  1. There are quite a few such as paiting, dressmaking, bookkeeping, even baby sitings and so on.  Hope this helps


  2. You can start outsourcing data entry projects or other different kind projects according to your experience.

  3. Check out Ameriplan and see the possibilities for yourself! www.iboplus.com/kkimball

    Good Luck!

  4. Have you considered trying out an ebay business? There's a much smaller learning curve when compared to more conventional online ventures.

  5. Wow you received a lot of answers! I remember going through that once! :) Its is a lot to sift through and can get quite frustrating. (speaking from past experience) If you are serious, I can save you some time! email me for info. I would like to help!

  6. One very simple way to start working for yourself using the internet is to create a basic page which features affiliate links to companies like Amazon and Newegg. It will cost around $2 for a domain, and you can get free hosting.

    Then, just ask family and friends to go via your site when ordering from these companies.

    It won't make you rich, but it can give you an income which you can then build on. It takes less than a day to set up and could be worth a couple of hundred bucks a month.

  7. Massage parlour.

  8. you can go to collage and become a psychologist. someone who helps people that has problems. you can take a vacation anytime you want to.

  9. I told you my idea - making crafts and small celebration cakes from home and selling them via the Internet and car-boots and craft fairs.

    Why don't you have any faith in my ideas? Do you think I am just some talentless slob??

    I can't make much of a start until I have the right equipment. If my not earning is such a problem perhaps you should have considered this before you impregnated me for the THIRD time running.

    Also, when am I supposed to do all this work from home?? I don't USUALLY have a moment to spare, I am up with the kids from 7am and go to bed at 10-11pm exhausted. I have no social life - when was the last time I went out? - and some days don't get to c**p properly I am so busy.

    At least if I make crafts then I will ENJOY what I do, as some kind of little hobby.

    You seem to want me to turn into some entrepreneur business woman over night, making millions. I am a housewife, Adam.

    Why not support me in doing what I want to do, and maybe show some interest and encouragement when I talk about improving the skills I have, via adult education.

    How would you feel if I made a question 'How can my man improve himself - he is only a lowly manual labour worker'? Not nice is it?

    You could at least have discussed it with me first before putting it on the net and asking strangers.

    I am sure you meant no harm and was just trying to help though.

    LOVE YOU x*x

  10. You can start sell something on ebay. if you dont want to sell on ebay then 'affiliate marketing' is a solution. if you dont want to start with affiliate marketing then you can join with any online survey site to get some extra cash. If you think survey is looks like hard to do then find out any outsourcing company that will enable you to do work from home. But remember dont spend money to any online company & be carful about scam.

  11. If it were easy, everyone would do it. So you can start from the assumption that it's going to be d**n hard work building a home-based business from nothing.

    Ideally it would be a mail-order business with a website, selling unique items (not retailing things people can buy anywhere) with a good gross profit margin.

    Unfortunately I've been thinking about this since 2004 and haven't managed to come up with any suitable product ideas that don't involve a lot of manufacturing! You may be luckier.

    Of course you'll have to comply with all the red tape that the government imposes in order to make it as hard as possible to do business.

  12. sell things either from your own website or on popular auction sites such as

    http://www.ebay.co.uk

    http://www.ebid.com

    or you could specialise in one particular type of product and sell them on a specialist site like

    http://www.GameBidder.co.uk

  13. There are many scams out there and you should research the heart of these companies before joining. Even good companies get bad names from bad people doing bad things in the name of the company. If your looking to research a great on line company try this www.ytb.com/grandsunsettravel and email us a grandsunsettravel@sbcgloabl.net

  14. Dear Adam,

      

    First, a few things.

    1. Don't try anything that asks for a credit card or payment of any kind before you can really try it and check it out.

    2. Don't try anything unless you can do a search on yahoo/google and find out some real info on it. (Beware of sites that make their own bogus "review site)

    3. Don't try anything unless you can find a forum talk to others about the business.

    4. Don't try anything that you can't talk/meet some people who are having success with it.

    I was a struggling realtor/home flipper in Florida when I met a successful business owner in my town through a friend who introduced me to an internet advertising company.

    I did some serious due diligence, BBB, called testimonials, googled the owner, etc. Awesome company and 8 weeks later i have about 85k more than i started.

    1. You can google them and check them out on the BBB.

    Nothing but positive. The only negative thing i have found is that their customer service can be a bit slow. I have since found out that is because they are now adding about 2,000 people a day and they are hiring more customer service and have just acquired a new 11,000 square foot office building.

    2. You can google the owner and find out info on owner. Nothing but positive and successful.

    3. You can join for free and check it out. Never a credit card asked for or anything like that.

    4. I can give you names and numbers of successful people who are making alot of money with it.

    5. I can give you a forum that is not associated with the company and you can talk to others about it.

    6. No need to sell a thing.

    7. This company's goal is to be the next Google/Myspace an instead of one owner and lots of stockholders making all the money it is us. That is how it is possible for me to have made 85k so far. (that is verifiable. I print my statement everyday.)

    ***I can pretty much bet there isn't anyone else out there offering these things. It's because they can't/won't. We can because we are a legitimate company.

    My goal was to help you avoid getting scammed like I have not give you a pitch but if you want details, I will help you.

  20. Hi,

    If you want to start a business on internet you should have patience and perseverance. It can take can take on to six months upon your effort. But it works. All "Click here and get a millionaire" ideas are fraud. Nothing can be achievable in the world overnight. I am on the internet from 97. I know what is for gone and what is for on. Internet is a goldmine, it is 100% true. But you have to dig it on right place. You can dig throughout your life and at last when your eyes will blurry you can go on a negative balance.

    I can give you some small tips.

    1. All internet millionaires started their earning from content rich sites. (They all now stuck with content which search engine loves.)

    So you should make a content rich site. Search yahoo and you can get lots of contents and get a free website at Yahoo geocities and blogger.

    2. Sign up with some affiliate programs which matches your contents.

    3. Mix those affiliate products with your contents.

    4. Monetize with Google Adsense or other contextual ad services from your site.

    You don't have spend a single penny or paisa to start this business.

    One must have advice: Say yourself every moment "If anyone can make their daily living from internet, I also can do it".
