I just read a good post on 3 of the top online small business opportunities for 2012 that provided 3 different ways to get started in the online world of business. Most (mine included) online businesses start rather slow and return small profits for the first few months, not all, but most. I'm not a big advocate of the business opportunity business model where you basically by in for a few thousand dollars. These are direct sales/network marketing models and in my experience they are more like a job than anything else.
Building a full fledged online business that is long term and sustainable was my goal and after almost 2 years I found a good model that works for me. I combine affiliate marketing, lead generation, private advertising and AdSense as streams of income and this has made a profitable business over time. I've recently started to earn money with Amazon's affiliate program as well which focuses on physical products. Most of my affiliate earning have been from digital information products in the past, I used clickbank a lot.
Go and read that article on 3 of the best online business ideas for 2012 if you want to finally get started or want to earn more money in 2012 from home on the Internet. Feel free to share some of the best business opportunities and the most profitable small businesses you've been involved with online as well.
Thanks,
J.Crawford
