I wrote this article covering best work from home jobs in 2023, and I thought it would be fitting to add some updates for the 2024 version.
Side hustles can be a great way to make extra $200 per week to get out of debt quickly or save for other things.
While I had some ideas in 2023, I wanted to provide a new fresh set of ideas in 2024.
1. Graphic Designer
In the realm of e-commerce, captivating visuals are paramount. Graphic design skills, whether for branding or illustration, are highly sought after in the remote job market.
Platforms like Canva provide a launchpad for graphic design enthusiasts to transition into remote work.
Also, you can check out Upwork and Fiverr for more information about doing this online.
2. Walking Dogs
This is an easy side hustle that just requires a love for animals, but getting paid to walk dogs and not have all of the other issues.
Sign me up please!
I had a friend recently that made a lot of money just walking dogs via Rover. It’s not fool proof, and it’s not at home per se, but I wanted to include it.
3. Web Developer
This may be the challenging, but most lucrative of the bunch
If you possess coding skills, the office is no longer a requisite for lucrative opportunities. Many companies seek remote web developers, particularly small businesses aiming to enhance their online presence.
Web development encompasses back-end, front-end, and full-stack roles, catering to various skill sets. For novices, mastering Python serves as a stepping stone into this in-demand field.
4. Bookkeeper
Are spreadsheets your forte? Bookkeeping offers a gateway to remote employment involving tasks like financial record keeping and report generation. Platforms like Indeed, LinkedIn & Yulys host a plethora of remote bookkeeping positions, ideal for those adept at organizing financial data.
5. Content Creator
While the influencer era may have waned, content creation remains a lucrative pursuit. Platforms like YouTube present monetization avenues through affiliate marketing and AI-driven content creation. Even without a penchant for being on camera, video editing skills can bolster your prospects in the remote job market.
6. Freelance Writer
Proficiency in writing opens doors to freelance opportunities, encompassing a diverse range of content creation. Niche expertise, such as pet care, enhances your appeal to relevant clients, ensuring quality content tailored to specific audiences.
7. Online English Teacher
Capitalizing on teaching skills, remote English tutoring addresses the global demand for English proficiency. Platforms like VIPkid offer lucrative opportunities for English speakers, irrespective of geographical constraints. Additionally, non-native English speakers can leverage their language proficiency to teach online.
8. Social Media Manager
A natural affinity for social media can translate into a rewarding career as a remote social media manager. Responsibilities include promoting brands and engaging with customers, making it ideal for individuals with a background in marketing.
9. Customer Service Agent
After COVID, many organizations considered keeping customer service jobs remote.
As such, you can often be a customer service agent for an organization and have some flexibility in terms of your hours.
When I started my first tech startup, I wanted to see whether some people would be interested working east coast hours and/or a weekend day.
This gives you flexibility to set your own schedule as a side hustle.
10. Proofreader
For those inclined towards reading, remote proofreading offers an avenue to ensure grammatical accuracy across various content formats. Online resources provide guidance for aspiring proofreaders, making it accessible to novices.
Conclusion
Remote work appeals to a myriad of individuals, from stay-at-home parents seeking supplementary income to aspiring digital nomads craving autonomy.
The realm of remote employment brims with possibilities, offering a pathway to professional fulfillment. May this curated list serve as a springboard for embarking on your remote career journey.
