Creating Your Own Opportunities With Work-from-Home Online Jobs

Just 10 years ago, people would not have taken the opportunity of working from home using online technology seriously. Although there have been plenty of excellent home-based business ideas using the Internet appearing around that time, people were hesitant and even fearful to take the plunge. Today, however, things have changed. Working from home online is now one of the most convenient ways to earn an income. It's also the best way to create your own opportunities.

Where to find work-from-home online job opportunities

There are many genuine online work-from-home opportunities. The key is finding one that is a good match to your skills and interests, offers sufficient pay and is legitimate. Some of the best sources of information for online work-from-home jobs include:

Freelancing websites

The majority of the jobs online that you can work from home with are freelance jobs or project-based. Don't be put off by this. Many of the people who now work at home began as freelancers and project contractors. After being active in the industry for a while, they now enjoy a steady stream of income as a result of building their reputations and creating a good network of contacts.

Freelancing websites offer plenty of job opportunities for those who wish to work from home online. Jobs are arranged by categories such as industry, skill or even location, making them easy to find. Although there are sites that offer this service for free, many charge a small fee. Once you've become a paying member, you'll gain access to job notices or be allowed to bid on projects.

Job websites

Many people looking for work-from-home online jobs tend to avoid the bigger job sites, thinking that they only post permanent or on-site jobs. That's unfortunate because many of these sites also post freelance or project-based jobs, perfect for working at home. Many opportunities you'll find on these sites offer good income. Obtaining multiple jobs here is quite possible and is a great way to increase your income. Getting two or three good clients will also help you avoid 'dry spells'.

Online classified ads

Craigslist is just one example of a website that posts classified ads online. You may find plenty of job opportunities here but don't just limit yourself; there are others that you can use to search for work-from-home jobs.

Company website

More and more companies are offering project-based jobs and hiring private contractors. Industries such as customer service, computer applications and repair, health, medicine and publishing are quite active in this regard. An advantage here is that although you will not be hired as an employee, you will be assured of a reliable company to work with.

To find work-from-home online jobs being offered by companies, use a search engine and the appropriate keywords or visit company websites. Many of these work-at-home job opportunities are customer service jobs where you will be handling inbound calls. A few examples of these companies include Walgreens, Virgin Atlanta and J. Crew. However, there are others that may be a good match to what you're looking for, so search carefully.

Choosing your opportunity

Much of the success in a work-from-home online opportunity is dependent on what business or job you choose. Many of the unsuccessful attempts at running a home-based business or working from home are the result of wrong choices. Here are some factors to consider:

A good match

It's important to find a work-from-home online job that fits your skills, training and interest. If you know how to do your job, you'll become more productive and excel in your results. Furthermore, you will enjoy what you do.

A job you're equipped for

The kind of equipment required to perform the work-from-home job available is also an important consideration. Since it's an online job, you'll need a reliable computer and fast internet access.

You might also want to check if there are other equipment required in order for you to perform the job. Online medical transcription jobs, for example, will require headsets and a foot pedal to control the recorded file during transcription while a virtual assistant job may call for a fax machine, a printer and a separate phone line.

A legitimate online job opportunity

Probably the most important consideration you should keep in mind is determining if the work-from-home opportunity is a real one. Some job opportunities don't deliver on their promises while others are downright scams. Others make you put in a lot of effort for very little income.

To avoid failing in work-from-home online job opportunities, make sure they are legitimate. Check company backgrounds, participate in online forums or go to websites that review online income opportunities. That way, you will be able to avoid unnecessary expense or waste your time on a home-based job opportunity that will not give you the results you're aiming for.

Finding a profitable Work From Home Online idea is a matter of trying a few and selecting the one(s) that you are comfortable with. Persistence is key in finding this online business that will provide you with the necessary income that can take you out of the rat race. Visit my site and you will find many Legitimate Home Based Businesses that you may want to consider.

The Host With the Most

You strive to produce the best meetings possible. You plan ahead, prepare, and work hard to make sure everything runs smoothly. There are many tips, ideas, and techniques that you have heard or read about to ensure a good conference, but what if there was one that ensures a unique meeting that you don't have to run yourself?

In face-to-face meetings and conference rooms, organizers have brought in guest speakers, lecturers, and MCs for a long time. The fresh face and different outlook of a professional speaker can not only greatly add to the point of the conference, but also makes it a unique experience for all attendees. Teleconferences have the same dynamic as these meetings - barring actually being there - and there's no reason that the same experience could not be brought to an audio or video conference.

Users of teleconferences may protest here by saying that they already have guest speakers and lecturers attending their meetings. While this is one of the best ways to improve a meeting, these guests are either part of the organization, an affiliate organization, or the industry. Their contributions are valid and vital, but you can take the guest aspect a step further by including a Master of Ceremonies.

A compere, or Master of Ceremonies, can really enhance your conferences. You tell them what you want, when you want it, and they take care of the rest. They can start your conference off with a bang, and keep the energy high. They can introduce you or your speakers. The compere can keep track of time and deftly cut off a speaker that has gone on too long. If there is a time gap somewhere, they can fill it with their own material, specially tailored to the occasion.

If you are having a long conference that straddles a break or even lunch, a compere is the perfect speaker for when you reconvene. After a lunch break, your participants are at their most unresponsive. It's up to the MC, not only to take the brunt of this lethargy, but to get the meeting flying again.

Towards the end of your conference, a MC will run your Q&A session, keeping it on track and on schedule. They can also wrap up the meeting with inspiring observations or witty remarks. Not only does this end your meetings on a high note, but it also gets your participants looking forward to the next meeting.

That is what a Master of Ceremonies can do for your meeting, but think of what they can do for you personally. Let's face it; even the best laid plans can have a bobble or two. If you have ever done a teleconference, you know that it sometimes takes a bit of juggling to get the conference started right while dealing with any issues that might crop up. If you have a compere working for you, they can get things moving while you are free to manage those last minute details.

Another benefit of a compere is greatly evident if you have any public speaking anxieties. They can project your professionalism and management skills, all while you are safely behind the scenes. Delicate situations arise in conferences with long-winded speakers, but the MC can help there too. They will do their best, but if the compere cannot cut them off without any hurt feelings, the situation can be blamed on the MC. You get to remain neutral while playing the diplomat and problem solver.

