I can tell you the exact methods that I used to earn money online using my laptop and internet connection.
You can make money online:
- If you have a passion to learn a new skill (like content writing, SEO, designing, video editing)
- You can work consistently on your side business even if you don’t earn anything in the initial days.
11 Fast Ways to Earn Money Online
1. Become a Freelancer
If you are a good programmer, designer or marketer then you can find a lot of paid online jobs in India. You just need to be patient and willing to learn more. Freelancing is the best way to earn money online without any investment if you have the required skills.
You need to have two skills to become a good freelancer. One is your core skill, and the second skill is marketing. If you are not a good marketer, then seek help from an experienced marketer to make your profile. You have to have excellent communication skills to get clients.
2. Become a Stock Trader
You don’t need any money to start a freelance work but you would need a little money to start your career as a stock trader.
You can earn money online by doing stock trading if you know how to pick the right stock. You need a demat & trading account to start trading.
I must make you aware that you may lose money in stock trading so better to start with less money and invest more time in learning the basics of stock trading.
You can learn how to earn Rs. 1000 daily from intraday trading. You can start trading after learning the basics of stock trading.
Discount brokers are best for intraday trading as they charge fix brokerage up to Rs 20/trade irrespective of trade volume.
#3. Become a Consultant
You can sell your advice and knowledge to many people. You don’t have to be a super expert in one domain to become a consultant or teacher, you just have to be better than your student or client.
Anyone with a core competitive skill can become a consultant and find clients online. For example, if you are a legal or finance professional, then you can make your website, and start attracting clients online.
4. Earn Online Money from YouTube
You might not know that people are making millions from youtube. Again, not an easy option, but very much doable for anyone who can record & upload videos on a particular topic.
Two kinds of people can make successful YouTube channels, one who make funny & entertaining videos, second who can make highly helpful videos for a niche audience (like students, mothers, housewives, tech geeks).
5. Make Money from Social Media
There is no limit on earning money from Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.
The social media fan base is an asset for such people, most of them are in the entertainment domain. People related to fashion and entertainment domain can monetise their Instagram page.
6. Become Domain Flipper
You can buy brandable domains and sell at a higher price at domain marketplaces.
I own more than 50 domains at this time. I keep on investing in the domains and sold one domain at the valuation of $15,000 (equivalent to Rs. 10 lakh). When you start working on your online business then you will also learn how to make money from the domain selling.
7. Income from Content Writing
You can earn money easily if you know how to write good content. You can learn the art of copywriting to make a decent income online.
Good content writers are high in demand who are earning upto $200 per article.
8. Start A Blog
Your blog can be your online business, it will take some time to build your website traffic and earn money. But once you start earning money from blog, then your blog generate money even when you are sleeping.
You can create Ads using simple Google Adsense and earn money with google.
9. Learn Affiliate Marketing
Starting affiliate marketing is similar to running a retail shop. You signup with retailers like Amazon and Flipkart, promote your favourite products on your website and social media to make decent money.
I am discussing affiliate marketing as a separate option because it can fit with any kind of online business. Some people don’t even have a website but make money through affiliate marketing.
10. Sell Softwares Online
That is the most beautiful and profitable way of running an online business. You can build small products and sell them on subscription model (Software as a Service).
You can also launch paid mobile apps for Android and Apple. You can make one million dollars if your $10 app is downloaded by 100,000 people.
11. Sell Products Through Shopify
You must be having some products in mind to sell on an online store – it could be electronics, designer jewellery or handkerchiefs.
You can easily launch your online store using shopify and sell your products worldwide.

Hello Mihit,
If you have any financial issues then you need not pay for the website in starting, you may create a free website and start promoting using social media to get quality traffic to your blog where you have your affiliate link.
You can start a blog. You can also do this work for free.
I’m a student….studying engineering but I love writing stories and something about love quotes …as I’m in my deep thoughts. I can express myself here in writing about what express my heart when I’m alone and when I’m happy

Am, It’s a very common weakness in most if the peopke.: We don’t know our own special kills and also are unaware of our weakness.
But I wanted to explore my own self.

You too may do the same.

Woah! Amazing. What a beautifully well written post is this. I just loved each and every word written by you. You thoroughly explained. Now, if I talk about myself. I’m from Delhi, India and I love digital marketing, blogging, e-commerce, internet business. I’ve learned the basic courses of digital marketing but not the advance one. When I start reading your post then I felt you written for me. Because, right now I don’t have money and not able to earn it because of the lack of skills. I will not walk on the wrong path. No, data entry jobs or scams. It’s true I need the quick money but no loan please. It’s been a long time reading blogs after blogs, articles after articles but still not started a blog. The reason is simple lack of
skills in the areas like “Content writing ,SEO, video editing, stock market trading etc. I’ve read the complete blog post word by word. There are lot of other blog post links you shared in this post and I have already opened in other tabs. I will read it for sure. I do know that all the reading and knowledge is waste, if I won’t take the action. I just need guidance from your side to improve my content writing skills, SEO, e-commerce business. I don’t want to work for anyone. I want to sharpen written skills, SEO and marketing Skills for to start my own blog, own e-commerce business. I want to improve in all of these areas. Right now very hungry but the problem I don’t know how to make the tasty food and definitely don’t have the money to buy it. But, the good thing is I do have the Internet, Laptop, Mobile to learn the recipes to make the food. So, what do you think sir?

Hi Pradeep,
I appreciate this blog which has lots of information. This is in English, but your youtube videos are in Hindi which is very disappointing. If you can do them in English it would be more helpful, reach a wider audience.
Hi Sreenivas,
Thanks for your feedback. I am making videos in English also. Please suggest me what you found disappointing & how I can improve on that.
