I am wanting to research LEGITIMATE online business for supplemental income. Can anyone help?

I will only research legitimate online opportunities. I will report scams to all appropriate agencies. I am fighting the pressure of todays economy and I am dedicated to my family.

There are quite a few opportunities that are legitimate ways of earning online. Many of them, such as surveys and paid-to-post, paid-to-click and paid-to-read, pay very little indeed. If there is a referral scheme, the income becomes more significant but referrals are not easy to get and, in my experience, many drop by the wayside. The surest way of building a referral base is to build it up almost as a community and to make sure that you support and encourage your downlines!

Just as in any business, you need (1) a product or service and (2) a market. The role of the business is in connecting the two and that is really what any payment is for.

There are many products, of course, which have small or non-existent markets but there are also products for which the market is there but needs to be found.

You can set up a website for your product quite easily but getting traffic to it requires some hard work. Using affiliate marketing (that is, paying a commission to others for helping you market the product) is very effective and is certainly one of the first things one should consider.

Affiliate marketing and referral earnings are quite legitimate, provided that there is a product and that referrals are not simply paid out of the proceeds of joining such a scheme. That is one good reason why any scheme that asks you to 'buy into it' should be avoided!

You can choose a product that you feel an affinity with and market it in many ways, according to your talents. A popular and fairly easy way is to write a 'blog' in which you talk about the products and provide links for visitors to access the products. If you choose well, you will be paid a proportion of the sales of the products. 50 cents on every $10 sale (for example) may not sound a great deal but if you learn to bring traffic to your blog/website by 'Search Engine Optimisation' and, possibly, paid advertising, it can add up to a surprising amount.

The secret to a steady stream of income is to have multiple campaigns or multiple streams. Very few stores make a fortune just selling one line!

I've only given a very brief outline of what might be involved. There are many books which are worth reading (and many more which merely rehash information which can be found for free on the Internet).

Dave Chaffey is one of the reputable marketing trainers and his books and training courses are worthwhile: http://www.marketing-online.co.uk/aboutus.htm

There are many others, of course, and I'm sure you will get many different answers, suggesting as many different 'gurus'.

Always remember, however, that your outlay need not be large - in fact, you should not need to invest anything except time at first. Once you have achieved a small income, perhaps, you can afford to plough back your profits into the business by paying for a domain name and hosting and paying for advertising.

Actually there are legitimate home based businesses, they are just hard to find. One thing you have to keep in mind is that despite the claims of some of these sites, not everyone will just have money start rolling in the minute they join.

I don't like making recommendations of companies because what might work for one person, may not for another; however, I wrote a blog on advice for working from home. It's NOT a commercial for anything I am doing, just some things I learned along the way on my search for the perfect company for me. You can find a link in the 2nd paragraph of my profile here on answers. Also there is a link to the "The MLM Legality Test" which was written by a very experienced MLM attorney and sheds some light on what is legal and what is not.

Picking a company to work with involves several factors... having good products/services, a good compensation plan, reasonable and fair policies and procedures and of course good leadership and training.

If you have any questions, just let me know, or if I can help you wade through this stuff generically, I would be glad to do what I can.

Helping others create income from home through education of the system and how it really works.

I understand your frustration, the economy is in a very fragile state right now. I work a full time job, however I fear it is not as secure as I would have felt even a year ago. I started looking into working from home and came across a very good business, one with a service I can stand behind. What we do is help people save money with our health or dental discount programs, or help people make money by working from home with us. We are all one big team, and I haven't looked back since. This time next year, I will fire my boss, can't wait! You can go to www.freedomathometeam.com/trhonda2000 for more info.

Hope this helps,

The rule is as always. Never pay for a job or any survey. If you are looking for a get rich scheme then you would be scammed. This site has many legitimate work which you can do for any amount you need. More work you do more you get paid.

NO FEES at all to be paid

There just aren't any. The only way to make money on the internet is to have a website where you sell something. Or you can sell stuff on e-bay. Anybody who asks for money up front is always a scam.

I did research and succeeded. My way of assessing is one who pays for your efforts is genuine. This is only with regards to online computer works.

The best I have ever come across. This is not my website, this is where i first came across the ad:

Go to: low-cost-stock-recommendations

.com

Click on the "About This Site" Button at the bottom of the Navigation Bar

In my opinion, there is not a better or more enjoyable business opportunity available.
