Many of us are anticipating
greatly for the New Year but also confused on what can be done to make the New
Year better than the previous one. This is why I have decided to compile some
list of what I called free online business ideas for the New Year.
A lot of us have made New
Year resolutions and if you haven’t it’s not too late yet. Well for me my New
Year resolution is to make more money these year from many business I will
involve myself in especially online Businesses.
Making money online or from
the internet is the sweetest and easiest thing to do. And going about it is
having some basic knowledge of how it is done and you can keep learning as you
keep earning.
Although it might not be
easy as it seems but with commitment continuity, self-discipline and
hardworking it will pay off in huge profits.
So below are few of the
many businesses you can do online to make money these New Year.
1. Become
a virtual assistant
A
virtual assistant is a person that help client carryout their work online
through the internet. It is is a great job to have if you want flexibility. One
advantage of being a virtual assistant is you will be able to maintain multiple
clients at a time, which means you can work overtime
if you need to at your own time to make more
money. A virtual assistant will generally charge
from $5 and make $50-150 weekly depending on the specifics of your job. You should be able to assist with tasks such as blogger outreach, product listings, research and responding to emails. You can easily list
yourself as a virtual assistant is sites such as Fiverr.com, Facebook groups, Facebook
fan pages, etc.
2.
Offer web design
Every day new companies are emerging and are looking to build a
website to increase their reach all over the world.
In fact, even those companies that have a
website are looking to make sure that theirs looks
more professional, bigger and better than their competitors.
If you want to make money from home with
practically no investment, this is certainly one of the best business ideas for you. This is actually
for people wanting huge amounts of
flexibility. If you don’t have the skills, don’t worry, you can learn the basics of coding on CodeAcademy and do specific online web design courses to build up your skills. After doing that you can sign
up to freelance sites such as People Per Hour and start building up your portfolio! This portfolio might even lead you into a high paying job!
3. Train and mentor
If you have a specific skill or set of skills that you
could teach, you can become a virtual teacher. There
are hundreds of skills that can be taught and
have been taught over the internet. One way of doing this is using videos and
written materials and sending to all the people enrolled with you. All you need
is prepare your materials once and you can keep sending it whenever you have
new emrolments. And if it’s going to be live teaching we have many free video
conferencing service providers this days, example is Skype, Google hangout,
Facebook, Yahoo, etc.
Now
for the start you might have to offer a free service now and build a freemium model (offer free accounts with limited features, then charge for upgrades) for the future in order to make huge amounts of cash. It’s one of the good business ideas for those with extensive amounts of knowledge.
You could:
ü Teach how
to do a particular business
ü How to
cook
ü How to
make …….(anything you know)
ü Teach
a language
ü Teach
how to play instruments
ü Teach
a particular course or subject e.g Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, etc.
ü Offer
marketing training
ü Help
improve writing skills
ü And
more!
4. Desktop publication services
A
lot of people go out of secondary school every year to learn Desktop publishing
for a fortune and also their lots of people around the world today in paid jobs
who doesn’t know about desktop publishing and are willing to learn at affordable
prices you can offer this service online at affordable prices if you know about
it.
This
is not difficult to start and all you need is getting used to softwares,
meeting deadlines, and making yourself
popular online are the keys to launching a
desktop publication home businesses. While
some desktop publishers would like to meet
clients in person and serve their local neighborhood
market, a desktop publisher who renders
services through the internet will have a much
broader market to work on.
Additionally,
working this business online permits you to show
case prospects samples of your work and to
publish testimonies from your satisfied
clients/customers.
5.
Web Promotion
Hundreds of millions of websites are on
the internet today virtually unknown and each of
these websites are looking for publicity. You
can start by making these your business as web promotion
expert and make money online. If you can
effectively promote a website without spending
much on advertising; you have a good business
on hand.
6.
Software / Script Installation services
Another very good web based business service you can
offer internet business owners for cash is software/script installation. This is because many people
desire to start one website or the other such
as a social networking site, forum, eBook store
and so on but they don’t know how to go about it. If offering script installation service thrills you but you don’t have
a good knowledge of it, you can look online to learn within one week; then you
can learn the rudiments of script installation
A lot of the entrepreneurs that wants to develop these websites
have even taken a bold step
ahead to purchase the necessary software or
script needed to power their desired site; but
they don’t know how to go about the installation.
All they need is who can help them install it and make live. I have seen
several small businesses that charge $97 for
installations that don’t take more than 20
minutes to implement.
7.
Niche Research services
One of the hottest and best online business services to
offer today is a niche
research service. All you need to do as a niche researcher is to spot
online trends and niches before the rest of
the crowd discovers such and market it. It
also entails digging deep to discover ignored
or overlooked niches. If you are well grounded
in online business research, then you can
start a business online researching upcoming
trends and niches, and selling these business
trends to internet entrepreneurs and investors.
8.
Blogger to WordPress services
Most bloggers online today have blogs hosted on Google’s free
blogging platform
Blogger, but these days bloggers are switching over
to WordPress because of its usability and amazing features. It looks easy to do and a lot of people might
just think all you need to do is go over to wordpress and create a new blog. The
danger in moving from one blogging platform to
another is that you may lose your content and
pagerank.
Most bloggers don’t want to go through this
nightmare, so the reliance on blogger to WordPress service providers. If you can switch from blogger to WordPress and vice versa without a loss of pagerank or content; then you have a profitable business on hand.
9. Become an affiliate
One
way to make huge money online is through affiliate marketing i.e selling other
people product by getting commission. As an affiliates, you can earn up to 75%
commission in some cases!
Learning
how to earn money online as an affiliate isn’t easy, but there are lots of
people worldwide that are making over $100,000 a year doing it. Most will not
be a successful unless they have some formal help and training. Affiliate
stores are web stores where people purchase items on a site, but through a
third party.
You
can become affiliate on websites such as Commission Junction (cj.com),
Ckickbank, Amazon, Affilorama, etc. There are over 1,000 affiliate programs
online, just Google search it.
Two
keys to succeeding as an affiliate are to focus on product niches that you have
an interest in and having a mailing list. The email marketer’s best friend is
their email list; you have to have an email list! I use Aweber to collect
subscribers, you too can do thesame.
10. Website
Critique
Are you good at website optimization? Can you
help internet business owners increase their conversion rate simply by overhauling a website?
Then you can critique websites for cash. I know
several entrepreneurs that have built successful
online business by offering landing pages and squeeze page makeovers. You can do the same.
Wow….. that was awesome list of various business you can do online
for the new year and make some really good money online for yourself. I believe
you can do one or two of the businesses on the list and if you can’t do any,
you can choose to learn any of them online today and become an expert in a few
weeks.
I strongly want to contribute to your life and believe all you can
do today is take action and do something, don’t just read and ignore, take
action……because at the end of the day, it’s only action that counts and the
rest are stories…..
I wish you the very best in the new year…..
