Make money online at home easily by digital products

Confession time. This is my absolute favorite way to make money with a blog.

Why?

Because you control the whole experience and the only thing it is dependent on is you creating value for your tribe. There are a ton of different options for digital products, but I want to focus on just three for this post.

1. Online Courses

This is how I make a living. People love to learn and there is always someone around looking to learn what you are knowledgeable about. If you can package it up into a course then you are good to go.

You can create as many courses as you want and there are a ton of sites out there to help you get everything setup. I’ve used and loved Teachable when I need a 3rd party host for my courses. There are also alternatives like Thinkific that I’ve heard great things about as well.

2. Ebooks

The very first digital product I ever sold was an ebook. Excuse me, I should say the very first digital product I put up for sale was an ebook. I didn’t sell any but that is because I failed to grow a Tribe.

Ebooks are definitely one of the easiest digital products that you can create. You have all the tools required to build an ebook at your disposal. For a basic ebook, all you need is a word processor (Microsoft Word, Google Pages, Apple Pages) that will allow you to export your document as a PDF.

Presto! Insta-ebook.

For my ebooks I like to use DPD to handle payment and delivery. What’s great about this service is when I update my books, I can simply shoot an email to all of my customers letting them know of the updated version.

3. Webinars

Webinars are awesome. They are like live happy hours for you and your tribe. You sit down and talk. That’s it really. You share knowledge about a particular subject and people listen and ask you questions.

My webinar software of choice is Crowdcast. If you want to go with a free option that has less features then check out Google Hangouts.

4. Membership Sites

This one you can’t just do right off the bat. First, you need to build a tribe to make it happen, but once you have that tribe then you are good to go. What’s awesome about membership sites is that they offer you a way to make recurring revenue.

Once you start making recurring revenue you will never turn back. Recurring revenue is money that keeps coming in every month or every year. It truly is a beautiful thing.

If you have a Netflix subscription they are making recurring revenue from you.

Food Blogger Pro is an example of a membership site. Run by the crew over at Pinch of Yum it shows you how to create and monetize a food blog. It’s a pretty awesome idea that I might try to implement here at Obstacle.co one day.

5. Email Coaching

This is one I don’t see that often, but it is still a viable info product.

Email coaching works because people value their time. We are all busy and jumping on phone calls once a day or week or month can be too time-consuming. However, we always have time for email!

This also allows you to coach anyone around the world because time doesn’t play a factor.

6. Email Courses

Similar to an online video course, but in this case you are sending out a series of emails that will teach your audience. Most of the time I see email courses being used as email magnets, but you can very well offer them as a paid info product.

The problem I have with email courses though is that it can be too easy to treat those emails just like any other email. I understand that not every student will complete every course that I create, but I do want to see higher engagement numbers and you will get that with a video course over an email one.

However, it’s not your responsibility to make sure that every student stays on top of their learning. An email course can be setup just like any other autoresponder series or email sequence that you have.

If I were to setup a paid email course then I would use either ConvertKit or Drip. I use both services for different sites. It depends on my needs.

7. Website Themes and Templates

Not necessarily an info product per se, but still a nice way to bring in some money.

Pat Flynn of Smart Passive Income partnered up with StudioPress to release his own theme. So as you can see, you don’t need to build one yourself, but if you aren’t popular yet you probably won’t be given the chance to have a professional studio work with you.

Tiffany over at Beautiful Dawn Designs has done very well providing themes specifically tailored to her audience while also running an awesome blog.

One of the downsides to creating themes and templates is that you will have to spend time handling support. As you know, computers always have hiccups and people will have issues. If you aren’t ready to invest time in helping people with your product then this might be something to avoid for a while.

8. Office Hours

Your audience will love to read everything that you publish, but there are times where they might wish they can speak with you 1-on-1. Offering office hours allows you to sell your time and also help out people.

If you do decide to go this route, make sure you are very specific about how much time a person has to speak with you. If an individual is paying $50 for your time and in your head, that means 30 minutes of conversation, don’t give them 3 hours free of charge.

To make this work you need to get some scheduling software set up. There are a lot of solutions available so this shouldn’t be a problem. Be very specific about what you can help with during these office hours.

