Hi, are you good at talking to people about their problems, especially talking with parents about their children? There are many parents who would like to get help for tackling all sorts of problems they have with their kids, right from infants and toddlers to teenage children. They would welcome any assistance they could get.
If you think you might be interested in this sort of work, please write in.

Take care - as you are undoubtedly aware there are a lot of scammy 'opportunities' out there.

Anything that is going to be a 'real ' business over the long term - will require time patience and determination. Also it is NOT likely to bring money fast, in large amounts, easily etc..

Anything that you see that implies - 'I earned loads doing nothing' - is suspicious.

Doing online surveys, or any of those kind of things, takes a lot of time and rewards are minimal - and not likely to get better.

Website design is stupendously competitive - If you want to be a designer, or a web developer (different skills set) there will usually be long learning curve - and then huge competition alraedy out there that you have to overcome to get established - NOT EASY if you are housebound - ...BUT

If you are tied to the house - building a real business that works on the Internet is a great idea...it is just that there are 1000's (maybe even millions) of Internet business scams (above and beyond any other business type).

As someone suggests, you COULD try promoting (along with many other 1000's of folk) the .ws websites...BUT frankly (and this is my opinion) you have to ask...how many businesses today have you seen so far using the .ws variant? (I have seen there are some...and those who sign-up cheap to 'network' these websites...MAY earn back what they paid to join...but for every one person who has earned more than a handful of dollars there will be 1000's who have earned very little).

Given similar personal reasons I have been home-based, setting-up and running businesses over the last couple of years.

The businesses we run (as a family now) - are growing - and beginning to show dividends - it has not been easy, nor quick, but these are REAL businesses that are growing and will LAST...In fact the most attractive about them is that, as the time passes, they become more valuable - and yet require no more time to run them.

I can only suggest - do not JUMP into anything - Do not fall for anything that says you can 'earn lots' by doing little or nothing! (This has never been possible...nor will it ever be...the ONLY people who 'earn' from these offers are those who offer it to the unwary, the unwise and the plain stupid).

Do your research, do your due diligence, and then use your own commonsense and intuition to determine whether or not you think it sounds like a real business that is going to provide you with an income over the long-term.

ANY real business requires some learning, a lot of effort, and investment of time and, at least, some money.

IF you are at home, and have time to do some reserach, and can string a few words together - and you have 'any' passion, hobby, interest, or 'want to learn' about something in particular - which you'd like ultimately to make an income from, then I HIGHLY recommend that you read the information here (the information costs nothing - and you can also download comprehensive information about how to set up your own online business successfully...NOTE - at no cost for any of the self-learning materials): http://infopublishing.sitesell.com/build-better-sites.html
here are two examples of sites using this technology/complete business hosting system: (1) Established over a year and a half: http://www.visiting-the-dominican-republic.com and a (2) new site just developed over 2 months: http://www.gonando.com/

You might also consider an different opportunity that has potential to grow into a world-wide business based from an at-home 'office'. This is - again - a real business, with low set-up/ingoing costs - and long term potential. It is based in what is widely acknowledged to be one of (if not the) fastest growing sectors today - with the advantage of being ethical, and genuine. (I believe that anyone who is not after the 'mythical' fast-buck - will see that this is genuine): You can take a look at: http://www.saferalternative.com and http://ethicalincome.saferalternative.com - feel free to contact me directly if you want to know more (you can get to me via my Yahoo profile - or the sites themselves).

I absolutely believe in these business opportunities - and they can be operated from home effectively. NOTE - You will not 'get rich quick' - BUT because these are REAL businesses - once established they will continue to earn an increasing income, and will gain a 'real (and increasing) asset' value themselves - over the coming years.

Kindest wishes for your future success.

This is for people that are serious and who don’t want to be misled as we have tried many things and have found a company that has been around for 21 Years and pays you to advertise for them. My wife and I just started and are doing well. It is not an MLM company and no selling, no deliveries or stocking product. My wife’s aunt has been working with this Company (Melaleuca) for a little over 3 years and home schools 3 kids and makes $9,000 a month. It is a 500 Inc company and the CEO is on the U.S. Chamber of commerce board. I can arrange a web cast with my wife’s aunt for you and you can decide by yourself and WE WILL help you be successful. It is an honest Win Win.
If you want to see a web cast (presentation) from your home let me know and I will arrange it as that truly is the way to see all about Melaleuca. Have you heard of it. We have just gotten started with my wife's aunts help as it is a team effort and it is fun. Just a quick F.Y.I. 8 out of 10 people that see the web cast join the company and 95% of the people that join re-order product each and every month. Let me know when you are ready and we will set up the web cast.
e-mail: cleanandsafehome@yahoo.com
Thanks,
Rich & Teresa

As you have an internet connection, you could do paid-for surveys online. These are sometimes paid cash or in gift vouchers for online stores. Type in paid surveys in a search engine and follow some of the links. If you have someone who can go to the post office for you, you could easily sell on Ebay or Amazon. Closer to home, selling in the classifed ads of local papers is sometimes free, plus they come to you to buy the goods. A good rule of thumb when respnding to home-working opportunities, is to avoid those which ask for initial payments from you, as it is supposed to make you money not cost you money! Exceptions to this rule are party plan agencies like Body Shop, Avon, Virgin Vie, where the initial payment is for the demonstrator kits. Finally, sign up your details to some employment agencies online, and they will email you with suitable vacancies. Again, use a search engine for examples.

I play online poker and make a decent profit each month (about an extra £500 give or take).

I have been playing for a year though, as it does require practice to start earning.

The company is called BurnLounge. Not very many people have heard of them, as they just started in October 2005. BurnLounge gives you several options for affiliation. With BurnLounge, you can buy music, sell music, and promote new musicians (for example unsigned bands) on your BurnLounge site. They have music sites now, but will be adding ring tones, movies, DVDs, video games, concert tickets, audio books, etc.

Here are some sites for you to check out and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at tonja_myers@yahoo.com or tlm16365@hughes.net

To check their legitimacy: My site is http://burnlounge.com/mlbliss and you can also research them at http://corp.burnlounge.com and http://help.burnlounge.com
