Best Way to Earn Long Term Residual Income Online

What I'm referring to in the title is short and long term projects. If you haven't been able to make consistent income with whatever you've been trying online, I do recommend that you start a small niche blog based around "money keywords"; keywords which have decent demand with little competition. That's the best overall approach that anyone can use to start making money fairly quickly online. I would strongly advise you to focus solely on your first niche blog until you have it making money. Then, you can start another small niche blog as well as a long term blog, which I'll explain below.

The small niche blogs based on "money keywords" are great for getting rankings, traffic, and commissions fairly quickly. These would be a short term projects. You should aim to set up one of these niche blogs each month, as well as 20 to 30 articles that link to your blog. With the first five to ten pages on your blog, you should aim for keywords that get searched more than 2,000 times a month in the search engines. Then, for the remaining 20-30 pages and article, go for lower competition keywords that get searched less. This way, you'll easily rank for some of the lower competition keywords and start pulling in a decent amount of traffic from the search engines.
In addition to these small niche blogs, it is a good idea to have at least one long term project that you work on during the weekends.
A long term blog or website would be an authority site of some kind. A solid strategy for this, would be to set up an authority site of some kind in each of the three super niches, which are money, health, and relationships. Remember that these are huge niches, and so you shouldn't just simply set up a general fitness site... you could pour hundreds of hours of work into it and not see much progress. You still need to take the "niche within a niche" approach, and find an area where you can add a lot of value that has decent demand.
A lot of people get so many ideas going around in their head that they never actually do any real work on their blogs. Having a system, and a clear daily and weekly plan of how you're going to create content for both your short and long term projects is crucial for getting your work done. I would recommend you dedicate an hour or two each day to creating content for your current short term project, and dedicate a few hours each weekend to your long term projects.
