Turn Typos to Gold
Rachel Phillips
Running a full time home base business is difficult, especially when you are trying to give your children the attention they deserve. Most stay at home moms try too hard to balance the family life with their business, and is only thinking of the financial part instead of setting up a plan from the beginning. This is the reason that so many mothers choose to work at home. They want to establish some type of financial standings while still being able to watch over their children. Making money online can be a great idea for stay at home moms. It provides a flexible schedule as well as the benefit of little commuting. Some examples of great ways to make money online are: owning a home business, completing surveys, freelancing, and reading emails. Providing mothers with the best ways to make an income online, these opportunities put money into moms' pockets. Owning an online business can be difficult, but if a person is dedicated it can be very beneficial. Even though these businesses are not an easy task, they will still provide moms enough time with their children.There are many businesses to choose from. Some of the businesses require a fee to provide you with a product to sell. Others, such as Cognigen, will provide products and a website for free, but the promotion of that website can be very time consuming and the effort fruitless if you don't know the in's and out's of website optimization and promotion.
Another interesting way for moms to earn some extra cash is by selling items on Ebay. The trouble is, eventually, the garage is neat and tidy and the attic cleaned out and you have no more items to sell.
Buy right, sell right
A little known technique is buying items on Ebay at rock bottom prices and reselling them for a profit. The catch is to be able to find and buy those items at a lowball price.
One sure way is to find items where the item title has been misspelled in one way or another. Many people post items for sale on eBay and end up making a spelling mistake in the title description. Unfortunatly, at this time, Ebay doesn't offer a way to search for auctions with typo's in the title, so many of the auctions close with few or no bids.
If you're interested in pursuing this potentially profitable source of revenue, you'll want to utilize the free online tool that searches for and finds these hidden gems. By using eBay Typo Tool, you will be able to find hidden items at eBay, that you wouldn't have found otherwise by using the eBay search tools. And if no-one can find it then you'll be able to buy it at a bargain price.
