Step 5: Build communication with your audience. Create a Google Form for you audience to stay in touch with you, and so they can leave their email address for more help. Then start emailing with your audience, and find their deep pain points you can solve for them. From there is should be no problem helping your audience and them in turn being able to help you.
