For a steady income perhaps the best way is to open your own business. Depending on your skills, it may bring you good results.
and if you want to do online business , I suggest you to choose blogign. only bloging is a way where you can make steady income with your work.
you can monetize your blog with ads(use google adsense). it takes some time. some time it takes 3 to 6 month to build a proper income. but when it start it give you life time profit.
and the work is also not so much hard. in starting you need to work constantly by building blog. getting traffic. implementing SEO. but when you start getting trafic and when you get ads. then you can only write an article a week to keep that active.
