Earn Through Redbubble.com (2023)

Hey everybody. I decided to set myself a challenge for something that I know a lot of you have wanted me to do. Could I find websites online where you can make money for free? That's right. I want to find entirely free websites where you can make money without having to spend any money to make it. No hidden subscription services, no hidden fees, nothing like that.

Now disclaimer, these website, they are not going to make you a millionaire overnight.

But as you'll see, through taking action, people have built up money streams on these websites, including passive income, that now earns them a full-time income which I think is pretty cool. So I'm hoping that this blog is going to motivate you and smash some of those mental roadblocks that you may have been having, where you think things like, oh, you need money to make money, or you need to live in America, or you need a credit card. Because you know what, those myths, the are not true. What you actually need is to take action.

Redbubble.com

So what is Redbubble and how does it make money? Well, it is a website that allows you to make money by creating and selling custom products online. So it lets you create things like T-shirts, phone cases, that sort of thing. But how do you make them? Well, it's simple. Once you create an account, which is absolutely free, and you only need to enter your name and email address. You can start uploading artwork and designs to products literally in less than a minute.

No credit card

No credit card required. You can choose which products you want to list and sell with your art work online ,and you can customize your products, choose what color they would come in, what style, and then your own custom product description and title. Then when a customer purchases one of them, such as this T-shirt, Redbubble's production warehouse will print your design onto a T-shirt, package that T-shirt up, and then ship it out to the customer automatically, without you having to do anything. In this industry, we have a name for the service. It's called print-on-demand. And once you've created and uploaded your designs onto the products, it's an extremely passive source of income. With Redbubble, they pay you a commission on each product sold with the standard commission rate being 20%. Because they pay you out as a commission, you never have to pay any fees, and so selling is free.

Don't I have to pay to advertise

Now I can imagine for some of you out there, there are two big objects that you might be having right now. Object one. Okay, but is it actually free? Sure, I can create a T-shirt to sell, but what about traffic? Don't I have to pay to advertise my T-shirt? The answer is nope. You know how people come to eBay and they search for products that they want to buy here. eBay has invested lots of money into advertising to say the least. And so now it's so well-known that it's what you would call a destination website. People come here and buy products each day, and so most eBay sellers make their money just by people searching their products.

Well, Redbubble is the same. It's a destination website. People come here looking for products that they want to buy. And so most Redbubble sellers make money through free traffic that they get to their listing via the search bar. Now onto objection number two. Okay, that's great, you know, but what if I'm not a graphic artist, you know? Look, that's a cell picture on that phone case there, but I can't draw that. And you know what, neither could I.I couldn't draw these sweaters and I couldn't draw that cool T-shirt, but here's the thing. To make money on Redbubble, you don't need to be an artist, and I'll prove it to you right now. So we're gonna head on over to one of Redbubble's most popular products, T-shirts, and we're gonna look for funny T-shirts by typing funny into the search bar. And I think a lot of people are going to be very surprised, because check this out.

There are some of the top-selling designs right now on Redbubble for funny T-shirts, and a bunch of them are incredible text-based designs. Now, let me ask you a question. Does this T-shirt here look difficult to make? Because I'll tell you now, it's incredibly easy. I have very little graphic design skills. I normally have to hire people to make designs for me, but even I was able to replicate this design and make one that looks extremely similar using the free app Canva with open source commercial licensed fonts. And it took me less than five minutes, because it's literally just text. Anyone could've made this T-shirt, uploaded it and sold it, and that's the secret. If you have no graphic design skills and you wanna make money, focus on selling humorous T-shirts, because often times simple text-based designs add to the humor and make it funnier that if it had had a more complicated design. All right, so you sold your funny T-shirts.

How do I get paid

How do I get paid, ? Well, Redbubble have two payment options. First of all, they can pay out directly to PayPal or they can payout directly to a bank. Now, unfortunately, bank deposits are only available in limited countries, however, there is a workaround, and that is Payoneer. With Payoneer, you can set up your USA bank account to receive money in all online for free. Now most people don't think that you can set up a Redbubble account to Payoneer because Redbubble requires your bank's physical address which Payoneer doesn't tell you in your account info, but they will send it to you if you contact an ask their support. By doing this, people have connected their Payoneer bank accounts to Redbubble, and they have accepted payment into it.

Now I can imagine you're all thinking, this all sounds good and all, "but does this simple T-shirt actually" well, you know, make money on Redbubble? "The answer is it sure does. You see how this T-shirt is sitting herein the search results. Well, Redbubble is similar to Etsy's search engine. If I type in funny T-shirts into Etsy's search engine, I'll get lots of results too. In fact, there are thousands of funny T-shirts on Etsy, literally. So how do they choose which T-shirts they're gonna list on the first page? The number one way that the search engine decides that is with sales. If a T-shirt is selling, it would sit higher in the search results. We know then that all of these T-shirts on the first page must've sold recently.

The same is with Redbubble, we know that all of the T-shirts that are here on the first page have sold recently. So, yes, simple text-based designs, when funny, can sell great. "But you say, "how can I get those initial sales" so that my T-shirts will start ranking for "bigger words like funny when I'm just getting started? "Well, there is a secret hack which I am going to show you. Rather than go for a broader humorous T-shirt, if you're stuck for ideas, create a niche-specific design and look for niches and groups of people that have been ignored.

So, for example, T-shirt is pretty specific, right? It's about engineers. This is a good idea, because engineers are passionate about their jobs and they love wearing career-specific merch. There's just one problem with this niche if we do a search in Redbubble for funny engineer T-shirts, you know what, we'll see that there are lots of T-shirts already that we would have to compete with the sales. And so, that's what you should do. Come and see if you can find groups of people who don't already have any T-shirts made for them. So, if we check out another passionate career, science teachers, we'll see that, yep, they have lots of T-shirts made for them jokes about being specifically a science teacher. But what about another type of teacher? What about a drama teacher.

If we come and do a search for that, we'll find something interesting. While there are T-shirts aimed at people interested in drama and theater and general teacher T-shirts. There are very, very aimed specifically at drama teachers. This niche is completely wide open for someone to create a great funny T-shirt aimed at them and to take all the sales and traffic as a gift for drama teachers. Because again, if you come to the search bar, and this time typing gifts for drama teachers, you'll see, again, we'll get gifts aimed at theater lovers and gifts aimed at teachers in general, but very, very few aimed at drama teachers as this group has just been completely ignored on Redbubble .It's wide open for you or anyone to come in and make great products for. All right, onto the next website, and I think that a lot of people are probably going to recognize it, because it's featured on YouTube a lot, but you probably never realized that it could be making you money, and that it's actually making some people over $100,000 a year, largely in passive income.
