Work at Home Based Business

There are 2 ways to make money at home online that I know of:

1. You can find a legit work at home job like Project Payday or CashCrate. I will go into more detail about these options in the next section of this article.

2. Build and optimize niche blogs and make money from Adsense clicks, affiliate programs, etc. I will also go into depth on this make money at home option as well.

First, let’s talk  about the work at home jobs like Project Payday and CashCrate. These, by the way, are the only 2 legitimate “get paid to fill out free offers for companies” ones that I am aware of. Project Payday and CashCrate are both free to join and free to fill out offers for. When you complete the offers, you get paid.

The downside to these is that they aren’t very passive. If you don’t fill out the offers, you can’t get paid. It’s like a job, but you do it based upon what you want to do.

The good part about Project Payday and CashCrate is that you can start making money right away. If you work at it like a job 8 hours a day, you can make a couple hundred dollars per day. You can do the work anytime day or night, so it’s easy to fit into a hectic schedule.

If you prefer the option to make money at home with niche blogs like I do, then you will need to read Nomad’s Guide to Make Money Online for all the ins and outs of how this is done. This Nomad’s Guide ebook is based on the teachings of Grizzly Brears and is the closest thing to a shortcut that you will find for those of you who are ready to get started with this method of making money.

The wonderful part about niche blogging is that it becomes quite passive after you get your blogs set-up with Adsense or however you choose to monetize it. All you have to do it keep adding more – and that’s only if you want to. I have hundreds of these types of blogs that earn me a full-time income online. That is how I make money at home and how I am able to continue being a digital nomad. I highly recommend this make money online method!

I’m amazed at how many people think it’s not possible to make money online legitimately. I, and all the other authors on this blog, are living proof that it is indeed possible to work at home or make a living online. With the common knowledge that most internet marketers put out there nowadays, it’s no wonder most people think that it’s impossible to make money online! Most of the “guru”  tips are horrible and lead us nowhere fast.

Here at the Work at Home Based Business Blog, that isn’t the case. You have a team of full-time internet marketers who know the ropes of the make money online game – and know it well! We are here to tell you that if you know the right strategy and have the tenacity to implement this strategy, you will succeed at working from home (or anywhere for that matter!)

So what are those strategies? I advise you to pay close attention to what we do just as much as you do to what we say. Let our actions guide you. Making money on the internet is not hard, but it’s also not simple. You must be consistent and do a little each day toward your goals. Some background to basic strategies in an online money making guide will be of help to you. Rather than Googling terms related to making money online all day and getting your head spinning from information overload, an “organized, no nonsense” guide with all you need to know to get started is now available. It is all you need to start making money online.  You really can make money at home – it’s all up to you!

One of the biggest problems in the world of Internet marketing is keeping your products from being stolen. Before I go into this article in any depth at all, let me say that there is no one method of product protection that is 100% foolproof. When I explain the various methods, you’ll see why. If you’re looking for a fool proof solution, it doesn’t exist. Having said that, there are things you can do to greatly reduce the risk of having your products stolen.

The first and cheapest way is to regularly change the thank you page URL of each of your products. The reason you want to do that is because people intent on stealing your stuff will search out these URLs and pass them along to others. There is nothing you can do to stop this unless you go to a paid solution. But changing your thank you page URLs will stop a good deal of theft.

The next thing you can do is password protect your PDFs or create executable ebooks that are password protected. There is a problem with this method however. It’s very annoying to your legit customers. Also, there is nothing to stop them from passing along the password to another person.

Another thing you can do is go to a scripts directory online and find one that actually protects your products from being downloaded illegally. The problem with these free scripts is that they usually don’t come with documentation and they do have some serious limitations.

The best solution that I have found is DLGuard. It is without a doubt as close to perfect as anything I have found. It’s not going to stop somebody who bought your product from sending the actual PDF to another person, but as far as somebody accessing your product off your own server, it is virtually close to impossible.

So if you’re looking to protect your products from theft, check out the link in my signature. I promise you, you won’t be sorry. I use DLGuard to deliver all my newer products and am working on getting my older products on the system too.

It’s THAT good.

DLGuard – The Ultimate Product Protection Solution

A lot of people are going to get this question wrong and it’s because they don’t understand the true psychological barriers to earning a living online from the “comfort” of your home. Okay, there, that should give you a clue. The question?

What’s the hardest part about Internet marketing?

If you said, not knowing what you’re doing…buzz. Sorry, wrong.

That’s only true at the very beginning. Sure, nobody knows what they’re doing when they first start out. Heck, I didn’t know what I was doing when I first started either. But I learned.

However, even with all the knowledge, you’re still not going to have success unless you do one very critical thing.

Know what it is?

Time’s up…Buzz.

Okay, here’s the answer…take action.

I don’t care how much you know. Unless you actually sit down and do the things that you need to do, you’re not going to have any success at all.

