Before we get into depth of what you can do to earn passive income for yourself lets define what it actually means. Most people believe passive income is a form of making money with NO WORK involved.

A similar stream of income would be affiliate ads. These are where you place other people ads on your site and anytime a visitor purchases what the ad offers off your site you get a commission. These income streams all depend on huge numbers of visitors you will need to draw to those sites. But once you have done this you will be making money 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Another common method for earning a passive income involves network marketing. The way this works is that you represent a particular product and convince others to purchase directly from the distributor. You would receive a commission for your work which is good but it is not passive income. However, you can recruit others to do this for you and you would receive a percentage of their commissions. This could prove to be an enormously lucrative venture if you recruit a crew of motivated sellers. Best of all, you could recruit people in-person or online. Through online channels, it is possible to recruit people from all over the world which greatly expands you passive income potential.
