I'm self-employed and I run a website for a living. The website is about the area where I live, but I could run it from anywhere. I'm gone about a quarter of the year. I don't offer services, so I am not bound to a place or time zone. I do have online meetings once in a while, but they can be moved around. I still keep social hours, although I'm not a stickler about it. If it's sunny outside and it's about to rain all week, I can work later.

  It was mostly luck. My niche is too small to get overcrowded, and naturally yields to high-commission purchases like insurance. I didn't know that when I started. In any case, I live by the age-old advice "content is king". You wouldn't believe how much work I put into researching, writing and maintaining each guide. I didn't achieve local brand recognition by pumping out SEO-optimised garbage. You can't speedrun this.
