Make 2008 Your Year

The benefits of building your own home business have (to me) always outweighed getting a work at home job. I love being the boss of myself. However, recent questions from various people made me realize that not everyone wants the responsibility of their own business. Sometimes just an occasional gig or a part-time situation are just what is wanted. So I realize I need to think along the entire spectrum, from those who want to quit their day jobs to those who just want to earn a little extra part-time cash.

With that in mind, I compiled my Top Five list of the most useful online resources for finding work to do at home or for building your own business.

1. SiteBuildIt! (SBI) - Check out this tool... it's really incredible for building a website that really earns you an income. I can't recommend this tool enough for people wanting to have a website that sells!

2. HomeJobStop - The HomeJobStop Job Bank is an active job board specializing in telecommuting and work from home jobs. At this site, you will not find an exhaustive list of pyramid schemes, chain letters, or other well known schemes.  You will find a wide variety of professional, up-to-date job opportunities.

3. GoFreelance - one of the freelance sites that's been around for a long time. It's great for finding work!

4. eBay - earning money on eBay is as easy as listing stuff you no longer need.

Also, check out my article about eBay.

5. SurveyScout - You can earn cash and free stuff for filling out surveys. There are many good survey sites; SurveyScout is a great one to get started with.

In addition to those resources, please check out my articles for how-tos and ideas.
