2 Passive Income Ideas That Will Make $1000/Day for You

Introduction

If your life is anything remotely similar to mine or to that of millions of other people, you are probably working a full-time job, spending 8 long hours or more at work, and yet, you can hardly make ends meet at the end of the month. Wouldn’t it be nice to have another source of income or a side hustle that can generate for income for you even while you sleep? Today, I will discuss a list of passive income ideas that will make you money on autopilot. I have done, and I am still doing, every single of these ideas that I am about to share with you.  So, they are not just theory.

To be very clear, these are no get-rich-quick ideas. If you are looking for something for nothing or some get-rich-quick scheme, please look elsewhere. Some of these ideas may take up to six months or more of consistent hard work to get traction. However, if you work hard on each of these ideas and persevere for at least a year, you will begin to generate passive income. I can promise you that.

Idea #1: Start a Video Channel on YouTube and TikTok

The first passive income idea is to start a video channel on YouTube and Tiktok. Most people will tell you only about YouTube, but TikTok has become a formidable passive income earner for many individuals. Don’t just take my word for it.

Here are just two examples of individuals who have made significant income through their YouTube or TikTok channels:

1. PewDiePie (YouTube): PewDiePie is a gaming YouTuber who has over 110 million subscribers and has earned millions of dollars through his channel. He has a broad appeal among gamers and non-gamers alike, and his entertaining and engaging videos have helped him grow a massive following.
2. Addison Rae (TikTok): Addison Rae is a TikTok influencer who has over 87 million followers on the platform. She has built a massive audience through her dance videos and lifestyle content and has leveraged her popularity to launch a successful career as a social media influencer and entrepreneur.

Of course, those are the big breakout examples. You and I know that while some individuals have made significant income through their YouTube or TikTok channels, there is no guarantee of earning a specific amount of money. The success of your channel will depend on a variety of factors, including the quality of your content, your marketing strategy, and your ability to build and engage with your audience.

So, yes, starting a video channel on YouTube or TikTok is a great way to make passive income online. Make no mistake about it, it would take an average of 1-2 years of consistent effort to grow a following and monetize your content. But if you are patient, it can ultimately lead to a significant income stream.

Step-by-step guide on how to get started

Step 1:

Choose Your Topic: The first step is to choose a topic or niche for your channel. It’s important to choose something that you’re passionate about and that has a broad appeal to your target audience. Some popular niches on YouTube and TikTok include beauty, gaming, cooking, travel, and lifestyle.

Step 2:

Set up Your Equipment: To start creating content for your channel, you’ll need a recording device. You can use a smartphone, a webcam, or a digital camera to record your videos. It’s also a good idea to invest in a quality microphone and lighting setup to ensure that your videos have good sound and lighting.

Step 3:

Create Amazing Content: Once you have your equipment set up, it’s time to start creating content for your channel. You can start by brainstorming ideas for your first few videos and creating a content calendar to plan out your future content. It’s important to make sure that your videos are high-quality, engaging, and provide value to your audience.

Step 4:

Build and Nurture Your Audience: Once you have a few videos uploaded, it’s time to start building your audience. You can do this by promoting your channel on social media, engaging with your audience in the comments section, and collaborating with other YouTubers or TikTokers in your niche. Consistency is key to growing your audience, so make sure to upload new content regularly.

Step 5:

Monetize Your Channel: Once you have a sizeable following, you can start monetizing your channel. YouTube and TikTok both offer monetization options for creators, such as ads, sponsorships, and product placements. You can also sell merchandise or offer premium content to your audience for an additional income stream.

Step 6:

Consistency is the name of the game! Set a schedule and post a new content, every week, all year round. If you are consistent and you deliver great content, your audience will learn to expect amazing content from you.

Step 7:

YouTube is now offering Shorts to compete with TikTok. This is good for you as a videoprenuer. I recommend that you make YouTube videos between 7 minutes – 17 minutes. Videos about 15 minutes in length is the happy medium for most YouTube viewers. Then, cut important and catchy sessions in smaller shorts you can then post both in YouTube Shorts as well at TikTok. This saves you lost of time and leverages one content for different channels.

Finally, for a video channel, there are no quick fixes or short cuts. You have to commit to giving incredibly engaging and useful content at a regular schedule all year long. Especially for YouTube, it takes time to get some traction – to reach 1000 subscribers or 4000 watch hours. But once your videos catch on, it is a domino effect from then on. This is why you must choose a topic or niche that you really love and aim to elevate other people. See your channel as an outlet to make a difference – something you would do even if there is no monetary reward.

Idea #2: Start a Blog

Starting a blog is another great way to make passive income online. Bloggers can monetize their content through a variety of methods, including display ads, affiliate marketing, or sale of digital products. It’s probably hard for some to believe, but blogging can make you significant passive income over time. I can tell you five examples right now of individuals making significant passive income through their blogs:

Here are 5 examples of blogs that are making their owners significant passive income:

1. Pinch of Yum: Pinch of Yum is a food blog that makes over $50,000 per month through display ads, affiliate marketing, and sponsored content. They have a large following on social media and create high-quality, visually appealing content.
2. Making Sense of Cents: Making Sense of Cents is a personal finance blog that makes over $100,000 per month through affiliate marketing and digital products. The blogger, Michelle, has built a massive following through her informative and engaging content.

