Advantages and Disadvantages of the Plug-In Profit Site Program
by Suzanne Morrison

The Plug-In Profit Site is a popular business opportunity and over 20,000 people have joined over the last 5 years or so. I was one of these people, hungry to make money online but with no idea how to do it.

Four years on, I am a bit older and a bit wiser and I have become one of the lucky few who is earning enough online to quit my job and start working full time in my pajamas.

If you are wondering "is the Plug-In Profit Site right for me?" or "what are the pros and cons of this opportunity?" then this article should help answer your questions.

While this was the perfect opportunity for me to get started with, I do recognize that everyone is different and what worked for me won't necessarily work for you. To help you get a better understanding of this opportunity I will start by summarising what it is all about and then go on to explain what the advantages and disadvantages are.

In a nutshell the Plug-In Profit Site is a home based business opportunities website created by Stone Evans, promoting five different home business programs. At the time of writing these are Host4Profit, Success University, Strong Future International (SFI).

The site is free as long as you host on Host4Profit and you can choose whether to join all five programs or just a subset of them. Some of the opportunities are free to join whilst others charge a fee.

When you apply for a Plug-In Profit Site you will receive a home business website, a series of autoresponder messages to follow up on your subscribers, access to a helpdesk and a member support forum plus a "30 days to success" training guide.

Advantages of the Plug-In Profit Site

(1) Residual Income - all the programs promoted on the Plug-In Profit Site pay residual income which means that by making one sale you can receive a commission every month. An example of this is Host4Profit hosting, which pays $10 commission per month for every customer you sign up, for as long as they remain with Host4Profit.

(2) Website Built within 24hrs - as long as you submit all your information correctly you will receive your website within 24hrs or less. Normally when you build a website there is a long period of research and it takes a lot of time and effort or money to built the site. With the Plug-In Profit site you can get started promoting your site straight away without having to worry about this.

(3) Customizable Site - as long as you know some HTML or are able to use a free website editor such as NVU you can make changes to your website. This could include adding or removing programs, adding an introduction or photo or adding new pages. Alternatively there are affordable services available from various people to enhance your website e.g. by changing the color, adding new pages and products or optimizing it.

(4) Top Notch Support Network - you will receive a day by day training guide, access to a members support forum and a support helpdesk. If it is one on one mentoring you are after then a group caled PIPS Power Group can provide online coaching at an affordable price.

Disadvantages of the Plug-In Profit Site

(1) Many of the programs within the Plug-In profit Site are MLMs(Multi Level Marketing Programs) which means that you will earn a proportion of the commissions for every person that signs up under you. I personally don't see this as a problem but many people do not like MLMs so I have included this as a disadvantage.

(2) You are not going to make money overnight. Unless you are an experienced internet marketer with a well established website or a big list it is unlikely that you will make money overnight or within the first few weeks. There is a learning curve and you will have to spend some time and effort promoting your website.

(3) Some technical knowledge required to change your website - although your website is fully customizable you do need to either learn some basic HTML OR use a web page editor like NVU to make changes to your website. You also have the option of paying someone to make changes to your webiste. If you do not want to make any changes yourself or pay to have someone make changes it will be more difficult to have success with this website.

(4) It is not free - although the site will be built for you for free, the minimum running cost is $15 a year plus $24.95 per month for hosting. If money is tight and you can barely afford to live then this is not for you.

These are the main advantages and disadvantages of the Plug-In Profit site. I hope this balanced review of the Plug-In Profit Site will help you to decide whether this is the right business opportunity for you.

Article Submitter Review!

While article submission isn't anything shockingly new to the world of SEO, many people STILL don't do it... and for good reason. It takes so incredibly long to do manually.

I'll admit, I had tried article submission at one point, but after I finally found a few article dircetories to submit my articles to, and then after manually copying and pasting my information into the required textboxes on each submission site, I quickly realized that my time could be better spent doing something else.

Then I came across a free program created by Brad Callen and Bryxen Software, Inc. that allows you to automatically submit your articles to hundreds of article directories with a few mouse clicks. Basically all I had to do was input my article criteria into the software, ONCE! Then, the
program would automatically fill in all of the required data at each of the submission websites. Pretty incredible if you ask me.

The only part I didn't understand was why the program is free... but I can't argue with that I suppose.

The software currently contains around 700 article directories, all free to submit your articles to. It is the most straightforward program that we've come across, in that all you need to do is:

1. Input your article details (i.e. title, article body, bio, etc.) into the software

2. Click on the directory you want to submit to

And then the program will automatically fill in your article details. Then, you simply click the submit button and your article is instantly submitted to the directory. Then, you can move to the next directory, go through
the list, and by the time you're finished you'll have roughly 700 one way links pointing to your website.

