ETSY
While sellers only make an average $151 with Etsy, there’s no denying that the platform is the go-to place to sell your crafts online. You can sell pretty much anything on Etsy, from sculptures to jewelry to cards and everything in between. If you’re already pretty crafty you may as well earn a little money on the side by selling your goods.
A very small number of sellers, around 1%, earn between $1,000 and $1,499 per month and while we encourage you to dream big, it’s best to keep your expectations reasonable. It’s also worth mentioning that Etsy will charge you a 3.5% fee on your sales.
UPWORK
Upwork is a great place for freelancers to look for work in a variety of categories. Writers, marketing experts, and IT specialists can easily find work on the platform- and they aren’t the only ones.
The payment protection system ensures safety for both parties, so you don’t have to stress about getting scammed. Your wages depend on your area of expertise and even in each category, it can vary from one job to the next.
