[b]1. WRITING BUSINESS[/b]
From my experience in this business, I can tell you that this is the emerging business for the next generation. And from my projections, by 2020, this sector would have created more millionaires than the showbiz business.
The writing business is futher divided into different categories and all of them a inter-woven and related. If you are industrious, you can combine all of them together or choose just one of them.

[b][color =purple]I. BLOGGING: [/b]This is an overflogged discussion and we all know a lot of people have made it really big in this business. LindaIkeji, Stella Dimokorku, Kemi Filani and a host of others have made it from blogging. And the most profitable aspect of blogging is advert publishing.
You won't spend up to ten thousand naira to set up your personal blog and the following are the niches which are not yet popular, and are demanded;
* Fashion
* Science and Technology
* National geography
* Weird facts
* Photography

II. EBOOK:[/color][/b] This sector is another untapped sector which can create thousands of dollars for users.
[b][color =blue]HOW IT WORKS;[/color][/b]
Instead of starting your own blog, you can compile everything you know about MARRIAGE in a book, then you self publish and sell. Including counselling and testimonies of some married couples. You can write on FASHION or ANIMALS.
I am considering writing something about various historical sites and tourist attractions in the world, when they were founded with pictures. What a way to teach history, you will agree with me.
[b][color =green]III. FREELANCING: [/color][/b]As a freelance writer you can make as low as $5 per day and as much as $100 per day. Sound impossible right? I will explain.
When I joined Fivver, a leading Freelance platform in the world, it was very difficult at first, being a Nigerian and the tag of Nigerians being criminal, then I went to learn and made some modification. Then came my first job.
"I was contracted to write ten(10) comments on ten(10) different posts on a particular blog. And each comment should not be less than 100words. That is 1000 words in total. I was to finish the job in 48hours, but I finished in 24hours. At the end I was paid $5."
For a $100 paying job, you can be asked to edit a novel due for publishing. You can be asked to write a project. So, you just need to research. It doesn't matter if you are not a graduate.
Thank God for the fall in Naira against the dollar. There was a time $100 amounts to #19,000, but as at March, a hundred dollars changes for almost thirty thousand naira.
And that is what you make for every $100 job you complete. Even though $80 is yours and $20 belongs to Fiverr network.
All you need is a computer or a tablet and data plan.
*I personally advice you to try this out.
NOTE: You need to be calm to succeed in this business, you need to be willing to learn to succeed in this business.
I first joined Fiverr in 2014, but I didn't start earning until 2015 when I met the guy who put me through.
Fiverr is not a scam or yahoo yahoo whatever. Some of the jobs you can get is; *Writing, *Logo design, *Banner design *Website design and a host of others. Depending on the jobs you put on your profile.
Even though web design can pay as much as $1000. Yes, you read right.
[color =red]*Another part of Freelancing is getting employment with blogs. An entertainment blog may give you a job to always update the blog daily and they pay you per post. I am not in this business, so I can't tell you what I don't know. [/color]