Looking past the advantages of hiring a professional, a Master of Ceremonies doesn't always have to be an outsider. There may be a particularly outgoing employee or member of your team that would make a perfect MC. With a little coaching and orientation, you could use your in-house compere with all of your meetings. Your conferences will become known as professionally run, if not efficient and entertaining. More importantly, they will have the same standard of quality time after time.

The use of an employee-compere doesn't have to be confined to just your meetings. As their popularity grows, the MC could be used at other company meetings and conferences, with just employees or with clients as well. Over time, your compere could become the voice of your company, not only in conferences, but also on the company voicemail or podcasts. Your logo is seen by all, but now your company can be identified by a voice-brand as well.

While it is debatable that running your own teleconference is easier than hiring out, the additional benefits of a Master of Ceremonies are pretty plain. Your meetings can improve and there could be a bonus to your company as a whole.

Investor Psychology

2008 saw a lot of stunning, almost apocalyptic events. People ask, "What else could possibly go wrong?" The prevailing view seems to be that the economy will get worse before it gets better. As we look out on the year ahead, it is easy to conclude that there are only storm clouds on the economic horizon. So, what are we to think when people start interpreting bad news as good?

A person I recently had coffee with remarked, "The best news I've heard lately is that the recession started a year ago." Her point was that we might already be at least halfway through the downturn. While it may be a bit early for outright optimism, I see several positives that could benefit investors in the year ahead. These are the incoming Obama administration, the lessons learned from past market catastrophes, and the prevailing negative psychology of investors. The last point refers to the notion that once everyone expects bad news, it can actually be good for the markets.

Though November now seems like a long time ago, I still recall the feelings of hope and elation people had following the election of Barack Obama. His victory felt like the first step into a more promising future while also marking a decisive conclusion to the last few dismal years. Regardless of individual political persuasions, optimism for the future is important. It gives us reason to keep going in the face of difficulty.

The incoming administration will be one of the best prepared in memory and will be quick to introduce legislation. Mr. Obama's economic stimulus package will likely approach one trillion dollars. Sometimes large numbers can lose their significance, but I can tell you, a one with 12 zeros after it is big!

We can also take comfort in the fact that the federal government and central banks have gained insights from the Great Depression and from the painfully slow unwinding of Japan's real estate bubble. Though each of these periods in history has its own unique set of circumstances, two points seem salient. Actions required to adequately address problems of such magnitude should be swift and substantial. Thus far, the actions of the world's central banks and governments indicate that they understand this.

When trying to predict what may happen tomorrow or next week people tend to extrapolate from current circumstances. So, as we experience a bad economy we expect it to continue to be that way. Today the consensus view is that the economy and markets will get worse before they get better. Here is where investor psychology comes into play; once a majority of people believes something to be true, it is only a matter of time until the pendulum of opinion swings back in the other direction.

Think about investing in technology stocks back in the year 2000. Almost everyone believed that technology was going to radically change our lives, so we had to be invested there. The ensuing two years witnessed an almost 80 percent drop in the NASDAQ index. Or, more recently we saw consensus form around the idea that you couldn't lose money investing in real estate. We all know now that is not true.

Financial markets are a reflection of expectations about how things will be. They anticipate changes. At some point stocks will stop going down, and in fact will start to rise even in the face of bad news. Just as we are getting more depressed about increasing unemployment numbers and bankruptcy filings, the markets will be sniffing out the beginning of better times ahead.Most people are convinced that 2009 will be bad. As the preponderance of investors accept this as truth the pendulum of belief will begin to swing back in the other direction. New information, like improvements in the housing market for example, will hasten the process.

We have an incoming administration that is ready to act boldly, with the benefit of lessons learned from past crises. While the daily headlines may continue to be discouraging, the markets will eventually anticipate better times ahead. There is hope and potential for positive surprises in the year ahead.

Make Money Online Publishing Articles is Easy

Since I quit my job, back in 2001, to make money online I have been learning and writing articles. I haven't always gotten it right but I never gave up, like a few friends have done over the years. If it's not easier than working some people just don't want to be bothered and making money online is always as easy as it seems when other write about it, is it.

Writing articles and getting them published on the many article directories is a great way to make money online if you do it correctly. To make this strategy really work for you there are some things you can do.

1. Be sure you know your topic.

I have tried in the past to fake it till you make it but that didn't work. It seems that when I talk about things I don't know enough about I just look like someone that doesn't know what he's talking about but when I stick to a topic I know, like fly fishing, I get results that end in making money.

2. Be unique and thrive.

It's so easy to just copy others and I don't see any thing wrong with that. I learn from others daily. The key is to learn from others but make what you do unique by giving your very own perspective.

I have watched others that succeed online and I learn what I can from them but the goal is to catch them and even pass them in the search engine ranking but copying them won't do it. You need to be unique and then go the extra mile to do more, the search engines will reward you for your hard work.

3. Don't stop with just one article directory.

I don't use a lot of article directories these days as I have my favorites but there are a lot of them. Don't be afraid to use them.

That brings me back to the point about being unique. If you publish the same article in every article directory you use you won't get near the results you will get if you take the time to spin your main article into multiple unique articles.

4. Publish your main article in EzineArticles.com first.

In my opinion my favorite place to publish articles to make more money online is through EzineArticles.com but they are also the strictest one that I use and they won't publish duplicate content.

I write my article and once I am satisfied with it I publish it on EzineArticles. Once it has been accepted I am good to go publishing on other article directories.

I then take my main article and re-write it into as many unique articles as I need for the other article directories.

To make the articles work best I try to modify the content at least 30% or more, the more the betters.

NOTE: Getting my articles published on EzineArticles.com usually takes 2 days, so I have lots of time to work at making my other articles unique.

5. Make your link count.

I write articles but where I publish them I am not allowed to use affiliate links so instead I create posts on my blogs that are relevant and link to the affiliate programs there. I then link to my post page on my blog from my article signature.

Friends, it's just that easy.

You can make money online writing and publishing your articles on article directories. I blog about my hobbies to make a living online and you can do the same thing just be sure you choose the hobbies you actually spend money on.

No Fee Work at Home Jobs and the Easy Way to Find Them

I am always surprised that work at home websites can make good money by demanding job seekers pay up front money for no fee work at home job leads. We live in a free economy so, I understand why some sites do it. The fact of the matter is that a lot of effort is needed to go through thousands of job boards and web sites to find no fee work from home jobs.

You probably already know this but the big job sites such as Monster.com and Careerbuilder are not specialized in no fee work from home jobs. The at home jobs listed there are usually mixed in with regular jobs and the thousands of home based business opportunities which tend to require a fee.

