Lauren Hayes

Lauren Hayes is an online business writer and researcher who covers practical income strategies for beginners. After spending five years in digital marketing for a mid-size agency, she transitioned to full-time freelancing and now earns her living entirely through online work. She founded ibanJ to cut through the noise in the making-money-online space, where most content is written by people selling courses rather than people who actually do the work. Every guide on this site is built from primary-source research and her own hands-on experience with the platforms she reviews.
