Can You Start Your Own Work From Home Business Without a Website?

Yes you can.. BUT it's like doing a 'Fred Flintstone' and driving your car without the use of an engine, just using your feet to push the car along. It does the job, just takes a heck of long time to get to where you are going. Or you can get an engine (website in this case) to speed up the process.

If you are still adamant that you want to promote your work from business without the use of a website then here are some options for you.

Writing Articles or blogs
You can write articles or blogs and publish them in the free article directories. You can place your affiliate links in the text of your articles. Your content has to be of good quality, informative and not a sales pitch. Place them in directories that get large traffic volumes so you can get as much exposure to your content as possible. The more clicks you get to your link the more the number of sales. It's just a numbers game.

Writing free e-books
This is your ethical bribe. 'I will swap you for this really interesting FREE report that will add value to you, in return for your email address, NO MONEY, just an email address for me to send this great report to'. Now don't think you can produce a pile of monkey crap and give it away. No No No my friend. If you provide monkey crap guess what they will think of you?? So your email may have the best offer in the world but if they think of you as... then it will get deleted before it's even been read. These e-books have be easy to read and helpful for their readers.

Offline Promotion methods
These are things like the classified ads, flyers etc. The best choice is the classified ads because its exposure is HUGE.

Email Marketing
This is how you can promote your affiliate links. So if people click on your affiliate links in your emails they will be taken directly to the merchant website to purchase the products. But if they don't buy you have no way of following up with them, likewise if they do buy you are in the same predicament. The email should contain the introduction to the product you are promoting and your affiliate links. The purpose of the email is the create the curiosity in the customer to want to open the link, don't list the features of the product, list the benefit.

To try an d get the email address's in the first place you could try using online forums, chat forums etc to make new friends. Famous last words for any male but it is not the size that matters but the quality. Having a huge list of emails is not the aim. The aim is to have a quality list. Don't send emails to people who are not interested in your offer. Otherwise they will just block your emails and you will lose your contacts.

Forums Contributions
Register for 3 to start with, but make sure they have a high page rank and are related to the market you have chosen. no point joining a forum designed for knitting if you area of interest is car racing. Register on these forums and either kick start some discussion in the forums or add good comments to existing discussions. Just post your questions there or answer some questions of other members. Warning - do not use this as a way to promote your link or offer!!!. You are allowed to put your signature at the end of your post so do your promotion there.

Final thoughts
These are great methods that will work, in time. BUT if you have a website and use these methods just imagine the results people!! Remember the Fred Flintstone scenario?
