>> What
a loaded question! Let’s narrow that down a bit and take
it from the perspective of someone who wants to work
from home and make money online in a home business. That
will make it an easier question to answer.
Let’s assume you’ve never had a website, don’t know how
to get a merchant account, don’t know html, and are
pretty much stuck with being an expert on sending and
receiving email.
What’s there for you to do online to make money? Lots,
in fact! These days are not at all like a couple of
years ago or even six months ago. If I only had all the
opportunities to make money online when I started
marketing!
Here is a list of things you can do with just a website
and a hosting account today:
Sell affiliate products (products like reports, ebooks,
hard goods of every conceivable make, model, size, shape
and function, and much, much more). Sell services (do
you know how big a business being a Virtual Assistant is
these days? It’s quite amazing what you can do for
people without ever meeting them face-to-face, anywhere
in the world!) Online auctions (Ebay has made thousands
and thousands of people full-time incomes from
auctioning collectibles, antiques, and even brand new
equipment and gadgets of all imaginable types. You name
it, it has been sold on Ebay!) Membership sites: Know of
any groups of people that would love to get insider
information on virtually any topic? You could make money
online with a membership site!
The list is a long one and one I am not prepared to
detail here. You have found your way onto the net and if
you have been surfing for very long at all you know it
is a gigantic super shopping mall. Who to you think is
making the most money online? Aside from big
corporations, most of the web is made up of sites put up
by little businesses people work from home.
I sell information and I love it. Most of the products I
sell are other merchants’ products. I just drive traffic
to my site, provide information, and point to relevant
products related to the information I provide people
looking for a way to make money online. I love helping
people make their first few sales.
After that, they are always hooked and cannot do enough
to learn everything there is to know about how to make
money online. Many people I have worked with now have a
couple to several websites selling everything from
reports to hard goods that can be shipped direct to
their customers. Most people start out to make money
online as affiliates of certain products or authors.
This is a great way to get your feet wet and learn what
making money online is all about. People then either
work to create their own products (which they get 100%
of the profits from) or expand their website into other
related niches.
