How can I earn money online from home?
I want to know about the best way to earn money online from home.
Hey Jim,
Well, that's a loaded (and very broad) question. There are infinite ways to make money online but more importantly, you need to back the train up quite a few miles. First of all, what is your passion? Shockingly, most people don't have a clue how to even begin to answer that question. They might rattle off what they're good at, what they enjoy doing, positions/roles they've held and been successful in, but as great as those answers are, it dodges the real answer to the question.
Passion is everything when you want to be an entrepreneur. The big reason I see in my practice that people become so discouraged easily when it comes to turning their passion a real job you get to work at every day (and make money!), is the "Point A-B" scenario. Let's say you've boxed yourself into a mediocre job, a life you hate and have no clue how to make a seemingly drastic shift to move away from that which you don't want in your life.
Point A is where most people are and Point B is the 1% of entrepreneurs who actually have the stamina, determination, passion and drive to create empires and leave their mark on the world in a big way. Seems like a huge canyon between A and B for most people but that couldn't be further from the truth.
Once illuminated (after you find your true passion), the path to B is simply a step-by-step climb from where you are, to where you want to be. That's how I did it and so did Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Henry Ford, Oprah Winfrey and many more. You don't have to quit your day job and leap into the deep, dark, unknown canyon with both feet. A step-by-step forward action is all it takes. Even if you have only 15 mins a day to work on it, then do so! (However, if you really want it badly enough, you'll find side time, just my opinion).
Remember, Rome wasn't built in a day! :)
In closing, Jim, take some time to discover what makes you tick, that one thing that makes your heart sing, you lose track of time while thinking about it, doing it, building it. Until you've discovered that part, your initial question is a distant one still.

There are hundreds of possibilities. I make money from blogging, it is rather profitable. If you have some writing skills, if you're motivated and feel inspired, you can easily build a blog with special template ( http://www.templatemonster.com/blog-wordpress-themes/ ).
This is one of the nicest comment that is also dependent of your personality and what value can you add to the people you want to reach to. I also own a couple of blogs and websites, I went and created them based on my own interest, passions, things I trusts, on needs that I believe them existed, and as for personal relaxation and motivation to improve/hone skills. And few of those websites didn't give me more than $10 in about 8 months with affiliate content (no strategy at all at first), but this basic and plain sites served me to land and prove skills and ideas on few contracts. And that is a good point. Define why are you starting a blog or website? Why? don't only look at the money part, there are millions benefits as well. In one of my website, I co own with my sister, it helped us reach sponsors for a social cause and we pay ourselves for the job done, and we also found a business partner for an additional idea that popped up. Just for you to get ideas.
There are lot of ways to make money online. The most popular method to make money online is writing articles. Once you sign up and start writing articles online. This is the best platform for those who are working as an independent writer and make money online.

Well, I have some experience as a freelance SEO content writer, but not sure how to land decent paying gigs?
Yes, there are lot of ways. The hardest part is not finding what to do that you'd feel can deliver just great. The hardest part whatsoever is introducing yourself, marketing, and using personal and professional skills the best way in order to create interest on people to work and do business with you. Not always is about competing in price, it is more about identifying who do you want to sell to.

In return, you’ll get a hold of online cash for the number of clicks attained the content posted by you .I got connected with RedGage for about a month only, and all through this time the list of my friends augmented. More and more people were added, and I got a bonus of $10.80 for one of my blogs posted by me. People are constantly clicking my posted content. I am convinced that most of you would think about these figures as insignificant amount, but for me it is a commencement.