It can take two life times just to filter through all the junk to locate just one free work at home job lead. And it will take just as much time to find the next lead. I know what you are thinking he must be a mind reader. As a result, you have found my article.

Trust me I feel your pain and have been to hell and back with that process But I do have a solution for you. When searching big non work at home specialized websites, the first thing you need to know is what keywords to use in the search box.

So let's break down the keywords to avoid. Do not type in the following keywords:

Work At Home

Work From Home

Work At Home Jobs

Work From Home Jobs

Work At Home Job

Work From Home Job

Work At Home Opportunity

Work from Home Opportunity

Work At Home Opportunities

Work From Opportunities

Do you see the pattern here? I know it does not make sense. But the problem is many of the shady people as well as legitimate home based business opportunity providers use these keywords. Obviously you want to avoid the scam artist, there isn't an explanation that needs to be provided for that. Legitimate home based business opportunities are fine but in my experience some of you prefer to be employees rather than owning a business where you could make significantly more money. I'm not knocking you, but the fact of the matter is you are more likely to earn way more money with your own home based business. But I digress. Here are the key words you want to use for your search in the major job sites:

telecommuting

telecommute

telecommuter

telework

teleworking

virtual

virtual employee

virtual company

virtual office

working virtually

remote work

remote contractor

outsourcing opportunity

freelance

freelance jobs

independent contractor

off-site

These keywords should filter through the "junk" results. You may want to search using quotation marks around the keywords to refine down the list even further.

Well that's all folks, a simple way to find no fee work at home job at the big job sites. It's a start but personally you may be better off letting other work at home websites do the dirty work for you.

Work At Home No Scams.com already compiles a list of no fee work at home jobs. Be sure to save yourself the headaches and find your work at home jobs now.

Affiliate Marketing

Selling is one of the best ways to generate income. It is also one of the ways people do not like to work as to make money.

How to Make Money - Hedge Funds?

If you really wanted to know how to make money, you might have talked with hedge fund managers and / or ponzi scheme organizers. It seems these two have too much in common according to the news. Thank goodness that the financial crisis and recession has laid most of these guys to rest and I would never suggest you get involved - although the money is pretty good!

Let's define what a ponzi is. Basically, a ponzi scheme (named after its clever inventor) is a scam where enormous profits are promised and the greedy get their claws into it to invest. There is no productive effort behind the promised profits, because the next in line investors are sucked in to provide the "profits" for the suckers who came in earlier. Nice move. The only downside is that it may lead to a lot of free lunches at the government's hotels (also known as jails). Who said there's no such thing as a free lunch?

With that in mind there's not much point in looking at the upside, is there?

Hedge funds were doing gangbuster for quite a few years. These are the guys who play Las Vegas with other people's shares. Not much room for us there.

Las Vegas brings the idea of trying to make money at the casinos. No joke. Some poor (no pun intended) individuals actually go to these places feeding the insane illusion that they're going to come out on top! Money make fast? You laugh - it's tragic - especially when you see the obscene profits casinos make. I wonder if there is some connection between extreme profit, making piles of fast money, and the Mafia!? Pause for thought.

Let's try horse racing, or even dog racing. Maybe not! You know what - this whole line of thought isn't going to get us anywhere at all, is it? Luck is not where it's at. You only get luckier when you work harder and smarter. Period!

Luck!? You only get luckier when you work harder and smarter.

Let's get back to reality - put our feet firmly on the ground and look for something that really does work. If you want to find out how to start your own business, you need to follow a system. An ideal system should be somewhat like a franchise in that you get all the training resources you need - step-by-step. It should be cheap, accessible, and easy to start. Although the profit potential should be high, there should be no franchise type of monthly fee. As always in life, you must be willing to do the initial work. Not good if you're lazy. If you were lazy, you wouldn't have read this far!

There are a few, but very few, systems which fit the above criteria like a glove. This is time to start a new type of business, if you want to stay home, and are fed up with your work, and three jobs!

The ideal business should have built in potential to make you serious money long term and provide residual or passive income for years to come. Remember how artists get paid. They do a good job once, and then get paid royalty year in and year out for ever.

If you're serious about a better future for you and your loved ones, then you can learn how to make money on the internet. The internet is where it's all happening. Hedge your bets and get into a Plan B - a Better way!

If you want to fight back, eliminate debt, and find financial freedom then this is the place to be.

Art Singapore Can Make Money For You

Art Singapore has been held in Singapore since 2000 annually and is being held in the last quarter of the year, usually in October. It is successful because it is not only being held annually; the size of the exhibition actually increases.

From this, we know that the interest has been on the increase, but why is that so? Did the Singapore government really do such a good job promoting art that more people are starting to appreciate it.

The truth is, Singaporeans are very practical folks. In a society, where everything is about dollars and cents and every action must have a profitable reaction, there is bound to be some profitable reason for so many Singaporeans to be interested in it.

And the reason is of course the high returns that art is able to provide as an investment vehicle. Basically, when you invest in this, you are investing in the growth of the artist.

The value of your investment is in tandem to the fame of the artist. As he or she grows in reputation, so would the pieces that you have bought. And as Asia, especially South East Asia is a growing area; it is relatively easy to become famous in this region.

Collectors that purchased collections in earlier event held in Singapore, reported few thousands percentage returns. For example, a painting that is purchased for $800 in 2001 can be sold for $10000 in any auction house or galleries.

So, if you have some spare cash and is looking for another investment vehicle, this is one form that is definitely worth considering. Of course, October is a long time and if you want a preview of art in Singapore, there is another platform.

There is a Singapore Art tour organized by the Singapore explorer that would bring you to the different galleries and they have dedicated curator explaining to you the story and of the potential value of each pieces.

There you have it folks, if you are looking for an alternative investment, this is really something worth considering, don't you think so?

Make Money Online Publishing Articles is Easy

Since I quit my job, back in 2001, to make money online I have been learning and writing articles. I haven't always gotten it right but I never gave up, like a few friends have done over the years. If it's not easier than working some people just don't want to be bothered and making money online is always as easy as it seems when other write about it, is it.

Writing articles and getting them published on the many article directories is a great way to make money online if you do it correctly. To make this strategy really work for you there are some things you can do.

1. Be sure you know your topic.

I have tried in the past to fake it till you make it but that didn't work. It seems that when I talk about things I don't know enough about I just look like someone that doesn't know what he's talking about but when I stick to a topic I know, like fly fishing, I get results that end in making money.

