1.Blogging
This has to be the topmost choice of moms wanting to opt for a location independent job. Blogging is extremely flexible and the best choice for women, stay at home moms and dads as well as digital nomads.
It could be a full-time income or a location independent side hustle with part-time income – whatever you may like.
I recently interviewed this blogger who makes $100k a month (yes, you read it right), a mom who makes $600+ with a new blog and finally, there is me – a woman who makes $5000 a month with her blog
So, it is true –
You can REALLY make a full-time income with blogging. There are many bloggers who started making $1000-3000 a month from their first year of blogging and they get to be completely location independent.
That’s crazy, isn’t it? If you love to write, network and market, blogging is FOR YOU.
There are many ways to monetize your blog. You can focus on
- CPM ad networks (not Google Adsense)
- Affiliate marketing (discussed below
- Sponsored posts or
- selling your own digital product
Blogging is one of the best stay at home jobs for moms because it is incredibly profitable and flexible!
