Useful tips on how to create your own online business from scratch. Choosing a niche and further actions. Online business - ways to create relatively stable online earning schemes on the Internet

Do you want to continue to justify inaction by the lack of a good idea? Will not work. Below are all the currently possible online business ideas. Okay, almost everything. Read, choose, do.

A simple idea: open an online store. What to trade? Yes, anything: children's clothing, handmade goods, expensive cosmetics. Try to sell what you like and what you understand.

Service for creating mobile applications. We'll have to compete with TheAppBuilder and Appsmakerstore. But you will catch the wave of mobile transformation of the Internet.
Play poker online. What does this have to do with business? Professional players earn beautiful sums in foreign currency at the virtual table. Why poker and not chess, football or roulette? In chess and football, you make money offline, but in roulette, winnings depend on chance.
Start an online university. Teach people anything remotely: programming, journalism, design. Attract reputable lecturers. Make your university degree prestigious.
Service for sending posthumous messages. You don’t need to invent anything: just creatively rethink the idea of the British Last Messages Club. The service sends emails to family and friends when a club member dies. Something like this: “Water the flowers, walk with Barbos three times a day. Yes, the policy and cash are in the Sberbank safe deposit box.”
Warehouse outsourcing. Imagine the situation: you have an empty attic, and your neighbor has something that has nowhere to be stored, but would be a pity to throw away. Your neighbor pays 100 rubles a year to store rubbish in your attic. Here's a business idea: create an online service where owners of empty attics and junk can find each other.
Employment portal for people with special needs. This service will be in demand by employers and job seekers. Start thinking about how to monetize it.
Implement the idea within the framework of the Internet of Things concept. Get creative: Insert a wireless transmitter and display into your running shoes, water bottle, dog collar or baby diaper. Help clients count kilometers traveled, milliliters drunk, and remotely monitor the well-being of children and pets. Similar ideas often appear on Kickstarter, you can take a look there.

Find an unusual way to sell advertising online. Focus on the crazy ideas of the guys from Captive Media, try to outdo Tittygram.
Online restaurant. It's simple: the client goes to the website and orders food. You prepare the selected dishes, deliver them to the specified location and set the table. You can add a webcam so the client can watch the chef at work.
Service for the paranoid. Create a resource with which users can anonymously store and transmit information, work on the Internet and on a personal computer. Offer your audience a cloud service similar to Edward Snowden's hacker kit. Immediately think about how to convince clients that you are not from the CIA or FSB.
Monetize the need of smartphone and tablet owners to recharge their devices. You need devices that can be used to charge batteries in public places. For example, for the opportunity to feed a smartphone, ask the user to watch an advertisement, install an application, register on a website, etc.
Remote teacher search service. Sometimes parents do not have the strength, desire or ability to give their children enough attention. In such cases, adults often slip a tablet or computer into the hands of children: watch their cartoons, just leave them alone. If parents have money for a tablet and the Internet, let them fork out for an online teacher who will teach their child something useful via Skype.
Make money on Facebook. There are a whole lot of opportunities to make money from Zuckerberg’s brainchild. We have found for you a selection of 7 ways to make money on Facebook.

97-idey-internet-biznesa

Today, tens of thousands of people are looking for business ideas without investment on the Internet. But if you don’t lie, then you can’t start a business without any investments. But we tried to select ten interesting business ideas that require little money, accessible to most of our fellow citizens (even students and alcoholics). What was taken beyond the permissible limit was... a thousand rubles! True, many of these undertakings will require considerable labor costs. Well, and the presence of some means of production.

No. 1. Atelier at home or custom bow ties

If you have a sewing machine, your arms grow from a place closer to your head than to your legs, and you do not only cross-stitch, then this idea will suit you. And you can even spend a thousand rubles on the purchase of materials (fabric and thread). After all, you have a machine? Well, we’ll deal with advertising in the currently fashionable way - creating a group, public pages on social networks VKontakte, Facebook (less competition), as well as on thematic sites dedicated to fashion. You can do not just adjusting clothes or hemming curtains, but also sewing bow ties, ties and handkerchiefs, which is quite fashionable now. And you can have your own 10-30 thousand rubles of net income per month. Not bad for a student.

