I was recently asked to talk about making my first hundred dollars online. This was only in 2006, so the memory is still very fresh in my mind. I was sure I could make money on the internet because I saw that so many other people were doing it. I was determined to succeed and to be able to work from home or from wherever I had an internet connection.
The first thing I recommend, if you want to build your business on the internet, is to find someone who has already been successful in this area and to learn from what they are doing. Once I figured this out I was able to start making money by avoiding the mistakes that others had already made.
Spend some time every day looking at what people are writing about and selling on the internet. What will sell best for you is a digital product that is about something you are interested in or have personal knowledge about. For example, if you have arthritis, you can write or promote eBooks, audio recordings, and other information products that help people live with their arthritis.
Remember that you are a problem solver on the internet. What is it that keeps you awake at night? For me it was the fear of not having enough money to pay my bills every month. So my niche has become teaching people how to create their own products and how to promote affiliate products so they can make money while they sleep. There are so many ways to do this, that you could spend the next ten years exploring them all.
Be willing to read all you can about making money from home on your computer, and then take action. Start a blog, write some articles, and set up a one page web site. If you don’t know how to do these things, spend some time and just a small amount of money to learn how to do them. Making money online is easier than you might think, once you know how to do it.
There are many ways to make money on the internet, and you can visit http://www.WorkFromHomeCatalog.com to see how I got started in 2006. Make this the year you build a profitable online business.

I would like to find a work at home job for being my own boss and becoming financial free and make my own hours and most of all being my own boss
OH MY…….from reading most of your replies, I’d suggest you go back to school. Learn how to write, to spell, to communicate in good American English……..if you can’t do that and your writing skills are as bad as they appear, no one will take you serious…….and everyone will think “Hmmmmmmm. Bet I can scam this one too, cause it’s evident they have no education.”
Sorry if I hurt your feelings, but people - you gotta be able to write and spell professionally. Good luck though. I’m looking also - maybe we’ll all get blessed.
I also want to make money from home without a scam!
If there are any legitimate ways to make money from home I would surely like to know about them… thankyou

would like a job working at home Please no scams and no money up front if we can make money together get in tutch with me. thank you
Im a trucker & it just dont cut it any moore,I want to learn more about on line biz.
I just lost my husband who left me no insurance. His social security is not enough to pay all the bills, so I need a job. I was terminated from my job because I could not lift more than 10 pds. When he died, I lost my ss disability, which helped with the bills. I even had to stop my cable and a couple other things and still do not have enough money. All at home jobs want me to pay them to get started. Why do I have to pay someone to hire me?
I would also like to make money from home. I stay at home with my 3 year old and just one income isn’t enough anymore. so if anyone knows of a honest company that is not a scam please email me.
This is for Karen. There isn’t too many businesses that you can start for free, are you sure these people want to hire you or are you going to be self-employed? I’ve seen a lot of scams.I don’t think you should be paid to get hired for a job either. But starting a home based business is different.People only value what they pay for instead of what is free.
I will try to my family always happy. But i will no job and i find a good job. and good money.
just want to make money and not get scamed
Ive almost lost all hope on these “Make money from home” these people if you want to call them that are vicious snakes on the ground. Ripping needy people off of there Hard Earned money-All these scams-Pay this and pay that and you’ll make money, Send for this and Send for that-and then they send you(if they even send anything) a piece of Junk-And there went your money-and the bills keep pilling up! Who can you trust now a days? Everyones out for themselves-What happen to what Jesus said ” Love your neighbor as yourselves” Do good to everyone when given the chance”- Not these Snakes in the grass-they do the devils work-One day they will have to face Jesus, face to face and give account for everyone they ever lied too and ripped them off-What you gonna do when Jesus comes after you? Well that’s my comment-God Bless and Have a Happy, Happy Holiday with your Families. Don’t forget Jesus-Its His Day.
I’ve tried stay at home employment in as where any and all sponsor’s want the cash for the start up plans, so if there is one out their that can extend the credit needed, I’m all for it.
No thought’s as of yet.
I’ve read all of the comments above and I do agree that there is a heck of a lot of different types of scams out there. I also agree with the person who commented on the fact that a lot of you need to brush up on how to communicate and in using the American English language. I, too, would like to find a very legitimate business that I could run from my home since I am disabled and confined to my apartment. Any suggestions anyone?
I am interested in a work at home job.something that is honest and legit.no scams with bbb backing(607-352-9598

I would like a job typing up medical reports, at home.Send to address above.If you have a job in medical transcription I would be interested in it.Thank you very much.

