how can I get money?
Im just finishing uni so I dont have a decent portfolio of real projects. I tried using webs like fiverr and designcrowd but those places are full of indians selling shitty designs that looks like stock trash for nothing. I can work for cheap but I wont be designing for free.
how can I start making some shekels?

not /gd/ but here's 3 easy ways

>How I made $500 a week with minimal effort

1. Pick a niche you actually know something about I focus on digital tools and SaaS products because I genuinely use them and understand which ones are good. Find something you can talk about naturally.
2. Find good affiliate programs on sites like Clickbank etc. Some pay 20-30% per sale commission which is where the real money is.
3. Look for recommendation threads on twitter, reddit, discord fb etc. People are asking "What's the best tool for X?" or "Alternative to Y?" New threads are gold mines. I just search for these daily. (Use keyword notifications tools)
4. Leave HELPFUL comments This is key - don't just drop links. I write thoughtful responses that actually help solve their problem, mention my experience with the product, then casually include my link. The more helpful you are, the more upvotes you get, which means more visibility.

>Selling AI-generated websites to small local businesses that don’t have one (or haven’t updated theirs in a while), Each took 2 hours and I charge them $299 and $50–$60/month for hosting & "support". Hosting costs for you $6/month, time to build each site 1–2 hours, Ongoing support work is basically zero.

Tools you need:

Loveable.Dev to create the ai websites
Stripe to get paid and google maps or outscrapper to find leads
Astroscrape to get clients

1. Find 20–30 small local businesses (dentists, hair salons, repair shops)
2. DM them: “hey, I build beautiful ai-powered websites for small biz owners — want me to show you a free 1-minute demo of yours?”
3. Use loveable to generate a site mockup (takes 10 min)
4. Send it back with: “want it live? I’ll host + support it for $59/month. No contract, cancel anytime.”
5. You check in maybe once every 6 months

>Waking up dead business social media for $100/mo (I make $2K/mo working a couple hours a day)

Businesses owners are too busy to run their businesses or have a social media presence. Find business with no posts for months, outdated info, zero engagement, with thriving operations in real life.

Offer them to manage their social media accounts for just $100/month, Don't promise the moon - no "10x your followers!" or "leads on autopilot!" - just consistent, professional content that accurately represented their business, better yet if you can call them or meet them in person. I started with three clients:

• A civil engineer
• A page focused on sustainability initiatives
• An IT & software company

I created and published daily content for them, texts and designs, optimized their profiles, and scheduled posts at optimal times. Within a few weeks, all three gained around 100+ new followers:

• The engineering firm connected with two local projects they wouldn't have heard about otherwise
• The sustainability page got invited to speak at an industry panel
• The IT company gained a new networking circle and eventually two clients
• People were actually happy to finally see them online!

The biggest benefit is perception. When people checked them out online, they no longer saw abandoned profiles.

• Most businesses don't need to "go viral" - they just need to look alive
• Industry-specific content performs far better than generic business advice
• A small but engaged audience is worth more than vanity metrics
• The sweet spot for most businesses is 4-5 posts per week, not 20+

Why $100?

• It's affordable enough that businesses don't overthink it
• It allows me to scale and work with multiple clients
• It's just a side hustle

Here's what I do:

1. Create a content calendar based on industry topics
2. Develop 30 days of content in advance
3. Schedule posts for optimal times
4. Monitor engagement and adjust
5. Send monthly reports
