Nowadays, there are so many ways to make passive income. I have tried quite a few ways of making extra money here and there online, and I am forever researching new ways to generate more. Making money while sleeping is the dream, and the more passive the income, the sweeter it is. Also, if you have various streams of passive income, it allows you to have more time to invest in other streams of income that might require a lot more effort.

If you are wondering how to make more passive income online this year, you are reading the right blog. Here are a few ideas you could try.

• Blogging

Having a blog creates passive income from ads, affiliate programs, and sponsored posts (indirectly). As a blogger, you make money every time someone visits your blog, and old posts you have written years ago still make money for you. If you have a thing of writing and creating, then running a blog should be fun and easy for you. I started blogging in 2012 and I can see myself blogging forever. It is such a great way of generating passive income.

• Get involved in Cryptocurrency

I am sure you would have heard all about Cryptocurrencies and how they work. Many people I know in real life are heavily involved in making a passive income from crypto. You can invest your money, whatever the currency, at the level of risk that suits you and you get paid interest. This is great for those who have a bit of money in the bank and want to make their money work hard for them.

• Vlogging

If you prefer to be in front of a camera and you have something to teach or share, then Vlogging may be the right passive income generator for you. It takes quite a bit of work to get your YouTube Channel to the point where you make enough passive income but once you get to that sweet spot, the only way is up!

• Sell Digital Products

Another way of making passive income online is to sell digital products. These products could be Kindle books, templates, printables, online courses, templates, and so on. Once you put in the work and get the digital product ready, it usually sells itself. You can also sell as many digital products as you can create. You don’t have to worry about physical space to store your products and the costs for production are usually low.

• Real Estate Investing

This is one of the oldest ways of generating passive income and it still works great today. If you have enough money, you can invest in real estate and let the money work for you. It makes sense to get a property management company to deal with the running of the rental while you count your money. That way you have the time to chase other income streams.
