Can I Work from Home?

With most people getting laid off from their jobs, and people getting tired of being tired of being tied to their jobs and not having any freedom, many are now starting their own home businesses. Quite significant is the number of people that search the internet looking for home business ideas and opportunities. Google estimates over a million searches by those looking to start their own home businesses and are looking for ideas, inspiration and opportunities to begin.
Now, although that is quite a number, majority of them eventually fail when they do get their own home business. This is because they jump the first question, which is can I work from home? when people do not settle this question, they usually end up dismal failures. It is estimated that out of those who start home businesses, at least 95% fail. This is very common especially in online home businesses. In fact, one company put the percentage of those who fail online at 98%! This leaves those who fail to have to turn back to what they were running from - their jobs. The truth to this matter is: not everyone can work from home. Now, before you quickly accept that, let me clarify the meaning of that statement a little bit. What I mean is that so many do not yet have what it takes to work from home successfully at present, but if they follow some simple rules, then they will be ready to make money from the comfort of their homes.
If you master what it takes to do something, you eventually become successful with it. Let me quickly list a few things you need to be ready to work from home and master the art of making money from home.
First, have the desire to succeed. Now, I believe you should have this, if not, you will not be looking to start a home business. You cannot get what you do not desire. Let what you desire to be free from motivate you. Do you desire more time with your family, a new car, a new house or you plain just want financial freedom. Whatever it may be, let that spur you on to success.
Second, you must be disciplined - Remember, in your own home business, you are your own boss. So no one to force you around and all of that. This fact usually makes a lot of people lazy. They could spend 8 - 10 hours at their job but when it comes to their home business, they spend 2 hours and say they are done. And then, they go catch fun with the remainder of their time. But really, if you want success, you must be really disciplined because working from home has a lot of perks that do not come with working on your job. You can step right out of work anytime, head over to the kitchen, sleep off right in front of your laptop and all that. Devote enough energy to make your business work. Take it seriously. I even recommend you find a small place where you will call your office and put your laptop or computer there and get to work. Dont allow distractions; be focused on the task ahead. When you treat your home business like a real business (it is!), then you will succeed.
Thirdly, Be prepared to invest whatever it will take to build your home business. Just as in the real world, you need some capital. Some folks spend $100 on some things they dont even need but when you tell them to join a proven home business program for $10, they will say I dont have money! or as too expensive!. There are some great free ways to get your home business flying but you will have to invest something either to start up or to make it grow. I will recommend you set aside $100 each month for a start or $50 at least and as your income begins to grow, increase the amount you invest.
Fourth, Never Give Up - success may not come instantly but if you are doing the right thing, success will eventually come. You just stick right with it until success comes. Almost everyone is starting an online home business and only those who persevere will conquer. It may take you a month or 2-4 months before you even make a dime online. It took me seven months to do so. And remember, you have to choose a very good work from home program if you will accelerate your online success.
And fifth, learn¦learn¦learn - the home business niche is a very competitive one. There are millions out there like you who want to make money from home too. What will stand you out is your knowledge.if you know more than them, you will succeed more than them. 
Now, thats all! If you commit yourself to doing this, then you can work from home. Let me throw in a little motivation here that will motivate you to invest your time and money - many people are generating unheard of incomes from home these days. I know of someone who has made over 30 million dollars from the internet alone! I saw someone on facebook recently who had made over 1.4 million dollars from his internet business within 12 months. You too can begin to do so too!

