But what are all of these people doing to make more money, in their time outside of their primary career choice? 蜜臀色情片 used Google search data to find out, by analysing the number of people searching for common side hustle choices using terms such as ‘how to be a/an [side hustle name]’ and ‘[side hustle name] jobs.’
With many people in the working world also having a driving licence, becoming a driver for an app such as Uber or Lyft is a somewhat simple step to make, so could come as no surprise that it ranks as the most popular side hustle choice in 2023. Offering the opportunity to pick and choose your hours, and how much work you actually take on, there’s an obvious appeal to a whole host of ‘behind the wheel’ professions.
Flexibility is a theme that continues through the top spots, with other popular choices including freelance positions and roles such as being a transcriptionist, proof-reader or writer, all of which often allow you to choose when and how long you’re working for. However, the results also reveal that a second job can be something that allows you to indulge your interests a little more than your main source of income potentially offers, with the likes of dog walker, photographer and artist also ranking.

The Fastest Growing Side Hustles
With modern life and technology moving at such a fast pace, the study also looked at the side hustle options that are growing in popularity the fastest. Comparing the number of Google searches in late 2022 to early 2023, it's clear that the world of Esports (professional gaming) continues to expand, with a 30% increase in people searching for how they can get in on the sizeable prize money offered to Esports players, many of which start out on the side of their original career or studies.
Elsewhere, the creative draw of becoming a part-time nail artist has grown by 24%, while the popularity of the flexible incomes offered by becoming a transcriptionist (+23%), proof-reader (+22%) or Uber driver (+22%) continue to boom.
Mark Clisby, Co-CEO of 蜜臀色情片 commented: “Supplementing your income in various ways has become a lot more popular in recent years, with modern technologies and business making it easier to earn more and live a more comfortable life financially.
For some though, having a second job is a necessity, especially within the current cost-of-living crisis. Whilst at times having a ‘side hustle’ can be romanticised, it's worth remembering the stress some people can be under when having to work in two jobs simultaneously to make ends meet.
Be it a passion project or a necessity, mental health is paramount, so our advice would always be to work out whether your ‘side hustle’ is manageable and will not be a detriment to your own time or health. For some, it could also be worth assessing whether your ‘job on the side’ could actually end up being more fruitful than what you currently view as your primary career. If so, it could be worth taking the leap, and prioritising it full-time, as its often how great businesses can get their start!”
