• 693: Renting Out Websites? How to Build Recurring Revenue with Simple, Local Sites

  You know I love a good rental side hustle with recurring revenue and strong ROI. But in this example, there's no equipment to buy, no delivery logistics to deal with, and no tenants' trash in your place, which leads to some really strong margins. John Michael from TownRankSEO.com started this journey just this past February. He is a longtime Side Hustle Show listener who recently started building and renting out simple local websites. Websites are digital real estate. And if the location is right — namely, if it shows up at the top of Google — that could be worth quite a bit to the right tenant. Tune in to Episode 693 of the Side Hustle Show to learn: How to research profitable local niches for website rental What it takes to build and rank these sites quickly Creative ways to find business owners who need leads The unexpected SEO consulting opportunities that emerged Want more?

• 692: $2500/mo with Online Directories

  What if you could build a website that earns thousands per month in relatively hands-off income while traditional SEO struggles? That's exactly what Frey Chu has done with his directory-style websites. While article-based content sites have been getting hammered by Google updates, directory content has remained resistant to these changes and continues to generate that elusive semi-passive income online. Frey built his first directory in the thrifting space, and six months later discovered it was getting 1,000 visitors per day. He quickly monetized with ads and made $1,200 that first month without doing much of anything. Today, Frey earns a few thousand dollars monthly from his directory portfolio at ShipYourDirectory.com and teaches others how to replicate his success. Tune into Episode 692 of the Side Hustle Show to learn: How to find profitable directory niches using data-driven research Where and how to collect massive amounts of location data at scale Proven monetization strategies beyond just display ads Marketing tactics that actually work for directory sites Full Show Notes: $2500/mo with Online Directories New to the Show?

• 691: Your Simple 10-Year Path to Financial Flexibility

  Want a roadmap to build time-leveraged cash flow and long-term wealth without the complexity of traditional business ventures? Dustin Heiner is back on the show to share his proven strategy: buy one profitable investment property per year for 10 years. It might sound easier said than done, but Dustin has retired early from the cash flow of his 30+ rental properties and now helps others replicate his success at MasterPassiveIncome.com. Dustin treats real estate as an "income building" business, not speculation. He's built systems that generate consistent monthly cash flow while building equity — and his 16-year-old daughter just bought her first property using these same strategies. (Check out Dustin's free real estate investing starter course and learn more about his proven systems.)