Labor costs
Advantages- Stability of earnings, quick start.
Flaws

No. 2. Mobile computer administrator

Do you know how to reinstall Windows? Do you know how to install an antivirus in ten minutes and what safe mode is? Can you imagine how to connect a mouse to a computer? No, you are not an administrator yet, but you can become one. It is advisable to have a laptop at hand. And also the effort to place dozens of advertisements on sites ranging from aggregators like Avito to social networks. Yes, you will find clients quickly. The cost of one visit, depending on labor costs, is 1 - 5 thousand rubles (possibly more). The flow of clients has begun - don’t refuse anyone, connect your friends who also understand this topic. Monthly income can be 30-60 thousand rubles.

Labor costs- about 3-9 hours a day, depending on the number of orders and the success of promotion.
Advantages- zero investment, a large number of potential clients.
Flaws- High density of competition; you really need to understand the topic.

No. 3. Food delivery to offices

This is where your culinary skills will come in handy. With the starting capital (1 thousand rubles) it is quite possible to buy ingredients for a set lunch for 8-10 people - just enough to feed a standard office. Based on 150-180 rubles per serving. Yes. Delivered lunches are not such a high-margin business. But you can fully count on your 25-40 thousand rubles a month. And if you also involve other “culinarians”...

Labor costs- about 4 hours a day depending on the number of orders.
Advantages- there will be clients for sure.
Flaws- it is necessary to conduct a real advertising “campaign” to attract customers in office centers.

No. 4. Photographer for anything

Do you have a good camera and a desire to take photographs? Don't your photos make your friends gag? You can become a photographer! Photo sessions, photo sets, erotic photography, love story, wedding photographer and much more: everything is in your hands. Proficiency in Photoshop is highly desirable! But the work is quite free and multifaceted. It’s better not to cooperate with the media - they pay frankly little. Monthly earnings range from 30 to 150 thousand rubles. You will have to do a lot of self-promotion.

Labor costs- from 1 to 12 hours a day. It all depends on the flow of clients!
Advantages- zero investment.
Flaws- you need to be a real professional in this matter, otherwise dissatisfied clients and competitors will do something bad to you.

No. 5. Husband/wife for an hour

More than 28% of families in Russia are single-parent. Moreover, if women need a strong male shoulder, then men lack comfort in their homes (and cleanliness). This type of business is not prostitution at all (or whatever you are thinking about). But to help women assemble this strange wardrobe not from Ikea, fix the bed, faucet, replace the wallpaper... Or tidy up the apartment of single men. Yes, there really is a demand for such services. The average bill is 1000-1500 rubles. Monthly income can reach 60-70 thousand rubles.

Labor costs- 2-3 hours a day.
Advantages- business without investment.
Flaws- you really need to be able to do something with your hands.

No. 6. Vkontakte community

Do you consider yourself an advertising guru, your posts are liked by friends and strangers, and in an attempt to avoid the flow of news from your feed, your acquaintances unfollow you? Then perhaps you should try yourself as a cool SMM person. Your income (let's look realistically) can range from 10 to 200 thousand rubles per month, depending on the activity of the audience and the number of participants in the group.

Labor costs- 1-10 hours a day.
Advantages- complete absence of investments, flexible schedule.
Flaws- you must be a really cool SMM person.

No. 7. real estate agency in its own right.

Searching for advertisements on city websites and open advertising platforms, a sea of “positive” from clients, the need to get discounts, preferences and the eternal search for buyers or sellers - all this and much more you can get by working as a realtor. Oh yes, dozens of calls are waiting for you. Get ready to be sent. But you will gain enormous experience in direct sales and handling objections.

Labor costs- from 5 to 12 hours a day.
Advantages- you will definitely meet the thousand rubles and learn how to sell. Income per month can be about 30 - 80 thousand rubles.

No. 8: Manicure at home

If you are a girl and are into manicure (or false nails) and have experimented with your friends, then you can be advised to open a beauty salon at home. For a thousand rubles, just buy expensive varnishes from Tiffany and or false nails. Feel like a cosmetologist!

Labor costs- from 3 to 8 hours a day
Advantages- high income. From 20 to 100 thousand rubles per month. It all depends on your skills and working hours.

No. 9 Loaders on call

Everyone always needs strong guys. And really for everyone - from private clients who just want to transport a piano, to small, medium and large companies that periodically or one-time need to lift, move something, and so on.

The second important point is that you don’t have to be a loader yourself. That is why the idea becomes twice as attractive.

First, you look for people who can perform these duties. The good thing is that no one will require special education or a license for such work. With these people, whose informal base can constantly change and be supplemented, you agree on a piece-rate payment option.

