Top 5 ways to make $100 online in a single day ( Part 2)

Now, it's time to look at some of the ways you can use the internet to generate passive or active income. If you're interested in making money online and in your spare time, check out these 5 ways to make $100 or more per day:

#1: Digital Products

There are all kinds of digital products out there, but there is always room for more. I even have a few of my own!

If you sign up for my free "Make 1K Challenge" where I show you how to start a blog and make your first $1,000, I'm offering a $7 upgrade that includes some PDFs and a behind-the-scenes video contains. While $7 doesn't sound like a lot of money, I can still make an extra $1,500-$2,000 a month passively from this one product!

Another example of digital products is the wide world of printables. Many online entrepreneurs create digital products that their customers can print at home, and they often make money from it. Many bloggers have their own printable budget templates, meal plans, or checklists, but you can also find examples on Etsy.com.

#2: Selling Leads

After working with Good Financial Cents for a few years, I started a second website called Life Insurance by Jeff. We originally started this website to build our own leads, but eventually, we had so many leads that we couldn't handle them ourselves.

Eventually, I found out that a handful of insurance companies were willing to pay for leads generated through my website. These companies were paying anywhere from $35 to $100 per contact, which is insane. That opened my eyes because I had no idea something like this was possible.

It should also be noted that not only life insurance companies are willing to pay for leads. There are many different avenues and strategies for lead generation, so consider all possibilities.

#3: Freelance Writing

Freelance writing is another way to earn an online income if you don't mind earning some of your money from active work. Another benefit of freelance writing is that writing for bigger websites gets you more exposure.

One of the first websites I wrote for paid me $150 per article. It wasn't a lot of money, but I took the opportunity to improve my writing skills and get my name out there. I don't write as much for others now, but I know many freelance writers who make $250, $500 and even $1,000 or more per article.

Some freelance writers I know even make six figures or more writing from home every year. This includes blogger Holly Johnson, who makes over $200,000 a year writing articles for other websites. Johnson also offers a course you can take if you want to become a freelance writer but need help getting started.

#4: Coaching

If you have expertise in a specific field, you can also use the internet to start a coaching business. This is something that happened to me by accident. As I was building my blog and brand, a ton of people came to me to learn how I did it and how they could apply the same ideas to their own business. While I initially gave advice for free because I enjoyed it, I eventually started charging a consultation fee.

How much you make depends on the type of niche you end up in. According to recent statistics, executive coaches make about $325 an hour, while business coaches make closer to $235 an hour. Life coaches, on the other hand, can charge around $160 an hour.

If you're an expert in your field and people keep asking you for advice, you should start asking for money. Your time is valuable, and so is your advice!

#5: Attract new customers to your business

When I started my blog, I saw my website as a marketing tool to attract new clients to my financial planning. This strategy paid off because my online presence has helped me build authority and reach people I might not have reached otherwise.

If you have a service-based business, I would highly recommend starting a blog or building an online presence that you can use to attract new customers. This way you can build your customer base like I did and it's a lot more fun than cold calling or boring seminars.
