7 Online Business Opportunities To Consider

Posted on February 11, 2022February 11, 2022 by Larry

Oftentimes it is difficult to find a full-time job, but one doesn’t have to look hard to find opportunities for potential quick, part-time work. In fact, there are multiple online business opportunities available right now. Here are seven of the best online business opportunities!

1) Start Taking Surveys Online

So, you’re looking for easy money? Well, it is out there! While you may not be able to start a business and sit back as your bank account fills up with the money, you can still make some extra cash with online surveys. There are plenty of sites where companies will pay you to take simple surveys.

2) Start an Online Blog

Believe it or not, you can actually start a blog that makes money! There are plenty of sites out there that will allow you to create your own ad space. So if you don’t mind shilling products, check out some blogging platforms like Google Adsense (which is used by the blogs on the How-To Geek site). Starting your own blog is a great way to have full creative control. Try running WordPress on AWS and become a merchant.

3) Become an Online Translator

Believe it or not, there are many people who need help with their English skills! Sites like O Desk allow you to become part of that pool of support. If you’re multilingual and have strong writing skills, this can be a great option. While you probably won’t get an assignment right away, it is still worth checking out.

4) Start an Online Store

Don’t want to make a blog or a site? Not a problem! You can start your very own online store. Sites like eBay and Amazon allow you to create an account, list items for sale and then receive payment from those who purchase those items. The great thing about this business model is that you don’t need any startup costs, and you don’t need to create a product.

5) Start an Etsy Store

While some may say that starting an online store is outdated, keep in mind that people still use it on a daily basis! Sites like Etsy have been perfecting the way products are shipped to customers since 2005. And since this site is used by so many, you can bet that there will always be customers looking to purchase items. For those who are creative types, this is a great opportunity.

6) Become an Online Coach

Do you have a skill that your friends and family appreciate? Perhaps, you excel in sports or cooking. Or maybe, you’re just a great listener. Whatever it may be, consider sharing that special talent with the world through an online coaching website like Clarity. This is one of the best online business opportunities because not only does it allow you to use your skill, but it also allows you to help others better themselves.

7) Start Fiverr Business

This is one of the best online business opportunities because there are no upfront costs! The only thing that you need is creativity. Sites like Fiverr allow people to sell their services for $5 each. 

There You Have It

If none of these opportunities seem interesting to you, don’t give up hope! Be sure to use the resources available on the internet because chances are there are other opportunities not listed here. Good luck!

About Us

My good friend Ben started this site many years ago.  Ben said this about himself, “am a follower of Christ, a rabid computer geek, small business owner, and breaker of things. He is married way above his station in life and has three wonderful children who have made driving him insane their mission in life.”

Well back in 2019, Ben suddenly passed away from cancer and he asked me to continue the site. I like Ben, am a follower, a computer geek, a small business owner, and the father of 5 great children.

I miss Ben everyday but run this site in his honor. Thanks for visiting and enjoy!
