First, you have to determine what you want to do on the Web. There are many ways to make money on the Web, and you need to choose the best way - what you can do, what your resources can afford, and what you think is needed.\n\nThe Web offers tremendous opportunities for those who know how to harness it. You hear of stories of people who earn thousands if not millions of dollars from doing business on Web. While there are many scams (same way in the traditional business world), there are various ways you can legitimately make money on the Web.\n\nHere are the main business models you can adopt:\n\n1. Sell products on the Web - Big boys like Amazon or Lillian Vernon online catalog or smaller businesses like BigKidsVideo.com or Candle4Less.com all sell products on the Web. \n\nYou can either sell: (a) through your own storefront through your own website or applications such as Yahoo Stores; or (b) sell through online auctions like eBay\n\n2. Information Delivery. Others such as About.com or PowerHomeBiz.com create content and monetize their content in a number of ways:\n\na. Advertising - From the article "How to Generate Advertising Revenues for Your Web Site" http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol28/adrevenues.htm , there are several ways you can earn money from advertising:\n\n1. Join an advertising network. Advertising networks are organizations that aggregate Web sites that offer advertising space, and sell banner ads (and other advertising options) across them. Traffic requirement is often a minimum of 5,000 monthly impressions, although many do not accept sites hosted by free page services. \n\nBurst Media http://www.burstmedia.com\nFastclick (ValueClick). http://www.fastclick.com\nAdvertising.com. http://www.advertising.com\nTribal Fusion http://www.tribalfusion.com \n\n2. Participate in contextual advertising networks. Contextual advertising are text ads delivered based on the content of the web page using an automated system. \n\nGoogle Adsense https://www.google.com/adsense/\nYahoo! Publishing Network (currently in beta and available to US publishers only) http://publisher.yahoo.com/ \nIntellixt http://vibrantmedia.com/site/web_01a5.htm \nQuigo Adsonar http://www.quigo.com/adsonarexchange.htm \nIndustryBrains http://www.industrybrains.com \nCommission Junction Evolution http://www.cj.com\n\n3. Sell advertising for your site directly. This is admittedly a more difficult route for a small business site wanting to earn advertising revenues. But hey, as they say: "no pain, no gain!" \n\nb. Affiliate Programs - you sell other people's products that your audience may be interested in; and you get a certain commission after the desired action was done (whether a sale, a lead, subscription to email newsletter, or however this is defined)\n\nc. Paid online content. Hoovers.com or WebmasterWorld.com Supporters forum all require paid subscription before accessing the information\n\nd. Content licensing and syndication. Some publishers such as the Associated Press get paid every time their content is published elsewhere\n\nHow to Earn Money on the Web\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol122/earn.htm

It is difficult to find a good computer based work from home, but my suggestion would be to sell on ebay.\nI'm a full-time student, and mother and I sell on ebay and have made enough to pay my bills.  \nAlso, I wouldn't suggest you buy the many softwares and tutorials for selling on ebay because it is quite easy and ebay walks you through the process with ease.\nI hope this helps :)\nSusan H

The best work-at-home idea is starting your own business.  That is not something you find on the internet - but something you create on your own.\n\nLegitimate work-at-home program should tell you - in writing - what's involved in the program they are selling. Here are some questions you might ask:\n\n    * What tasks will I have to perform? (Ask the program to list every step of the job.)\n    * Will I be paid a salary or will my pay be based on commission?\n    * Who will pay me?\n    * When will I get my first paycheck?\n    * What is the total cost of the work-at-home program, including supplies, equipment and membership fees?\n    * What will I get for my money?

The easiest way for you to make money is to work odd-jobs around your neighborhood. You and your parents already know many of these people and you can get the neighbors you know to introduce you to more.\n\nWhat are you good at? Yard-work is the most popular and probably the most profitable. Simple painting jobs can get good money, too. The best thing to do is to work really hard this first summer to learn a skill....then by next summer you'll have some good customers and be bigger and stronger, more experienced and you can make more money. Build a clientele over the next few years and work through high-school.\n\nWhen you get a customer be sure to be on-time, dressed appropriately, use your BEST manners and work hard and at a nice pace.....no slacking.\n\nAlways ask if there is anything else you can help them with and ask if there is anyone they know that needs help. Do a few extra little things for free, sometimes......people like that.\n\nYour reputation around the neighborhood will be your livelihood....so be a perfect citizen and don't mess up a good thing by getting in trouble. People don't want trouble-makers on their property and in their houses.\n\nWhen school starts find a Junior Achievement center and enroll into a group or some classes/projects.\n\nWashing dogs is good money. Washing cars is good money. Use good and PROPER soap and equipment!!!!!!!!!!\n\nIf you are VERY mature for your age you could start a small business child-sitting (no babies) or pet/house-sitting (while people are on vacation). You'll need a lot of adult supervision and guidance for these jobs but you'll grow into a steady "career".\n\nLearn to do what others don't want to do for themselves.....or can't do because of inconvenience or older age.\n\n\nBe VERY trustworthy and keep your parents informed of all of the progress you make as well as ANY PROBLEMS you have with your customers......VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!!!\n\n\nGood luck!!!!\n\n\nOH...........by the way. SAVE 50% of all the money you make this and EVERY SUMMER (all year for that matter)!!!!!!!\n\nPut it in the bank and do NOT spend it on games, cars, girls, vacations...........NOTHING!!!!\n\nPut it in the bank and let it grow until you can use it for a down-payment on a house.\n\nListen...........you WILL regret the day you spend that saved money......you'll remember that TeaSwami told you to save it.\n\nDo the right thing..........