Top Tips To Make Money On Youtube

To make money on Youtube, one must have a few tactics for optimizing content and monetizing efforts. With the huge success and growth of Youtube, many people are looking into ways they might cash in a few bucks - or several thousand.
Some people use Youtube to simply upload video tutorials, blogs, or entertaining clips without having a site of their own to direct viewers to. These people can still make money on Youtube by enrolling in ads. They will make a certain amount of money each time a person clicks on an ad hosted on one of their videos.
Others use make money on Youtube by generating traffic for their own site, and earn their money from that site. Whether they sell a product or service or simply make money on ads on their site, using Youtube to drive traffic is a great way to build a relationship with viewers and create a more stable income.
Still others prefer a blend of the two options. You can enroll in make money on Youtube by enrolling in ads and make a few cents each time someone clicks a link, and include links or calls to action which drive traffic to your own site and possibly make more money.
Whichever way you choose to monetize your videos, there are a few things you will want to do to maximize the results.
Here are some top tips:
1. Use SEO
Search engine optimization (SEO) is a vital part of any website's success, and you cannot afford to skip it on your videos, either. Do some quick keyword research on your topics to uncover keywords you should include in you titles, video descriptions, and meta tags for each video.
2. Create Quality Videos
You don't need a fancy camera and studio lights, but you will want to plan the video so it has clear sound, quality lighting, no "shaky cam", and a clear picture. Some videos are actually cartoons, commercials, or simply slide shows and they work just fine -- but be sure the sound quality and graphics are top-notch.
3. Let the World Know about Your Videos
Especially in the beginning, you will need to get the word out about your videos in order for people to find them. Use social media, your website, email, or article marketing to tell people about your videos and get visitors to come have a look. If your videos are helpful and high quality, you will probably get some people sharing the link for you!
4. Customize your Channel
Customizing a Youtube channel is a branding exercise that instills a sense of professionalism. Even if you are just one guy making videos in his basement, customizing your channel will make people feel more comfortable, give them a way to identify with your "brand", and perhaps even create more interest in the channel itself. Customizing isn't hard and doesn't necessarily require a graphic designer, but you do want to take care to get the best design that you can at the time -- and revisit the design at least once a year.
These items will help you make money on Youtube, but just how much you make is up to you. It does require regular updates of new content and even interaction with viewers, but there are many users who even make a full-time living on the site

Money from YouTube, How it Works

Ever wondered about those little google ads spread out at the footer of some videos on YouTube.com?

Well, you are not alone. Many, including me, feel annoyed by these ads and click on the cross out button to close the obtrusive ad to concentrate on the video.
But, why is that ad there? Who put it? And what is the purpose?
Well before I get to that, let me just tell you that for every 50 people that cross out the ad, at least 1 click on it because it looks like a relevant ad carrying important information.
And if that video is watched by, say, 5000 people a day, it potentially means about 100 clicks a day! And you know what that means right? It means MONEY!

Yes, Youtube.com has now started sharing advertisement revenue that its holding company Google earns from its publishers, with producers of videos with high ranking and high viewership. For these selected videos, Google Ads are shown at the footer.

The major difference between earlier revenue sharing method and now is that if you have a video on YouTube.com that is generating a whole lot of hits, views and/or comments, you can almost be sure that you'll get an email from YouTube asking you to participate in the revenue sharing scheme!

This is YouTube's way of saying thanks and rewarding you for producing a video that generates a lot of hits! And believe me when I say - There is money to be made on YouTube, a whole LOT of money!


I am sure you're excited now and want to start making as much money as you can through your videos, right?!


Good...but wait! Where's your video?! Do you already have a video? And is your video being watched by anyone else except your grandmother?! No? I guessed so!


So how do you make money on YouTube? Simple...By making and uploading a video that can garner millions of hits and generate a steady, solid online income for you.

But that's easier said than done, isn't it? How do you make a video that is not only in the Top, say, 100 videos on YouTube, but also makes you money?

Well, it may not be easy to get a million hits on any video you upload, but it surely is not impossible anymore! Yes, now you can get your video in Top 50 on YouTube.com! All you need to do is to follow some important Tips and Tricks very carefully. These tips and tricks, coupled with YouTube secrets that have now been revealed, will help you:
* a) Do the groundwork in making a video for YouTube.com
* b) Create a Video
* c) Market and Promote the Video
* d) Make Money From Your Video!