I started by writing a book and trying everything I could through social media. I now have 19 books and am still trying to offer services through social media. Be wary of the idea that any of it will be easy or even easier than finding normal work. It can be done though and any one of the suggestions that have been offered may or may not work for you personally. My advice is this, if something hasn't made you any money after a few months move on to something else. Try 5-6 different avenues at a time and move your full attention to something that works.
Hi Jim,
As other esteemed members suggest, an Affiliate business is the best bet to earn an income from the comfort of the home. One of the credible business I recommend to you is SFI. It's free to join, Besides they provide everything to develop your business; including free website, training, reference materials and support. I hope my suggestion helps you.
There is no best way. If you`re good at something like for example web design, then yeah you can offer your services, or go sell on Ebay. No success guaranteed. Don`t listen to other responses as they are trying more to advertise their own company or some other. They are just trying to get leads for their businesses or someone else. Cheers!
I would disagree with you on that there is no best way and don't listening other responses. There are so many ways depending on abilities and commitment and by listening and pondering other people ideas is how lots of us get up online. There is a client, a lead and potential for every person. Energy and interests are all around us and by being open you support authority content and it should no be a shame or problem at all to somehow sale. You are in business and that is how it goes - being open, share and introduce what you can also do for them. It is honesty at some point.
Perform a real service for real clients. You are at home, what do you know how to do? Do it for others. Use Google+ Hangouts to talk face to face with your prospects and clients. Call a few people each day, tell your story, ask their's and learn more about their's so you can merge the two together. Now you have something they would miss the second you take it away. Have a happy attitude, God is on His throne.
There is not "Best Way" but there are of course many options it all depends on what you feel will fit you best. I myself work from home and I do a number of things primarily Business Consulting and Leadership training. I also am involved in a wholesale travel club which is Network Marketing. If you would like to know more feel free to contact me.
Greetings Jim! I started my journey to create income from home strictly using the internet in 2001. I searched many options, many companies and programs before discovering real opportunities that really delivered what was being told. An area of my consulting firm, NWEB, deals exclusively with advising people about the pitfalls, pot-holes, and speed bumps encountered when beginning this journey.
I originally began my journey utilizing Affiliate Marketing, as people have mentioned. Yes. This form of business is recommended, however, not typically as the only income stream. It is fantastic to be connected to top brands and products through organizations like ClickBank, or LinkShare, but even though you can sell products and make a commission a speed bump appears. You can market the products across any medium you choose, whether your own website or blog, social media websites, banner exchanges, in email (not spamming) and other avenues. But you hit the speed bump when products aren't being sold, or not like you want them to, and you realize quality targeted traffic needs to be purchased. Products can be the absolute best in the market, but without traffic coming to see your products, there is little hope of converting visitors to buyers.
I personally still use affiliate partnerships with various companies, but do not focus on selling products. I focus on companies that I can partner with as an affiliate that allow me to send people directly to their website to become a member, or client. It is normally done through a web link with a tracking ID embedded to track commissions. This has proven to be more lucrative for myself, and others I have consulted with and helped develop their home business strategy.
One absolute certainty I discovered also is that the internet is built to create multiple streams of income into your bank account. As many different ones you can have in place, the bigger your opportunity to make great income becomes. For example, let's say you have a website/blog. You might want to signup with GoDaddy and become an affiliate with them. Now you can help people obtain hosting and domain names at affordable prices.
But remember, that is one company. Find more that of interest to you, maybe you have some knowledge about, and sign up. On your blog, write an article about a specific company, and at the end (throughout also) post your affiliate link for people to learn more. Share this post across all our social networks to create some awareness about the information.
One of my favorite ways to create income online is with digital products that I have private label rights to or master resale rights. These knowledge based ebooks typically, sometimes software, allow multiple downloads delivered after purchase without me ever having to talk to someone. Yeah, these are my favorite! I have a digital library valued at more then $10,000 that I have been able to collect. Some of these types of items also allow you to give them away for free. This is to help create a list of people interested in what you have to offer and now you begin to generate an email marketing campaign. This campaign can be filled with email messages from you personally, about a specific product, and you post your affiliate link, or the link to your website with this product, for them to learn more information and purchase.
While you are doing all of the above, think about what you have expert knowledge about, or that you have specific knowledge about, and write it down. Take this information and begin to formulate a structure and strategy for helping other people/businesses learn from you. Small videos posted to youtube can be of great assistance for breaking into new markets. For instance, let's say you are an expert in sales training. Begin to work on and create a series of videos that offer value to organization that need to train their salesforce. Post to youtube, your website, and other sites that a relative to the subject matter. Write a press release pointing to your youtube channel.
Literally, just this morning I was talking with an individual that wants to create something as well to make money from home. I asked a few questions, and within 30 minutes, we had formulated a complete online business that is going to revolutionize the specific industry his knowledge pertains to, and at the same time create a new synergy among businesses, and consumers. Is it ready to launch no, of course not, but we have the skeleton to work with and I will be personally working with him to fine tune everything.
What I am saying with the above paragraph is that I can spend small amounts of time with people and after some discussion, and brainstorming, some knowledge and a simple idea can become a real source of income.
Feel free to allow this list to jog your mind for ideas about areas you may have expertise and can offer that to companies. The below information is a list of what I do from the comfort of my own home for companies all over the globe.
> Copy Writing: includes 1000 word minimum info articles, blog posts, classified ads & and other forms of written sales copy, social media posts, slogans, taglines, mission / vision statements, website content, ghost writing of novels, poems, creative writing, press releases
> Website design & development: includes design layout, structure development, search engine optimization / marketing, social signals, off-site SEO, Brand development and/or logo design
> Training & Education: includes teleconference sales training, video conference sales training, one on one consults with business owners about strategy development and implementation
I am by no stretch of the imagination a guru at what I am capable of providing to my clients. However, I am confident in my abilities to full provide what my clients require to be successful due to my experience across different industries I have been involved in. I am continually educating myself so that I can help companies that I would never speak to because I did not know their industry.
I trust this helps you understand things that you may not have, and hopefully, sparked some ideas within you to begin fleshing out and implementing. Happy building of your home business!
I wanna say more than just a thumbs up. I love this comment and I think Jim got lot's of ideas with it. Thanks for sharing part of those hard concepts and strategies so plain and simple to understand :)
The means of earning money can come in different levels and the way you turn around a situation your business is currently facing can greatly affect how you can achieve the income you are aiming to earn. Competition in the online business world is harbored in a different way that you have to have the right and updated information of how to promote your business which of course to be ahead of the other businesses. So I advise you to focus of creating plans and marketing strategy that fits perfectly for your business.
Hi Jim - As I am sure you are aware, there are many ways to make money by working from home. If you are web savvy, as Katherine mentioned, Affiliate Marketing might be an option for you. If you find a vertical you are highly interested in, and good offers, you can do well with it.
Another option if you are looking for more of a traditional work setting would be signing up for a website like FlexJobs.com. Many fortune 500 companies post telecommuting positions here, allowing you to find work from home with a larger selection of available positions. Depending on your background, some positions are more in demand than others. Writers/Bloggers, Sales, and specific IT related positions seem to have a higher concentration of remote positions than others.
Good luck with your search!
