It never ceases to amaze me how people are willing to let Social Networks exploit their personal information to sell advertisements, yet most will never see a dime from the Millions or Billions that their online diaries are generating. Something as simple as adding a link to your social site could be generating you income, effortlessly, for free.
The whole premise behind the internet is marketing. Many will tell you the internet’s purpose is to share information, I would agree and add, that’s all marketing is in it’s most basic element, “sharing information”.
The Internet allows us to share information without actually selling anything, that’s the beauty of Social Sites. If your on Twitter, FaceBook, or in anyway, blogging or posting your latest discoveries, is speaking about a new online income opportunity selling? Or are you just speaking about what you’re doing? In the description or explanation of what you’re doing to generate income online, you may find you receive some buying questions from friends or followers, i.e. How much have you made? How much does it cost? How could I add this to my site? To Answer these questions wouldn’t be selling anything, but could result in a sale.
So Which Online Opportunities Should You Be Looking For & Which should You Be Running From?
consider the following when researching Home Business Opportunities:
* Does the product, service, offer or opportunity have real usefulness or offer real value?
* Does the cost of the opportunity drive you from or attract you to the offer?
* What can you afford to invest in your business?
* Will your sponsor pay for you to try the offer?
* Can you get your money back if you are not satisfied?
* Who is offering the product or service and how long have they been in business
Example: A Legitimate Home Based Business Opportunity Below
Have You ever heard of the Global Domains International Affiliate Program?
This program costs $10/ Month but many affiliate marketing programs are free. The Global Domains International Package includes: Hosting, a free Domain Name “.WS”, 10 email accounts on your Domain, a site-builder interface, and loads of GDI buttons, banners, videos, and replicated-sites to help you be successful should you choose to take advantage of the income opportunity. Many users simply use GDI for the Hosting, Unique domain name, 10 email accounts & site-builder application. Your website doesn’t need to be based on or even mention GDI if that’s not your focus. GDI will provide a free 7 day trial of their Domain package.
There’s a website
wwww.homebody.ws that will pay for a 30 day Free Trial Extension on you GDI domain package and guarantee they help you generate at least $100 in your first 37 days or you can quit and pay nothing. This site also lists other Free work from home programs and ways to generate income online.

The GDI’s Monthly Residual Payment Plan Vs. MLM Pyramids
Global Domains International (GDI) Is one of the largest website providers in the World, (GDI) affiliate domain packages pay 50% of their gross revenue back to end users through monthly commissions. Here’s how it works:
Domain packages cost 10 dollars a month. 1% or $1 / month is paid to the person who refers you, and the person that referred them, and the person that referred them, and the person that referred them, and the person that referred them. Lol, Really!….So $1+$1+$1+$1+$1= Affiliate Pay Out & $5 for GDI. Now this where you start to toss words around like “Pyramid, Scam, Scheme,etc” trust me, initially I felt the same way but after further research I found problems with that conclusion.
Here are some key differences:
#1 Most pyramids are all about the initial sign up fee, so they’ll be pricey. They know that their program has no real intrinsic value so they try to stick it to you up front. Sign Ups will usually start from $100-$150 and run into the Thousands.
Vs. GDI’s program is free for the 1st 7days, after that it’s $10 a month, billed monthly. You can cancel at any time, due so 5 days prior to bill date to assure billing does not occur for the next month. You must be a referred to GDI through an affiliate to get the affiliate rate of $10 per month for your domain package so you will need to sign up through someone. Be wise.
www.HomeBody.ws is an affiliate that will actually pay for your first 30Days with the program and allow you to quite without spending any money if the program is not paying for itself by “Day 30″. They also provide a support site, program training, a You Tube instructional channel, and live consultation.
#2 Most Pyramids promise extreme success fast! They have to so you think the sign up fee is worth it. Vs. GDI, a residual based income model. Again $1 per month for all members of your downline. This business model makes it in everyones best interest to help their downline be successful. most people understand it will take a few months to bill your downline to a substantial size.
#3 Most pyramids really have no good product or service that they are offering at a competitive rate. i.e. your either reselling someones product or service that they can get cheaper direct, or asking for a lot of money up front for an “opportunity” or just plain old gifting programs with no claim of product or service. Vs. GDI that provides a domain package that includes: Hosting, A Domain Name “.ws”, Site-Builder Web Development Tool, 10 Email Accounts @ your domain, 5 Hosted WordPress Blogs(opt.) or Sub-Dpmains, 5 Drupal sub-domains (opt.), Back-End Technical and marketing support, 2 Affiliate Compensation Methods, Websites,Banners, and videos pre-created to help you be successful.
#4 With pyramids the people at the top make all the Money!
The GDI monthly commissions are paid by check or Pay Pal deposit on on the 15th of every month. Affiliates receive $1 per month for every paying member of their downline. This ratio remains consistent from the top the bottom. You will always have 5 people in your upline or 5 people who get paid 1$/ mo. when you pay your $10/ mo. fee for the program. You would think that these 5 people will always make more money than you because when you refer people they automatically get paid too. That may be the case in a pyramid but not with GDI. Actually when you refer new sign ups the 5th level of your upline receives nothing. If they did, they would need to be paid for 6 levels instead of 5. So If I go out and sign up someone under me who signs up 10, 000 people I could be responsible for helping my level 1 per month, 2, 3 & 4 upline generate more income then the level 5 upline member that referred them. In a similar situation if my referral signs up someone who does extremely well, than Myself, my level 1, 2, & 3 could be generating more than our level 4 & 5 upline members that referred us.
GDI also has a weekly referral bonus contest for affiliates that are interested in earning even more income. This bonus pays an unlimited amount of $100 bonuses for every 5 new referrals from Mon.-Sun. This contest helps to drive excitement about the overall program and expedite downline growth. (i.e.) 5=$100, 10=$200, 20=$400, 50=$1,000, etc. In order to be registered for the GDI weekly Bonus Contest, you will have needed to complete and return the terms and conditions, contest policy forms, and W9′s. This is more proof that this company is legit and is both tracking and filing taxes. This also allows GDI affiliates to write off all activities for the year as a home based business, which itself may be of more value to you than $10 per month.
There are various legitimate money making opportunities online for the savvy hunter.
www.Cashcrate.com is another good way to make money. You simply choose to complete various surveys and offers and receive payment monthly. If you refer people you get 20% of what they earn and 10% of the referrals earnings. This site is 100% free. It’s also listed on
www.homebody.ws. So the moral of this post is “They Can’t All Be Scams” but be smart, I hope this little bit of insight helped and good luck…
