The beautiful thing about the digital age is the limitless opportunities that we can tap into regardless of where we are in the world. With the cost of living rising, you probably aren’t going to get a raise high enough or fast enough to balance out your new expenses.

Now is a great time to start looking into side hustles that you can do with just your computer and an internet connection. Another good thing is that you can learn how to do all of these side hustles from free courses, YouTube videos and online forums. I will also throw in a few side hustles that you can dive into if you have a car or a house.

With services like PayPal, Payoneer and Wise, we can connect to any platforms payment services for pay-outs and if we need to directly send credit card invoices to international clients, we can use services like WiPay, Fygaro or the bank's e-commerce solutions.

Without further ado, here are 20 side hustles that you can start:

1. Become a rideshare driver

2. Online coaching in your area of expertise

3. Social media management

4. Create social media content for businesses

5. Affiliate marketing

6. Sell stock photos/videos/graphics

7. Buy and sell products of your choosing

8. List your property on Airbnb

9. Become a virtual assistant

10. Online tutoring

11. Start blogging

12. Start a podcast

13. Manage social media profiles

14. Become a proofreader

15. Become a transcriptionist

16. Become a freelance writer

17. Freelance voiceover artist

18. Design WordPress, Wix, and Shopify sites

19. Start a task business

20. Sign up for food delivery service (Food Drop, Skip D Line, WiEats)

If you have a vehicle then I would highly recommend you have that car make money for you and start looking at joining the rideshare apps, or, if you don’t want to transport people, you can join the food delivery services. The great thing about these options is that you can work 100 per cent on your time.

If you want more ideas about what types of freelancing jobs you could be doing, I advise you to take a trip to Fiverr.com and start just looking through all of the various jobs that are available on the platform. There are thousands!

The other great thing about freelance platforms like Fiverr, Upwork or Freelancer.com is that you already have tons of skills that you are probably taking for granted, and you could be listing those skills on the platforms so that you can perform those tasks for clients anywhere in the world.

Remember, a side hustle doesn’t need to be something that replaces your full-time income – but if it eventually does, then great.

I would also advise you to start doing some free courses so that you can learn new skills so and start creating that side income. Some of my favourite places to get started would be HubSpot Academy, Alison.com and YouTube.

When I began Droid Island, it was just a blog teaching about smartphones and how to get things done on your devices. I added Google AdSense a