At a minimum, the business is ready after this. You simply look for orders and implement them. However, this method will be too superficial and will not bring good income.

It would be better to open an individual entrepreneur and open a current account. After all, if you plan to work with organizations, the invoice will help you avoid difficulties. Firms don’t like cash too much, otherwise there will be somewhere to transfer your payment.

Now, a little about how to search for orders. After all, without orders there is no point in all activities. There are several standard and simplest options:

We go to the World Wide Web and look for any organizations in our city. And then we simply call ahead and offer our services right now and for the future. You must leave your contact details. We warn you right away that the exhaust from cold ringing will be small. But it will. On average, 100-200 calls will provide you with one order. And then - progressively. Someone will remember you if necessary, someone will take note.
Simple announcements on boards and social networks. You can't go anywhere without this. Let your company's contacts be visible. Usually people do not hesitate to call at the slightest need, if only to find out the price.

Don't forget to think about the price. And before that, monitor the current prices in your city.

Labor costs- about 4-8 hours a day, depending on the number of orders and the success of promotion.
Advantages- There are always orders
Flaws- Low prices

No. 10 SMS informing parents about their children’s school attendance

As they say, a million-dollar idea, but with its own difficulties. And the safety of children is a topic that never ceases to be relevant.

The idea is to install special machines in schools and provide children with cards. When a child comes to and leaves school, he places his card on the machine. The parent immediately receives a notification about this on their phone.

Income is based on subscription fees for using the service. The service itself is completely voluntary and has nothing to do with the regular access system in schools.

The question arises - how to come to an agreement with parents and with the educational institution itself. Actually, it's not that complicated. School management will be interested in installation if two conditions are met. First, equipment for the school will be free. Secondly, at least some parents will support the idea.

It will be possible to reach an agreement with the parents if you immediately explain that this is a voluntary matter. And that no one will take extra from them. Only pay for the SMS messages themselves. In that case, many will agree that being aware of your child’s movements for a small fee is a good idea.

Business will naturally require investments, but, which is very good, small and quickly recouped. So, the equipment itself for one point will cost approximately 20 thousand. One card will cost 30 rubles. Cards can be issued to parents on bail. For example, 100 rubles. But this is precisely a deposit, not a purchase.

Next comes a monthly subscription fee. For example, the same 100 rubles. This will not be affordable, regardless of the family income level. Now a pack of cigarettes costs the same. Only smokers spend 100 rubles a day on this, not a month. One SMS message will cost a few kopecks.

According to statistics, 30 percent of parents perceive the idea very well. But the biggest difficulty is getting them to pay on time and not forget about it.

After launch, you will need to organize your work so that you can respond in a timely manner to changes in parents’ mobile phone numbers to which notifications will be sent. You can also quickly and inexpensively replace lost and broken children’s cards.

After launching in one school, installing equipment in others will be easier, because there will be a good working example. To understand how quickly this type of investment can be repaid, take 1,000 children per school as a point of calculation. This will give you a rough idea of your earnings level.
Advantages- Relevance of the topic
Flaws- Difficult to agree

No. 11Sale of bottled milk

Milk is one of those products for which demand never falls. Even during an unstable economic situation, when prices soar, leaving the income of the population far behind. Therefore, creating a business based on the needs of customers, simplifying the matter with a competitive product, is not too difficult. Moreover, milk, for example, from a barrel, can actually be sold cheaper than bottled milk in any chain hypermarket.

To start, you can purchase a barrel, for example, 500 liters. And these will be the only significant costs. If you are trying to save money, then it is more profitable to consider selling barrels from hand rather than from the manufacturer. In this case, you can spend 50-70 thousand rubles.

This barrel easily clings to the car and is easily transported from place to place. If you do not have a car, you can include someone in the scheme who can transport it by agreeing on a fixed amount for the trip.

The next main step is to find a supplier. This could be any farmer who is not too far away. The scheme of working with him is simple - every morning you take milk from him and make a payment on the spot.

However, it is important to remember here that the milk must be taken to the laboratory for analysis in order for you to be issued a certificate. And when everything is done, the milk and the certificate are in hand, you need to come to a specific point and sell (it would be better to hire a seller).

As for the price, it is quite possible to buy milk from farms at a price of 15-20 rubles per liter. Of course, in particular cases, everything will depend on the volume of goods. You need to sell it a little cheaper than the store price, but not much. Otherwise it will be unprofitable. For example, 30-odd rubles.

