In the economic climate of today most of us are constantly thinking about how to increase our income.
 This applies to people regardless if they are employed or seeking employment.
How life has changed.
 Years ago you were fully aware that if you worked hard at school and received good exam results you would then go on and take an apprenticeship and this meant you were going to be financially secure.
It certainly is not like this now, there are apprenticeships out there but once these are completed you have to be very lucky to stay in the job or get another position.
More and more we are looking at ways to increase our income.
 The arrival of the internet has certainly shown a new concept in how to make money, it has given us the opportunity to increase our income from home.
The internet has opened up a whole new world of making money, you do not have to be a university graduate or a computer wizard in order to increase your income online.
 Although you certainly do not have to be a genius I really do not want you to think it is easy.
 It takes a considerable amount of time and patience to earn money online.
If you are the ordinary man in the street you will find increasing your income online takes up a huge amount of you time to be begin with and to be perfectly honest if you are not prepared to put the time in then you just as well not waste your time thinking about making money on the internet.
There are people who have made huge amounts of money on the internet and they live a lifestyle you can only dream about and I know they state they only work for a few hours a day.
 They work for a few hours a day now but not when they first started.

6 simple rules to follow:

1.  You need to build a website but there are some free websites available
2.  To earn money online you have to promote a product, not necessarily you own product
3.  Choose the correct keywords, these are vitally important because the keywords are going to drive customers to your site.
