Things You'll Need:

• Computer

1. Consider different ways to make passive income online. Research all the methods and websites to make residual income online. Find out how they are working for other people and explore the best fit for you. Get started by choosing one or two passive income opportunities to try out.

2. Get passive income online by writing. Whether you're a great or decent writer, you can find a solid residual income opportunity through some online content websites.
   
   Websites like eHow and Suite 101 offer compensation programs that let you sign up for free, write articles, and post them online to earn residual income online. There are many residual writing websites, and all of them have different criteria and rules for writers and payment.

3. Create a website or blog to earn passive income online. Another way to make residual income online is by creating your own niche website or blog. Even if you're not a tech expert, it's pretty easy to set up a free site with Google Sites or Blogger.
   
   Passive income opportunities with a website or blog include affiliate program links, Google Adsense advertising, and sales of your own product like an e-book or electronic guide. Many website owners monetize their sites through a combination of these methods.

4. Make your own product to earn passive income online. Just like book authors continuously earn royalties on book sales, you can also make residual income online by developing your own product.
   
   For instance, you can promote your expertise by writing and self-publishing your own book to sell on Amazon. You could also write (or hire a ghostwriter) to create an e-book to sell on your own website. If you're a programmer or designer, your best passive income opportunity could be developing templates for websites or blogs.

5. Look for multiple passive income opportunities. Focus your time and efforts on one way of earning passive income online at a time.
   
   Once you start getting results from one project or website, start looking for another way to make residual income online. By diversifying your efforts, you're giving yourself more security, as you won't have to rely on any one specific income stream too heavily.
