10 Side Hustles That Earn You $1k/Month Or More

If you're looking to supplement your income or want to start earning money from home, these side hustles can help you earn an extra $1,000 per month!

1. Freelance writing

If you have experience writing for blogs or websites, freelance writing is a great way to earn some extra cash. The pay isn't always that great, but the exposure is usually worth it.

Writing for online publications: If you want more of an audience and better pay, try finding someone who runs an online publication and pitching them your ideas! They'll probably want a lot of content too so keep that in mind when making your pitch.

Writing for businesses or companies: Many businesses are willing to pay writers either part-time or full-time to write about their products/services because they know it will help them reach new customers through exposure on the internet!

This can be very lucrative if done correctly, so make sure to go in with a lot of research beforehand so that everything stays professional both inside and out (e.g., grammar should never slip outside!).

Upwork provides a simple and streamlined platform for finding freelance employment. However, there may be suitable alternatives to Upwork for you, depending on your abilities.

2. Freelance graphic design

If you are a graphic designer, you can make money by working as a freelancer. You will need to have a portfolio that demonstrates your skills and the ability to use the software necessary for designing logos and other graphics.

Some clients may pay more if they know what kind of work you have done in the past, so it is important to include examples of previous projects with your resume when applying for jobs. You can also create websites or write blog posts or ebooks as part of your side hustle if this interests you as well!

This type of work is not limited by location; anyone with internet access can do freelance design work from anywhere in the world!

3. Voice over work

Voice-over work is a great way to earn money online. You can record audio and video of your own voice, or you can provide services as a voice-over artist.

Voice-over artists are usually paid by the hour or by the finished product, depending on how they're contracted. For example, if you were hired to provide narration for an audiobook, then your earnings will be based on how much time it takes for you to read through all of the chapters in that book (or sections of each chapter).

As with any other side hustle, there are pros and cons associated with being a voiceover artist:

Pros: You'll get paid for doing something that's fun! And most people would agree that talking into a microphone is pretty easy work once you get past feeling silly about it at first.

Cons: You may have trouble finding clients at first since not everyone knows what this kind of work entails.

Since there aren't many established companies involved in this industry yet (unlike other types listed above), it may take some time before clients start recognizing its value and taking advantage of what it has to offer them.*

4. Photography

While photography is not just about taking pictures, it is certainly an important aspect of the job. You need to have a good eye for good photos, but you also have to be able to capture them in the first place.

And that means having good equipment (camera and lenses), lighting, and knowledge of the technical aspects of photography - exposure, aperture, shutter speed, and ISO settings.

It goes without saying that you should be proficient at editing your photos as well. This isn't something most people are willing to pay for so you'll want your images looking their best before sending them off for use in advertisements or other purposes where they need to be up-to-par quality-wise.

5. Copywriting

Copywriting is the art of writing content for websites, blogs, and other digital platforms. Copywriters are often responsible for creating website copy or blog posts, email newsletters, landing pages, and more.

The best way to get started in copywriting is by signing up for services like Fiverr or Upwork (formerly called Elance). These sites allow you to post your services and set your rates as low as $5 per job. Some clients may require revisions until they're satisfied with the final product; however, most won't expect anything more than one editing round unless there was a major error in the first draft.

Some clients will require that you sign an NDA before working with them; if this is something you aren't comfortable doing then it might not be worth pursuing this side hustle at all! But if you can stomach doing work behind closed doors without seeing any credit for yourself then go ahead!

6. SEO copywriting

SEO copywriting is a way of writing content that will rank well in search engines. It's used by small businesses and startups that want to get more traffic from Google, as well as other sites like Facebook and Twitter.

Many people want to do SEO copywriting because it's an easy side hustle you can start with little experience or training. The best way to find clients for this type of work is through freelance websites like Upwork or Freelancer. If you're new to freelance work, be sure to read our guide on how much money you can expect to make on these platforms!

You'll generally charge between $20-$30 per article at first, but if you do your job well, it's possible that your price will increase over time as demand increases (and if so - go with it!).

7. Social media management

Social media management is a side hustle that you can do anywhere, but it's typically best suited for those who have their own home office or at least have the flexibility to work from home. You can also freelance as a social media manager, which means you'd be working as an independent contractor.

If you're looking to make money as a social media manager, it's essential that your clients are willing to pay your fee in cash or PayPal so that they don't create any red flags on their credit cards during tax season next year.

Customers will often not want to pay much for social media management because they think "it's just free advertising" and "it doesn't take much time." However, there is still value in having someone specialized in this field do their marketing for them - especially if said person has experience with getting results!

8. Online teaching or tutoring

The online teaching industry is booming, and teaching online has become a viable way to make money. If you're well-versed in a topic and passionate about it, then it may be worth considering starting your own business as an online teacher.

Online tutoring is a flexible, remote job that allows you to work from home and set your own hours while still earning decent money.

It's also easy to get started: most platforms require you to pass an exam or create a profile (usually via an application form), but after that you can start tutoring right away!

9. Web development or design work

If you're a web designer or developer, freelancing can be a great way to earn additional income while also building your portfolio.

If you're interested in this side hustle, it's important to note that it's not just about creating beautiful designs - you'll need solid coding skills and work experience. A good place to start is with the popular site Upwork (formerly oDesk), which offers a variety of freelance opportunities for both designers and developers alike.

In this role, successful candidates should expect to earn between $30-$50 per hour based on their experience level and the type of project they are working on.

10. Consulting work in your industry of expertise

Consulting work is a great side hustle because you can earn good money from it without having to worry about selling products or services. You can make up to $100 an hour by helping out other businesses and making the most out of your knowledge and skills.

The best part about consulting is that you don't need any capital to get started. All it takes is a bit of effort on your part, which means that even if you live in an expensive city, this side hustle might still be right up your alley!

To start doing consulting work, first, look around at what kind of businesses already exist in your area related to yours (or ones that could potentially benefit from what you offer).

Then reach out to them with some advice: send them an email explaining how their business could benefit through hiring one or more experts like yourself - and offer a free consultation as well as rates for long-term contracts if they like what they hear!

If people aren't willing to pay for help yet then offering free advice may be enough for them; once someone sees how valuable it really is then hopefully they'll come back around later asking for more help when things get tough again."
