Drop shipping and affiliate marketing
The internet managed to create so many opportunities, and one of them is the ability to sell products that you don’t own.

You are responsible just for advertising the products and taking care of customer support.

Affiliate marketing, on the other hand, means that you only take care of the advertising phase. This is usually done using a website, on social media (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter etc.), PPC (pay per click) and same as above, you are selling other people’s products and get a commission for each product that someone purchases with your affiliate link.
Blogging and banner ads
Building a blog can be a good platform for advertising products. The trick is to focus on a very specific niche, optimize your blog so it will rank high on search engines for a specific set of keywords, and raise a large audience that follows you and reads your materials. Companies are willing to work with these types of websites since they can target an audience that can sum characteristics in common, which is not the same in television.
Also, people can get in advertising using banner ads. Places like the Bannerbit advertising platform offer the ability to invest in banner ads and generate income by doing that.