2. Be unique and thrive.

It's so easy to just copy others and I don't see any thing wrong with that. I learn from others daily. The key is to learn from others but make what you do unique by giving your very own perspective.

I have watched others that succeed online and I learn what I can from them but the goal is to catch them and even pass them in the search engine ranking but copying them won't do it. You need to be unique and then go the extra mile to do more, the search engines will reward you for your hard work.

3. Don't stop with just one article directory.

I don't use a lot of article directories these days as I have my favorites but there are a lot of them. Don't be afraid to use them.

That brings me back to the point about being unique. If you publish the same article in every article directory you use you won't get near the results you will get if you take the time to spin your main article into multiple unique articles.

4. Publish your main article in EzineArticles.com first.

In my opinion my favorite place to publish articles to make more money online is through EzineArticles.com but they are also the strictest one that I use and they won't publish duplicate content.

I write my article and once I am satisfied with it I publish it on EzineArticles. Once it has been accepted I am good to go publishing on other article directories.

I then take my main article and re-write it into as many unique articles as I need for the other article directories.

To make the articles work best I try to modify the content at least 30% or more, the more the betters.

NOTE: Getting my articles published on EzineArticles.com usually takes 2 days, so I have lots of time to work at making my other articles unique.

5. Make your link count.

I write articles but where I publish them I am not allowed to use affiliate links so instead I create posts on my blogs that are relevant and link to the affiliate programs there. I then link to my post page on my blog from my article signature.

Friends, it's just that easy.

You can make money online writing and publishing your articles on article directories. I blog about my hobbies to make a living online and you can do the same thing just be sure you choose the hobbies you actually spend money on.

Your Wealth is in Danger

Nope.

It's not politicians.

Or taxes.

It's not your environment, your family, or your job.

It's not.

"Mike, you're wrong on this one, what is it?"

Amigo, move in a bit closer.

Maybe people will resist the answer.

They will. I can't do anything about that though.

Move in a bit more.

I'll whisper it in case it upsets you.

(SELFISHNESS)

"What?"

I'll say it louder.

***SELFISHNESS

Your SELFISHNESS is your greatest THREAT to your wealth.

I know this first hand because it bit me too. (Ouch)

Every day, I speak to people who are so SELF ABSORBED in their own fears, doubts, and worries that they BURY their talent and leave thousands of people starving for their God given gifts.

The INWARD MIND can't get rich.

It's impossible to create TRUE, GENUINE, and LONG TERM wealth this way.

Start with Proverbs, head towards Orison Swett Marden, drive towards Wallace Wattles, say hello to Napoleon Hill; they're all saying the SAME thing.

***What precedes REAL WEALTH is REAL SERVICE.

Sow sparingly, you reap sparingly. This is one of the secrets of the ages. You know this.

Put your past hurts behind you and START thinking OUTWARD.

Start thinking about who you can encourage today, bless today, and be a friend to.

Do you know what we call people who don't plant any SUCCESS SEEDS?

We call them employees who hate their jobs.

Stop being so impatient and start planting thoughts and seeds of success.

There can be no HARVEST where there's not first SERVICE.

Read this 2 times. Scratch that.

Read this 5 times, at least.

***Become OBSESSIONAL about rendering USEFUL service and today will be the poorest day of the rest of your life.

Many people say, "I'm unselfish", but if they look closer they're not as unselfish as they think.

Let me end with this one more time.

***Become OBSESSIONAL about rendering USEFUL service and today will be the poorest day of the rest of your life.

Just a Little Motivation For Business

First of all let me say that every business owner out there feels down in the dumps at times. So do not think for a second that you are the only one because you are not. How do you think business owners feel when they must close down, which happens over 90% of the time. But you want to separate yourself from them and be in the other 10%. Well if you do then it takes work and action on your part. Of course it will not be that easy. But you keep fighting to make your money that is yours. Everybody wants to get there cut so they must succeed and that is what competition is.

One big dream killer is the fact that so many people believe they should be rich after doing internet marketing for only a few months. Most likely caused by sales pages and millionaires claiming that you will be rich after going through their program. Such garbage is not the case in reality. It takes years to become financially free unless you have a very unbelievable idea and put it to action immediately. But odds are that will not happen. So if things are really bad for you now as oppose to before do not worry. As long as you keep working at it great things will happen. Things will always get worse before they get better. I mean that is just nature. So sales are not at their peak, BIG DEAL. Just keep your eyes on the prize meaning a big fat bag of cash.

Also nobody gets rich overnight. Nobody is that lucky! Luck comes from working hard. You make your own luck by working hard. The harder you work, the more luck will come your way. Once again that is nature. It is incredible what people are capable of when they have an attitude that can not die. Just work on your attitude. Get it through your head that anything is possible and people do become very successful. I believe the greatest success happens when somebody makes a lot of money by doing something they absolutely love doing. There is a difference between a job and work. A job is more like something you would rather not do, but should get done if you do not want problems in the future. While work is anything that you use your energy on. It could be having a hobby like playing guitar, that requires energy and can be very fun. Anyway just keep working hard and know what you are doing. Then success will come and the harder you work the, sweeter success will feel.

Easy Ways to Make Money, is it Really Possible

I've discovered many different ways to easy ways to make money but it seems so far and distant for so many because they determine easy differently than I do. I determine it as making money and enjoying the way you make your money where as most will determine it as quick, fast and a lazy way. Let me tell you if it was that easy then everybody would have lots of money and maybe it would start growing on trees just to make it even easier.

Well for sure money is never going to grow on trees so it's time you changed your thinking and started realising that easy is not possible but enjoying the way you make the money is easier than not enjoying because after all everything feels much more like easy when you're enjoying yourself. It's like when time flies because you've been enjoying yourself, the exact same applies to an easy way to make money.

Here today you now see differently, I hope. This is where I changed my life for the better and I do know of lots of different ways to make money by enjoying yourself so listen up!

A number one way to make money that proves to be easy is to make money online. Now this sounds interesting to you and almost everyone all over the world because it means you get to sit in the comfort of your own home, decide you own hours and decide when you take a break, giving you absolute freedom to work as you please as long as you know you are taking a regular income into your own home.

This technique is similar to being your own boss because being your own boss is another easy way to make money and knowing that you are in full control is always more fun than being ordered and told what to do.

