There are no ways of making money online in South Africa and worldwide without having to pay anything.
A lot of people are still finding it hard to believe that someone can make a living out of social media.
I do not blame anyone for not believing that you can make money online because of an increase in the number of scams on social media.
The truth is that there are companies and online channels that are still legit to make money online. I will list a few down here that you use to make money.
This is how you can make money online:
Start YouTube channel:
Starting a YouTube channel is for people who want to entertain people, teach people something about anything that they know and make a living out of what they have.
I have heard a lot of people saying I have learnt baking on YouTube. So, if you have a skill in anything, you can start teaching people and generating income. The most liked content that you can focus on is how to make something.
It is totally free to start a YouTube channel however, you need data to edit and post videos. If you are staying in town you need to check for a place where you can have access to free WiFi and start using YouTube.
Facebook market place
You can start selling your unused staff on the Facebook marketplace free of charge. You simply advertise the product and when someone wants to buy it, you will have to charge them for delivery as well so that you cannot take money out of your profit and pay for delivery.
Monetize your Facebook page.
If you have a Facebook page with 10 000 followers you can make money online. It is not easy to make a Facebook page and grow it, however, you can make money for free.
