I have minimal experience with entrepreneurship. The most I've done is create a few youtube videos and written a few articles on a blog, and I got barely any views on them. However, those youtube videos and blog posts were on topics I wasn't passionate about which is why I gave up easily

However, sports is something I would say I have more passion for. I play them in my free time and I usually read at least one sports-related article per day. I've wanted to work for myself instead of as an employee, but I've always struggled with coming up with what to base my business on. I figured since sports is what I'm most passionate about, maybe I should try it.

From what I've gathered, making money from ads on youtube or blogging pays hardly anything. It seems successful entrepreneurs just use youtube/blogging to get traffic, but get most of their money from charging high rates on things like like one-on-one coaching or selling videos about their expertise. From what I've gathered about monetizing sports blogs, the only options for monetizing it seem to be from ads, affiliate marketing, and selling merchandise on my website.

Is it not a good idea to try to make money from this as there's too many other sports blogs I have to compete with? Anyone got other ideas as to how I could monetize this?