What you will need from the documentation:

Individual entrepreneur registration
Employment contract with the seller
Sanitary book for the seller
Papers about renting a place of trade
Product certificate

It’s better to rent a place near the market, or get permission from the city administration for a specific location.

Labor costs- about 8 hours a day

Advantages- Demand for the product is constant

Flaws- Lots of permissions required

No. 12 Rent of 4-wheeled bicycles

4-wheeled bicycles, or velomobiles as they are called, are an excellent type of family recreation in any park areas equipped with normal paths. Naturally, such units will not be specially purchased. But, as practice shows, renting is a popular idea. Moreover, one velomobile can accommodate up to 6 people. Therefore, the entertainment is interesting both for a family of several people and for a group of friends.

Park areas, embankments in cities, and recreational areas may be suitable for business. As for the price, on average, a Chinese-made velomobile will cost about 50 thousand rubles. However, there is a cheaper way - to find a craftsman who would make custom-made wheels himself. There is nothing complicated about this. But, of course, you have to look.

For those who have very limited funds, the option of installments or a loan may be suitable.

Once you have decided on a place, you need to understand who owns it. If it does not belong to a specific company or individual, then you will need to obtain permission from the city administration.

The rental price should be based on your costs, but you can’t go too far in this case, otherwise clients simply won’t respond even if they have the desire. For example, 100 rubles for a half hour drive is quite an adequate price for a more or less large city.

When organizing, remember that the client is required to take not only a fee, but also a deposit. Usually this is an identity document. Otherwise, you will quickly lose your “vehicle fleet”. If you want to completely protect yourself from theft, install a special device - a tracker that will show the coordinates of each velomobile.

If the rental is large enough, then it will be more profitable to hire additional staff who will work in shifts.

Labor costs- about 4-6 hours a day

Advantages- Wide audience
Flaws- In large cities there is already high competition + seasonality

#13 Freight transportation without costs

The idea is based on the fact that you do not need your own freight transport. Because you will be working with hired drivers who have their own trucks.

In fact, there are a lot of drivers who could respond to your request. This is due to the fact that searching for customers is not the most pleasant experience and many limit themselves to simply advertising the opportunity to hire themselves with their own transport. Not everyone gets into the advertising jungle either.

How exactly to work with drivers is up to you. The main thing is to agree in advance. Some people prefer piecework based on the number of hours they are employed. Others calculate mileage. It may be easier to set your own percentage. That is, you find a customer and transfer him to a specific driver, who, having completed the work and received the money, gives you the agreed portion.

Finding customers is not as difficult as it seems. There are several common options:

Calling organizations in your city
Paper advertisements around the city
Specialized sites on the Internet

When talking with a client, be sure to fully voice your terms. And when the customer gives his consent, immediately discuss all the details - place, time, cargo itself, additional conditions and wishes, phone numbers and responsible persons.

Even if the client is a “one-time” one, save his contacts, in this way you will ensure that you have your own customer base, to whom you can re-offer your own services and inform about promotions.

Labor costs- full time on the phone

Advantages- Standing orders
Flaws- High density of competition.

No. 14 Sale of berries and fruits from Thailand

At first glance, the idea may seem strange. After all, we have not been living behind the Iron Curtain for a long time. And trips to exotic places, where you can enjoy such things, are not so outrageously unattainable. However, in an era of economic crisis, as statistics show, many people prefer to postpone their vacation until the future. And in fact, a very large percentage of the population does not travel outside our country.

Therefore, organizing a business selling “specific products” from hot countries is a completely feasible task. The main thing here is to find a supplier. The problem is that those who constantly work with the delivery of goods from other countries and can help with the preparation of all documents do not deal with goods in small volumes. And they won’t take on small batches. Therefore, you will have to spend time and effort searching.

Another option is to find a person who will buy goods in a specific country and send it to you by air. Naturally, payment will be negotiable.

The price at which you will sell products in Russia will have to consist of several factors. For example, customs costs, production costs, buyer's fees, and postal interest will be affected. But the most important thing is the time it takes for the product to deteriorate. The smaller it is, the greater the percentage of markup on the price tag you will need to add. Because the loss of part of the goods in such a business is an inevitable fate.