Tips on Making Money Online

One of the major desires many people have is that they would be able to figure out a way to make money online - finally being in a position where they could ditch the 9-5 grind and the rat race of working too many hours at a job they do not like in order to make just barely enough money; as wonderful as this sounds, however, this is also a dream that very few people ever figure out how to move into reality in their own life, and they instead end up continuing in the same cycle they have been in for years. Of course, part of this is simply the fact that some people are unable to ever take the time to learn or understand as much as they should about making money online, but another part of this is that there are a few important things most people fail to realize when they are trying to make money online!
Realize the importance of traffic: One of the big things people end up missing out on, as they try to figure out how to generate income online, is an understanding of exactly how important traffic is online; when it comes down to it, traffic is the currency of the Internet, and this means that the first step you will need to take toward success is finding out as much as you can about how to generate traffic online.
Realize the importance of great content: Of course, you can do as much as you want to filter visitors toward your site, but if you do not have great content, you will A) fail to get people to stick around on your site and B) fail to get people to share your site with others (which is a huge part of succeeding online); take the time and make the effort to create genuinely good content, and you will be rewarded with genuine results.
Realize the importance of your sales funnel: When you create a sale on your website, this should never be the end of the road; instead, you need to make sure that each sale leads to other sales down the road! Take the time to set up a good sales funnel - one that is going to appropriately lead visitors to your site toward initial sales, and will then lead them from these initial sales to other products or services that will cause them to make more purchases down the road!
Realize the value of targeting something you know: One of the biggest mistakes people make when trying to generate income online is targeting something that "makes good money," rather than targeting something they actually know; when you target something you know - or something you are willing to learn about and care about - you are ultimately going to have a much easier path to success than if you were to simply target whatever random niche you heard was "good for making money"!

Working at Home with Kids

Working from Home with Kids - This article will include tips that I have learned in an attempt to get work done with a 2.5 year old running through my house. Here is a little bit more about me. I work a day job that I go to five days a week. Then, I come home and work on my writing. Since I am away from home for so much of the day, there is always a challenge as to how much time I focus on the family and how much time I focus on the work that I have to do. It is a dance that always requires discreet attention to solve.
Frankly, if it was up to me I would spend 24 hours per day with the family and 24 hours per day working. It is just how I am wired (Sound Familiar?)
Working from Home with Kids
Anyway, here are some tips to make you successful when working from home with kids -
1. Get Help - Having somebody else available to focus on the kids, especially when they are very young, may be your best and only solution. This person, whether a family member, a friend, or somebody that you do not know who works for you, can do the work that you would do if you were there. Then, the family can just pretend that you are not.
2. Give the kids a carrot for allowing you to work - Do something that incentivizes them to allow you to work. I hear a story of a struggling single mother who promised her son that she would have take him to Disneyland in a few months as a reward for the sacrifices that he had to make in missing his mom when she was working. This changes his mind set about the work from a problem to the ticket for him to get to Disneyland.
3. Protect Your Space - Have a designated workspace that is yours and only yours for work. This does not need to be a large space but it needs to be a space that is dedicated to work. You do not want other people as stuff (especially the kids stuff) in this area because that will just be an excuse to allow you to get distracted. Let the kids know that when you are in this place, you are not to be bothered. This is your personal space and where you get your work done.
I really hope these tips on working from home with kids will help you in one way or the other.

A Full Review of Tubelaunch

At the risk of boring my blog readers I am posting another review of Tubelaunch. This article may be long but it is comprehensive, ---

