1. Become a Blogger
For years, people are screaming “blogging is dead!”. The truth is many still make hundred and thousands of dollars through blogging. 
More than 90% of bloggers fail because they don’t blog the right way.  There are many who blog only about their lives, their pets, their dinners etc. It’s 2020, this sort of content no longer belongs to a blog. They are more suitable for Facebook and Instagram.
And also, most Malaysian bloggers don’t pick the right niche! It is simply the deadlist mistake among Malaysian bloggers.
Image source: lactoneconsulting.com. The 5 core elements of niche selection.
Beginner bloggers often neglect the fact that we all need to write content that solves other’s problems and content that people actually are searching for.
Long gone are the days for you to blog about your life and expect readers to visit your site. 
Unless you’re a celebrity, nowadays no readers will be bothered to read un-interesting life of some nobody. And they would prefer to consume this kind of lifestyle story on social media like Facebook and Instagram. 
Today, blogging still has a clear advantage that it brings consistent and growing traffic over long period of time. Google still rewards useful article that is properly SEO-optimized. And it brings you consistent traffic over time. 
On the other hand, social media traffic usually decays very quickly over time.
The best part about blogging is that anyone can start a blog with no particular technical skills or knowledge required. 
It is also incredibly cheap to start a blog and you have full flexibility on how and when you’re going to work at it. However, don’t expect it to be an easy passive income. You will need to grind hard for it to start earning money.
Before anything else, to start a blog, you need to get a reliable web host.
How to get started with blogging
Visit Cloudways.com and click on start a free trial.Choose the basic 1GB server sizeAnd pick server location – SingaporeClick launch nowBuy a new domain name at namecheap.comConnect the domain to your blogVisit “yourwebsitename”.com/wp-adminStart blogging
It is essential for beginners to start with the right hosting.
Although it is a bit harder to set up hosting with Cloudways, trust me it is 100% worth the time and effort to do so! I have tried multiple web hosts before, you name it, Bluehost, Hostgator, Siteground. None of them beat Cloudways. 
I have been there and done that. So, you don’t have to start with the wrong hosting as I did. 
Cloudways is definitely the best value for money WordPress hosting for beginners that is fast, powerful and affordable. 
How to earn money blogging
The number one metric for any blog or website is traffic. Without real traffic, everything is in vain.
Once you have got a sizable audience/traffics, blogs can be easily monetized through advertisements like Google Adsense, affiliate programs, sponsored posts, brands collaboration, selling products and many more!
For example, I started Techrakyat.com as a side hustle. Currently, it is generating thousands of ringgit extra income per month for me through affiliate marketing. The two most established affiliate programmes in Malaysia are: involve.asia and accesstrade.

If you feel like earning some pocket money with little to no risk. Why not start blogging today ?!
Advantage of blogging:– Cheap to start, flexible, best for beginners, suitable for introverts, almost zero risk

2. Become a YouTuber
Becoming a YouTuber is incredibly popular among the teenagers. 
Akin to a blog, this is a more advanced version as in you make your content in video format. To me, it is just another form of blogging
If your are not shy of camera and interested in videography, then you should start your own YouTube channel.  
YouTube has an estimated number of 1 billion hours of video being watched every day. The possible traffic reach is just amazing.
Image source. globalmediainsight.com
But at the same time this would mean that being on YouTube, you’ll face lots of competition (the same goes to any online business). My advice is to ignore the competition, learn from the top channels and do your work.
Different from a blog, vlogging needs some basic equipment in order to start. So, you will need to make a small investment in necessary software and hardware.
How to grow your YouTube channel fast
Pre-requisite: a capable pc for editing video, video editing software:  Adobe Premiere Pro or  Filmora9 (cheaper alternatives).
Find video topics that are interesting for the general publicMake use of YouTube research tool to find popular topics. TubeBuddy is good for this purpose.Write great video title to get more viewer’s clickCreate catchy thumbnails that attract viewers’ attention Fill in the SEO keywords tagCross-promote with other YouTube channels as well as on various Facebook groupsStay consistent with your video posting 
How to make money as a Youtuber
Monetization of YouTube channel is even more straight forward. 
The primary source of income for most YouTubers is to enroll in YouTuber Partner Program (YPP).
Image source: YouTube creator academy
This program requires a YouTube channel to have more than 4,000 public watch hours and 1000 subscribers . Once you are approved to become a partner, you can start showing advertisement inside your YouTube video.
Normally, YouTube video is easier to go viral and able to accumulate a huge amount of views faster than a typical blog post. 
So, most YouTubers can make a good living relying only on advertisement earnings.
Other sources of income can be built concurrently too. Things like selling merchandize and sponsored collaboration are very lucrative too.
A few good examples of successful YouTube channels in Malaysia are Sugu Pavitra (recipe channel), Isa Isarb (Mr Beast inspired social experiment content), PlataBush (gaming, Minecraft) and so on.
Advantage of becoming a YouTuber:– Viewers are more engaged with YouTuber Personalities, higher chances to go viral than blogging as long as your video quality is high.Cons of YouTuber:– High quality and engaging videos are extremely time-consuming and labour intensive to produce. The success story of Sugu Pavitra is really one in a million. It is rare that YouTuber rises to fame within such a short time with average content.
3. Make money as TikTok Stars
TikTok, a highly popular smartphone app among teenagers for sharing short videos. 

