THE WEALTH AWAITING YOU ON THE INTERNET.

In the world of rapid modernization, the use of computer and internet connection is fast becoming a necessity.

Even the remote parts of the world are now having access to the network enabled computers. Little wonder the world is now tagged “a global village.”

Over the years, studies have shown that majority of internet users basically use the
internet for two things: e-mail and chatting. Only a minute fraction of the whole population of internet users make use of the internet for other tasks such as online shopping, research and business.

As youths, there are many ways you can use the internet for your benefits. But for the purpose of this piece, I’ll just point out how you can use the internet to gain some financial freedom.

Internet business also known as home-based business, are business opportunities that can be accessed through the use of a computer and an internet connection.

Home-based business is actually not a new business model. In fact, it has been in existence since the invention of the internet. As a result, so many entrepreneurs now earn a living by exclusively working online.

There are certain unique benefits one can access by working online. These include little or no capital, setting your own working schedules, limitless income (you earn as much as the time you invest), and absolute freedom (you only work we you choose to).

Fortunately, starting up an internet business does not require an arm or leg. A little search on search engines such as google.com will give you different ideas on how to “monetize your computer.”

Another advantage is the fact that you do not need a shop or an office to conduct your internet business. In fact, you do not even need to own a personal computer or a private internet connection to start up a profitable internet business. Some few hours a week in public cafes can effectively substitute a PC and a private internet access.

Perhaps you’re wondering what type of business you can get involved in. I’ll say that the list is endless. Not all are profitable though.

In case you want to get started, I’ll recommend you start with businesses such as

BLOGGING: This means creating a free mini-website with Google platform (www.blogger.com) and monetizing it by allowing Google to serve related adverts to the blog. In this case, you get paid each time a visitor visits your site and click on the adverts. Setting up a blog is easy and only takes about 10 minutes.

Freelance jobs: You can choose to become a freelancer that offers writing services to the ever demanding internet community. In rendering your services, you’ll be charging a price that seems fair to you.

Note, never visit any website without this (https ://). The‘s’ signifies secured site, which means safe from fraudulent posts and adds.