How to start a successful blog

Step 1:

Choose Your Niche: The first step is to choose a niche or topic for your blog. It’s important to choose something that you’re passionate about, something you really care about, and also a niche that has a broad appeal to your target audience. Some popular niches for blogs include health and wellness, personal finance, travel, and lifestyle.

Step 2:

Choose a Blogging Platform and Hosting Platform:  Next, you’ll need to choose a blogging platform and host for your blog. WordPress is a popular option for bloggers because it’s easy to use and customize, and there are plenty of plugins and themes available to enhance your blog’s functionality and design. Other hosting providers include WP Engine and Interserver. It is so easy to set up your site with just one click through these wp hosting providers.

The advantage of starting a blog this way is that it costs you very little in terms of startup cost to get launched. For the most part, the hosting cost could be anywhere from $10 – $20 per month. My team and I use Interserver because you get almost unlimited websites hosting and amazing support. Literarily, those guys respond to any requests within 3-4 hours.

Step 3:

Design Your Blog: Once you’ve chosen your platform and host, it’s time to design your blog. You can choose from a variety of templates and themes to customize the look and feel of your blog. It’s important to choose a design that’s easy to navigate and visually appealing to your audience. The best way to do this is to use WordPress premium themes that are already optimized for bloggers and for SEO. There are many premium theme sellers to choose from, but from our experience, the best place to get quality themes at affordable one-time price is through Themeforest.

They are a marketplace for different premium theme sellers. That means that you get to see a lot of choices and review unbiased reviews before you buy.

Also, another reason we like themeforest is the fact that they offer everything from ready-made PHP scripts to premium WordPress themes on almost any niche you can think of. However, if you search for popular premium wp themes on any search engine right now, you are likely to see a lot of people recommending Divi and Extra themes (from Elegant Themes) or Astra theme. Let me clear up a few things here. First, Divi, Extra, and Astra are great themes, but the reason they are more popular is because the providers offer great affiliate programs; so there are a lot of affiliates promoting these themes.

For example, wpbeginner is one of more popular blog on WordPress, and they would almost always recommend these. Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with affiliate programs. In fact, right here at Successfulhealthhabits, we are glad to recommend amazing products to our readers to enhance their health – physically, mentally, and financially. But we have decided to always provide readers with the best options and then let them decide for themselves.

Having said that, if you can afford these annual subscription-based themes from Elegant themes and Astra, then, they are definitely worth it, since they are well maintained and updated regularly. However, you should also know that you can get amazing premium wp themes at themeforest and other places like that which don’t break a bank and are just for a one-time fee, along with free annual updates!

Step 4:

Create High-Quality Content: Now it’s time to start creating content for your blog. It’s important to make sure that your content is high-quality, informative, and engaging to your audience. You can use free SEO tools such as Google Analytics and Keyword Planner, Yoast SEO, or SEMrush to research popular topics and keywords to include in your content.

Step 5:

Build Your Audience: Once you have a few blog posts published, it’s time to start building your audience. You can do this by promoting your blog on social media, engaging with your audience in the comments section, and collaborating with other bloggers in your niche. Consistency is key to growing your audience, so make sure to publish new content regularly.

Step 6:

Monetize Your Blog Once you have a sizeable audience, you can start monetizing your blog. There are several ways to do this, including display ads, affiliate marketing, and sponsored posts. You can also sell digital products or offer premium content to your audience for an additional income stream.

How to Accelerate Your Growth: Practical Tips

Before we round up our discussion today on these two income ideas that could generate $1000/day on autopilot for you, let me give you two suggestions that, if implemented, could radically increase your productivity on these two ideas discussed:

1. You may use Chatgtp to generate blog ideas. You can even turn around and query Chatgtp with those ideas and general a rough draft. But you must only see this as a rough draft! Chatgtp is great, but it is still a developing technology. It can make some mistakes. So, beware. More than that though, it is a machine! You have to edit the draft to make it your own, to give it your voice, to personalize it to your audience – and your audience is definitely a living and breathing thing.
2. Once you have posted your blog, you can use the blog content as the backbone for your next Youtube and TikTok post! There are now tons of apps that can convert text to audio and then to video. Some can take your blog post and convert it to a video directly! Cool, eh? Of course, we are talking about AI voices, so some of them may sound robotic enough! So, you must be sure of the service you are using. Fortunately, there are now a few services with human-like AI voices that gets the job done. But if you are able or willing to show your face and be the presenter in your own video, even better! Go for it. But I want you to know that just because you are not comfortable showing your face or even using your own voice, it does not mean you are unable to run an amazing YouTube channel.
3. Although there are some apps now that claim to offer both text to audio and audio to video, such as Synthesys, these are apps are truly limited in the length of videos you can make. Besides, it takes significant amount of time. Due to those reasons, we choose to convert first convert text to audio through apps like NaturalReaders.com or Murf.io.
4. We like NaturalReaders because their price is affordable, and they have a few incredible AI voices based on real human voices. But to use the audio there for commercial purposes (including Youtube), remember to sign up for their commercial plan and not the personal plan. Then, after we have converted our blog to text, we then take the audio file over to FlexClip.com and convert it to audio. The great thing about FlexClip is that it is free!
