Aloha and Happy New Year!
It has been a month since I have blogged. I am so sorry! My computer got sick and had to go home to get fixed under warranty and now it is back and I am back online.

Making money from home is so much better than punching a time clock! I miss my online time, because I truly love to write and my blog enables me to earn money from home doing something I love.
Make sure if you are starting out online that you educate yourself on advertising and how it works. There are so many ways that you can advertise online. If you are anything like me, I like to just jump in and start. I am not good at reading tutorials, blogs, start here. This puts me at a great disadvantage for advertising because I would be making much more income online if I took the time to actually read how each different type of advertising works!
One of the most common methods of advertising is PPC. PPC is paid per to click. Usually you pay from one cent to nine cents to encourage somebody to click on your ad and go to your website. That is very low end cost for advertising. You can of course, pay more out for pay per click. It really depends on your advertising budget.
If you are working a full time job and are working online part time, it is especially important that you maximize your online time with a plan. What is the first thing you do when you boot up your computer? Email right? Social networking? That does eat up a lot of time and before you know it you still need to place your advertising! How about using a service that submits to all your social sites for you, so you only have to place your link one time? This is a real time saver and actually populates the Internet with your links to your site and your products!
Check it out and let me know what you think. There are a lot of social networking sites now, but some people are offended if all you do is post your links, you want your online brand to be good, honest and trustworthy. You do not want to become known as a spammer! However, this is a great way to post your ad to many sites with a click of your mouse!
There are many free online advertising sites. Some you need to register an account with, really I have found with most. If you place 3-5 ads a day, every day at different sites your site will start to get seen. This is just repeating the same work on a daily basis, which is just a commitment on your part to be successful with your online product or your affiliate program.
Don't give up! Earning from home is possible and more and more people are turning to the Internet as a way to earn extra money or to obtain the lifestyle they dream of. Never lose site of your dreams! You CAN do it!
Aloha and Happy Holidays,
I come from the Mainland, where it would actually be cold enough to have snow on the mountain, and even on the beach back in 1976! No, I will not tell you my age! We would go to the mountains and cut our own tree. It was so much fun! Here, Island Style, it is Mele Kelikimaka and Santa is on a surfboard! Over the years I have lived here I have gotten used to it and it actually does feel Christmasy with 75 degree weather. The trees have to be shipped in and one year a week before Christmas, they ran out of trees, and those who had them left were charging up to $150 per tree! That was about 5 years ago, so that may be normal now, as far as pricing goes!
The economy and having money to spend at this season leaves a lot to be desired. You can no longer count on showing up to work everyday on time and do a good job for job security. As you know, many Companies that were always American icons, have closed down. People don't have jobs. The Unemployment rate is up and that is a known fact as many of the unemployed ran out of unemployment and are now on Welfare. There is no middle class. I don't understand what middle class is! You either have or you are struggling financially.

More and more Americans are turning to the Internet to make an Income, either part time or full time from home. For that extra $500 per month to supplement your income to full time workers who have more than one income stream. If one stream dries up, you still have income streams that are making money for you.
What are you good at? Can you write? Can you type? Can you copy and paste? What do you enjoy doing? Maybe you have an existing business offline that you would like to bring online to create more exposure and more income! The possibilities of making money from home are limitless!
What are the advantages of earning extra income from home? You are your own boss. You set your hours. Many Moms that stay at home are turning to the Internet to make extra cash and be home with the children. When you are researching what you what to do online, check for online scams. Simply enter into Google Search Box "online scams." Also check with the Better Business Bureau. Do you know anybody that is making a decent living working from home online? Ask for some body's advice that is already doing it and succeeding. Don't get into anything you can not afford. Just as an offline business, an online business, needs a budget. You need to advertise. You can do this for free, but it will definitely take you longer. If you can buy in at a higher level to an affiliate program that you know is not a get rich quick scheme, that would be much faster than free!
It is do able to earn from home and to actually reach the lifestyle that you want for yourself and for your family. Have the mindset of a millionaire and get to work! The most important thing is, don't give up after six months and you are not making six figures yet! As in all things in life worth while, it takes time, and learning from your mistakes!
Feel free to contact me if you would like some help in getting started!