The assortment can be completely diverse, unlike in a store, where you often won’t find anything other than a couple of items. So, you can start selling the following dishes:

And this is not a complete list of what is possible. Naturally, over time you will be able to optimize the range depending on the results.
Advantages- Unusuality, the ability to target an audience with a high level of income.
Flaws- Possible difficulties with customs

No. 15 Sale of waste from production and expired products

A strange idea for making money nevertheless has a completely working scheme behind it. The fact is that many food products, when they expire, are simply disposed of. Naturally, factories and companies that have to throw away a product that has not passed the sales stage spend some money on these processes. It is necessary to pay for transportation, disposal itself, and the work of the people involved in this matter. Naturally, it would be more profitable for them to get rid of these expenses if someone took away or bought such products.

The question is - for what? It's simple. If you take, for example, bread that is already subject to disposal, then you need to keep in mind that it is still suitable. As an option - for cattle feed on numerous farms. The same is true for the confectionery industry.

Therefore, your task is to find a “supplier” of such products. If you go to the factory, you may encounter a refusal. Because, alas, some productions use an expired product, breaking it down into ingredients, which are subsequently mixed into a new fresh batch of the same product.

But, of course, not everyone does this. Therefore, among several plants and factories you will definitely be able to find a supplier.

It is better to start solving the problem with accounting. This is where price approval takes place. It is also possible to agree on payment of a symbolic price on your part. Up to 1 ruble per kilogram of product. But there will definitely be a price tag.

Once a supplier is found, it will not be difficult to find a buyer. A small price for your product will help with this. Start with advertisements on profile portals. You can also visit farms in person to reach an agreement. Over time, regular customers will participate in this scheme.

Labor costs- about 8 hours a day

Advantages- Low cost of goods
Flaws- Graphic density

No. 16 Cosmetic repairs of apartment building entrances

The scheme of this type of business is based on contracts with management companies and housing offices. The fact is that the departments themselves often do not have their own teams of workers who will carry out the orders. And, considering how many houses even in small towns need to be monitored, the work is ongoing. The housing office is likely to turn to hired teams. This is the kind of hired brigade that you will have to assemble that is ready to take on orders. And this will be the first step.

Finding a person who can perform certain construction and repair work will not be difficult. If you don’t have such friends among your friends, look for advertisements, there are a lot of them now. To begin with, a small staff of 2-3 people will be enough.

The second step is to determine the price of the work. It is better if your team includes a builder or repairman who already knows the value of his employment. This way, when communicating with a potential customer, you can immediately announce the price tags. This is important so that the client does not “fly off”. If difficulties arise with this, contact construction companies. They usually provide consultations for free.

After this, all that remains is to find the housing office that needs a brigade and discuss the conditions with it. It is important to enter into a contract once the terms have been agreed upon so that you can receive payment. Part of the funds will go to pay your team, and part will go to you.

As an addition to this business or its expansion, you can make money by transporting and delivering building materials.

Labor costs- Constant communication in person and by phone
Advantages- Standing orders
Flaws- Competition and bureaucracy

No. 17 Dry fog as a remedy for odors

Dry fog is so named because the device that is used to eliminate odors splashes out a special air suspension that looks exactly like fog. In fact, the mixture has a special composition that is sprayed in the form of microscopic crystals. They are able to penetrate even the smallest holes and gaps, simultaneously absorbing any odors.

The dry fog sprayer is not bulky at all. Like a vacuum cleaner, it can be carried with one hand. The cost of such a unit varies between 20-30 thousand rubles.

In addition to the device itself, as a consumable, you will need to purchase the liquid itself, from which the “miracle machine” will generate fog. The cost of one bottle is about 100 rubles. It is enough for about 1 whole car, if you need to remove the smell from the car.

The odor removal procedure takes about forty minutes. In experienced hands - even less. Dry mist can deal with many odors. For example, it calmly removes the old smell of tobacco in the cabin. According to statistics, you don’t have to think about the appearance of this smell after the procedure for at least a whole month.

When building a business, you don’t need to inflate the price tag for the procedure, this way you will get more clients. 500 rubles at a time will be quite enough. The main thing to remember is that in order to achieve the effect, you must first remove the object that is the source of the smell. So, if it is a spoiled, rotten product, then you first need to remove it, and then begin the cleaning procedure.

Another important detail is the raid. It can form when a mist suspension settles. Therefore, you should remember safety precautions when covering important elements with film.

Prices for services are usually based on area. The larger the room where you want to remove the smell, the higher the price tag for the procedure.

Advantages- Low competition
Flaws- Difficult search for clients

No. 18 Sale of waste from livestock farms

We have already discussed the possibility of making money by selling expired products from food production to farmers. But from these same farmers you can also find goods for subsequent sale to another buyer.

