In Turkey, the digital infrastructure and internet access are growing stronger which makes various earning opportunities available. Among the most popular ways to make money is to perform freelance work in the fields of graphic design, writing, translation, and software development, with the Turkish-speaking professionals being in great demand, especially through local and international platforms. Also, a person can earn a living by creating video or short-form content on online platforms, where the main sources of income are the advertisement of the content and sponsors, especially if the content is in line with local culture and trends. The promotion of domestic or specific local products on regional markets is equally effective, especially as a result of the remarkable visuals and the clear identity of the product that are appealing to both local and global consumers. Online tutoring of Turkish or any other skills mainly to interested individuals from abroad has significant potential while the learners' target is with the language or culture of the concerned locality. Investing in cryptocurrency or forex is also a profitable if possibly, risky endeavor, however, the understanding of the market is a must. The practice of dropshipping is gaining popularity due to the fact that it allows the direct export of products to end consumers in all the countries, the only requirement being that of the lightweight, trending and easy-to-ship products. On the other hand, creating mobile apps or designing simple digital tools that occupy certain areas in Turkey such as local event apps or budgeting tools, definitely, can be a good source of passive income. Whatever the case, success boils down to steadfastness, local market know-how, and the capability to adjust to global digital trends, keeping in mind, of course, the restrictions which may be of a financial and legal nature in Turkey.
