Stable income: Somewhat stable

I’d rate it a 3 out of 5 because while there is potential for consistent income, it often depends on the niche, demand, and individual skill in writing and marketing. It's not as unpredictable as some side hustles, but it lacks the stability of a regular paycheck. It's not a 2 because there is a decent baseline of work available, but not a 4 because it can be unreliable at times, especially if market conditions change or if the writer doesn't have a steady stream of clients.
