Are online home businesses genuine and worth doing?

Are online home businesses genuine and worth doing?
I was looking for a genuine home business that can be done
online for a few hours from the comfort of my home
basically to help my family to be financially better off
than what we were then. When I started my search and
reviews on the net I was confused that any business on the
internet offered extraordinary promises in a hyped
language. I attempted for a few data entry businesses and
filling in survey forms but I was deceived or they were not
up to the mark.

From my research and info I gathered, I think we can
classify the online businesses into 3 major categories.

1. Marketing your own product or service: Developing your
own product or service and sell it online. Can be any
product like an antique or cosmetics or service like
cleaning or counseling. To do this you need to be a
well-experienced online marketer and you need to do this on
your own. I don't think this is advisable for an Internet
newbie like me.

2. Advertising sites: Here you create websites and allow
others to advertise on your site and charge for each time
the ad is clicked which is called Pay Per Click (PPC). You
get to choose your market by keywords and develop a web
site, which has information relevant and important to the
market you are targeting. Ad sense sites are the most
common sites for creating the advertising sites. If you
register with Google Ad sense , Google places ads on your
web site and each time the ad is clicked, Google pays you.

3. Affiliate Marketing: Affiliate Marketing is marketing
other people's products and services on your web site. You
get a commission for selling each unit of the product for
the business you are affiliated with. This can be
successful only when the business marketing system is more
than 95% automated, availability of comprehensive training
and guidance for you and an excellent support system
provided by your team. This may have a higher initial cost
than the above online marketing systems. But I believe "You
will get according to whatever you invest".

There are not many successful and honest affiliate
marketing systems which provide highly automated systems,
good products that you will be proud about advertising,
excellent mentoring and support from your sponsor and also
a market not yet saturated with the program. I found
Wealthy Marketer to be one such program quite new to the
market but keeps up the promises it offers to the
customers. This may work out for you as well. Why not give
a try?