"I received access to Tubelaunch a few weeks ago so I wanted to write a review on this new YouTube Video marketing program. Tubelaunch is a new membership site launched on Clickbank in February 2013. It's currently only being sold through Clickbank and will show you how to make money with YouTube.This article will go in depth of what you get with your Tubelaunch membership and my own thoughts on what this program brings to the table and whether it's worth the price of admission or not. Be forewarned, this is a long article!
If you are familiar with Clickbank you can skip this paragraph but I wanted to give some more information about what Clickbank is and what to expect. Clickbank is a huge retailer of online digital goods. In other words, specialized ebooks, online membership sites, video help guides, etc are almost all sold through Clickbank. Clickbank handles the transactions and so they provide a secure encrypted sales form so no one can steal your information. You can pay by credit card or through any form of payment that Paypal allows (debit, credit card, Paypal balance, checking accounts). So basically if you can swipe it (or even if you can't) Clickbank will accept it. Every item sold on Clickbank comes with a 60-day money back guarantee. You don't have to deal with the vendor to get a refund either, you can request your refund directly through Clickbank. Please keep in mind that your credit card/ bank statement/ paypal will display a charge from Clickbank.com or CLKBANK*COM. Ok enough about Clickbank and back to Tube Launch.
So when you purchase your membership to Tubelaunch you'll get in your email your username and password information. Remember this! Also, since this product is being sold through Clickbank you'll be given the Clickbank purchase receipt information. Save this as well just in case if you have issues with the membership. I'm not sure how many times I have received emails from customers asking me what their Clickbank receipt number is. Please utilize this if you need help from their support staff about anything.
Once you log in to Tubelaunch you'll get their "Tubelaunch Recent News". Check this out every few weeks. They plan on updating you on what's going on, issues that members are having and how to solve them, and basically new stuff they are adding to the program. Speaking about adding new stuff to their program, remember, they have only launched this program less than 30 days ago at the time this article was written. They are adding more and more techniques and different ways to do certain things all the time. Tubelaunch is set up for growth, this isn't a completed program and never will be. They will change as needed and give you the information you need to update your techniques.
The whole premise of Tubelaunch is to teach you how to use Clickbank and YouTube to earn commissions. You need Clickbank as they have a huge marketplace of products you can market, otherwise known as being an affiliate for. You can open a Clickbank affiliate membership for free, and you just need to setup the payment information so they can pay you. They can pay by either direct deposit or check and depending on your commission threshold they can pay you weekly.
You need YouTube because it's the #1 video website online. It's also the #2 search engine. You can find videos about almost any subject on there. The good thing is YouTube videos will show up in Google searches. So if you search for "weight loss" you'll see a few YouTube videos on the first page. People love watching video and will click on the video and these videos will have a link in them most likely selling a product of some sorts. This is how Tubelaunch works and this is what they preach.
Tubelaunch is separated by chapters. These chapters aren't just a bunch of written text. It's all video telling you what you need to know and demonstrating what they preach all in each video. The Chapters range from the Start Here section including "Introduction", What is Clickbank", and "Choosing Vendors". Once you get through that section there is another section called Take Action. There are several chapters here including "Downloading Videos" to "Optimizing Details". There are several more chapters but we won't give away everything here. Basically this section will teach you the meat and potatoes of what Tubelaunch is all about. The next section is called "Bring The Views" with several chapters that show you how to get your video ranked highly on YouTube and get to get the most out of each video you upload.
There is also a community forums which in it's current state isn't much however they are planning on completely redoing this section and making it much more community oriented. This is where you can go to ask a question and get free help from other Tubelaunch members or support staff. Remember, this is a new program, not many questions have been posted, and this section is under construction.
So is Tubelaunch worth it? That question is up to you. If you have never tried video marketing, this provides an easy way to learn the basic steps that video marketers are using. They also have some more advanced programs they are selling to help jump start your affiliate commissions that they will sell to you as OTO's (One Time Offers). I didn't purchase those so I cannot tell you exactly what they offer however I have emailed the Tubelaunch creator to see if he can explain these to me. His description of the upsells are listed below so you know if the upsells are worth it or not.
When you purchase Tubelaunch you'll get 2 upsells options (not required). One for $47 and one for $147. Now the good thing is neither of these two items is required to make Tube Launch work. These are extras that you can add to your online money making arsenal if you so choose. Upsell #1 is access to another program called Survey Launch. This program will give you an updated database of companies that will pay you to take surveys. If you purchase this product with Tubelaunch you'll be able to navigate to Survey Launch from your Tubelaunch membership. So you just have to log in to Tubelaunch and in addition to the normal member information on how to make money with YouTube by uploading videos you'll have another menu option that you can select to go to Survey Launch. Upsell #2 is $147 and is an online video course with over 40 videos that teachs you from scratch how to make money online. It teaches you basically every little thing you would ever need to know. How to pick your niche, create a website, create a product, create a sales latter, launch your product, recruit affiliates, sell your website, etc etc. So basically the $147 course takes you far beyond what Tubelaunch focuses on and gives you all the information you need to succeed.
Tubelaunch ==> http://tiny.cc/h85f4w is currently selling for only $34, which honestly I think is worth it if you have never tried video marketing and/or never tried affiliate marketing with Clickbank. This will save you lots of hours trying to figure this out. Also, some other members of the Warrior forum have sold similar programs for about the same price but support is not there for buyers months afterwards and these programs don't usually contain this much information. Remember Tubelaunch comes with a 60 day money back guarantee as well.
I hope this Tubelaunch review and in-depth article helps you understand what Tubelaunch is all about. So if you have ever wondered how to make money on YouTube you may want to give Tubelaunch ==> http://tiny.cc/h85f4w  a go."