I can't think of an easier way to get links. Of course, if you're going to get links this quickly, it's important to submit different variations of your articles, to make things look more natural to the search engines.

You can do this very easily via Article Submitter when you create your project in the beginning.

The software is constantly being updated and their is an incredible community of users established that all work together to make the software better and better, so you know you're getting great value for the money.

Directory Submitter Review

You may or may not know that Website Directory Submission is quickly becoming a very popular and easy way to get quality, one way links to your website.

These kind of links are exactly what the search engines are looking for. The websites with more quality, one way links are typically the sites that rank the highest, period.

With that said, there are several websites dircetory submission programs on the market. The best and easiest to use is a new program created by Brad Callen, called Directory Submitter.

The software currently contains around 1700 website directories, all free. It is the most straightforward program that we've come across, in that all you
need to do is:

1. Input your website details (i.e. title, description, URL, etc.) into the software

2. Click on the directory you want to submit to

And then the program will automatically fill in your website details. Then, you simply click the submit button and your website is instantly submitted to the directory. Then, you can move to the next directory, go through the list, and by the time you're finished you'll have roughly 1500 one way links pointing to your website.

I can't think of an easier way to get links. Of course, if you're going to get links this quickly, it's important to vary your website title (anchor text) every 20-30 links or so, to make things look more natural to the search engines.

You can do this very easily via Directory
Submitter when you create your project in the beginning.

The software is constantly being updated and their is an incredible community of users established that all work together to make the software better and better, so you know you're getting great value for the money.

Secrets to Building Massive Email Lists

An email list is the absolute most effective marketing tool available on the Internet. Not only do they provide you with a direct line of communication with your target market, but they also enable you to develop a trusting relationship with your subscribers.

The key to using an email list effectively is to develop a large subscriber base. If you've struggled with increasing your subscriber base, this article will reveal some of the most effective methods used to build an email list. If you're not using these methods, you're losing hundreds of new subscribers each week.

If you really want to build a massive email list, you MUST provide your potential subscribers with an incentive. The competition on the Internet is fierce. You can no longer simply tell your visitors what your publication will provide and expect a large percentage to subscribe. It simply won't work.

There are thousands of email publications online and most of your visitors are probably all ready subscribed to many. Why would they want to subscribe to another one? Sure...you'll get some new subscribers, but how many? Enough to build a massive email list? The truth is, if you continue to build your list simply by displaying a sign-up box on your site and listing your publication at the listing sites, it will take years to develop a massive list. You MUST give your visitors a reason to subscribe.

Incentives

Using incentives is a highly effective method of obtaining new subscribers. However, your incentive must be of value and be of interest to your target audience.

Some popular incentives include:

- Exclusive ebooks that provide valuable information that will be of interest to your target market

- Special reports that provide exclusive, detailed information in regard to a specific subject

- Special software programs that will assist your visitors

If you're not comfortable developing your own incentive, there are hundreds of great ebooks available online that you may freely distribute. You can find some here: http://www.web-source.net/free_ebooks.htm

Subscription Exchange Incentives

In addition to using incentives to gain new subscribers, you can also use a subscription exchange. In exchange for your visitor's subscription, you could provide any of the following:

- Provide access to a "members only" area of your website - Provide a service - List their website within your Directory or Search Engine.

In order for your visitors to use your services, they agree to receive your publication.

Popup Windows

Although popup windows can be irritating if not used correctly, they provide a highly effective means of obtaining new subscribers. The key to using popup windows effectively is to combine them with your incentives.

Design a small popup window that utilizes "cookies" and only displays the first time your visitor enters your site. This window should contain information about your publication and incentive. It might read something like this:

Subscribe to A1 Marketing Tips and receive a copy of the highly acclaimed ebook, "Secrets of the Internet Marketing Gurus" completely free.

Your subscription box should follow this sentence.

You can find a nice popup script that utilizes cookies here: http://www.web-source.net/javascript_popup_window3.htm

You can find a complete list of sites offering free scripts here: http://www.web-source.net/web/JavaScripts/

You can find a collection of popup window FAQ's that will answer just about any question you may have here: http://developer.irt.org/script/window.htm

Alert Boxes

Although using popup windows with incentives is a highly effective method of obtaining new subscribers, there is one other method that is even better. When combined with an incentive, this method will literally double your subscriptions instantly. It's similar to a popup window, but it doesn't require your visitor to fill out a form.

