Help! I'm a 37 year old homemaker with an insignificant job history!?

However, I have been self employed in door to door sales. I was pretty sucessful at it. I became pregnant and stopped. That was over 2 years ago.

I'M NOW LOOKING FOR A WAY TO USE MY COMPUTER TO MAKE MONEY AT HOME. I know about the websites, like project payday and survey sites- I just want to use MY OWN WEBSITE to generate a little income- like, couldn't I write intresting stuff to draw traffic then sale something or advertise for someone?

I never finished college, but I am skilled at writing factual information and humor, pursuasion, and giving good and well-accepted personal advise, especially to teens. I could probably come up with a few other personal skills if I thought about it.

HOW MIGHT I INCORPORATE THOSE SKILLS INTO MY OWN WEBSITE AND EARN AROUND $300. A MONTH?

Are there any specific technical points that I should know to go along with your answer?

By the way, I'm broke, so please don't try to sell me any kits or books on the topic.

Thanks for your help.

  1. Try affiliate marketing! Shoot me an email for more details!


  2. I'm a stay at home mom with a website/travel hobby that earns money. It was a very slow process at first but now a steady stream of income. The company helps with marketing, design, monetizing, hosting and teaches you how to make it show up in the top 30 on a search, hosting and so much more there is a small fee nothing worth while is free. The fee is prorated and refunded if you don't like it. good luck

    Try the "about us" page at www.cheap-fun-family-travel

    I'm in the top 20 on Yahoo and the top 40 on google, 40 on live and 30 on Ask my page rating is 1,212,909 out of billions not bad after only 3 months

  3. if all you want is a website most home based business let you do that! i know with what i do (Passion Parties & Gold Canyon) that by paying xtra for my site to have a shopping cart all i need to do is get people to buy online! Another option is called YTB its used to book travel. You sign up to join them and then you just tell people to go to your site to book their travel buy tickets and what not. It's like expedia but anyone who wants to can have their own website! You can even send flowers thru YTB. THe internet does the work for you! all you need to do is get the people there! So, how many people do you know that travel? Do they like you more than expedia? I'm guessing since they don't know expedia on a personal level, they will pick you!!!! :D and you make a profit everytime someone books travel! If you are interested let me know and i can get you hooked up with someone who really knows about the how that biz works! you can also check out this site.....     www.janistravels.com            and check it out for yourself! feel free to get ahold of Janis for info. She is my aunt who is a part of YTB and knows more about the biz.

    Best of Luck and i hope you find what you are looking for!!!!

  4. It shouldn't take too much effort to generate $300 monthly. Start with a website and a blog, of similar genre that you can cross-link them, and start promoting them. Both allow you to control your content and sell advertising space on them. Once those two are going, add a new promotional tool to your marketing repertoire each month.

    I have a number of promotional resources and detailed strategy I can pass along to you if you'd like to email me with your email address. (no charge)

  5. its best to get out and get a job the state will pay for childcare go find out get out the house and work belive me its better

  6. The R&D alone could potentially be very expensive and, as you said, you're broke.  There are a ton of home-based franchises out there.  Why don't you try and find one that fits your lifestyle and interests.  It'd be a lot less expensive than starting from scratch and the support alone (assuming it's a good company) could be worth the start-up fees.

    The one that I'm a part of has two different opportunities, one with associated start-up fees, and one that costs absolutely nothing.  Email me and I will send you some info.

  7. Hi!

    Try affiliate marketing if you have the internet access full time. It won't cost a single penny to initiate and you can earn well if you learn it, which is a very simple process.

    Check following links:

    http://offto.net/clickbank_1376/

    http://offto.net/paydotcom_e5d3/

    Please note that they both are free to register and you can choose the products of your choice in the "Market Place" which you can promote and earn commission upto 75% through cheques and paypal account.

  8. After reading your question, it seems to me like you would be better off advertising to "mothers" probably "single moms".

    Seeing how you know how to deal with teens, write articles about certain topics that teens face in life for the "moms" to read and understand their teens problem, and how to help them deal with it.

    You can sell these articles/reports for a little money or alot of money depending on how long the report is.

    Make the reports about different topics...

    - bullys

    - sexual problems

    - school

    - peer pressure

    - etc. etc.

    I hope this makes you think of how valuable the information that you have in your head is..

    Also, about your website...

    Try writing like you're talking directly to someone, avoid the word " I "... Your "sales copy" can be any length as long as it "sells!"

    Have someone proof-read your sales copy after you get done and ask them "honestly"... if they would buy one of the reports..

    Write the reports before or after you write your sales copy for your website. You will want to have them ready to sell when you post your sales copy onto your website and start marketing it.

    I hope this helps, I know it's a lot but hopefully it gave you something that you were searching for. Good luck!

    PS. Google search a few topics:

    - how to write sales copy

    - how to create a successful eBook business

    - how to make sales from my website

    - I'm sure you can think of some more.... :-)
