Is Passive Journal Worth It ?
In the world of digital marketing, tons of platforms claim they can help you build passive income. One name that’s been gaining attention lately is Passive Journal. But does it really live up to the hype? Here’s a quick and honest review to help you decide if it’s worth your time and money.
What is Passive Journal?
Really! You don’t know what it is. Khalid Farhan, a well-known influencer (surely a legend) in digital marketing, founded the online platform known as Passive Journal. For those who want to create long-term sources of passive revenue through blogging, affiliate marketing, SEO, and other digital approaches, this platform provides structured guidance and instruction. Its main objective is to give consumers useful (right) information and resources to help them succeed in the competitive world of DIGITAL MARKETING.
What Is Unique About Passive Journal?
Passive Journal stands out among all online platforms (the number is really huge) because of its personalized approach to creating long-term passive income. Here are some things that make Passive Journal exceptional:
1. Learning From The Best Expert
Khalid Farhan (My Inspiration), the founder of Passive Journal, is a well-known figure in digital marketing with a proven track record. He is probably the first person in Bangladesh who built a website from scratch, was affiliated with Amazon on the website, raised monthly income from 0 to $500 in the most effective way, and lastly sold at 15k dollars LIVE ( I repeat, live) in front of the students of Passive Journal in 2017 (which is surely a mind-blowing record till now). He also made 50k TK in 7 days in BD just from a business idea live based on Facebook ads. He created Furrighor (basically a hotel for pet animals) in Mirpur, Dhaka, which brought him to the front pages of famous newspapers such as Prothom Alo and The Daily Star. The platform offers practical, real-world strategies that Khalid himself has used to build successful online ventures. His content is fitted for individuals who want actual results.
2. Focus On Passive Income
Most online platforms emphasize active work like Freelancing, but Passive Journal is unique in its focus on building passive income sources. It teaches users how to create systems (for example, niche websites and affiliate marketing campaigns) that produce income even when they aren’t actively working.
3. Support Community
Passive Journal provides access to a large Discord community of learners and professionals. It is a home where a person can get people from the same field. Their Discord support is highly active; also, most instructors have weekly calls to solve member problems. Instead of quick fixes or trendy tactics, Passive Journal puts emphasis on sustainable procedures that build businesses meant to last. Whether it’s niche selection or site development or SEO, the focus is on plans that continue to work over time.
4. Bangladesh-Centric with Global Vision
Passive Journal provides content that is easy and useful for Bangladeshi entrepreneurs. It understands local problems, teaches great business ideas, and helps businesses grow and compete.

Maybe they are not the best for now, but it’s enough to get a good start.
6. Lifetime access
Although Passive Journal is for everyone ready to do hard work, it only targets people whose mother tongue is Bangla or who know this language. They offer lifetime access, and the great news is that each year, members will get an extra course on a very demanding skill for free. Also, they update their courses frequently due to rapidly changing Digital marketing trends.

Khalid Farhan said, “Passive Journal is like Netflix but for the courses that have everything you need to succeed in digital marketing.

How I Started My Journey
Beginners note: In Bangladesh, most IT institutes offer various courses around 20k to 50k TK per skill. They often charge more in offline branches, selling courses from nearly 50k TK. When I was in your phase (selecting the best platform that meets my needs), I became depressed but didn’t lose hope. Maybe you’re also suffering from the same time.
My journey to Passive Journal: Let’s start from the very beginning (Sorry this might be a boring part). When I was in class 9, I was so obsessed with online technology. So I started to know and get known with digital marketing. Started seeing videos on this just out of curiosity. In class 10, I started to follow Khalid Farhan. That time I found all his old courses on affiliate marketing and meta marketing, which were old and less effective. Still watched all the videos till 3 am every day. This routine went on till my SSC result day Finally, I got Golden A+ (GPA=5.00) and my parents granted my request to enroll in the Passive journal. It took 10K (on a Special occasion) and barely 2 min to enroll.
Was it truly worth it for me?
From the beginning till now, after learning from Passive Journal, I would say YES.
Look dear, I got every resource, learning, everything from them. Khalid bhaiyas amazing explanation made every topic easy; his Project 2024, was a blessing for me. I learned to build websites and build the website that you are currently watching and reading my blog. If you want to build your career in digital marketing, you must know the best skill that suits you. The skill that can elevate you to the top of the industry. If you are buying so many skill courses to find the best for you, doesn’t this sound irrational? The total amount can make a hole in your pocket (just kidding). In Passive Journal, you will find all these courses together, plus additional courses every year (without paying), depending on the skill demand. All together at around 20K (May varies). On sales like Black Friday, you will get 50% off. Doesn’t this sound better than before?
Some negative sides
Passive Journal isn’t a passive experience. Each course comes with actionable tasks—just watching won’t get you results. You need to apply what you learn if you want to succeed.
The Real Talk:
No refunds – make sure you’re committed before signing up.
One device at a time – a bit restrictive, but manageable.
Bundle deal only – no pick-and-choose, but you get everything in one package.
Higher upfront cost – but with sales and discount codes, it’s more affordable.
“Passive Journal is like Netflix for digital marketing—plenty of content, but your success depends on your hustle.” – Khalid Farhan
MY TIP
- Don’t buy course if you’re underage.
- Wait for sales like Black Friday, Independence Day, etc. For coupons, you can follow Khalid Farhan Academy Page.
- Ensure it covers skills you want to learn!
- Don’t ever try to log in to your account on another device. This can ban your account. (After buying passive journal)
- At first, try their free course to know whether you’re comfortable with this or not.
- Be aware of spammers.
I tried my best to make this blog useful for you and spent so many days on this. Please forgive me if I made any mistake.