When a visitor enters your site, an alert box will appear. This alert box should display text requesting their subscription and information about your incentive. Your visitor can choose to click on "OK" to subscribe or "Cancel" to close the alert.

The alert box is displayed via a script that extracts your visitor's name and email address. If they choose to subscribe, it then sends their subscription request, via email, to your subscription address and adds it to your database. In addition, you can send personalized messages to your subscribers, use autoresponder follow-ups and provide your subscribers with "one click" unsubscribe links within your messages.

To increase your subscriptions even further, you can also place a subscription box on each page of your website.

Conclusion

No matter how many new subscribers you may acquire, the key to a successful email list is keeping them. The relationship you build with your subscribers will determine your success. Above all, you must provide your readers with quality content. They subscribed to your publication for a reason. If it doesn't meet their expectations, they'll simply unsubscribe.

Once you've developed a trusting relationship with your subscribers, your personal recommendations will be a very effective method of closing sales. However, it is very important that you only recommend a product or service that you truly believe in. Your professional reputation depends on it.

Accepting Credit Card Payments Through Your Web Site

If you're selling a product on the Internet, accepting credit card payments and enabling your customers to purchase your products through your web site is a must. However, if you're just starting out, you may not be sure where to start.

Sure, you'll need a web site and product, but how will you accept credit card payments through your web site? Will you need a merchant account? How much will it cost? Are there monthly fees? If you have a digital product, how will you deliver your product to your customer? The process can be very intimidating. However, after reading this article, you will see just how simple it really is.

When the Internet first began, there weren't many choices when it came to accepting payment through your web site. You either had a merchant account, which was usually quite costly, or you had to provide a mailing address for your customers to 'snail' mail you checks and money orders. Eventually, online business owners were able to accept checks online, which made things a little easier.

Today, however, there are many options when it comes to accepting credit card payments through your web site. Online payment processors will enable you to begin accepting payments - in a matter of days - without a merchant account or monthly fees. You are usually only charged a fee when and if you make a sale.

Credit Card Payment Processing Companies

The two most popular payment processors for online businesses are ClickBank and PayPal:

ClickBank http://www.clickbank.com

ClickBank is a payment processing service that will enable you to sell digital products. They will enable you to accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, Eurocard, Visa-Debit, MasterCard-Debit, Novus credit cards, electronic checks and PayPal. Services are available for US and non-US merchants.

They charge a small one-time activation fee and a small fee per sale. However, they do not charge a monthly fee. If you don't make any sales, there are no additional fees.

ClickBank also enables you to have your own affiliate program, which will enable you to increase the sales of your product. They provide a market place where you can advertise your products and affiliate marketers can learn how they can sell your products for a commission of the sales.

One of the best benefits of using ClickBank is that they handle everything for you. Not only do they take care of all the money and pay your affiliates, but they also send you a check twice a month for the sales that have been made.

PayPal http://www.paypal.com

PayPal will enable any business or consumer with an email address to securely send and receive payments online. You can also accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover credit cards and electronic checks. You can sell with PayPal through an online auction, on your own web site, or as part of an online marketplace. They also offer recurring billing. There are no setup fees. However, they charge a small fee per transaction. Services are available for US and non-US merchants.

Like ClickBank, PayPal has a market place where you can list your product; however, there is a fee. Unlike ClickBank, affiliates cannot sign up to sell your product through PayPal. Instead, if you want an affiliate program, you must set up your own affiliate system.

One of the best benefits of opening a PayPal account is that it is basically an online paperless bank account. You can deposit and withdraw money, use a PayPal debit card at any store that accepts Mastercard, and even get a PayPal charge card if you'd like.

Integrating Your Payment Processor with Your Web Site

When you sign up with either ClickBank or PayPal, you will be provided with a snippet of HTML code to place within your web page. Simply paste the code into the HTML portion of your web page where you would like your button to appear. Once the button appears, your visitors can click on it to purchase your product. It's that simple.

Delivering Your Digital Product to Your Customer

When using either ClickBank or PayPal to process your payments, they will ask you to provide them with the web address of your 'Thank you' page, also known as a 'Download' page. This is the web page your customers will be sent to once they complete their purchase. This page should be used to thank your customer for purchasing your product and tell them how much their credit card has been charged and by whom. In addition, you will need to provide instructions on this page to assist your customer in downloading your product.