We are talking about animal waste products from farms. They are usually stored close to the farm itself. Of course, there are those who do the export and sale themselves, but not everyone can devote the time.

In order to transport waste from the “supplier” to the customer, you will first need a suitable truck. There are several options here. Firstly, in the village located next to the farm there may be a suitable vehicle. And together with the driver. And given that in villages the income level is usually lower than in the city, payment can be easily negotiated.

Secondly, you can buy a car yourself. Moreover, a supported one is best suited. Because you will be transporting manure and because there is no point in spending large sums on a new car from the very beginning of the business.

After the issue with the vehicle is resolved, you will need to negotiate directly with the farmer, who always has the goods in stock. And since without such offers the farmer has to remove the waste himself, it will not be difficult to come to an agreement with him.

The further stage of setting up the business is associated with the workers who will load the “material” into the machine. Again, it is worth hiring people, either living in a nearby village, or the farm workers themselves.

The last step is to find a buyer. Such waste is good as fertilizer for plants. Therefore, the main audience to target is the owners of crop farms and summer residents. In the second case, you can park a car with manure on the necessary days directly at the entrance to the dacha communities. Then the clients themselves will ask you about the cost of the manure you sell. Or you can use standard methods - posting advertisements and the Internet.

According to statistics, the cost of one manure truck varies between 2000 rubles. In successful cases, more than one truck of manure can be sold in a day.

Labor costs- Full time work

Advantages- There are always suppliers
Flaws- "Dirty job

No. 19 Meeting people during quests

This idea combines two popular services among people. Quest rooms are currently a popular entertainment and dating service, which, judging by numerous dating sites, will never lose popularity.

The gaming environment and new sensations always encourage closer cooperation even between complete strangers. Therefore, the idea deserves attention. Naturally, the search for potential clients in this case is primarily carried out via the Internet. And even if, during the process of playing the game in real time, people did not have the opportunity to find a partner, a good time will not leave them in a bad mood. Clients will still be happy.

Advantages- Combination of two popular ideas
Flaws- Competition

No. 20 Advertising on your own windows

We have all become accustomed to seeing advertising everywhere - from newspapers to street advertisements on banners and even simple poles. Advertising today is the engine of any business and advertisers are constantly looking for new effective platforms. This means that finding a client among those who need to place their advertisement is a matter of time and desire.

Recently, the idea of offering advertising space on your own windows and balconies of residential buildings has begun to develop. If you are a person who is ready to sacrifice your “glass” or space on the facade for the sake of earning money, then you should think about this method.

There is no point in describing how to find a client; first of all, you need to be able to offer and not be afraid to communicate. But for those who lack such skills, there is an easier way to unobtrusively sell their place. You can organize a small billboard where, before an advertisement from a specific company or person appears, your inscription about the sale of this very advertising space will hang.

It all depends on your creativity. Alternatively, you can write popular words: “your advertisement may be here.” And it’s natural to add a telephone number under this slogan. In this case, there is a high probability that the client will find you himself. Especially if the place you are offering is really well suited, that is, it is viewed from the outside and will be visible to a large number of people.

Labor costs- Almost not

Advantages- Passive income
Flaws- You will have to sacrifice your windows or facade

Hello, dear readers of the blog site. The bourgeois word “business,” which denotes business activity with the goal of creating a sustainable source of income, in some aspects diverges from the things that I wrote about in articles about which it may be right for you. There we mainly talked about making money, and not about online business, although to some extent these concepts intersect.

The most popular options for doing business online

That’s why today I want to highlight a number of the most popular areas of effort when trying to make money from the Internet.

The first thing that probably comes to mind when talking about online business is this internet commerce. Obviously, if almost the entire active (in terms of purchasing power) population spends quite a lot of time on the Internet, then where, if not there, should they offer their goods and services. The idea is sound, and many online stores, which at one time became the founders of fashion (for example, refrigerator.ru), now earn quite decent money.

But competition in this niche is quite high, including due to the fact that offline businesses also use the Internet as a means to attract customers (along with other methods). But it’s quite possible to earn a living from this. Another thing is that, as for me, an online store is not so much an online business as an offline business, because in addition to the area of attracting customers to the site (using SEO, contextual advertising, etc.) that is very interesting to me, there are also purely offline aspects (delivery of goods, communication with customers, receiving complaints, etc.). It is the presence of the other side of this coin that stops me from applying strength in this direction.

