You can work from home too if you pick an avenue that works well for your lifestyle. The cool thing is, you don’t even have to be THAT great with computers in order to make a decent living.

How Mom’s (Like Me) Find Stay At Home Mom Jobs
Start A Blog
One of the best ways to make money as a stay at home mom is to start a blog. (Like mine!)
There are many ways to make money through blogging. Blogging a BEAST of a project to take on, but if you can push through the initial difficulties of getting started, you can make a decent income. Blogs make money through Ads, Affiliate Marketing, Sponsored Posts, Products and Services.
You don’t have to pick one method over another right away, you can do affiliate marketing, as well as ads and services if you want to. If you want to start a blog, I highly recommend my friend Carly’s Free Ecourse course if you’re super new to the world of blogging and really want to make this work. This is what made my blog so successful from day 1.
You can also learn affiliate marketing within Email and Blog posts.
Or learn how to market your blog with Pinterest– This is THE BEST METHOD EVER!! Pinterest brings me 100, 000 visitors every month!
