Well there's a lot of people chipping in with suggestions. I would also suggest you may be interested in working from home for a virtual call or contact center. It's a legitimate work from home JOB opportunity. Positions include everything from customer service to sales. Hope this helps!

There's a lot of great info here! Just remember, it all depends on what interests you! You need to enjoy what you're doing to be successful at it. There are many different work from home options.
First of all, you need to decide: Do you want a JOB (working for someone else within their guidelines, their hours, etc.) or do you want to start your own BUSINESS (will require some money and perserverance)? You can do either type whether you are a WAHM, a WAHD, disabled, etc.!!!
If you want a JOB, you should NOT have to pay for it!!! There are a lot of scams offering great wages and hours for a job that never pay out (surverys, craft assembly, etc.) They make their money in the sign-up fees.
If you want to start an affiliate business, check it out thoroughly also! Does it offer a real product? If you don't do well, will you still be okay with the money you spent? (Maybe you love the product so much that even if you don't sell anything, you're still okay with taking the risk - i.e. travel site - you still get discounted travel for life.)
So how do you know if your job or business opportunity is a SCAM?? I would still check out ripoffreport.com but be weary of the comments. If there are multiple comments by different people, take it more serious than by just 1 person. Scam.com is the same type of site. I would also check out forums like this one!!! Scammers will still promote their stuff in forums so check for multiple entries by different users to get a good feel for your job or business opportunity. Also, check out the BBB and the internet version of BBB (sorry - can't recall it right now!). Above all, use your gut instincts!! The biggest scam that I fell for left me with sleepless nights, etc. Now, I try to help others not fall for those same scams or other scams!
Also, if they push you and state that the offer is only available on THAT phone call, then HANG UP!!!! If it's that great of an offer and a legitimate company, the same offer (or very close) will be available tomorrow, or a week from now, or a month from now. Take your time in researching it first! This also applies to the web sites that state "you will only see this page one time ever." If you clear your cookies, you may see the page again. If not, you can always go to the library or use someone else's computer to get the same offer. They use that as a gimic to rope you in.
Now, if you are a risk taker and love to take chances, you may want to check out more options without as much research. Just remember that you need to be comfortable with losing any money you invest if it ends up to be a scam!
All these tips (including by others in these posts) apply to marketing strategies as well!!! There are scammers that will get your hard-earned money by selling you great-sounding marketing packages to get your site at the top of the search engines or to get guaranteed clicks, etc. Most of these are scams. Do your research on marketing as well!
Another option is to create your own web site! You can create an e commerce store with drop shipping, or sell your own product, or just provide info regarding something that interests you! Maybe you want to move or expand your existing business online!
The web is always expanding and your options are endless! There are so many options out there I wish you all luck in finding something that fits you AND isn't a scam!

Neisa, will tell you a thing that i am a single mom. I have been in service for a small firm in my area as an operator. The earning wasnt enough for me and my 5 year old son (a year ago). Then i started looking for small online business, where by investing little time, I can have a stable income. I have tried my hand at everything, from content developing to affiliate marketing.
Recently, I came across http://www.makethatdollar.com and will tell you that it has been giving me substantial income for spending very little time. Probably, it might work for your needs too....Have a look at it....
Or else try your hand at content developing, as it is another chance of earning good for a mother, who has very little time to offer..

Hello,
You can try to make your own tuition agency. In my country we can do it without (often) leaving our house because basically you only need to make calls to arrange the students & the tutors, a bit of interviews and advertise on the internet.

I have tried several work from home jobs that did not pan out. But I finally found a a legitimate work from home opportunity that works. I have been having very good success with it. I have my own coach who is also working and succeeding at this. I think the support is probably the biggest reason for my success

Hi Neisa. I think that when your searching for a work at home opportunity, you should first examine what you like to do. Maybe you enjoy talking on the phone, so a at home customer service position would be great, or maybe you enjoy writing and could do some freelance online. I searched for awhile until I was able to find something I enjoyed doing, don't worry you will too.

Hi, I too am a single mom. I have a real job so to speak, but I don't like it. I was sitting at home one day and just typed in work from home and wow, was I overwhelmed. I got scammed a couple of times and then I stumbled on this forum. I studied and read the posts and topics here for weeks. You would be amazed at how you get a feel for things by doing this. I have found a few things here and also discovered that some of it is not for me. I put a lot of thought into what areas I am knowledgeable in. Then I put up a blog, posted an article, all of which I did for free. I could not have done in without those people in this forum.
I have made a little money in the last couple of weeks, by no means enough to live on, but its a start. I have several projects going, but have found I have to just focus on one at a time. When I get this one down, I will go on to another and another and hopefully keep them all rolling.
One place to start for ideas is clickbank. Tons of ebooks on all kinds of subjects. Maybe something there will spark your interest. I also went to ezine articles and just clicked through the articles and viewed other's sales pages, then it just started to finally make sense, but it took time, lots of time.
Best of luck. There are lots of free resources out there to teach you the basics. And lots of great people here too. Just ask a question, they will answer.

Hi, finding a legitimate work at home business is hard to do just because there are so many business opportunities out there and sometimes it's hard to tell which ones are scams. The ones I use are in my signature and they are working for me, as well as for lots of other people. It does take work to get these businesses going, but after you put in a little work you will start to see results.
I hope you find something that works for you. Working from home has been a dream come true.

Hiya!! I'm relatively new here as well, but I have so far found a ton of great information on here. Affiliate marketing is the best way to make money from home. You can start out doing surveys and ad clicking to make a little money. It's not A LOT but its better than nothing right? Good luck to you!
