If you want to make money online in your spare time, check out these 21 ways to generate $100 or more every day:

1: Google AdSense

When I originally started my blog, I had a lot of constraints as a financial advisor. As a result, one of the few ways I could generate money at the time was through Google Adsense. Sign up for this revenue-generating strategy, and Google will send you a code to copy and paste onto your website. Google handles the rest, and you get reimbursed anytime someone clicks on your adverts and/or makes a purchase.

Three months after I finally installed Google Adsense on my website, I was able to earn my first $100 award. This is amazing, however many people have asked me how I was able to generate so much money using Adsense in the beginning.

Keep in mind that, as a financial consultant, the majority of my website's advertising is for high-yielding financial products. If your site is in a different category, such as gastronomy or fashion, it may take longer for your adverts to pay off with your first $100 check.

2: Text Links

Initially, the second way I made $100 was by using text links. If you're not sure what text links are, check through any article on the internet for highlighted words that you may click to get to another page.

There are many companies willing to pay $100, $200, or even $1,000 or more for you to link from your website to theirs, something I didn't realize for a long time. However, I was overjoyed when a handful of companies offered to pay me $100 or more just for posting a link in one of my blog posts.

Unfortunately, I realized that selling text links is prohibited under Google's terms of service. If you do this on a frequent basis, it will have long-term ramifications for your website.

As a result, selling text links isn't a long-term business source. You may do it once in a while without consequence, but if you get greedy and overdo it, you will live to regret it.

3: Sponsored Posts

In a sponsored article, a company pays you to write about their product or service on their website. While I used to make $100 to $200 for every sponsored piece on Good Financial Cents, I steadily raised my prices.

How much money can you expect to make? Alexis Schroeder, a financial blogger, claims that sponsored articles earn her $3,000 per month consistently. Some larger sites, on the other hand, may easily earn $20,000 or more for each sponsored piece.

If you're going to do sponsored content, I strongly recommend that you only deal with businesses that you believe in and are pleased to support. You won't get much trust from your readers if you promote anything without first ensuring that it aligns with your ideals. This may eventually harm your efforts to expand your website more than the cash from sponsored content would assist.

4: Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is one of the most profitable ways to make money online. My revenues increased in only a few weeks once I was able to add affiliate connections to my website!

Internet brokerages, online banking, and financial tools are examples of financial planning affiliates. You might make a lot of money if you're willing to advertise these firms.

While the affiliates you work with may vary depending on your niche, keep in mind that certain companies will pay you up to $100 for each conversion. It's not tough to start generating real money with that kind of return on your time.

5: Display Ads

Display adverts are similar to Google AdSense in that they do not require the reader to click on the ad to generate revenue. Consider display adverts to be internet billboards rather than roadside billboards.

With display advertising, you will always be paid based on the number of times your commercials are viewed. As a consequence, as the traffic to your website grows, these advertisements will become more successful for you.

6: Freelance Writing

If you don't mind working for a percentage of your earnings, freelance writing is another way to generate money online. Another advantage of freelance writing is the chance to get exposure by contributing to larger websites.

One of the first websites where I wrote articles paid me $150 for each post. This wasn't a lot of money, but it enabled me to improve my writing skills and advertise myself. I don't write for others as frequently as I used to, but I know several freelance writers who earn $250, $500, or even $1,000 for every article.

Working from home, several of the freelance writers I know earn six figures or more per year. Blogger Holly Johnson, for example, makes more than $200,000 a year writing articles on various websites. Johnson also provides a course if you want to become a freelance writer but need some assistance getting started.

7: Getting New Clients for Your Business

I established my blog with the idea of utilizing it to attract new clients for my financial planning company. This strategy worked successfully since my online presence helped me to develop authority and interact with people I would not have met otherwise.

If you operate any form of a service-based business, I strongly suggest you start a blog or develop an online presence that you can use to attract new consumers. This might help you build your client base in the same manner that it did me, plus it's a lot more fun than cold calling or boring lectures.

8: Coaching

If you have an understanding of a certain field, you may also use the internet to start a teaching business. For me, this was an inadvertent event. As I built my blog and brand, a torrent of people approached me, curious about how I did it and how they might apply the same principles to their businesses. I used to offer free advice because I enjoyed it, but I eventually started charging a consultation fee.

The amount you earn is based on the specialty you select. According to current estimates, executive coaches earn roughly $325 per hour, while business coaches earn around $235 per hour. Life coaches, on the other hand, can charge anywhere from $160 to $180 per hour.

If you're an expert in your field and people frequently want to "pick your brain," you should start charging them. Your time, as well as your advice, is really valuable!

9: Selling Leads

I created a website to produce our leads, but I quickly realized that I couldn't manage them all on my own.

After some time, I realized that a few insurance companies were willing to pay for leads generated by my website. These companies would pay anywhere from $35 to $100 per lead, which is absurd. This was a great eye-opener for me because I had no idea this was possible.

It's also worth mentioning that lead purchasers aren't only restricted to life insurance companies. There are several lead generation channels and methods available, so make sure you investigate them all.

10: Digital Products

Even though there are various digital things accessible, there is always room for more. I even have a few of my own!

