We have already covered website testing in a previous article. But, if you don’t want to use a laptop, you can become an app tester instead. All you need to do to begin is register with an app testing platform. You will then be required to install different apps, browse them, and give suggestions on various metrics. You should have the skill of writing concise and precise reviews. There are a lot of developers and organizations that hire app testers to streamline their software. Some of them are listed here:

You don’t need to be a celebrity with thousands and millions of followers to become an influencer. Increasingly, more and more brands are reaching out to micro or nano influencers who garner the complete trust of their followers. This is your step by step guide to become a micro/nano influencer.

There are a lot of people in the non-English speaking world who want to enhance their English proficiency.

Besides using dedicated apps like Nice Talk, you can even advertise locally and teach a language to people via Zoom/Skype/Hangouts on weekends and charge on an hourly basis.
