3 ways to make some extra cash during quarantine

The coronavirus quarantine can be frustrating, especially for those who aren’t able to work from home. When you’re not able to work, it adds a whole new layer of worry to your coronavirus fears. Fortunately, there are a few ways you can try and make some extra cash while staying at home. If you’re in a tight spot financially, here are a few ideas to get you started…

Sell your content: Okay, you can’t really expect anyone to buy your blog, but you can try and monetize it! If you’ve got a decent following and you think this is a possible next step for you and your blog, here’s some advice to help you get started.

Sell your creations: Whatever it is that you like to create (crafts, trinkets, leather goods, custom denim) it’s never been easier to sell your stuff online. Open up an account on Etsy and your first sale will hopefully get you excited about the next one. Once you’re set up, it should be fairly easy to maintain. Plus, you’ll love your new boss.

Sell your photographs: Is there anyone who doesn’t do photography on the side these days? If you’ve taken some great photos over the years, why not turn those pics into cash? Check out iStock by Getty Images and start making royalties off of your JPGs. The bigger your portfolio, the better.

These are just a few ideas for making extra cash. If you’re in need of some extra dough, there are tons of other ways you can earn money without ever leaving the house. Fire up the “Google-machine” and find the right idea for you.