The thing is TikTok being the new kid in the blocks, is still not as saturated as other platforms like  blogging, Youtube or Instagram.
Due to the system of TikTok platform, people have less resistance in following and liking TikTok videos. So, it is definitely one of the best chance to get into TikTok game to gain a huge following quickly.
How to gain followers fast on TikTok
Quality content is the king. Your video should always be funny, creative, useful or beneficial to the audience.Leverage on trending topicsLeverage on hashtags. Hashtagsforlikes.co is useful to discover the best hashtags.Get inspiration from the successful non-English content creatorsFocus on the 4 pillars of TikTok algorithm: Viewing time, like counts, comments, and share counts. Always encourage viewers to help like, share, and comment.
How to earn money as TikToker
Well, there’s actually no way to earn money directly through the TikTok platform at the moment. 
But remember that we are in the era of attention and eyeballs. If you can win attention, the money will follow. 
In Malaysia, we have seen brands like McDonald and Zalora collaborate with famous TikTokers to produce sponsored videos on TikTok.
I am pretty sure the pay is pretty generous especially deals from big brands.
Alternatively, you can use TikTok as the first touchpoint of traffic source. Then, divert them to other platforms like Facebook and YouTube. 
From there, you can build up your fans and followers on multiple platforms concurrently.
Advantage of TikTok:– Less competitive than other platforms, easier to go viralCons of TikTok:– Slightly harder to monetize
4. Become an Instagram Influencer
Influencer, you heard this buzz word over and over again. Social media influencer is the big thing in recent years, especially an  Instagram influencer.

Many young influencers, especially Gen Z are making a living solely through Instagram.
How to become a high-paid influencer:
Posting regularly with the right #hashtag. Hashtagsforlikes.co can help.Build as many followers as you canPosting engagement needs to be highGet the verified badge on your Instagram accountScore some brand deals
How to make money as Instagram Influencer
First, you must understand you belong to which tier in the Instagram influencer hierarchy. The diagram below shows the estimated monthly earning of Malaysian Instagram Influencer.
Data courtersy of sushivid.com
It is not advisable to accept sponsored deals when you’re just a nano influencer with less than 10,000 followers. 
As you can see above, the amount of money paid (RM300-RM500) for nano influencers is insignificant and would not make a meaningful impact on your life. And the deals that you have done at this stage could harm your future potential deals. 
There are multiple ways you can generate income once you hit more than 10,000 followers and above. 
The most straight forward way is to engage with an influencer marketing platform. In this case, I would recommend SushiVid.com.
SuschiVid act as the medium for both publishers and advertisers. So, you don’t need to actively hunt down new opportunities out there. By the way, it is founded by a Malaysian too, Yuhwen Foong.
But, trust me.  Don’t worry about the money.
Influencer marketing is a huge part of brand marketing in today’s market. Brands are constantly looking for suitable influencers to collaborate. 
So, you should be always focusing on building up your followers instead of worrying on how to monetize it.
One extreme example of successful Instagram influencer would be Kylie Jenner, who single-handedly lifted Kylie Cosmetics into a billion dollars brand in less than 5 years.
Quoted from Kylie Jenner in an interview with Forbes:
Social media is an amazing platform,I have such easy access to my fans and my customers.
Her huge Instagram followings are no doubt the main contributor the her success.
Advantage of being an Instagram Influencer:-Brands love Instagram, can grow a personal brandCons of being an Instagram Influencer:-Need frequent posting, only specific niche like lifestyle, food, beauty and meme can do very well on Instagram
5. Professional Game Streamer
Yes,  you read it correctly! Who could have imagined that people would be able to play games to earn money?? 
Well, this is a reality, as this is the way of living for some gamers.
Apparently, most gamers like to watch other playing games too. It is either to improve their own game and pure entertainment purpose. Watching live stream can be insanely addictive.
Twitch live stream platform
Generally, the more skillful you’re, the easier you gain views and followers. Or, you need to be good with funny commentary while playing game so that viewers do not get bored.

All three major streaming platforms: Twitch, Facebook and YouTube allows advertisement, channel subscription as well as donations. 
Furthermore, you can do brand partnerships with gaming gear brands. And also can do sponsored promotion for games. 
Popular twitch live streamers also often sell their own merchandize, which is very lucrative as well.
As you can see now, live streaming video game is actually very a complete and mature way to make money online from home.

