It’s Too Hard to Start a Home Based Business-Or is it?

I always dreamed about working from home, making my own schedule, and basically doing what I wanted when I wanted. I, like so many others, was scared to leave my ‘real’ job to pursue and online fantasy. I quickly learned that what I was feeling were the thoughts of most people who think about starting a home based business. I wasn’t sure I had the skills or the patience to make a home based business successful, especially if it meant keeping track of multiple income streams. Wanna know the truth? Running a home based business looks scary…but it isn’t! Anyone who wants to be successful with a home based business can be.

There are three basic “needs” to make a home based business work. These include:

  1. You need to work hard, just because you are home doesn’t mean you can be a slacker. That said, there are so many new resources out there to help mainstream multiple income streams, that it can actually be easier than you would expect.
  2. You need to have experience and skills in the areas you choose to work in. Don’t have any? Yes you do…it doesn’t have to be skill and experience you went to college for. Maybe it’s a hobby or something you learned in a book. Still nothing? Than pick something you are interested and learn about it. It’s that simple!
  3. You need to have a good instinct for marketing. This you will get lots of help with from other online business owners or mlm teams.
I know what your thinking, ‘Other home based business owners aren’t going to want to help me, they’re my competition!” Well, the reality is that you will work with other home based business owners to crate multiple income streams with affiliate marketing systems. This is probably one of the best ways to make money when your home based business is just starting out. This is a way for you to learn those skills and gain experience from experts in the home based business field.So, I will leave you with this…your dream of having a home based business can be a reality. Just jump online and make it happen!

Running a home business doesn't have to be a mere dream - it can be a reality. So get out there today and start taking advantage of the online resources available to home business people. Make that reality yours.

I am a 30 yr old mother of twins who has spent the past 4 years in different home based businesses. I’ve spent countless hours researching and joining different MLM, affiliate, and other home based business programs. http://www.dreamteamformula.com/go/kpearce

Blastomatic Sign up form
Blastomatic Sign in link

This highly effective and well-entrenced service that has been around since 1998. It grew to over 12 billion post/links sometime in 2005. Easy to set up and use. No tricks here. It is free and very useful. It posts to many venues, networks and types of sites. With Blastomatic by Veretekk you have a combination FFA, classified ad and permanent link submitter. Use once daily for maximum results.

What you are going for using this tool is Search Engine activity and ranking. Don't expect that because your link goes on 12 billion sites that 12 + billion people are reading your ad. What is happening is 12 billion links are being set in place for your site. Keep them their with daily posting.

Join Blastomatic Sign up form using a marketing email. Note that you cannot change your email once you join as a free member. Also, your posts go to the default which is mostly business. (Misc. on some boards.) Once you join and verify your account, you can sign in at Blastomatic Sign in link.

Login and review the site, note the drop down menu contains the links you need to navigate to set your ad up, validate and submit. Set up your ad, link, keywords. Validate your email BEFORE attempting to send your ad. Once validated you can do your blast. When you go to that screen you will see the icon for validation. The main service which validates your email is Validator validator@validatedemail.com. Once you request validation you will receive an email to process your request, sometimes you end up with 2 emails. Note this service have an annoying pop in and unders which tend to defeat your blockers.

The first time you request validation you ususally also receive a couple other validation/verification emails. The other validation requests will come from auth@ffanet.com, sometimes from DTL, and occasionally from Monster.

Post your link one time in a 24 hour period. If you try to submit the same link from the same email address more than once in a 24 hour time period the ad will be rejected and you risk being banned for spamming.

Once you post you will receive several key verification links. One of them will be for TrafficWave. You only need to validate the main program once. The parent link will come with a validation code similar to this one 291031018050 and a link in which to confirm like this: http://ffa.trafficwave.net/cgi-bin/ffaADconfirm.pl?adcode=291031018050. Once you have verified the one link, this is all that is required for you listing to post throughout the Network. Then, you will receive emails from individual board owners/pro members asking you to confirm or validate or verify. You do not. Those are their email ads to you and some have chosen to use those subject lines to force you to open their email ads.

When posting your links free to the boards remember you do get email. The links do roll off within a day (sometimes quicker) so you want to use your blaster daily to keep your links on the boards at all times. There are sites which offer permenant links and that will be a subject for another topic. Once you have done the Mass Submit using Blast1, there is another feature called Blast2. This is primarily the area where you can confirm your link has posted.

Hi Jodi,I am also a beginner, and takes me a while to catch on but using your program - even as a Fr~e~e member, my website -www.proventrack.com achieved a popularity score of 3 on Google in less than aweek, and wasn't even on the radar prior to using the Traffic Panther. Ihaven't even implemented the full submission strategy yet. Needless to say, Iwill be upgrading tomorrow as it is getting very late. I also appreciated yourtraining tonight.Thanks Jodi,Kal ArabiWindsor, Ontario Canada

Hi. My site has (I am happy to say) already a 3 point ranking at Google (I havebeen looking into geting high listings some years ago and finally I'm doing it) I have been doing the Panther submission Strategy. Perhaps it'll get meranked higher. Plus I learned a lot of new things as well. Thank you Jodi. NowI am wondering how much more traffic I get when I upgrade to Level1?Franscisca."

Traffic Exchanges can help boost your ranking

An often overlooked benefit of using Traffic Exchanges in your marketing program is that adding your sites to traffic exchanges is a great way to increase your Alexa rankings and improve your overall ratings in the search engines. Traffic sites rotate your links, which generate "hits." Plus, members surf and view your ads and sites in ways safe lists, ffa and classified ad posts don't provide.

Many affiliate sites “reward” you for promoting their site, ie your referral link, with credits and sometimes cash. This makes traffic exchanges, sometimes called “surf sites” a good venue for most affiliate programs. Program owners rely on affiliates to help increase their traffic and search engine rankings, so adding your affiliate program to traffic sites is a win-win situation for everyone.

The primary concern when adding your link, whether it be a your affiliate or your own site, is that it is “traffic” friendly. The majority of te programs no longer accept items attached to a site which disrupt the surf in anyway. Things which are typically not allowed are frame breakers (sites which stop the surf session), pop ups and/or exit pages (extra sites or ads which ride on the host site and “pop up” in a separate window on your computer or stop the surf,) and even slide-in ads are often not allowed.

The primary reason such “extra” sites are not allowed as they do not reside in the te’s database. The parent site will, and if the parent site starts to act up, throw off viruses or “re-direct” or otherwise misbehave, the te owner can track that site down and disable it. Not so with the “extra” sites like pop ups and slide ins. Those DO NOT reside in the te database, therefore when a problem arises nothing can be done about it until the actual parent or host site can be found.
This also holds true for “rotators”, and you will find the majority of te’s do not accept those as well.

Outside of these issues, seeking out and adding your sites to exchanges makes good business sense. They do require some of your time to manage. As they are “exchanges”, you view sites to gain credits to fuel your own sites running on the surf bar. Plus, most exchanges require you log in at least once monthly and surf to keep your sites current. In very active communities, you need to surf to keep you in credits. The other option is purchasing credits and or/upgrading.

When seeking out quality traffic, you want to keep in mind not only membership size and activity but also the kind of Admin involved with the site. Are issues resolved quickly, how does Admin respond to member emails, is the surf kept clean and safe. Communications is the key in all relationships, and just as relevant in regards to your membership in an exchange. Also, look for "value added" features such as pay-per-click, other marketing resources, membership special offers and etc. These things really can seperate the "good" traffic sites from the "outstanding."

These exchanges are part of the XtreamNet.org network of marketing venues. XtreamNet is celebrating it’s first year in business on the net July 5, 2005.
