Good online business ideas?

Hi

I want some good business ideas for making money online with out relying on search engines and affiliates in the future!

I am thinking on a large scale and of course over many years and a lot of time and money spent to get this really big. I also have a band name in mind and will also have it patented soon

What i mean is:

Relying on search engines and affiliate programs at first to grow the business of course. But I don't want to rely on any affiliate programs like AdSense for my income nor the search engines forever, i want to be able to forget about them and have a online business that stands on its own 2 feet.

Some might say search engines with PPC, they are good, but this is not what i want to start, the competition is at the top.

Having my own PPC ads is something worth having a look at, like Facebook, it is not a search engine, but they do have PPC ads and Facebook don't need search engines for users or any affiliates for their income.

So any ideas? even if they take a long time to get established, I am not looking to make any quick money or any decent money for few years, I am in it for the long run.

Thanks for reading my long winded question.

 

Sex , sex & sex is the easy way to go . Rapid rise in demand and even it time of crisis it still sells like hot cakes .

 

Too true. Plus the affiliate networking possibilities are furious.

 

Be warned that the security must also be furious . Nothing draws more ddos and server hacking then porn .

 

Definitely TRUE!

 

Think about a real business, something where you can use your skill and use the web to promote it.

 

Are you implying that you own an offline business that you would like to further promote online? Or...
Are you implying you want to build an online business using skills such as an add agency, marketing, sales, ect? Using one of your set skills to build a virtual business?

 

You have to stop asking for ideas. "without relying on search engines and affiliates in the future!" - the first intelligent thing, congratulations!
Now you have to create something you are good at, think about it and act

 

can you invest 5000$ ? a good and running business is waiting for you semi autopilot may take 6months to 1 year to get enough popular but a good future

 

The best advice to give someone starting out, is to do something that you're passionate about and a business you would enjoy.

^ I agree.

 

LOL its true.. sex sells no matter where you are Do it!

 

Hombased Online Marketing is the best thing to go.

If you have your website add traffic to it by building links add backlinks. go to forums add backlinks to your signature.

 

Backlinking and simple SEO is easy .

 

I talk about various passive income, business resources, and residual ideas on my site, however two aforementioned replies really couldn't be more true (besides the 'sex sells' comment ) :
1.) Every business needs to be invested, in some form or fashion. Whether it's your savings-money, physical energy/labor, and/or personal time. I know you yourself stated that you are 'in it for the long run', which is good to hear, but you have to record your budget, timing, and other resources available, and be as realistic as possible. You need to realize that the successful businesses out there today started by profiting a few dollars in the first couple years.
2.) Don't ask for ideas, unless it is something that you want to truly be passionate & learn about. Honestly though, if you don't already have an inate desire for a certain niche, then 99% chance you will fail at that business. Everyone is going to tell you to get into affiliate marketing, flip domains, etc. but if you can't find a particular topics or niche to market or work on, you're just wasting your time.

So, a better question to ask is what is the one topic/thing/niche you really could work on for hours, without feeling like you are really 'working'. This could be anything -- food critiquing, playing video games, photography, giving advice, etc. -- list those that you're most passionate about. Honestly, anything is possible for success, look at 'silly bands', iFart iPhone app, Doggles, reality TV, the music industry, almost all popular Youtube celebtrities, etc. -- they all are products/services that are not significant towards our necessities, yet they all have made millions.

With that being said, some niches I see many people have successful businesses in are video/online gaming, computer software/product reviews, fantasy sport leagues, any online store that is offering wholesale/discount items, health niche in general, and parenting sites (work @ home mom bloggers & groups are still cheesy as ever...and still big earners).

These niches mentioned above are saturated, and competition is tough, but as long as you have a mindset of '(product-quality first, profit second' then you have a legitimate chance of having a successful business.

 

this has been posted tons of times

 

If you want, you can start online business such as article writing. There are those who buy articles for $10 each. You can also sell products even just through facebook. I have a lot of friends who display their items in FB and proven true, they make real money. Take advantage of it this holiday as more people are into search for something to give as gift.

 

Well, a nice sharing

 

swoopo, i think you have to join some reliable online network marketing. This is your long term business to reach the financial freedom. Think about the power of leverage.
