So first let’s understand the 3 main types of making money from home, then I give you a little hint on how to start, and finally I’ll share with you the list of 100 options.

3 Levels Of Making Money From Home

There are 3 very different levels when it comes to making money from home. It is of upmost importance to know at which level you are and also to decide which way you want to go. Because one reason you might fail making money from home can actually be that you try to step on the wrong path. But more on this later.

Building passive income. A.k.a. level 3 of making money from home. I admit this is what sounds the best, but it is by far the most difficult to achieve and I actually discourage anyone from starting at this level.
Running a small business from home. This one, level 2 of making making money from home, can actually be much easier than most people would think. You don’t really have to think about running a large enterprise. Starting your own blog, along with several other possibilities, that then generates a constant flow of money could be a good example for this option and it can indeed generate you money while still only working from home.
Sell your time working from home. Selling your time doesn’t sound that great, but actually in my opinion this is by far the easiest and most recommended method for literally anyone to start making money from home. This is level 1, and if you’ve never actually made any money from home, you should definitely start with this step, even if your long-term goals are level 2 or level 3.

Let’s see why!

Why Are You Struggling Making Money From Home

The reasons are simple. There are in fact only 2 main reasons you might find it difficult to make money on the side.

You put too much focus on passive income or building a small business, level 2 and 3, without any prior experience.
You don’t really possess a skill which you can do from home and what’s valuable enough for others so that they would pay you in exchange of your efforts.

Don’t get me wrong, building passive income or running a small business from home are definitely a great way to make a lot of money. But they are just not the way you should start. These methods take a lot of time to build up a substantial income, and in some cases they would even require some initial monetary investment. So while great as a long term plan, chasing passive income or an online business can actually ruin your expectations at the beginning.

As far as the second point goes (possessing a valuable skill), our society has changed a lot in the last few decades. And what’s even more difficult to understand, it is constantly changing. So the skills that could have been useful even a couple of years ago can be just as simply outdated today.

The Solution

The solution is simple. Learn a couple of skills that are valuable enough right now, in the 21^st century, so that people would be happy to pay you in exchange of your services. Start making money by selling your work practicing these skills.

This way you can start making money from home even in the first month. You get a lot of experience, build business connections, and continue making an income flow. And once you’re experienced enough, you can safely progress into level 2 or 3, that is building an online business or passive income.

I’ll share with you a couple of these skills at the end of this article so make sure to scroll down. But first let’s see our list of 100 ways of making money from home.
