This might sound interesting, for people who aren’t aware of the extra source of income digitally. In this era of technology many people are still struggling to have a degree and a good job that can pay off the bills. People are just struggling to get the life they want to. We should understand that older generation worked in an era where it was far more less competition. So working in the traditional manner should not be our go to, in today’s competitive and fast world.

Back in olden days, a single business could meet the necessity and requirements of all members in a family, but as the time changes the needs has also started changing. Earlier, people had the psychology to earn more and spend only on certain valuables, but as the time has changed the spending rates have increased and the current generation wants the best and therefore they work their asses off to get a high paying jobs which could give them the financial independence or freedom. This is not a negative trait, if you are capable and have a prospect and guts to look life in a different manner, do not want to become a burden and dependent on others. 

Due to this kind of mindset everyone is looking out for options that could be utilised in order to have that EXTRA money in their pockets. No one, in this world will say NO to those quick source of income that could help and generate a source to reach your goals faster.

Let us look upon some of the ways that could lead us to get some fast money which we could earn without knocking our heads off. Here are some of the hobbies that could give us a sense of extra bucks:

 

Blogging and content writing:

Most of us would have created a habit of keeping a personal diary to write our thoughts and our feelings or might have written about the thoughts that we gather from news and discovery channel etcetera. Some of us might have used it to describe feelings that we do not feel comfortable telling others and want to write down somewhere in order to let it out that can have a calming effect with all the confusion around us.

This could build a passion for writing, which can be used and can be presented to the world, thus leading to monetary benefits as well. Lots of small and big organisations are looking for content writers who can write articles and tag-lines about their products which further could be utilised by the marketing team to brand the products. Be it Amul which has a tagline saying "Amul the taste of India", Apple's slogan "Think different" or children’s favourite "I'm loving it" of McDonald's. Whatever we see on the sites are mostly written by some of the content writers that companies employ to market the product and sell to end users.

Crafts and DIYs(Do it yourself)

In school, many of us were happy just seeing craft on time-table and try to create the best possible version of what was shown by teachers. There might be students who are not good at academics could be excellent at amazing craftsy stuff. This creative sense could help in earning good money while working from home. Many people build quality stuff from clay, cardboards, cements and even gift wraps which are discarded as trash and is occupying space. Once the same stuff is mixed with creativity, it becomes art!

There are various options to experiment with things and let your creativity fly high and make art which could be sold locally or online. 

Here are few sites that could be utilised to sell handmade products online:

 

Etsy

It's a platform where most creative heads can sell their unique products. It's considered to be a home for distinctive items and fully handcrafted pieces. This marketplace was build for the artist who want to sell their handcrafted products to potential customers.

Handmade Amazon

Amazon created this special category in their catalogue, all because of market demand. Due to availability for a solid demand(huge customer base of Amazon), local artists and makers are inspired create more elaborate pieces thus, feeding into the positive feedback loop of improved quality/quantity and demand. 

iCraft

Bangladesh being a hub of handmade artistic products like jewellery, clothes, home-decor, iCraft is one of a kind organisation that give privilege to the local men to showcase their talent in a very unique way. For further reference do check iCraft. 

Zibbet

This organisation has given opportunities to those craftsman who could not usually dream to create a business in handmade products. More than 130 countries consisting of 50k entrepreneurs are selling their products online. Zibbet could be a grate option for various artists.

There are various other sites that can be used to showcase one's creativity. New bands can easily built using such huge platform by creative minds, but lack the exposure.

Web Designing 

Web designing is a fast growing and a huge career option for youngsters who want to take "the road not taken". Not taking the usual career path of an Engineering or a Doctor. Students who have some passion in arts and better design instincts that can be used to fill a blank sheet with brilliant ideas and effects.

Different areas of web designing may include graphic designing, user experience designing, interface designing etc. These skills are used to build website, Google ads, Facebook ads or any kind of sales funnel that will be more interactive and would force users to click on links with their artistic skills.

Proof-reading 

This is for those who are very good with different languages and have great command on grammar and could edit the pages of written material. To be a proofreader a person has to check errors like minor spell checks, typos, formatting and punctuations in text before it gets published. These skills are very essential for online and conventional editors.

Speaking of which, don't get confused between proofreading and editing as both are poles apart. Editing involve major changes on the text as in the structure, language or might be content if not appealing for audience where as proofreading include minor changes.

Though, there is always an overlap between the two in the modern online world.
