You can also sell them to nearby local stores to grab some handsome money.

We all have some skills and talents hidden within us. If you are good at art and crafts, make something creative and useful out of recycled material and sell it online. Create a social media page to create an avenue to sell them.

4.      Blogging

If you are an avid writer and have a lot of things to express, just start a blog and start earning. There are two options to start your blog. For a zero-investment option, you can opt web-hosted blogs such as WordPress, Tumbler, etc.

If you want to have a self-hosted blog, for that you need to buy a domain name and space form a web hosting agency. The cost would generally come around 3000-5000 annually. You can easily monetise your blogs through ads, product reviews, Google Ad sense, Guest blogging, etc.

6.      Translation Jobs

Having a good grasp of languages other than English? If yes then this ability of yours will help you fetch some handsome bucks online. There are many websites that require document translation from one language to another.

To help you understand in a better way, I’ll share an example. You must have seen your kid’s favourite cartoons are available in various languages. Who does this? A translator is given the responsibility to translate the script in multiple languages. I hope you got that!

The languages may include inter-converting various Indian languages, international languages into English and vice versa. As this is a time-consuming process most of the companies and websites prefer outsourcing this to freelancers. So, try your luck in translation. Start by exploring gigs on freelancing websites initially.
