Top 7 Home-based Internet Business OpportunitiesJennifer Carter
June 27, 2006
If you are looking for an opportunity to make money online, there are some great and easy to start business opportunities available via the internet.
What a great way to be able to work from home, in a few spare
hours, using nothing but your own computer! If you're a work at home
mom looking to earn extra money, or hoping to quit your job by earning
sufficient income online, there are hundreds of individuals doing
exactly that.
Some of them are genuine opportunities, others are far more likely to be scams that you would do well to avoid.
- Ebay – many people are making money at home using their
computer with Ebay. It’s simple to sell or trade goods and you can sell
just about anything. There are several of excellent ebooks that will
prove a good investment if you are looking to set up your own Ebay
business.
- Affiliate sales – this is another area where
people are making good money. Affiliate sales is where you recommend or
promote a program or product, and get paid a sum or percentage on
sales. If you’re seriously considering becoming an affiliate, I’d
recommend Rosalind Gardner’s Super Affiliate handbook as the first
ebook that you need. It’ll not only save you time and money but get you started and earning money online.
- Online surveys – if you’ve looked for
opportunities to make money online you can’t have missed these. They’re
advertised everywhere you look for an internet business. Although there
are one or two people who are succeeding with these – beware of scams
that take your money or subscription and don’t deliver.
- Data input – again, there are plenty of adverts
for these. They promise to deliver hundreds of dollars for simple data
input. Although you may wish to consider this, remember to ask yourself
the question, “If it was this simple, wouldn’t everybody be doing it”?!
Again, it may work for the few, but find out more and don’t lay out
your hard- earned cash until you are satisfied that this is right for
you. If you do sign up, ensure that it is with a reputable company such
as Clickbank who have a genuine money back policy if you are not
satisfied.
- Home Typing - another well publicised
opportunity. The golden rule really is not to shell out your hard
earned income before you receive anything.
- Ebook - do you have a hobby or a passion that
you’d love to share with others? If so, writing your own ebook is
easier than you might think. Jim Edwards book, How to write and publish your own Ebook in less than 7 days,
is worth the investment if this is something you’d like to consider. It
offers a step by step guide to choosing the subject, researching your
market and then actually writing your ebook.
- Google Adsense - this is my personal favourite.
Literally anyone can set up a website, place Google Adsense ads on it,
and using some simple seo techniques, make money. How much money you
wish to earn will depend on the amount of time that you have available,
but the one thing that I like about this opportunity above the others,
is that it offers you a genuine residual income opportunity.
Once you have set up your site and attracted visitors, you can sit back
and do nothing and still watch the money come rolling in. This isn’t a
get rich quick opportunity, but with some hard work and effort at the
beginning, it is really possible to make some good money.
There is plenty of information on the internet, read and research
the options that appeal to you. Sign up to free newsletters and online
courses to find out more. Finally, take action - for without this,
you'll still just be sitting at home dreaming!