Another example of a digital object is the wide world of printables. Many online firms make money by developing digital products that their customers may print at home. While many bloggers create their printable budget templates, meal plans, or checklists, Etsy.com provides a plethora of possibilities.

11: Online Courses

I've already talked about my digital products, but keep in mind that you may make practically any digital product on your own. It may be a PDF, a video series, or a course – anything you think would work best for your firm. Just be sure you deliver the things on time and that your product is of high quality. If you sell crap for a profit, you'll rapidly lose street cred.

I noted in an article about how much YouTubers truly make that some of them have their courses. Graham Stephan, a well-known real estate YouTuber, makes a lot of money through his Real Estate Agent Academy, which offers real estate courses. How did he manage to amass so much wealth? His lessons are $497 each. That is only one example; there are plenty of others.

12: Investment Gains

You may create an online brokerage account and invest in ETFs or stocks just like anybody else. I've been able to create at least $100 each day from my assets for a long time, and this income is one of my favorites because it's fully passive.

Remember that having both traditional assets and an online business that may help you produce passive income is vital.

There are so many opportunities for internet investing these days that there is really no excuse not to participate. I'm sick of making excuses, so start saving now for long-term riches.

13: Peer-to-Peer Lending

I've been generating money through peer-to-peer lending for a long time. Borrowers and investors can connect on sites such as Lending Club to conduct mutually beneficial financial transactions. On the investing side, you may put your money into crowdsourced loans for individuals all around the country who need money. The returns on these loans are often high, and you may use these platforms to produce extra passive income while also helping others.

Should you become involved with any of the peer-to-peer lending platforms? David Galland of Gallan Research examined every possibility a few years ago. Finally, he indicated that the best peer-to-peer platforms for investors were Lending Club, Prosper, and Funding Circle.

14: Crowdfunded Real Estate Investing

There are other real estates investing websites available, but Fundrise.com is the one I continue to utilize. You put money into your Fundraise account, and professional investors invest it and pay you dividends on your behalf. If you want to start investing in real estate without the hassles of being a landlord, here's a great way to do it for as little as $500.

15: Sponsored Social Shares

Sponsored social shares function in the same way as sponsored blog posts do, in that a company pays you to promote its products on social media. This may happen on any social media platform, including Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

My buddy is paid to submit photos and talk about things like furniture, rugs, and children's clothing, which is something I don't do much of. It's almost funny how much money you can make, and it's incredible what people will pay for!

16: Selling Stuff Online

My acquaintance also makes money by selling items on the internet. She generally sells items in numerous Facebook groups. For example, she recently sold a free wooden hutch she received as part of a social media promotion.

If you have products to sell and don't mind spending some time generating free adverts on Facebook or a website like craigslist.org, selling goods is a great way to use the internet to make additional money.

17: Sell a Physical Product

Happy Mommy Package was a subscription box that my buddy and one of her business partners used to have. They had 1,000 customers who paid $35 a month for these gorgeous boxes filled with stuff that happy moms enjoy.

She soon felt overwhelmed by it all and chose to close it down with her business partner. This, however, just helps to highlight the breadth of the possibility.

Several well-known YouTubers, for example, have their owners where they sell genuine merchandise. Jeffree Star, for example, sells cosmetics, whilst Jake Paul's web store provides a range of fan items. On Etsy.com, you may also find all types of shops selling homemade soaps, odd home decor, T-shirts, and pretty much anything else you can think of.

Bottom line: Physical objects may help you generate money, so check into the many products you could provide. This might include selling drop-shipped things as an affiliate or designing your product to market.

18: YouTube Ads

Ads on YouTube are straightforward to set up since you only need to allow them when you submit a video. As your readership expands, you'll be able to earn more money using this strategy.

19: Buying and Selling Websites

For several reasons, websites are routinely acquired and sold. It's also simple to find websites that can help you earn some passive income over time if you know what to look for.

I've bought a lot of websites throughout the years. I haven't done anything with the site since I bought it a year ago, yet it still allows me to earn $100 to $150 each month with very little effort.

Flippa.com is an excellent resource for finding domains and URLs that are currently for sale.

20: Brand Sponsorships

sponsorships this strategy, like sponsored content, works in tandem, but it's a lot more complicated. Many businesses want more than simply a sponsored post when it comes to partnering with you. They are frequently willing to pay for a sponsorship package that includes written content, videos, social media shares, and other components.

I've done a few of them over the years, and they can be both profitable and inconvenient! Brand sponsorships, on the other hand, are a wonderful way to augment your online income if you're willing to jump through some hoops and have a significant following.

21: Book or eBook

Finally, you may consider writing a book.

The beautiful thing about a book or an eBook is that once it's out there, you can sell it again and again. You may also write a book on any topic you like! If you're enthusiastic about a subject, a hobby, or a concept, chances are that others are as well.

Final Thoughts

If you need to supplement your income, consider all of the different ways you might generate money on the internet. Even though most of these suggestions don't sound like much fun to you, there's a good chance that one of them will perfectly match your lifestyle and goals. If you start generating money online, you will not be sorry.
