His 99% Passive Side Projects Earn $700/Month

A recent post on Reddit from Muhammad Kashif Shabbir in 🇵🇰 Pakistan…

• I made a tool in 2 hours. It made me $1000 so far and counting.

The tool in question is Bulk Image Compressor, a free image compressor with a simple $10 upgrade for unlimited use.

Seems most people find the tool via search engines 👀 but Muhammad didn’t do much in terms of SEO…

I use ahrefs free version….

I didn’t really do any backlink building except a PH launch. It idled for ~9 months and made no money until I changed my targeting to “bulk image compressor” instead of “image compressor”

📝 In another post he shares his experience building side projects…

I didn’t have much success yet but I make ~700 a month with 95% profit ratio and 99% passive.

How he chooses what to build…

Build something that solves your own problem… This will keep you from building products that no one wants to use. If not your own, build to solve a friend’s problem.

If you have a problem, many people may have the same problem…

If you can’t find anything, be more observant and/or be more interesting/interested…

When you solve your own problem, if the product doesn’t work, (i.e. you couldn’t market it)… You will learn building, you will learn shipping. Your muscles will train.

Next time, you will be able to ship faster and better.

⚡️ Speed is key…

Pick ideas that you can ship in 2 days max. This will filter all the ideas that you can’t ship in a week. Yes, when you think it will take 2 days, it will likely take a week or so…

More shipped products === more luck.

Agreed. The more you try, the more chances you have to hit the target 🎯

Last words from Muhammad…

If something solves someone’s problem, there’s a 100% chance somebody is willing to pay for it. Do not self reject. Market is the only test.