I always hated my bosses in fact there's not one of my bosses that I have ever clicked with, mainly the reason I now work for myself. Now I feel I'm on top of one the easy ways to make money.

There's another great way to make money and that is a home business especially one that is already prepared for you like the ones you usually see advertised all over the internet and including your local newspapers. These opportunities always seem so far out of your reach because you never get a full understanding of what they are and how they can be of use to you.

So let's try understanding them a little bit by letting you know that most if not all, usually involve a form of networking. This means that you solely are not the only employee in your home business but it is up to you to build the recruit the employees and as many hard workers as possible because they are the base of your future income. This is home businesses summed up for you so that you know why they work for some and not for others, mainly because most feel that it needs to be an easy way to make money when really there are no easy ways, just a more enjoyable way.

So the next time that thought comes into your head about making it easy, please remember, something more enjoyable like working from home proves to be easier because time flies when you're having fun. I know and you now know there is an easy way and that's the enjoyable way!

As for all these different methods, I recommend you do your research before jumping in head first because there are a lot of nasty people out there who have no care in the world for anyone else and they will lead you far astray than you've ever been before.

These tips have been written off the top of my head and only to show you that I do know the truth and that is there is no money growing on trees so you now need to take a step in the right direction and start caring for yourself more and understanding all these different ways. I have no problem with how I make my money and neither should you.

Can You Make Money From the Internet?

Can you make money on the internet? Well the simple answer to that is yes you can, easily in fact. The problem is that the difference between making money and making enough money to make it worthwhile is huge. I recently put up an Autoblog website about films. I put on AdSense and some links to eBay and Amazon. Now I do nothing with the site and it earns me a small amount of money for every person that clicks on an advert. How much? Well it has currently paid me around $1 since I set it up around 3 months ago. So that's not exactly going to set the world on fire is it? I guess I could go mad and create another 1000 websites, but with the cost of domains and hosting even at that rate I would be losing money by the end of the year. I have to admit I am only letting the website run on autopilot for the moment until it has some decent rankings in the search engines, once it has that I can think about trying to monetize it more.

So how can you make effective money from the internet? Well you have to employ a series of strategies to spread your risk. For example I have a poker blog which earns a nice income from adverts from two advert suppliers. One of them recently changed its terms and conditions to no longer accept gambling related adverts. If the only thing I concentrated on was poker or gambling related sites, I could well have been looking at a substantial cut in income. So here are a few of the things I do to earn money on the internet.

  • Adverts from websites.
  • Posts from websites.
  • AdSense.
  • eBay and Amazon links.
  • Affiliate marketing.
  • Article marketing.

I hope this article has helped you think of some of the ways to earn money, but beware there are a huge amount of ebooks out there which promise to help you earn money on the internet, but don't always deliver the goods. Do your research before you buy anything!

Money from the internet is a definite possibility; the market which is worth billions each year is growing at a phenomenal rate. If it interests you can you afford to be left behind? You could earn a stand alone income or some extra money each month for those extras. More hints and tips to get you started can be found on my internet money tips page.

Investor Psychology

2008 saw a lot of stunning, almost apocalyptic events. People ask, "What else could possibly go wrong?" The prevailing view seems to be that the economy will get worse before it gets better. As we look out on the year ahead, it is easy to conclude that there are only storm clouds on the economic horizon. So, what are we to think when people start interpreting bad news as good?

A person I recently had coffee with remarked, "The best news I've heard lately is that the recession started a year ago." Her point was that we might already be at least halfway through the downturn. While it may be a bit early for outright optimism, I see several positives that could benefit investors in the year ahead. These are the incoming Obama administration, the lessons learned from past market catastrophes, and the prevailing negative psychology of investors. The last point refers to the notion that once everyone expects bad news, it can actually be good for the markets.

Though November now seems like a long time ago, I still recall the feelings of hope and elation people had following the election of Barack Obama. His victory felt like the first step into a more promising future while also marking a decisive conclusion to the last few dismal years. Regardless of individual political persuasions, optimism for the future is important. It gives us reason to keep going in the face of difficulty.

The incoming administration will be one of the best prepared in memory and will be quick to introduce legislation. Mr. Obama's economic stimulus package will likely approach one trillion dollars. Sometimes large numbers can lose their significance, but I can tell you, a one with 12 zeros after it is big!

We can also take comfort in the fact that the federal government and central banks have gained insights from the Great Depression and from the painfully slow unwinding of Japan's real estate bubble. Though each of these periods in history has its own unique set of circumstances, two points seem salient. Actions required to adequately address problems of such magnitude should be swift and substantial. Thus far, the actions of the world's central banks and governments indicate that they understand this.

When trying to predict what may happen tomorrow or next week people tend to extrapolate from current circumstances. So, as we experience a bad economy we expect it to continue to be that way. Today the consensus view is that the economy and markets will get worse before they get better. Here is where investor psychology comes into play; once a majority of people believes something to be true, it is only a matter of time until the pendulum of opinion swings back in the other direction.

Think about investing in technology stocks back in the year 2000. Almost everyone believed that technology was going to radically change our lives, so we had to be invested there. The ensuing two years witnessed an almost 80 percent drop in the NASDAQ index. Or, more recently we saw consensus form around the idea that you couldn't lose money investing in real estate. We all know now that is not true.

Financial markets are a reflection of expectations about how things will be. They anticipate changes. At some point stocks will stop going down, and in fact will start to rise even in the face of bad news. Just as we are getting more depressed about increasing unemployment numbers and bankruptcy filings, the markets will be sniffing out the beginning of better times ahead.Most people are convinced that 2009 will be bad. As the preponderance of investors accept this as truth the pendulum of belief will begin to swing back in the other direction. New information, like improvements in the housing market for example, will hasten the process.

We have an incoming administration that is ready to act boldly, with the benefit of lessons learned from past crises. While the daily headlines may continue to be discouraging, the markets will eventually anticipate better times ahead. There is hope and potential for positive surprises in the year ahead.

What an Olympic Champion Taught Me

Several years ago, I was training at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado. During my early morning work-out I noticed this guy squat-walking around the track with a tire full of sand or something around his neck. It was obviously very heavy.

Can You Squat-Walk?

I did not know who the guy was or what he did as an athlete. Finally, one day at lunch I happened to be sitting across the table from him. I introduced myself. His name was Eric. I said, "I see you doing the squat-walking every morning. That's incredible. What sport do you do?" And he said, "I'm a skater, you know, a speed skater." Eric seemed to be a very unassuming person.

