One my favorite themes is multiple income streams… One way to add incomes streams without increasing your workload is to combine a hobby with a way of making money (like a website)… In the post I would like to highlight several websites that are doing just that…
-
Boating & Fishing: SF Boater
— A boating and fishing enthusiast site with extensive marina, lake, and river information with a goal of eventually covering the entire West Coast. Also has pictures of big fish which is always a favorite of mine. In addition, SFBoater readers can win $50 Amazon gift cards by entering and winning the monthly Trophy Catch Jackpot where readers are paid for fish stories.

Do it Yourself: Handyman Fix Home Repair
— A DIY enthusiast site with growing number of DIY tips and tricks. One of my favorite tips is to use stailness steel contact paper to cover kitchen appliances.
-
Golfing: Golf Course Ladder
— A golfing enthusiast site with extensive golf course reviews, golf book reviews, and general golf tips.
These are but 3 examples in what is surely a very long this of hobbies for which this same technique could be applied. My only advise… Make sure you have a passion for your chosen hobby blog. Writing regular posts becomes very tedious if you do not LOVE the subject matter.
It is a good thing I like making money…
Combining a hobby with a website is by no means the only way to turn a hobby into an income stream…
Ask the readers… What hobbies would like to build into an income stream? How would you create that income stream?