Particular attention here should be paid to the niche in which you plan to work. What made great money just five years ago may now turn out to be a “dead number”. The ideal option, of course, would be to find a niche that is not yet occupied in RuNet, but there is already demand. In this case, your online commerce will have a very high chance of success.

The second important question, after choosing the niche of your future online business, will be the choice of the method of technical implementation of the online store website and how to attract customers to it.

There are a lot of engines for Ekomerts and even . Some of them are paid (for example, ), some are free (for example, and ). But all of them have their own advantages and disadvantages, which makes it difficult to choose. For example, one of my friends has been selecting an engine for several years now (he went through them all, and already went for the second round), but he has not created a store.

As for the issue of attracting visitors to your online business oasis, there are two main and a number of auxiliary methods. It’s possible (in RuNet this is mostly the case), but competition in many topics is very high and you need to be able to optimize advertising in order to get the maximum return for a minimum investment. I talked about something like this in the articles linked just above.

Online services - automated provision of services

However, you can sell not only goods but also services online. Option automated running this type of business on the Internet can be characterized as online services. The main question here is to bring a successful idea to life and be one of the first on the market in order to attract the target audience as easily as possible.

An example would be numerous exchanges (link exchanges, exchanges for selling websites, etc.) or services for checking the position of a site, or backlinks leading to it, etc. of things. All these examples are from the field of website building and their promotion (read about), but you can also find a lot of examples from other topics.

The main thing, as I already mentioned, is the idea and its economic justification (how many people are willing to pay for the services you provide or for intermediary actions as an exchange). Special investments may not be required (only to attract programmers and other developers), because when running an online business in the form of services, such a thing as an affiliate program works great.

Information website - as an option for running an Internet business online

And, of course, I can’t help but mention the option of an online business when the main source of your income is information site. I emphasize that this is precisely an information project, which, unlike the Internet commerce and online services described earlier, is not initially a commercial enterprise, i.e. They don’t sell anything there (neither goods nor services). Well, or they sell, but this is not the main activity of this project.

They make money on such projects by advertising. It turns out to be an analogue of a television channel, where they show films, programs and other nonsense for free, but at the same time they also show advertising. Accordingly, earnings on an information site will most likely be directly proportional to its popularity, i.e. the number of visitors who visit it during the day.

Of course, the level of income with the same traffic may differ depending on the topic of the resource. It is clear that advertising on a real estate website will cost more than on a gaming portal. But it’s much easier to increase the latter’s attendance. This is a double-edged sword.

Concerning monetization of such projects. As a rule, in the first year or two it will be better to simply promote and develop it, without placing much emphasis on monetization, because the possible income during this period will still be too small. But with the growing popularity and attendance, it’s worth thinking about these:

from Yandex or Google. In the first case, you will need to register and (the reverse side of Direct), and in the second case, it is worth learning the principles of working with. For most projects (from this area of online business) this will be the most profitable and preferred option for making money, but not for everyone.
It will also be possible to earn money by posting. It is best to place banners from direct advertisers, but they are not always easy to find, so indirect placement from advertising networks on such as AdvMaker (read), Pingmedia, RotaBan or Nolix is also possible. However, I advise you to be careful with formats such as popunders and clickanders, because for this you can get a penalty from search engines. Although there are sites on which other media advertising options will not work at all, so you have to take risks.
If banners and context do not work, then you can try. But here you need to be careful, because Yandex is now banning sites for shock advertising, and you need to choose a teaser network very carefully so that it is possible to filter shock ads.
. I have a website that I can’t monetize in any way except by selling eternal links from it (on the GGL, Getgoodlinks, Rotapost exchanges), as well as by posting paid articles on it (on the Miralinks and Webartex exchanges). At the same time, the site is developing successfully and its traffic is growing. However, if the development of the site is neglected, then excessive sale of links (especially in exchanges like Sapa) can lead to its pessimization in search engines.
. It makes sense to look for ones that will allow you to monetize your existing traffic. There are a lot of them (for example, the “My Business” affiliate program for monetizing financial traffic or the Admitad affiliate program aggregator with offers for every taste). There are even options (flow of users accessing your site via mobile devices).

Services for promotion, creation, promotion of websites, etc.

A little higher, we looked at a business option built on automating the provision of services with access via the Internet, and we conventionally called it online services. But services can be provided in manual (or semi-automatic) mode. For example, it could be an SEO company, a design studio for developing website templates, a social media promotion company, etc.

