Many people go from week to week, turning in 40-50 hours each week. They offer a significant part of their lives for a not so significant gain in terms of impacting the family budget. If this cycle goes unchanged things will never really get any better.

So what is the answer… working while you sleep?  Actually, yes it is.  

If you are motivated to break the cycle, and develop a business that will generate income while you are on tanning on the beach, or camping in the mountains, or in the wee small hours of the morning as you sleep, this post is for you.

The following ideas are all website based, and are successful and proven ways to generate a passive income that will work for you long after you make the initial effort. 

Google Adsense: Contextual Based Advertising

If you have something that is worth saying, say it on you own personal website. Once you have drafted a collection of articles, you will need to set up a Google Adsense account.  It’s easy.  Just follow the steps and then submit your application.  When you are approved you will follow the prompts to set up your ads, and generate code for your site. Copy and paste this code on to your site and wait.  It will only be pennies and nickels at first, but be patient.  Their are many websites out their that count on this program to support them.

Write for Someone Else

There are several websites that you can make money with by just writing article and post them to their site. Write an article about anything, and submit it. If they are great articles they will generate traffic, and in turn generate money for both you and the host site.  If you don’t mind sharing this may be the way to go.

2) eHow.com

Make Educational Videos

Perhaps you’ve  always wanted to be a movie star, but just haven’t made it big yet. Maybe starting with the small, staring in educational videos might be for you.

ExpertVillage.com currently hosts over 120,000 videos, may be interested in paying you for the videos you make for them.  Just contact them for more information, and then fire up the web cam.

 

Affiliate Programs

You can also sign up with an affiliate program.  Check out Commission Junction.  They’ll give you the code that you will place on your website.  When a customer visits an affiliated website and makes a purchase, you will make a percentage of the sale.  You will need to check the arrangements of particular vendors to find out the specifics.

Music vendors include:
