There's one thing you need to be super clear on. It's definitely not easy to do.
 Some people may tell you there's a blueprint you can use to get rich, all by doing nothing
 No way, it takes a lot of freaking hard work, you gotta put hours and hours of work.
 You have to work hard now to build assets that will continue to work for you later.

 Here the top 3 ways :

1- affiliate marketing

One great way to generate a passive income is through affiliate marketing.
 Affiliate marketing from programs like amazon, ClickBank, commission Junction
 ALL allow you to sell their products or their services and you will get pretty good commissions for it.

 Or even better you can build your email list,

 Especially if you're looking to make some serious money and do it on autopilot. But, list-building takes time. It doesn't happen overnight. And you need to add value to your list or you become obsolete.

 You need to build a list in a particular niche and add value,
 tell them stories. Create a bond and build a relationship with them. It's important. Then, when you've created a bit of culture, start promoting affiliate products and services and make sure to test whatever it is that you're selling

 And if you're wondering whether you need a blog or a website to build a list, you don't. You can use sites like Medium or Quora or LinkedIn and place a call-to-action to join your list. It's as simple as that. Build up quality content and invite them to join your list. Then, start marketing to them.

2- Write an ebook.

Ebooks are one of the best sources of passive income. Now, you can do this the simple way and just publish it on amazon's KDP ( Kindle Publishing ) or you can go all out and build yourself a book funnel. Book funnels are so powerful, but they won't be fully passive. For example, if you do a free-plus-shipping offer for your ebook (converting it into a physical book), you'll need to create some one-time offers.

 But, you don't need to go further than that. You can simply write it and publish it and collect the fkn income. Send out a couple emails to your list or post it on social media, and there you have it. Passive income. 


 3- Start a Blog


the way to do that is by providing value to your readers which drives traffic to your site and then monetizing it with affiliate links. Remember, the more niche your website and topics are the better, and I highly recommend WIX .
Wix is among the best website builders around, and the Wix blog can easily set up in just a few minutes.
You can provide value by writing updated information. You can make affiliate marketing income by linking to Amazon to all the products you write about on the site.

 Part of providing value is building trust.
 Make sure to promote only the best products that you personally use and that are relevant to the needs of your audience

 The other part of making an audience is consistency.
