From Zero to $25K/mo: How to Create a Passive Income Stream with Niche Sites | w/Kristin Hanes The Art of Online Business

    • Marketing

What do you think about passive income? 


Have you always thought that it wasn’t possible or it is something that other people can do but not you? Or have you ever wanted to create a side project that can generate revenue for your business passively? If so, this episode is for you.


In this episode of Art of Online Business, I sat down with one of my Accelerator coaching members, Kristin Hanes, to talk about how she generates multiple five-figures in passive income from her niche website every month without selling anything. 


Kristin Hanes is a former radio news journalist and now publisher at the Wayward Home, where she teaches people how to live an alternative lifestyle in a campervan, RV, sailboat or tiny home. Kristin built her niche site from the ground up knowing nothing about online business, and five years later, averages 400,000 monthly pageviews, reaches 2.5 million people per year and brings in six figures of revenue. Kristin splits her time between a Sprinter van in the U.S. and a sailboat in Mexico. Her first foray into tiny living was in a Toyota Prius, in which she lived for four months with her partner, Tom.


Kristin creates truly passive income every single month while being a digital nomad and now she’s showing others how to do what she does. She really is proof that creating a niche site is a great way to generate income while working as much or as little as you want. 


In this episode, you’ll learn:
How Kristin got started with bloggingThe importance of SEO when growing a websiteThe type of traffic she is getting right nowThe revenue that she brings in from her websiteWhat Kristin’s work schedule looks like Why she decided to create a course and what she teachesTips for finding writers and good VAsThe strengths and weaknesses of using AIHow Kristin approaches marketing for her course without ads