Advantage of being a game streamer:– Doing what you like and earn money at the same timeCons of being a game streamer:– Streaming is very very very time intensive and required strict discipline.
6. Lazada/Shopee Seller
Selling online is simple but difficult at the same time. 

The fact that it is more simple because you don’t need to own a physical store to start selling. Sometimes, you don’t even need to own a product to start selling, which we called dropshipping. 
It is difficult because the competition in the online marketplace like Lazada and Shopee is cutthroat. 
Price wars are not uncommon because consumers can quickly compare the product price in the marketplace. So,  your product has to be useful and priced competitively in order to stand out.
How to get started as Lazada/Shopee seller
Register as a seller at Lazada seller centre.Download Shopee app and activate your seller feature in the appSource your potential products online, overseas or partner with local manufacturersList your products on Lazada and Shopee and start sellingJoin Shopee/Lazada Facebook group to learn more
How much can I earn as Lazada/Shopee seller
It depends. 
Many beginner sellers fail at choosing the right product to sell at the right price point. They may end up earning nothing in a day, or only pennies.
On the other hand, successful sellers earn thousands of ringgit each day and run like a real business. 
Selling online is not only a side hustle, but a full-fledged business if done right.
Advantage of selling on Lazada/Shopee:– Quicker to start earning money because it involves physical products that customers actually need in their life.Cons of selling on Lazada/Shopee:– Very small margin when you take into consideration of shipping fee, platform service fees etc. 
7. Build an Ecommerce Business
If you have a unique product, don’t sell it on Lazada Shopee. 
Instead, you should sell it on your own webstore. You can set it up using Sitegiant.

It prevents your product from being sold as a comodity in a marketplace where the lowest price product always win. 
Setting up your own webstore is always wise in order to build a brand and  keep a healthy product profit margin.

Much like Lazada/Shopee seller, Ecommerce business earning potential can be scaled exponentially if the marketing done right.

There are many other Ecommerce success stories in Malaysia. And let’s not forget grey area product like Vape juice which is very popular and sell like hot cake amongst the millennials.
Advantage building own webstore:– No need to pay service fees to platforms, no need constantly competing for cheaper selling price, able to build your own brandCons of building own webstore:– Need to do marketing on your own, can be a bit technical to set up

Users don’t need to be knowledgeable in the stock market and finance.It is cheap. Robo advisor platform management fees are typically less than 1% a year.

2. StashAway
StashAway is the earliest Robo Advisor platform in Malaysia and charges the lowest annual fees among competition, at only 0.2% to 0.8%
The key features of StashAway are that it invests in foreign ETF primarily U.S fund. And they make investment decisions based on macroeconomic indicator data.
Other features of Stashaway including:
Unlimited transfers and withdrawals with no chargesReal customer supportPolished smartphone app for iOS and Android
And the best part, StashAway has no minimum initial investment. You can start with any amount of money to get a taste of Robo advisor.
BUT
I don’t recommend to invest with Robo Advisors at current timing and turmoil
21. P2P Lending 
P2P or peer to peer lending have been quite popular in the foreign market like the U.S and China. 
P2P lending means individuals lend money directly to borrowers through online platforms (without going through banks). This makes it easier as borrowers can obtain loans without having to go through the strict requirements of banks.

In order to secure loan faster, P2P borrower usually willing to pay a higher than usual interest rate.
It also means that lender able to earn an interest rate which is higher than the usual fixed deposit rate in the bank.
However, P2P lending can go very wrong when the system is not being governed and regulated. In fact, China had to totally ban online P2P lending in 2019 due to the large numbers of fraud cases. 
Learning from the precedence, we recommend only invest with reputable platforms that put lenders’ interest as the priority and vet through the borrowers. 
This is extremely important as it greatly reduces our risk. Hence, I recommend only to invest with funding societies in Malaysia.

How to start investing in funding societies?
In general, Funding Societies’ investment opportunities are higher in amount (usually up to RM1 million) and shorter in tenure (typically within 12 months). 
Funding Societies has two forms of investments, namely Business Term Financing (money raised used as working capital, capital expenditures or business expansion) and Invoice Financing (sellers sell their future receivables to buyers to get immediate cash).
For Invoice Financing, investors will get their payment at the end of the financing tenure rather than monthly payments as it’s much shorter ranging from 30 to 120 days as compared to Business Term Financing that ranges from 1 to 24 months.
To sign up and activate your account – minimum deposit of RM1,000.Lowest amount to invest – RM100.I don’t recommend to turn on Auto-Allocation feature. Each investment should be carefully judged and filtered
BUT
Similar to Robo Advisors, I don’t recommend to do P2P lending at current market condition. There are far too many disstressed business that could go buzz any time.