If you have any seamstress skills, place a small ad in your local newspaper to do alterations. Bachelors are always popping a button, needing jeans patched, or want a coat zipper replaced. Prom time is a good time to advertise to sew/alter dresses. Check with your local drycleaners to see what they charge to launder/iron shirts. I believe ours gets $1.99 a shirt.
Connect with the nursing homes to see if you can repair bed blankets, hem sheets, and other mending/patching.
Daycare in your home. My grandmother was in her 70’s, babysat newborns. Feed them, burp them, diaper them, rock them to sleep. All you need is a bassinette (that you can pick up at a garage sale). Request cash.
I have cleaned house for a bachelor for the last year. I do four loads of laundry every time I go. Put an ad in the paper to do laundry in your home. Decide how you will do pickup and dropoff. Request cash.
Clean your closets, basements, attics, and have a yard sale with your neighbors. Run one ad, and include anyone that wants to do the same on your block. Request cash for sales.
Snow-blowing and snow shoveling. Seasonal work, request cash.
Lawn-mowing -
I called someone about mowing my lawn. They told me they get $25 an hour!
Run errands for elderly. Our cab service here gets $7 to drive you anywhere, one-way, in town. Could be to the dentist, the doctor, the grocery store, or the vet. Lots of elderly, don’t drive, don’t have family, and don’t have cab service in their town. It also provides them with security that someone is checking in to see if they are fine. Your face may be the only face they see all day.
Sell on Ebay. Dolls, clocks, jewelry,crafts, antiques. Go to garage sales, estate sales to find these items. Register on Ebay and then look to see what people are selling and the prices they are getting when the sale ends. Ebay walks you through the whole process. You don’t have to be a college graduate to do it. A farmer in Iowa could do it.
Housecleaning, pet-sitting, elderly sitting, pays me $15 an hr. You use their vacuum, their cleaning supplies, and you clean the house as if it were your own. Don’t be afraid to organize a cupboard or wipe out the refrigerator shelves.
I’ve tried Avon. You have to pay $10 for starting supplies. Then you buy catalogs, demos, samples, pay postage, gas for your car to deliver, and hope people will have the money for what they order so you’re not stuck with product you can’t sell to anyone else because the shelf life has ran out. Or, you will get those that want their money refunded. How many garage sales have you gone to that previous sales reps for Avon are trying to unload product they got stuck with?
I’ve tried Watkins Products. Good product. $60 to get your kit, then $30 a year to keep your rep status. You make 25% of everything you sell. However, Watkins has undercut their reps by putting their products in Walmart, Fareway Grocery, and Theisen’s Farm Supply here in Iowa. What I have to sell for $4.99, these stores can sell for $1.88 to $3.49. What I have to sell for $8.99, these stores are selling for $6, because they can buy volume.
Make and sell your own soy candles, your own bath soap, potpourri, your own seasoning blends, cookies, pies, cakes, and jellies at Farmers’ Markets. Get online and search for recipes. If you don’t want to load and unload your car to travel to these markets, check your local craft stores to pay for a space for your product (consignment).
Teach someone to do calligraphy, tole paint, crochet, build a birdhouse, decorate cakes. Advertise with a small ad in your local paper that you are giving classes in your home, set a price, tell them what they need to bring to the class and what you will provide. If the weather is nice, have the class in your yard.

I FELL AND BRORK MY BACK IN 20008
tired of working for some one else want to work for myself
i would like to know how people can sell the same identical programs? all there doing is just putting different names on the material. i’m talking about undergroung cash secrete michael vicent and atuomated wealth system brian austin.
I need more information regarding legitimate work from home/internet programs. I would like to avoid opportunist who seek to scam, hard-working and honest people. I can’t afford to take any more losses. please e-mail me.
I don’t have alot of experience doing anything that would generate an income from the internet. I have joined avon selling thier products. I will contunie selling them until I find something that will generate more then I can spend. I have some ideas that I will keep to myself. I would rather let others know that you can, because it’s being done as I’m typing this and as your reading this millions have been made. But one idea I can share with you is that we all want some kind of information and we will pay almost any kind of amount to get it, I know I have. So if your looking for a internet business, Look into selling info. If you can sell something you really know about and you have a real good clarification on it and it will make sense to you. Then let somebody you don’t know read the paper you have the info on and see what they think about it. Tell them you need them to be very critical and honest, but grulling too. Then find a way to put it in a format to sell ove the internet. Also don’t forget to ask the person if it solves a problem and would they buy it and for how much. After you have gone to many people and have recorded thier responses, then you will know how much to charge others and if you need to work on what your selling.
i will to start w working at hom program but i dont have the start up money