The Conversation That Changed My Life

We were both young guys in our early 20s. We met a few more times at lunch and one day I asked him, "How're the Winter Olympics going to be looking for you?" And he said, "I'm doing well. My training is going well." I asked, "How are you going to do?" And he said, without a trace of ego or arrogance, "I think I'm going to win five gold medals." And I'm thinking, "5 gold medals! He's a crazy man!"

So I Asked ---

So I followed up by asking why he thought he would win five gold medals. His answer changed my life. It was:

"Because I train harder than anyone else in the world."

I look at his answer as giving himself a rational reason for the irrational belief that he could win five gold medals. Therefore, as long as he continued training harder, he'd be giving himself permission to believe he could win.

I also asked him about his competition in the various events. He told me something else that rocked me. He said:

"The competition is with myself."

Eric only competed with himself. With his goals. With his physical capacity. The "competition" did not exist in his world.

For those of us who are old enough to know, Eric Heiden went out and he did win five Olympic Gold Medals in the 1980 Winter Olympics and while doing this he set Olympic and world records.

Big learning here...

Your WHY Is More Important Than Your What.

Eric linked himself to the outrageous goal of five gold medals. How?

Gold Medals = Working Harder Than Anyone Else = Eric Heiden's Belief

When you believe that it's possible, and give yourself a rational reason to believe it's possible, and you work like your hair is on fire --- then... IT IS POSSIBLE!

Difference Between Success and Failure

I'd like to have a dollar for every "get rich quick and life long income" adds I've seen on the internet telling people they can make tons of moneywith aninternet business or marketing, allyou have to do is follow these simple direction. What if we tell the truth about it? That no matter how easy the plan is and even if you have the money for the start up cost, you may not find success or even get a dime out of your business.

Why is that, you may ask? Because it takes more than what most people have in them to find success. What I'm talking about is dedication and motivation to do every thing in your power to promotetheirbusiness. I'm not telling you to spend all of your money on it, butwhat I'm saying is you have to believe in what you're doing. To have the drive and the passion where you will not lose interest and stop in just a short time.

You see building a successful marketing system or business does not come over night, it takes time to grow, to become visible on the internet and the search engine, where people will see your adds over and over again. Even if your product is something that every one wants. You must remember, you are competing with so many others on the net selling the same thing as you are. So what makes you so unique?is it your advertising or maybe it's how you advertise? Spending time working the internet, placing your add every where you can find to place it? Spending long nights thinking of ways to bring more traffic to your site and always thinking, looking and finding something new to promote your business with?

There are no sure things on the internet that will make you successful, no matter how great of a system or product you have.in the end, it's all up to you, but if you have these three simple elements; dedication, motivation and drive, then you're much closer to finding success than a lot of people out there andyou can't buy these qualities. You have to reach down deep in yourself and find them, thenjust maybe, you will find success as well. Just remember, you only fail when you don't learn from your mistakes.

What is an Opt-In Email and How to Profit From It!

First of all, there needs to be a clear understanding of what an opt in email is for in any "for profit" industry? An opt-in email is nothing more than an opportunity for a person to subscribe to another marketer's special list of subscribers in order to acquire information regarding the topic of interest of the subscriber. A person subscribes and then a marketer sends personalized information to the confirmed subscriber.

Unlike SPAM that is mail sent massively to everyone, an opt-in email results in a person who has confirmed an interest in specific information and has, therefore, granted permission to receive information to his personal email address. These range from information books to newsletters to promotional offers. It is a very popular tool of marketing and an effective one.

But how can a newcomer profit from such a list? What does he or she need to do in order to achieve success with such a powerful marketing tool on the Internet? Anyone can start an opt-in email service by providing value to their market. The things you need are not as important as the steps you need to have taken before even starting to subscribe people to your opt in service.

Before starting such schedules of acquiring a confirmed list of subscribers, start by knowing exactly what your particular market wants and needs. What excited them more, what usually makes them feel better or would make them feel better? Knowing such information from the inside out should help you not only target the right information to your subscriber, it can help you build a strong database of consistent permanent subscribers.

One of the examples you may elect to follow is simple enough for anyone to consider. Build a website where you have an opt-in page with some irresistible information. This usually is what your market will get excited about knowing for free that they usually don't get anywhere else or where others pay hundreds of dollars for such information.

Get them double opt-in confirmed so you have less spamming issues in the long term. Yes, no matter how many times they are confirmed, there are those who will probably forget what they did 24hrs before. Once you've taken such steps, immediately send an email with the information promised in the landing page from your index page; this is also known as your squeeze page delivery.

Once they have received the information, send them more valuable information that according to your market diligence, your opt-in subscribers would desire. The combination of more valuable information and an instant survey would do great at such point. Build rapport by asking your subscribers what they liked from the first delivery and what they would love to receive, while promising an immediate video download or expanded information on their initial desire from your landing page.

Once you are at this stage, you are building a relationship and bond with your subscriber. This not only will help you gain business friends, loyal fans, and ultimately provide you the security and freedom most people desire, but will keep you growing as a leader in your market upon doing it consistently.

You can build such an opt in list of subscribers slowly or rapidly, by scratch or by buying a confirmed list of subscribers from successful marketing leading companies whose sole purpose is to resale opt in email addresses.

Health and Wealth

We all know that good health can positively affect us both physically and emotionally. But it can also have an impact in our financial well-being. In fact, studies have shown that healthy people are able to work more and be more productive, thus being more likely to be successful. Healthy people also tend to be happier and more confident in themselves, which can also breed success. Good health brings a positive outlook and, hopefully, good fortune. Investing in your health is well worth it. Here are a few simple tips to a healthier and wealthier life:

1.Utilize preventative medicine and tests to determine health risks early, and fend off future health and financial burdens. Recommended tests include body mass index, blood pressure check, gynecological exam, and physical exam.

2.Men and women over age 40 and 50, respectively, should talk to a doctor about taking a daily dose of aspirin to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. It can cost as low as 10 cents a day.

3.Flossing helps to prevent gum disease, which can add 21% more to your healthcare costs than someone with healthy gums.

4.Try to get 7-9 hours of sleep every night, and try to develop a routine of going to bed and waking up at the same time every day. Lack of sleep increases your risk of high blood pressure, diabetes, and obesity. You're also less likely to catch a cold if you get more sleep.

5.Exercise for 30 minutes a day to reduce risks of obesity, cancer, stroke, diabetes, and many other illnesses. Even a brisk walk or a jog can help.

