A Great No Hassle Way To Earn Money.

What if you could start a business from home with resources that you already have? And oh, by the way, you don’t have to sell people products or services, you wouldn’t be in a multi-level marketing program and you would have the flexibility to work when and where you choose? In addition, you will have virtually zero financial risk and you can build your business whenever you want. Does it sound like something that might be worth taking the next five minutes to read about? I thought it was and that is why I started this business myself.   

I needed a way to make money in addition to my existing job that was flexible enough to work around my career and family. The website that you are looking at is the result.

The circumstances that I wanted for a new business were these:

(1) Minimal financial investment or risk. Your only expenses are a website host, website construction software, and access to a computer.

(2) Little or no regular time commitment. This business does not require any set hours.

(3) No classes, certifications, credentials, or educational requirements. Use your interests, education or experience to build your business.

(4) No customer service, sales, or management of people. I wanted more money, not more commitments.

(5) Benefits from the advancements in technology. The advancements in technology are creating problems for many types of businesses and this business will likely benefit from the advancements in technology and become more productive over time.

(6) Earns money 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. 

(7) Receives residual income from work that was done last week, last month and last year.   

So, what’s this business? Own and build informational websites. Virtually anyone who can read, write, type, has access to a computer and $100 already has what they need to get started. I started this business with a copy of Microsoft FrontPage and a borrowed computer. Today I earn money from the business every day and you can build your own and get paid too. To follow is an explanation of the steps that I took to get started.

Getting Started

Websites use a software language called Hyper Text Markup Language or HTML. HTML programming is complex and can be very difficult for a beginner. However, you can purchase software, such as Microsoft FrontPage, that allows you to design and build websites on a "what you see is what you get" basis without learning HTML. You don't have to be a computer expert to use FrontPage. To make the software even easier, Microsoft has helpful tutorials on how to use the software. For most people it is easy enough to use that they can increase their knowledge level by using the software and learning as they build their site. FrontPage software requires you to have a computer that is running the Microsoft Windows 2000 operating system or later. There are many website building software programs to choose from, however, many novices choose FrontPage because they are already familiar with other windows based programs such as Word, Excel, and Access. Included in the line below are links to vendors that sell website software.  

Aside from the cost of the software, the only other cost of creating a website business is hiring a web host. Web hosts are companies that have large computer servers that house websites. It is their responsibility to maintain the sophisticated equipment that makes up the world wide web and to “host” the business. Without making a significant investment in computer and telecommunications equipment and the engineers to run them, a hosting company is essential. Many hosting companies offer the services that meet the needs of most web site owners. Pricing is very competitive and it is inexpensive. The host that supports this website provides us with the back end software and hardware support that we need, engineers to maintain the servers, customer service techs to answer our questions, an abundance of hard drive space, email addresses, auto responders and the like. Their uploading software is easy to use and it costs a whopping $9.95 per month without any commitments or contracts. The cost of buying the domain name was a $1. We will continue to own the domain name as long as we pay the annual registration fee, which is nominal. On rare occasion the host server goes down but they all do and the host company that we use claims to be reliable 99.9% of the time and they fix it quickly when an outage arises.

So to get started in this business, you need (1) information about specific subjects that people will want to read, (2)A Website Host , (3) website construction and management software, (4) a website name and (5) some time and effort to build the site. 

So how will you get paid? Advertisers. You will not have to sell ads or manage accounts receivables. Your job is to create interesting information that people are likely to want to read. You don’t have to be an advertising expert or an accountant. Google and the others do that and pay you a percentage of the revenue they generate for allowing them to post their ads on your site. 24/7/365 with little exception, the site is up and has the chance of earning money. The information that was created weeks, months and years ago is displayed and you have the potential of getting paid. If people click on an ad by Google, Google charges the advertiser on a pay per click basis for directing traffic to the advertiser’s webpage and Google will pay you part of their revenue. Google does not disclose the percentage of the revenue that they share with publishers, however, it can be significant. The advertising rates are set by the advertiser on a dynamic auction basis. The advertisers place bids on how much they are willing to pay in order to direct traffic to their site. The more they want the traffic and the more they bid, the more Google earns on a pay per click basis and in turn the more you will earn per ad click.  The ads that Google presents are designed to be relevant to the information on your web pages, which in turn results in the advertisers adding value to your site. So in effect, You will get paid for helping people find the information that they are seeking. And best of all, there is very little overhead and no customer service, direct selling, or hassle. If there is traffic to the pages on your site today, regardless of whether or not you work on your website, there is a good chance that you are going to earn money. What a deal.
