In this blog post, I'll show you the top six digital products that you can create using AI. One of the biggest benefits is that you can create the product once and get paid for it multiple times. What if I told you that AI could help you create these products quickly and easily? Yes, that's right. I'll also show you how much money and sales you can expect to make from each product, as well as how to create them step-by-step.

1. Clip Arts

Clip arts are simple yet effective digital products that you can create and sell. People use clip arts for their presentations, website designs, social media posts, and more. These images add visual appeal to projects. You can create various clip art images such as icons, cartoons, and more, and sell them online to earn a good income.

A popular platform where you can buy and sell digital products is Etsy. Go to Etsy's website and search for "clip art." You’ll find many different clip arts being sold by various sellers.

If you click on a seller’s name, you can see the total number of sales they have made along with the clip art images they are selling. To find out the revenue generated from these clip art images, use a tool called Product Flint. Product Flint allows you to analyze shops on Etsy. By analyzing a shop on Etsy, you may find that a seller has generated $32,000 in one year selling clip arts, which comes down to $2,666 per month.
