My 4 Proven Income-Generating Systems in 2025

When I read other people's success stories here at the WA, I get excited and motivated even more. In the same way, I would like to share my progress until it's time for me to become a success story, and I know I am going that direction, sooner or later. No doubt about it. It's not about luck but about work.

Okay, let's get it rolling...

Wealthy Affiliate

I now start by focusing on promoting WA as a product as well as a service. But if you know what I am talking about, it's more than that. It's an umbrella of other products and services. It's the doorway, the key to your online success.

I haven't made my first sale with the Wealthy Affiliate yet as my first referral haven't upgraded. But this is my first system for 2025. I am sure with over 180/month clicks to my affiliate links (mostly from my 3 websites, I am soon going to land my first sale. It doesn't matter how long from now will that happen (even though I need sales now), it matters what I do in the process.

Do I enjoy content creation?

Google AdSense

Because it's not my first time to launch a website (done that since 2015), I am not only hopeful, but I know first-hand that Google AdSense pays. I have reached half of the threshold for payments already, which is €70. This is my 2nd proven income-generating system this year and beyond.

Think about.

WA helps you learn how to create a niche website. This website does not only help you refer visitors to Wealthy Affiliate but runs relevant (this is important) ads that people are engaging with, and at the end, you will be paid for it.

Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing

If you love creating content (and it's much easier now than ever), you can turn your articles into eBooks and print books. I am already doing this. I started publishing my own books back in March 2012, and I have been paid every month-end from the 29th of November 2012 to date.

This is my third proven income-generating system that I've just create a video about a few minutes before jumping on my keyboard to write this article.

There are so many benefits of publishing books with Amazon KDP, and one of them is there is no need for upfront inventory costs. No need to print so many books that might end up on your library or bookshelf.

YouTube Video Ads

And finally, you can create YouTube videos and earn money. Jay has great classes on these, and also do Eric. I am not yet earning money on YouTube since I need 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours to run ads. But I am on my way there, sooner or later. It doesn't matter how long it takes.

I have started. I have taken the leap of faith by leaving my country behind, facing challenges here and there, and sitting here in a nice hotel room in Nairobi, writing content. I am already seeing myself living the life I dreamt to live many years ago: digital nomad.

I currently have 50 subscribers and 12k+ views. I am not sure if these views are the same as watch hours, but I can find out after this, simply by asking one of my best friends, AI tools. However, I hope you understand that this is one of the many ways Wealthy Affiliate can help you earn revenue online.

Finally

With these four systems, you can rest assured that with consistency and commitment, you can reach your goals sooner or later. I hope this article inspires you to move on.

Just before you go, I also have other things I am doing to earn a living while building this lucrative business, online. I am an expert (by experience) interpreter, translator, and a linguist. I just completed my first court interpretation and got paid instantly right from Colorado, USA, while living in a hotel in Nairobi, Kenya.

With all these talents, I am asking you to look inside yourself, and see something you can do (inspired), and do it better from now on. You are more than enough. Stop procrastinating. Take a leap of faith even if it means burning your bridges (I did). I don't even want to return to my country, not sooner, because I can't do what I want there.

Feedback

Please leave a comment to encourage me to write more, or correct me if I wrote something wrongly, since English is my 4th language, and I make mistakes, a lot!