Okay, some of you are probably saying, “Duh! Well, of course not.” Ah, but do you REALLY understand WHY this is such a huge problem? I mean why is it that so many people don’t take action?

I’m going to explain why with a very specific example. After you are done reading this, you will TOTALLY understand why this process is so hard for people.

Let’s say that you want to create your own ebook. It doesn’t matter what the topic is. It can be anything at all. Okay, let’s take a look at what’s really involved with doing this.

Well, for starters, you have to create the book, which means tons of writing and tons of research in order to get the book written. But that’s only part of the problem.

A good marketer knows that in order to sell this ebook, he has to build an opt in list of prospects. To do this, he needs to create another book to give away as a free report. Plus, he needs to create a squeeze page in order to get opt ins. Then, he needs to create an autoresponder series of relevant content in order to persuade people to buy.

On top of all that, he has to create a sales page to actually sell the ebook from. And these can cost a fortune if he can’t write sales copy himself. And finally, if he wants to establish a web presence, he should also have his own full blown web site…another pain in the butt to create.

As you can see, this is a ton of work. And we haven’t even gotten to the part of actually advertising your product. But why is it that people don’t want to do this? It’s not so much because of the work itself, though that is a part of it. It goes deeper than that.

See, when you’re confronted with having to put THAT much work into something, in the back of your mind, you’re always thinking, “What if I do all that work and it’s a flop?” The thought of having to put in all that work for NOTHING is what scares people the most and that is why they don’t do it.

Truth is, if somebody did all the above for them and said, “Here, take it” they’d at least give it a shot. They’d have little to lose by putting out a few ads. If it didn’t sell, so what? They at least didn’t waste all that time creating something.

Well, when I realized this, I finally decided to do something about it. I’ve created a test product to see how it does. It’s called, very simply, “Business In A Box” and it has all the things I discussed above. All you need to do is take it and upload it to your server. Yes, you will need to get your own hosting and domain. That’s the only thing I don’t provide.

Here is what you get in “Business In A Box”.

Squeeze Page for collecting opt ins
Free Report to give away to these opt ins
52 week autoresponder series to follow up with opt ins
Product to sell
Sales Page
127 page web site loaded with content. (No, you’re not seeing things)

The only thing you have to do is just upload the sales pages, squeeze pages and site and get an autoresponder (I recommend Aweber) to send out the followup series to.

If you want to get more detailed information, here’s the web site:

I’ve sold a few beta copies and you can read the testimonials on the sales page itself. There are more but I didn’t include them all because, quite honestly, you wouldn’t believe what people had to say about this offer.

Why am I making it? Well, I look at it this way. I’ve already done the work by putting all this together so why not give others the chance to use it as well? So few are going to take action anyway (even doing all this for them) that I’m not worried about there being a glut on the market. Besides, I’m only going to let so many of these go before I pull this page down. So don’t be surprised if you go to it today and find it gone.

Anyway, here’s the site again.

Put “Business In A Box” in the subject

There is nothing I won’t answer. It’s not like it’s an ebook of secrets that I have to keep from you. I could tell you everything that’s on every page of every site and it won’t matter. You’ll either have to get it or do it yourself, which is what I am trying to save you the trouble of doing.

So ask anything you like. I’m an open book.

In the meantime, you now know what the hardest part of making money online is…taking action.

And believe me…for most people…it’s the deal breaker.

I didn’t really start to make a lot of money online until I started to create my own products. You’re probably wondering why that is. Well, I’ll briefly explain and then give you a few product creation tips that I think you’ll want to make note of.

Okay, so why do you want to create your own products as opposed to marketing products that others have created? Well, one reason…competition. when you’re promoting other marketer’s products, you’re going up against all their affiliates. When you’re selling your OWN product, you not only have no competition, but you also have the help of affiliates selling YOUR product.

Having said that, there are a few things you’ll want to do when creating your own product.

At the top of the list, believe it or not, is to give your product a professional appearance. Trust me, in this business, looks are everything. So have an ecover made if it’s an ebook. Whatever the product is, have a matching graphic for it. This will increase, not only the perceived value, but also the number of sales that you make.

The next thing you want to do is make sure that the product is well made. For example, for an ebook, you want to have a table of contents, page numbers, a resource section and so on. You want the product to be as well made as possible. A well made product will bring about sales from previous customers. If they were happy with your first product, they’re more likely than not to buy your second product.

Another important thing to consider when creating your product is what you’re going to charge for it. If you’ve done your research correctly, in order to determine if anybody will even want your product, you’ve found that there are other products already out there similar to yours. It is important to know what these products are selling for so you can price yours accordingly.

In my signature is a book that goes into all of this and more in a lot more detail. It’s probably the best book you’ll ever pick up on product creation. It was written by my friend Justin Michie and myself. It leaves no stone unturned when it comes to product creation.

If you want to make it to the next level in terms of income, then creating your own products is the way to go.