The best way to make money from home is by using a site such as Craigslist or Newsday to find a job entering data or typing from home. While at Craigslist.com if do a search in different areas for Typist under the jobs category, you can find a few different stay at home options. Another good way to make money online is to use a blogging site, such as Xomba.com. Yes, you have to sign up for a Google Adsense account, and it takes a couple of days to get approved, but it will provide a little bit of cash flow. So far in the couple of weeks I have worked with Xomba/Adsense I have made $30. If you are willing to put in the time to type articles, really about anything you want them to be about, it can pay off.
Another decent site that I found is oDesk.com, you sign up for a COMPLETELY FREE membership, and they have HUNDREDS of different typing jobs available from HUNDREDS of different companies. You will need a Paypal account, or some account you can be payed through. Also, at oDesk you have to take a beginners test to ensure that you are “oDesk certified” for the companies. It’s really easy, it’s 11 questions long, and most of the answers are “All of the above.” Trust me I’ve taken it. If you have any other questions, or would like to inquire on any other sites I am testing for legitamacy, feel free to e-mail me at alyssa_morrell@hotmail.com

An afterthought after skimming back through the comments. Brenda Mosher, unless you have between 1 to 5 years of Medical Transcripting under your belt, you aren’t going to find any good job in that field. Your best bet would be to look for a Data Entry job. They are much more simple, and require a lot less experiance.
Alyssa
LOOK PEOPLE YOU SHOULD NEVER HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING TO WORK FOR ANYONE,I SAW ON THE NEWS THE OTHER DAY A COUPLE OF WEBSITE THAT MAY WORK FOR SOMEONE AND THEY ARE AS FOLLOWS ELANCE.COM,ODESK.COM,99DESIGNS.COM.GOD BLESS AND GOOD LUCK.

Well now, it gets quite exhausting searching for a no cost start-up home business.
It becomes frustrating getting involved in online businesses that take my money, rather than making it.
Please help if you can.

i was laid off from my job of 9 years and can’t find anyone hiring. i would like to make money from home, but like everyone else. who can you trust, and without putting out a lot of money first.
Hi Everyone!
After reading all of the comments regarding a Home Based Business, that is real, and that is not a “SCAM”, and that will not require upfront capital, is very hard to find to say the least, I use myself as the perfect example, because like many of you, have been taken, ripped off, whatever you want to call it. But with all of that, I still continue to move forward,and take the bad experiences as part of life learning and challenges that we all must bear with, because as you all know there are way more bad than good in life and they will take advantage of people however they can, why? because they lust for MONEY!!!not because they want to provide a good life for their families. Each and everyone one of you that have posted your comments on this page, are good, hardworking people with good morals and the best of intentions to do the best you can for your loved ones, I know this to be true, because that is my one and only desire in life, to care for and enjoy life with the one’s that you love. I thank you all for allowing me to vent my anger and frustration, because we are all in the same boat that is slowly sinking, There is a bit of GOOD NEWS to all of this though….and the reason for this is because of my being stubborn and never giving up because deep down inside of me, I knew that I would have to one day stumble upon something that is real, THAT IS NOT A SCAM!!!…if any of you want information on what I am doing, all you have to do is email me @alan.hashimoto@yahoo.com, before I close this commentary contacting me will cost you nothing,I am not trying to make anything off of any of you. This is the absolute truth, Karma is a very powerful thing!!!
In closing, I would like to leave you with a powerful quote that is used by almost all of the most successful people that are out there…BELIEVE IN YOURSELF…AND NEVER, NEVER, EVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS…DON’T LET PEOPLE INFLUENCE YOU WITH THEIR NEGATIVE THOUGHTS. There is hope because there is still GOOD PEOPLE out there, somewhere…….!!
Aloha,
