Soaring gasoline prices, tumultuous co-workers, meager earnings. These are just a few of the reasons many people go to sleep each night wishing they were able to start a home business that would allow them to use the power of the Internet to make a good income. The thing is, these people don’t have to be dreaming it, they can actually be doing it if they put their minds to it and actually give it a try! Here are five businesses you can set up online and add a boost your current income. With a little hard work, it may eventually become your primary source of income.

1. Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing involves promoting products or services for other businesses on your website. For each sale that the company makes on a customer referred from your website, you make a commission. You can display an advertisement for the merchant on your site or devote an entire website to their products. Either way, your income potential is as good as the effort you put into making a great website experience and your ability to promote.

2. Make Money With an Online Marketplace

If you are particularly good at making crafts or clothing or virtually anything else, you can choose to sell your wares online with your own online storefront. There are thousands of people who make a living selling their own creations online. The only requirements - the quality of the items must be good and service even better. If you are terrible at organizing yourself, then you shouldn’t consider running your own online shop, at least not without some help.

3. Boost Your Income With an Informational Website

Informational websites can be a great way to make money online. They provide a wealth of free information, usually targeted toward a specific type of consumer. You generate income through selling e-books, videos, informational booklets, ad space and affiliate sales. When you provide readers with valuable free information, they often support the merchants you have listed on your site and/or pay for the extra information available via newsletters and booklets.

4. Market Your Skills Through Online Services

Create a website to promote your skills to the world. If you are a graphic designer, create a web page to promote your services. Start a blog to help drive traffic to the site.

Advertise your services on Craigslist and other portals. This type of online business can be complimentary to many at-home professions like web design, Internet marketing, market research, copywriting for the web and so much more!

5. Web Hosting Reseller

If you have a stable Internet connection, you can purchase web space from a web company’s servers and then resell it at a profit. You can also include your own logos or business name right on the virtual real estate advertising your services for others to see! Of course, a working knowledge of web hosting and website building will come in very handy with this profession, as you will be looked to for answers by your clients.

Building a home business online does not happen overnight. It takes plenty of patience and more often than not, some determination. Most importantly, you want to be sure that you are passionate about what you’re doing. If you put the effort into your online business, there is a very good probability that it will bring you the type of freedom that has been driving your dreams.

For the most part, the affiliate industry attracts people who dream about being their own boss and having the amount of work they put into it reflect in the income they earn. It’s all about controlling one’s own destiny.

Some affiliates become so successful that they choose to make a full-time business out it. When this happens, the affiliate will usually have to file a DBA, or a “Doing Business As” form, with the local county administration office.

There are a number of benefits to setting up a DBA. A DBA will enable you to create a business name for yourself, open up a business checking account and have a business phone line installed in your home. This is important because with business accounts, you’ll be able to take advantage of many of the tax benefits that small businesses can be eligible for, such as making certain business-related deductions. Setting up a DBA also makes it easier for you to manage your personal finances separately from your business expenditures.

Now that you know why it’s a good idea to set up a DBA, here’s how to actually do it!

Finding the Name for a DBA

The first step in setting up your affiliate marketing business as a DBA is making sure that the name you have in mind for your business isn’t already in use. Your county administration office will tell you how you can access the database where you can check.

You want to make sure that the name you choose clearly identifies what you do, for example, “A-1 Affiliates.” Now that you have your name chosen and discover that it is not in use, you will have to file the proper paperwork to register the name.

Registering the Business Name

It often varies by state, but most states require that you register the DBA at the county level. Contact your county administration office for the proper registration paperwork.

A filing fee is usually required when you submit your application. The typical filing fee can range between $10 and $50 in most states, but some may charge as much as $100. Once the application reaches approval, some states may require you to publish a notice in the local newspaper that you are doing business as your DBA name.

In most states, if you do business as a fictitious name and the name is not registered, you could face serious legal and/or practical situations. To save yourself plenty of trouble or fines, be sure to follow your state’s guidelines for registering your DBA name.

Your DBA website will help to not only advertise your merchants, but you may be able to set up affiliate-related programs and provide content that can turn into a steady stream of income as your business grows.