To create a download link on your 'Thank you' page, most servers will allow you to simply link to the file on your web server. When your customer clicks on your download link, a download window will load and enable them to save your product to their computer. If this method of linking doesn't work for you, contact your server administrator for assistance.

Online payment processing services will enable you to quickly and easily accept credit card payments through your web site. They provide a quality service for Internet marketers at a reasonable price. Visit these great sites and start accepting payment through your web site in just a matter of days. You'll be glad you did.

Developing a Profitable Internet Business

The Internet has brought opportunities that most of us never even imagined were possible. This includes the ability to quickly start a business with very little investment. The Internet has created many self-made millionaires. Many of these new millionaires made their money from the comfort of their own home. Although there are many business opportunities available online, the truth is that making money from hyped up opportunities rarely works out well. With that said, however, it really is possible to make a lot of money online, if you are willing to work for it. You must have the vision, the personal drive, and the determination to succeed.

Determination is the key word here. Without a burning determination, you will not succeed. Making money online is hard work, and many people who are on the brink of success fail simply because they give up.

So, what are the true secrets of online success? Here are some things that most successful online business people possess:

True Passion

If you are not truly passionate about your niche, and the products or services that you sell, you probably won't succeed, simply because you can't sincerely put your heart into it.

A Real Domain Name

Using free web hosting is highly unprofessional, and should be avoided. You need your own domain name for your business, along with a quality web hosting service. Anything less sends up red flags to your potential customers.

A Great Web Site

Your web site is the first impression that your potential customers have of you, so you have to make it good. Creating such a web site does take time, and if you aren't sure about what you're doing, you should hire someone to create your web site for you.

Outstanding Content

People need a reason to visit your web site. They're looking for quality content about a topic that is important or interesting to them. If you don't know how to create your own content, hire a ghostwriter to do this for you. Furthermore, if you want visitors to return time and again, you must continually provide fresh content.

Targeted Traffic

In all of your advertising endeavors, you must target the right people. If you receive hundreds or thousands of non-targeted visitors, it won't do you a bit of good, as they're not interested in what you're offering. You must ensure that you are directing your advertising dollars to the right people - the people who will want to buy your product or service.

Your Own Opt-In List

Anyone who is successful on the Internet has an opt-in list. This is true for the smallest of business owners and major corporations alike. With an opt-in list, you have the ability to bring potential customers back to your site over and over again - as long as they remain a subscriber on your opt-in list.

A Great Product or Service

You have to believe in the products or services that you are selling. Whether it is your own product or an affiliate product, your belief in that product is what matters, as you will be able to inspire others to make a purchase.

Outstanding Sales Copy

Sales copy has always been tricky, but there really is a formula that works. You should take a course in writing sales copy, or hire a professional copywriter to develop your sales copy for you. Sales copy should reflect your passion and excitement, as well as the benefit that the customer will receive from the product or service being offered.

A Strategic Marketing Plan

Developing a successful Internet marketing strategy will play a major role in your success. You must use both short-term and long-term marketing strategies to drive continuous targeted traffic to your web site. Short term marketing strategies, such as purchasing advertising, bring a temporary increase in traffic. Long-term marketing strategies, such as an opt-in list, continue to produce results for years.

Trust and Credibility

Trust and credibility is also an important part of your success. People want to know that you are a human being - not a corporation. They want to hear from you personally, and this can be accomplished with your opt-in list. You have to let your potential customers know that you are indeed an expert in your field, and that you can be trusted. This is done through the words that you say, the products that you offer, and how you conduct yourself online.

The Ability to Accept Numerous Types of Payment

You must have the ability to accept credit cards, but you should also be able to accept electronic checks, payments via PayPal, and even offer your customers the ability to pay by mail. The more payment options you have available, the more sales you will make.

Overall, you must have the right attitude for success. Keep a positive outlook, figure out what it is that you need to do, and get it done with full force and determination.

Ebook Marketing: How to Drive Traffic to Your Site With Ebooks

If you're looking for a great way to drive traffic to your web site, creating and distributing free ebooks may be your answer.

Although there are several different types of ebooks, this article will focus on HTML compiled ebooks.

Ebooks or electronic books are compressed files of HTML that are distributed and presented within one downloadable file. This file does not require any installation and will open on your readers desktop simply by clicking on it.

Ebooks are completely interactive with the Internet and can contain just about everything a standard web page contains, such s live links, graphics, forms, JavaScript, and video. They can also be protected with a username and password and can be prevented from being passed around by only displaying on one computer.

