ONLINE ENTREPRENEUR IDEAS

To be an entrepreneur online you could set up your own website.  There are many ways to do that. You can choose the one that you feel will best suit your needs and attract the most visitors.

One of the best that I have discovered can be found here.  We won’t spend much time describing the establishment of a good business site here, but you should know that help on that is available.  Should you have any questions about it, then just contact me.

You could also get yourself placed on another party’s site and get paid for performing a service for that site.  Career Redo does exactly that.  We provide a dedicated web page on our site for you to describe your skills and experience in your teaching career field (or another career field if you have that experience). Our visitors could choose you to tell them what is involved in being a teacher and how to be successful.  You would charge a fee and get paid for your knowledge.  Your dedicated page would look something like this.  This career change from teaching can be easy to start.
