How to Profit from the Internet

Tips and advice for people who would like to earn extra cash by working part time or even generate a lifestyle income from the internet.

The internet has been with us for many years and is now used by over a billion* people. Since the early 1990's entrepreneurs have made substantial fortunes and hundreds of thousands of business men and women make a very comfortable living from selling products and services over the internet.

Current Internet Profits
Some people will have an existing business. They may have a physical shop with goods to sell, so for them they simply add an online store and they are able to sell their products to people who would never walk past or even know of their physical store. Other people use the internet to advertise their services and like shop keepers, they are able to generate additional sales.

We have seen entrepreneurial companies like Google, Amazon and others do very well, but what if you only have a spare $100.00 as start up capital?  We know the folks at Google began with just a computer and few ideas, now it is reroute to becoming one of the worlds largest internet companies. So, what are the possibilities for you?

My Story
Like you, I was next to broke, but I managed to buy a computer and figured out how it worked, then a friend gave me a few tips and hey presto, I was able to make a website and I had one product to sell. In that first year, I made enough just to pay off my computer and the cost of my website and hosting. It wasn't exactly a financial success, but I learned a lot and I was able to earn a little more helping others to set up there web sites, but it was still not an income and I was only putting in a few hours a week.

Then someone wrote asking me to advertise their product on commission, well I thought it a bit daft really, but I gave it a go and suddenly I was making an extra few hundred dollars a month. I found a few more advertisers to the point now while I am at the beach, I am still earning real cash and after ten years making a comfortable living. Now I figure that if I can do it, so can you.