What's more, you can even create a shareware version of your ebook that will either expire at a specified time, or only allow your potential customers to view certain pages and prompt them to purchase the full version.

Another great feature ebooks provide is the ability to create special fields within your ebook that can be changed by your readers if you so choose. This provides a great way to create promotional ebooks for your affiliates and allow them to include their own affiliate ID.

The possibilities are endless!

Please note: If you would like to create an ebook with any of the above features, not all ebook software programs offer these features. Please ensure you select an ebook software that will meet your needs.

Creating an Ebook to Use as a Viral Marketing Tool

Although ebooks make great products that you can sell online, they also make great marketing tools.

Offering a quality free ebook on your web site is a great way to get your visitors to come back to your web site and obtain repeat traffic.

This can be accomplished by including links to further information on your web site within your ebook and providing your readers with special offers.

Writing Your Ebook

The key to writing an effective free ebook is to select a subject that will be of interest to your target market. If your web site focuses on web site traffic, you may want to write an ebook on generating traffic.

For example, you could write an ebook, such as, "A Complete 'How To' Guide to Generating Massive Traffic to Your Site." Include several references to your site throughout your ebook, such as 'For even more great traffic generating tips, visit 'Traffic Tips' - Your complete source for generating massive traffic to your web site.

Increasing the Distribution of Your Ebook

Although giving your ebook to your visitors and obtaining repeat traffic is a good marketing strategy, allowing your visitors to distribute your ebook is a great strategy.

If your ebook is good, here is an example of how powerful your ebook can be:

10 of your visitors download your ebook. Your 10 visitors each give away 10 ebooks - 100 Those 100 each give away 10 ebooks - 1000 Those 1000 each give away 10 ebooks - 10,000 Those 10,000 each give away 10 ebooks - 100,000 Those 100,000 each give away 10 ebooks - 1,000,000

For massive distribution, make sure you include a short paragraph on your main page in regard to your copyrights and distribution. For example, if you're allowing your ebook to be freely distributed, let your readers know by giving them permission. Your text might look something like this:

This ebook may be freely distributed, used as a free bonus with any products you may be selling, included within membership sites and packages, and used as an incentive to gain new subscribers to your publication.

The key to using this technique effectively is to create a quality ebook that contains powerful information that will be of interest to your target market - not just any information, but information that your target market will be absolutely passionate about. Information that they would pay for and are just dying to get their hands on!

Please keep in mind, you can't write a cheap little ebook of little or no value, filled with ads, and expect it to be successful. Your ebook must be good enough to actually sell to be good enough to use as a viral marketing tool.

Ebooks can provide Internet marketers with one of the best viral marketing tools online. By creating a small, quality ebook that contains in-demand information, you can produce an on going promotional tool that will work 24 hours a day, seven days a week for years to come. Your ebook will have the potential to be viewed by millions of Internet users simply by giving it away.

Private Label Rights Products: Your Key to Quick Profits

If you're looking for a quick and easy way to begin marketing online, private label rights products may be your answer. Not only are they very reasonably priced, but they also provide a great way to quickly get your own products on the market.

What Are Private Label Rights?

Private label rights, also known as PLR products, are products that you can purchase with complete rights. You can change it in any way you'd like to make it uniquely yours, and sell it as your own product.

Private label rights products are usually digital products, such as ebooks, articles and software. However, you can create hard copy manuals, CD's or whatever type of product you would like simply by using the information you purchased.

Many Internet marketers have started very successful businesses simply by using PLR products.

By using PLR products, not only will you save yourself a great deal of time and effort, but you can also avoid the high costs of hiring someone to create products for you.

Where Can I Find PLR Products?

There are many sites that sell PLR packages. Some sites are membership sites where you pay a monthly membership fee to have access, and new PLR products are added each month.

Other sites just sell a certain number of PLR packages, but don't require membership. Either way, the sale of PLR products is usually limited to prevent the market from becoming saturated with that product - which means that the PLR products will be more valuable.

However, not all PLR products are valuable. Ideally, you should join a membership site that is limited and provides you with new, original PLR products each month, instead of just giving you PLR products that are available elsewhere.

What Can I Do With PLR Products?

There are many ways you can use PLR products. You can rewrite and distribute the articles to promote your web site, display them as web site content, or even repackage and sell the PLR products for a profit.

For instance, you could use fifty PLR articles on growing roses to create an ebook. You could use motivational articles to create a motivational CD. Or even use the articles to create a hard copy manual. The possibilities are endless.