If you are a personal finance blogger then you don’t want your office hours to turn into a discussion on diets.

Earning money from your website with the amazing ways

You hear about bloggers who learned how to start a blog and now make money while they sleep — bloggers who take epic vacations or spend all their time with their families, and at the end of each month, they still have money coming in.

Check out these 4 totally legitimate ways to make passive income from your website.

Ship Physical Products (Without the Inventory Headaches)


When you think of selling physical products on your blog, it might seem like a nightmare. You imagine yourself in your living room, surrounded by products and empty boxes, with dozens of printed-out orders in hand, and you’re trying to make sure everybody gets exactly what they ordered.

But these days, you can sell products without needing to store, package, and send them yourself. You can use dropshipping companies that do it for you.

Dropshipping is a method of ecommerce that lets you transmit orders directly to the supplier. The supplier will then take care of the packaging and ship the product directly to the customer.

You don’t have to lift a finger, your spare bedroom doesn’t have to turn into a stockroom, and the USPS guy won’t come knocking on your door every day.

Benny Hsu from Get Busy Living sells his own t-shirts through one of these companies:

Dropshipping

Benny uses Teespring, a shirt and apparel dropshipping and manufacturing company that allows you to design your own products and sell them via its platform.

He earned $100,000 in five months through selling t-shirts. He tested several designs and after he found which ones sold well, he could sit back and watch the sales come in.

Offering a physical product on your blog doesn’t have to mean constant inventory management. It can mean dropshipping and selling your products passively for years to come.

Promote Other People’s Products and Earn Steady Commissions


You probably use several products related to your blog niche, right?

I might even guess that you love some of those products. If you nodded yes, then you can probably reap the benefits of this “holy grail” of passive blogging income: affiliate marketing.

Leanne Vogel, a nutrition educator and the blogger behind the keto blog Healthful Pursuit, uses many supplements in her own diet. So when she’s writing blog posts or recording podcast episodes, mentioning those products is natural.

When one of her audience members buys from her referral link, she makes an affiliate commission. And that, my friends, is “passive income”: referring your audience to products you know and love and getting paid for it, too.

Leanne gets a commission for referring sales to Perfect Keto, and her audience finds out about a product that she loves and uses. It’s a win-win.

Sell Resources and Templates You Created for Personal Use


Sherry, the Canadian blogger behind the blog Save Spend Splurge, found herself in $60,000 worth of debt after college.

This is a predicament shared by many millennials today. But instead of paying her debt back slowly with minimum payments, Sherry created a budgeting template in Excel that helped her get that entire debt load off of her back just 18 months later.

After starting her personal finance blog, Sherry realized something. If her Excel template was powerful enough to clear her debt in 18 months, it could help her readers too.

So she called it “the Budgeting Tool” and listed it for sale on her blog for $50:

The Budgeting Tool

She then made it easy to find by adding a link in her top menu and sidebar:

link to resources from top menu
link to resources from sidebar

You may have created some resources for your personal use that would be useful for your readers, too. In fact, maybe you’ve created a resource that they’d be happy to pay for.

For example, if you blog about weddings and you’ve created your own invitations, you can sell them as printables. If you blog about graphic design, you have probably created Photoshop templates that you could sell. Or if you’re a travel blogger, you could sell bag-packing checklists or trip-planning worksheets.

Whatever niche you’re in, chances are there’s plenty of opportunity for selling such resources and templates.

Become Your Own Book Publisher


Given that you’re a blogger, I assume you love writing. So publishing an ebook is a perfect way to generate passive income. It offers a way to get recurring payments for the powerful words you write down.

This is what Tracy Gillett does on her blog, Raised Good:

publish your own books

She sells The Lost Art of Natural Parenting for $17. She’s set up a sales page on her blog, and also sells it to her subscribers through an email autoresponder series, allowing her to sell her ebook on autopilot:

publish your own books - 2

The beauty of publishing ebooks is that you can offer them to your readers as a digital download, wiping your hands clean of having to handle and ship a physical book. Once you write it, it can truly be passive.

Having written the 129-page ebook in 2016, Tracy can now earn money from selling it for years to come, no matter whether she’s traveling, working in her day job, exploring, or spending time with her son.
