1. Sell and earn
This is one of the easiest ways you can start earning money. Sell things you don’t use! If you have books you don’t need any more there is Bookscouter that will pay you for them. A few other selling sites are Zazzle and Cafepress where you can sell t-shirts and gifts if you enjoy design and graphics. But, if you are not confident about starting this gig yet, we have places like skillshare that offer online classes where you can upgrade your skills. There are people making way more than a full-time income online, like this family. Definitely, something to think about if you are looking to start a business involving the adults in the house!
2. Freelancing
Do you have skills you like to offer for cash? Fiverr is a great place to start. You can provide basic services like graphic designing, crafts, logo making, writing, programming and a lot more. If you are looking for a side hustle that pays you more, you can try virtual assisting or freelance writing. These are in-demand career options if you are looking for a work at home job. You can live anywhere to work as a virtual assistant or a freelance writer and it’s fully flexible to work around your student life. If you are someone that uses Pinterest often and loves this platform, why not make money from it? As a Pinterest Virtual assistant, you will help clients set up an account, create graphics and grow their business. This is a great career option that can earn you a good part-time income from home.
3. Provide a service
If you are good at baking, cooking or hairdressing, you can offer these services to friends and family and earn some extra cash. Dig deep into what you are interested in, and offer your skill for some money. If it’s your friends birthday you can offer to bake a cake or do their hair for a price that’s a lot lesser than if they were to go to a hairdresser.

7. Start a blog
This is one of my favorites and is what makes me an income from home. You can make thousands a month or a few hundred dollars based on the amount of time you contribute to your site. Starting a money making blog requires a little investment and would cost you less than $4/month, but is worth investing. You can always continue to blog and earn, along with your full-time job later on. Definitely worth considering.
