Discover the Hottest Side Hustles and Remote Gigs Earning Up to $60/Hour
Among the most talked-about ways to make money lately, listeners are seeing both traditional side hustles and newer online gigs getting real traction. Remote work is especially hot, with jobs like search engine evaluator, social media manager, technical support, test prep instructor, and transcriptionist not only being widely available but also offering attractive pay rates, often between $19 and $29 an hour according to FlexJobs. In the world of side hustles, Coursera highlights affiliate marketing—where you promote products and earn commissions—as one of the most lucrative options right now, averaging around $35 an hour for those who hustle and know how to pick trending products.
There’s a recurring trend around freelance gigs and quick gigs that allow people to get paid daily or weekly. GoBankingRates recently pointed out that digital freelancing, food delivery, and yard work can put cash in your account right away, no degree required. With summer in full swing, babysitting and dog walking are still reliable cash generators, and platforms like Care.com make it easy to match with clients quickly, as shared by FinanceBuzz.
For those interested in building a business or more passive income, selling or reselling online is taking off again. Dropshipping, flipping thrift or overstock items, and creating niche stores—particularly if you can tie into viral trends—can still pay off. The YouTube creator AJ Baron is seeing viral traction lately by showing teens and young adults how to make $500 to $5000 a month flipping on Facebook Marketplace, shooting product videos for TikTok Shop, or taking real estate photography gigs.
People with skills in content creation, video production, or graphic design can also cash in right now. According to Dynamite Jobs, companies are hiring remote video editors, web developers, and sales reps—many with starting pay well above $20 an hour. If you like writing, being a remote writer or proofreader is not only one of the most flexible gigs but pays upwards of $25 an hour. Meanwhile, sites like Rat Race Rebellion keep surfacing unique gigs, such as remote appliance technician roles or inside sales that pay impressive hourly rates, sometimes $30 to $60 an hour for commission-driven performers.
Surveys and focus groups have made a comeback, with new platforms offering higher payouts than before—you can’t retire on them, but listeners are making a few hundred extra per month by simply sharing their opinions or testing products. For those with an entrepreneurial spirit, teaching fitness classes, coaching online, or even getting paid to tutor AI systems with xAI are unconventional but real options. Companies like Amazon and AdaptHealth are scaling up work-from-home customer service jobs, some specifically tied to health care and revenue cycle management, supporting both flexibility and stable income.
The stories getting buzz right now are about everyday people leveraging a mix of technology, niche skills, and personal branding. Whether you start a business reselling, edit viral videos for online brands, teach fitness or academic skills virtually, or pick up high paying freelancing gigs, the key is acting fast on trending opportunities, building a portfolio, and steadily scaling your own operation.