This type of activity can be classified as an online business precisely because the services provided are needed to achieve the desired effect on the Internet. Those. here you can write down all commercial projects whose vector of efforts extends to the global web.

Among these options for creating your own online business are:

If in studios, campaigns and offices they essentially work as a team, then a freelancer undertakes to do the same (or only part) alone. This . Freelancing online is very common, or rather, it became so widespread precisely thanks to the popularization of the Internet.

Not long ago I wrote on this topic in an article where the following questions were raised:

It outlined the main topics in which the freelance guild is most represented, and also gave advice on which sites are best to use to find work and what principles to follow for successful promotion and building a pool of regular clients.

Freelancing is convenient for those people who prefer to run a business on their own and are not inclined to work in a team (for example, this suits me). It also allows you to find a well-paid job if you live in the outback and don’t want to move and change your lifestyle for offline work. As I already mentioned, doing business online allows you to eliminate any distances that may arise between the customer and the contractor. I can recommend it to beginners.

Information business, online seminars, coaching, training, etc.

— this is the creation of some kind of training courses and programs and their subsequent distribution via the Internet. This type of online business also includes all sorts of trainings, online seminars, and other options for distance learning via the Internet. Again, here, as a rule, not only the authors of courses can earn money, but also those who are committed to distributing them (through an affiliate program). If you decide to do this, I advise you to pay attention to the system JustClick, which includes a full set of tools (affiliate program, store, email newsletter service, etc.).

For example, at one time I created a page “” to distribute the creation. I won’t say now that these are the best courses, but they were the ones that helped me create my first website. On many topics that are of interest to users, it is very difficult to find any offline training courses, but online business leaves virtually no blank spots in the educational field. Another thing is that among the available offers there is a lot of hackwork and outright deception, which seriously reduces customer confidence and somewhat sobers up those who would like to feed themselves in this field.

Results

To summarize, I would like to say that if you have the streak of a businessman in you, then be sure to consider the online sector of making efforts. There is plenty of room to roam around here, and if the business idea turns out to be original and successful, then you can “rise up” very quickly. But even simple adherence to the rules and hard work can lead you to an acceptable result.

If I forgot to mention another online business option that you consider promising at the moment, it would be great if you whispered it in our ear in the comments...

Good luck to you! See you soon on the pages of the blog site

1) Social networks

The right solution would be to actively use social networks to promote your business. Statistics show that more than 80% network users have their own pages on social networks and use them at least 2 hours a day.

The main ways to promote a business using social networks are:

Placing quality information in optimal quantity.Important components– unique and captivating style of writing texts, as well as preferably emotional transmission of information, without an obvious advertising focus. Filling the page with new posts should be regular, depending on the area of activity it can amount to from 2-3 texts per day up to the same amount per week.

An online business from scratch is just a business, not much different from any other. The same principles, rules and guidelines apply to him.
At the very beginning, you must soberly consider why you need all this. After all, promotion and promotion will take a lot of time.

According to our experience, it takes 1-1.5 years of hard and focused work until it begins to generate any significant income. One that you could live on. Plus, there will no longer be a boss chasing you around. And it’s quite difficult to motivate yourself to do hard work.

Also, what you choose for yourself as a product should greatly inspire you. Otherwise, your online business from scratch will not survive the first real difficulties.

In addition to an inspiring idea, you need a financial goal that you will achieve in the same year and a half. Income from the business should range from 200,000 to 500,000 rubles. Otherwise, all efforts are simply pointless. There is a fairly simple method for more accurately determining the amount. Multiply your current monthly income by 10. The resulting figure will become your goal.

Becoming an entrepreneur requires some skills and knowledge. Key business skills lie in sales and negotiations. You will also need good knowledge of the product.

Here are 4 parting words, following which from the very beginning will save you from many problems and bitter disappointments.

1. When it comes to your first business, choose as an object of trade only what you are well versed in. Even the famous billionaire investor Warren Buffett does not invest his money in areas he does not understand. This doesn't mean you'll never expand your horizons and do something different. But for the first voyage, well-known fairways are best suited.

2. Never spend money on your first business that was set aside for other strategic goals - housing, training, a financial safety net. Don't take loans.

3. It would be good to love what you are going to do.

4. Don't make everything perfect. Idealism sometimes plunges people into unnecessary expenses. Minimize your initial investment as much as possible. And don’t try to do everything right away - you’ll just waste time.