The key to using PLR products successfully is to make the products unique. As other people will be purchasing the same PLR products that you do, you certainly don't want to promote the exact same product. Your chance of being successful will be minimal. However, by rewriting the content and having some new graphics created, you can have a unique product that is completely different from all of the others on the market.

If you don't feel confident in your ability to rewrite the content, or simply don't have the time, you may want to consider hiring a ghostwriter. Although you will have to pay for the services of a ghostwriter, you can find services that are very reasonably priced.

Private label rights products provide Internet marketers with one of the best ways to get started online. They provide quality content at a very reasonable price.

How to Protect Yourself from Home Based Business Scams

While there are many lucrative home based opportunities on the Internet, there are also many scams that one must be aware of in their quest for a home business. Scam artists are in abundance, and just waiting for someone who is hopeful - and inexperienced - to happen by. Don't let it be you! Of course, there are scam artists who target those who want to start their own home based business, but there are also scam artists who target average computer users around the world. These scam artists are adept at creating web sites that look and feel just like the web sites that you commonly use. For example, they can make an exact duplicate site of your banks web site, in an attempt to trick you into providing them with your username and password, or other sensitive data, such as your account number or credit card number.

In home based business scams, however, things work a bit differently. In this case, the scammer simply wants you to give him your money, in exchange for a load of lies and unfulfilled promises. He doesn't need your bank account information, he just needs payment, which inexperienced hopeful people will happily give him. He will take your money knowing that he is crushing your dreams and draining your bank account - and he won't care.

Protecting Yourself from Business Opportunity Scams

So, how can you protect yourself from these scammers? The first step is to use good, sound common sense. As always, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Learn to recognize hype, and to avoid offers that are 'hyped.' Hype means that outlandish promises are being made. For example, a scammer might promise you that you can make tens of thousands of dollars in just a few short days, with little or no work. That is a common ploy used in scammy home based business advertisements.

Research the Company

Before you invest your hard earned money in any business opportunity, you need to fully research the company. Check with the Better Business Bureau first to see if there are any negative reports. You can also pay for a basic background check, which generally costs less than twenty bucks. A great deal can be learned from such basic information.

Personal Information

Use a post office box, instead of your home address, and never give out personal details if you can avoid it. However, when doing business online, many times you will need to provide personal information. When doing so over the Internet, make sure that the site is secure by ensuring that the web site address in your address bar begins with https://, instead of just http://.

Read the Fine Print

Read everything, including the fine print, and make sure that you don't pay for anything until you have read all agreements and such. You should know exactly what you are paying for, before you send that payment. If possible, ask to talk directly with other people who have invested in the business opportunity, and verify who they are. Note that a scammer can put people up to telling you anything that they think that you want to hear, but often, when asked for references and such, a scammer will move on.

Common Sense

Once again, use good common sense in all transactions, and trust your instincts. If it feels wrong, it probably is. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. If you are unsure, do not move forward until you are sure. The right business opportunity will come along, but by paying attention, and knowing what to be on the lookout for, you won't spend a great deal of time or money investing in business scams.

The Science Of Making Money Online

Do you have what it takes to be an e-entrepreneur?

Copyright © Stone Evans, The Home Biz Guy

Author of "Dotcomology - The Science of Making Money Online"

These days, it seems like everyone wants to work
from home and make money on the Internet. But
before you even turn on your computer, the first
question you have to ask yourself is whether
you’re cut out for this kind of work.

The fact is, building a home-based business isn’t
for everyone. Some people like the commute. They
really do enjoy having a boss who tells them what
to do, and they like the routine of working
nine-to-five for an ordinary salary that can
barely pay the mortgage. Personally, I think
they’re nuts.

More reasonably, there are people who are
concerned about the risk of starting up their own
business. They’re not sure it’s worth the
investment of time and money, and they’re scared
of the responsibility that comes with running
their own company. They wonder if there is
another way to escape the rat race.

I’m sure there is. You could win the lottery or
wait for your Aunt Sue to keel over and leave you
her condo. Or maybe you could sit down with a pen
and paper and draw the blueprint for "The Next
Big Thing". Anything can happen... Right?

For me, what happened was creating a successful,
self-running Internet marketing system. It didn’t
happen without effort. It didn’t happen without
at least some initial investment of both time and
money and, of course, it doesn’t happen now
without me making sure that the taxes are filed
and the paperwork is done. But it happened.

I’m my own boss. I work from home according to my
own schedule and I get to pocket all the cash my
business makes. If you’re prepared to give an
e-business the time, the work and the money it
needs to get started and get growing, it can
happen for you too.