Tubelaunch Review

Update!! Just found this review -
"Tubelaunch came out in Feb 2013 and its basic function is to show you how to get paid by uploading YouTube videos promoting big companies. YouTube is the 3rd largest website out there which means it gets a heck of a lot of traffic and Tubelaunch shows you how to capitalize on that.
What's the program consist of?
Yes, you will have access to a members area that shows you chronologically how to get a YouTube campaign up and running. I personally do not get on YouTube a lot, but if you are someone that finds themselves on YouTube quite a bit I would say this could be a perfect fit for you to make money online. I always recommend for those that want to make money online to go towards an avenue that is compatible with your internet personality (i.e. you like to see YouTube Videos). Even if you are new to making money online and aren't sure where to start I believe Tubelaunch is straightforward enough for just about anyone to use."

Making Money from Your Opinions

I have advertised "Get Cash for Surveys" on my blog for a couple of months now and feel it is time to review it. This is not a road to riches product but I promote it because it is a way to get you started. Lets make this clear, you are more likely to make hundreds rather than thousands and that you will have to work for it! The discipline of setting aside time to complete the surveys will give you a routine easily transferrable to your next at home business.
I have a background in sales and marketing and am well aware of the importance on surveys in business planning, big multinationals pay huge sums in market research, so tapping into this cash is a great idea.
The negative comments I have found are the predictable "you can find all this info on the internet for free" and "I didn't get the number of surveys and the therefore the payments I expected". To answer the former, this maybe so but how long would it take to find? As to the latter, treat it as a your business and WORK at it, the more trusted you become as a survey taker the more surveys you will get.
My next review will be about a turn-key e business from a known and trusted e business expert.
Until then, regards Anna

Making Money from Youtube

I am republishing this blog as TubeLaunch  still represents the best opportunity for on-line results I have  found so far...
I have just completed a search for the best ways of making money from Youtube. The same name kept coming up, Tubelaunch so I spent some time checking it out.
Of course as you would expect there were pages and pages of rave reviews - any product worth its salt ensures that there is as much positive press as possible. The people who design and market this type of product spend thousands in a professional presentation so they are clever enough to make the product as attractive as possible.
In contrast I found some negative reviews but drilling down they appeared to have their own agenda and their negative points seemed a little pedantic and picky.
My view is that as Tubelaunch costs $34 it is good value for money to get you started. One of the criticisms was that it was too basic but for that price its not fair to compare it to training that costs thousands. It also offers a 60 day money back guarantee so if its not for you you've lost nothing.
In summary, I have purposely not explained exactly what Tubelaunch is as their video, on this link http://tiny.cc/h85f4w  gives a fair introduction. Plenty of people are already making money for Youtube and other social media sites so if it appeals Tubelaunch http://tiny.cc/h85f4w seems as good a starting point as any.

Until my next post; - Anna

A Great Idea For a Home Business

Click and see http://tiny.cc/hdfc4w. Meanwhile I will continue my quest - just heard of a plan that pays for Youtube videos! More later. Best regards, Anna