6.Quit smoking to save up to $5 a day and live long enough to see retirement.

Just as your health can affect your financial life, so can your financial problems affect your health. When you've got less money, you're more likely to think about your personal finances than your health and fitness. Stress and depression can occur in tough financial times, making it hard to get motivated. Situations like these make it all the more important to stay active, healthy, and in a positive frame of mind to dig yourself out of financial hardship. A healthy diet, home workouts, and running/jogging are excellent and affordable ways to stay in shape. Some healthy choices will cost you, like better food or a gym membership. If you choose to spend in those areas, try to reduce spending on other frivolous or unhealthy habits. This way, you can invest in your health and wealth at the same time.

Before starting any health and exercise regimen, you should consult your physician.

How to Make Money on Your Home

Making money on your home is key to many of you. My clients report that they simply would not consider owning a home that they did not make some profit on. The thought of taking a check to closing is repulsive. Here is what I want you to know about making money on your home.

The obvious things about home ownership that make you money...

  • The whole time that you live in a home, if it is your primary residence, you are saving on your taxes. In other words, you can either use your money to pay for a place to call your own that you are buying, or you can pay more taxes.
  • The home ownership experience lends itself to your higher self-esteem. Self-esteem will lead you to making more money in all aspects of your life.
  • The home gives you a place to do all of your handyman experiences on your own dime with your own result of profit, or not.
  • As your mortgage payments are made over the years, your equity stake in the investment in your home, in most cases, will rise and your debt will fall.

But, on to how to make money on your home...

  • Keep your home maintained the whole time that you live there.
  • Keep your home clean and especially clean it well when you are selling it. Clean homes make 3 to 4% more money than dirty homes.
  • Market your home at a high price instead of what your naive neighbors or low-balling agent of the neighborhood recommends. Go with your gut and go high. You will never get a high price if you don't ask for it.
  • Sell your home with a listing company that has low listing commission fees. Most homeowner's profit is used up in selling commissions. You now have alternatives.
  • Sell your home Staged and maybe throw in some furniture.
  • Get every tool available to make your home look its best on the internet. Virtual tours, Staging, Videos and anything else that you can find. The first showing to potential buyers is on the internet. By the time that the buyer comes to your home in person, it is really the second showing.
  • Offer a home warranty in lieu of some of the inspection items. If this is not enough for the buyer, tell them that you will give them 5 service call deductibles to cover future costs.

To make a good deal on the sale of your home, it is imperative to make a good deal when buying it. Use an experienced agent to help you buy. They are a valued resource and cost you nothing. In fact, in my company we split out our commission with our buyer clients for helping us find them the home.

Make Money Online Publishing Articles is Easy

Since I quit my job, back in 2001, to make money online I have been learning and writing articles. I haven't always gotten it right but I never gave up, like a few friends have done over the years. If it's not easier than working some people just don't want to be bothered and making money online is always as easy as it seems when other write about it, is it.

Writing articles and getting them published on the many article directories is a great way to make money online if you do it correctly. To make this strategy really work for you there are some things you can do.

1. Be sure you know your topic.

I have tried in the past to fake it till you make it but that didn't work. It seems that when I talk about things I don't know enough about I just look like someone that doesn't know what he's talking about but when I stick to a topic I know, like fly fishing, I get results that end in making money.

2. Be unique and thrive.

It's so easy to just copy others and I don't see any thing wrong with that. I learn from others daily. The key is to learn from others but make what you do unique by giving your very own perspective.

I have watched others that succeed online and I learn what I can from them but the goal is to catch them and even pass them in the search engine ranking but copying them won't do it. You need to be unique and then go the extra mile to do more, the search engines will reward you for your hard work.

3. Don't stop with just one article directory.

I don't use a lot of article directories these days as I have my favorites but there are a lot of them. Don't be afraid to use them.

That brings me back to the point about being unique. If you publish the same article in every article directory you use you won't get near the results you will get if you take the time to spin your main article into multiple unique articles.

4. Publish your main article in EzineArticles.com first.

In my opinion my favorite place to publish articles to make more money online is through EzineArticles.com but they are also the strictest one that I use and they won't publish duplicate content.

I write my article and once I am satisfied with it I publish it on EzineArticles. Once it has been accepted I am good to go publishing on other article directories.

I then take my main article and re-write it into as many unique articles as I need for the other article directories.

To make the articles work best I try to modify the content at least 30% or more, the more the betters.

NOTE: Getting my articles published on EzineArticles.com usually takes 2 days, so I have lots of time to work at making my other articles unique.

5. Make your link count.

I write articles but where I publish them I am not allowed to use affiliate links so instead I create posts on my blogs that are relevant and link to the affiliate programs there. I then link to my post page on my blog from my article signature.

Friends, it's just that easy.

You can make money online writing and publishing your articles on article directories. I blog about my hobbies to make a living online and you can do the same thing just be sure you choose the hobbies you actually spend money on.

Easy Ways to Make Money, is it Really Possible

I've discovered many different ways to easy ways to make money but it seems so far and distant for so many because they determine easy differently than I do. I determine it as making money and enjoying the way you make your money where as most will determine it as quick, fast and a lazy way. Let me tell you if it was that easy then everybody would have lots of money and maybe it would start growing on trees just to make it even easier.

Well for sure money is never going to grow on trees so it's time you changed your thinking and started realising that easy is not possible but enjoying the way you make the money is easier than not enjoying because after all everything feels much more like easy when you're enjoying yourself. It's like when time flies because you've been enjoying yourself, the exact same applies to an easy way to make money.

Here today you now see differently, I hope. This is where I changed my life for the better and I do know of lots of different ways to make money by enjoying yourself so listen up!

A number one way to make money that proves to be easy is to make money online. Now this sounds interesting to you and almost everyone all over the world because it means you get to sit in the comfort of your own home, decide you own hours and decide when you take a break, giving you absolute freedom to work as you please as long as you know you are taking a regular income into your own home.

This technique is similar to being your own boss because being your own boss is another easy way to make money and knowing that you are in full control is always more fun than being ordered and told what to do.

I always hated my bosses in fact there's not one of my bosses that I have ever clicked with, mainly the reason I now work for myself. Now I feel I'm on top of one the easy ways to make money.

There's another great way to make money and that is a home business especially one that is already prepared for you like the ones you usually see advertised all over the internet and including your local newspapers. These opportunities always seem so far out of your reach because you never get a full understanding of what they are and how they can be of use to you.

