Do you have a side hustle? A 'Side Hustle'\u009d is a venture created in addition to an individual\u2019s primary income source, created with the intent to gain money, credibility, community, or even a career.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe your 'day job'\u009d wasn\u2019t fulfilling your creative needs. Maybe you needed supplemental income to support your hobbies.  Maybe you wanted to jump on the blog wave to share your ideas, make money, or simply get your creative juices flowing. Or maybe you wanted to create a community of like-minded individuals to support something you\u2019re passionate about.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever reason led you to create a 'side hustle,'\u009d we know the hustle and grind can be tough. And there\u2019s truth in the name – the hustle often means late nights, early morning '\u02dcjam sessions,\u2019 and to-do lists before you ever get to your day job. It\u2019s dreaming up your perfect life, and then hustling to make it happen.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At HostGator, we love the side hustlers because our company was founded the same way – in a college dorm room where a single college student had big ideas to make money. His big ideas sky rocketed into an international company with millions of websites launched to date.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who knows if your side hustle will turn into something like HostGator one day, but the first step to building your dream starts with the hustle. We want to hear your story, and how you\u2019ve used a HostGator website to support your side hustle goals!
