Well get on only a few freelancing platforms and focus on only them. Make sure the portfolio you have is better than 95% of your competition (I spent around a year making my portfolio when I started). Portfolio will differentiate you from other people selling the same service, low pricing won't.
Before you want to make long term income online, you need to ask yourself, what skills do you have that will allow you to provide valuable service or products to others?
yes adsense is too difficult nowadays.
With minimal effort, you will make minimal money or no money. It takes effort t build a passive source of income.