So let's try understanding them a little bit by letting you know that most if not all, usually involve a form of networking. This means that you solely are not the only employee in your home business but it is up to you to build the recruit the employees and as many hard workers as possible because they are the base of your future income. This is home businesses summed up for you so that you know why they work for some and not for others, mainly because most feel that it needs to be an easy way to make money when really there are no easy ways, just a more enjoyable way.

So the next time that thought comes into your head about making it easy, please remember, something more enjoyable like working from home proves to be easier because time flies when you're having fun. I know and you now know there is an easy way and that's the enjoyable way!

As for all these different methods, I recommend you do your research before jumping in head first because there are a lot of nasty people out there who have no care in the world for anyone else and they will lead you far astray than you've ever been before.

These tips have been written off the top of my head and only to show you that I do know the truth and that is there is no money growing on trees so you now need to take a step in the right direction and start caring for yourself more and understanding all these different ways. I have no problem with how I make my money and neither should you.

How to Achieve Financial Freedom With a Powerful Goal

Some of the most popular search terms on Google are about money and how to get it, often in a short amount of time. At some point in most of our lives we need or want more of it. But if financial freedom is our goal, just how do we make this work for us? How do we motivate ourselves to have the money that we want?

Most coaches and self-help books will teach you that goals need to be specific, measurable, realistic and time-based. This seems easy when it comes to money; we just state exactly how much we want (for example, a yearly or monthly income), how we're going to achieve it and by when we want to have it.

But just how powerful is the goal of a specific income? Is the achievement of money a goal in itself, or is there a more powerful goal we could use to pull ourselves forwards to financial freedom?

A large number of people searching on Google use the term, "I want money". There's nothing wrong with that, but when people start saying "All I want is money", I get a little dubious.

I don't know about you, but the idea of acquiring large amounts of pieces of coloured paper, or black figures on a bank statement does not really inspire me. Not as an ultimate goal.

What we tend to forget is that money itself is not the true motivator. When we say we want money, we are really saying that we want the things that money can buy. What those things are is a matter of personal choice. For some it might be material things such as a new car, a big country house or a yacht. For others it might be the ability to send their kids to university, or take four holidays a year, and for some it might just having a sense of security or freedom, or being able to contribute to charity. Or it might be a mixture of all of these.

These things are far more motivating to us than just having the tool to acquire them. After all, when a builder builds a house, does he only set his mind on acquiring trowels and hammers and all the other tools that are needed, or does he visualise the building that those tools will build? The answer to that is a no-brainer, yet many of us seem to do this when it comes to money.

Money is, in fact, no more than a tool. The builder needs his tools in order to build his house, but acquiring them is just a step in the process. Furthermore, if he only thought of how he was going to acquire the tools, I doubt he would ever be motivated to build a beautiful house.

In order to create the inspiration and motivation that will give us the key to getting the tools (i.e. money), we need to make our goal the thing that those tools will build for us.

Think about the joy and sense of achievement you will feel when you turn the key in the door of your new home, or when you see the delight on your children's faces when you take them to Disneyland, or the sense of freedom when you have a lifestyle where you no longer have to worry about meeting the monthly bills.

These are the goals that will get you out of bed every morning and get you taking the steps to make the money that will bring them to you.

You will, of course, need to be aware of how much money you will need in order to create these goals, but your money goal is now part of your action plan: a stepping stone on the way to your ultimate goal. When you visualise your goal, you will be visualising something real and personal: your house, your family's happiness, your own daily lifestyle in detail, in colour and with all the feelings that go with it.

It is far easier to visualise your goal when it is personal, than it is to visualise an income level. Your goal is now far more meaningful to you, and will set you on course for achieving financial freedom.

Instead of merely chasing money, you are now on a path to the life of your dreams.

Make Money Online - Info Overload

Do you know what the number one thing standing between your online success is? If you said not having the right information, I'd have to totally disagree because there is so much info available today it will make your head spin.

How about not having the right product to sell? No, that's important to be sure, but it's certainly not stopping you from hitting it big.

Could it be not taking action (letting the fear of the unknown stop you)?

Well, you're getting closer... because it's the reason why 99.9% of people fail to take action. What is it?

The number one thing standing between you and making money on auto-pilot is mastering info overload and focusing through the overwhelm of too
much information!

That's right it's Info overload! Sorting it all out so you know what's right for you, what model you want to pursue, which 'expert' has the right path to follow.

If I was starting all over from scratch not knowing anything today (at this particular point in time), I think I'd probably feel like overwhelmed because there's simply too much info today... too many choices.... too many people to listen to!

Every time you turn around there's another guru with another magic pill for you to swallow... another teleseminar to attend.... ..another eBook for you.... ..another blog or forum to join... ..another squeeze page for a newsletter or eCourse that promises to put you on the path.

Don't get me wrong, there is more and better info and resources available today than ever before. However, that's a double edged sword because even though there has never been more ingenious methods to make money online today, you still have to get started with the right method for you. There are just too many choices.

And, let's face it. We are all different people with different goals, different wants and desires, different backgrounds, different experiences, different challenges, and different ideas of what success looks like for us, right?

Because of that not every solution will work for everyone.

It's about finding the one that works for you and your life. It's got to fit you instead of you trying to fit yourself to it.

Making Money Writing Online

Making money writing online can be your ticket to financial freedom, but it's certainly no easy ride. In order to succeed, you have to have a determined, professional attitude and a willingness to work towards satisfying the needs of your clients. If that hasn't put you off, you may be positioned to start making money writing online, without any contacts or experience.

Writing for clients online by and large doesn't have to be magazine standard, and in fact, most of the content out there couldn't be further in terms of quality. A number of clients post jobs online for SEO content, which simply requires unique, reasonably well written articles. Articles which require little or no research, and very little technical input other than scattering a few keywords throughout the text.

These articles can sell for anywhere between $5-$50, and are generally around 400-500 words in length - a fast typist can easily sustain a rate of 2,000 words an hour. If you do the math, you'll see that making money writing online is not only possible, but extremely likely - if you write 4 short articles per hour, you could be looking at a $200 p/hour rate. Not too shabby.

Making money writing online starts with getting involved in freelance bidding sites. These sites allow you to win (usually) smaller projects, but can be a great way to hone your skills and land long-term clients, provided you handle the first few projects in a careful, professional way so as not to put off the client.
