Work at Home Internet Business Not As Easy You Think

    It doesn't take long before you realize that search engines aren't picking up your site, your Google ranking is next to nil (if you have a ranking at all), and there aren't any visitors flocking to your virtual doors. There is far more to having an internet work-at-home business than having a website and something to sell.#Post12

    If you put some time into it, read the forums, get advice from experts it can work and for some people it works really well. But I agree for many it doesnt meet their expectations - it takes alot of hard work and most of all patience.

    What home business are you working on?

    Website can take time to give results. One need to work on their sites regularly in order to improve its ranking. Results come in weeks or months.

    Adding useful content and building relevant backlinks can help a site to rank good in SEs.

    Maybe your Meta tag keywords and description have not done properly. Thus, Google search engine still haven't pick up your site until today. Get this done and then start to promote your website. Be consistent in promoting your website and you will see improvements.

    You also have to market your blog. Be active in forums, bookmark your posts and join social networking sites. You can also try entrecard, blogcatalog and mybloglog. My blogs do get traffic from them.

    Its depend on what online biz you dealing with.
    For me i found out that,online biz is more time flexible and its a more rewarding career compare to work offline.
    I earn more when i doing online biz than working offline.

    Yes, is not easy as we think. My advise is to keep doing and don't expect any profile for 1st year. Thanks

    Yeah it takes time and effort. But try to spend a week on just promoting your site. I mean, there is A LOT of ways to do that. So dont be lazy!

    U can example try xRumer. Or youtubemarketing, myspace, facebook. The list can be huge. And the key is: Just do it.

    You're right... making money online is not as easy as one might think. It requires WORK, PATIENCE and DEDICATION.. It took me about a year till I started making a stable income online

    it takes time. but you make the website, and keep linking back to it on other websites like ezinearticles and squidoo, for a long time. if you do it everyday and actualy have a decent website you should do well

    You raise an important point. An online business is not "easy money" it takes time and patience, as well as a strong dose of self-discipline.

    Everyone aspires to be rich. The only secret behind getting yourself here is imitating the millionaires. Fortunately, being with them secures you the chance to discover their life and how they became who they are. One thing is for sure that they got to this point through business streams. These streams bring with them business opportunities. Many of us don't want to take the risk of making money from these streams as a basic idea rather they consider this as scam.

    Each one of us has an individual life, and is in charge of making decision about this individual life. We all yearn to be rich at one point in life. Having millionaire friends is a boost towards achieving this dream because they will teach you all the tricks about using money; what is likely to make you prosperous and what is likely to make you poorer. Most millionaire friends who have been in the business for long knows what is good for the business, what is not and how to tell one from the other.

    Have you tried http://www.storesonline.com Use this service if you are really really desperate to get a site promotion. There is some controversy if you google them

    Here is some general info on it. Click herel

    Basically they set up your site for you, teach you all the SEO marketing methods. They also allow you to do drop shipping which they will set up for you. All you do is pay a one time site fee and then the monthly hosting.

    So whats the catch and all the controversy. Basically from all the google results I have read, they do set up your site I think, but it costed thousands of dollars, which was years ago. According to the blog site i posted, it went from $3000 per site to $40 a site. The monthly hosting is still $25 pay as you go. The $3000 cost also included the basic marketing trainings, which is now free.


    So basically, if you are really in need of a site go to them. And if they want to you charge you any more than $40 per site you tell them NO!!!!!

    As for me I am waiting for the day when their site cost becomes free.

    Your post said "easy" which - if you really look at it it's only as hard as you make it. Start every day and say that this business is easy and with time and effort I will reap the benefits.

    If you were to say "quick" then I would agree as that is indeed the case with most people.
