1. Affiliate/Internet Marketing. Learning how to sell stuff online is a very lucrative career choice, and once you learn the profession, it is easy to make a LOT of money. Simply sign up as an affiliate for one of millions of affiliate programs, and get paid a commission on all sales you generate.
2. Network Marketing (also known as Multi-level Marketing or MLM). Traditionally Network marketing was a direct sales type of opportunity. While this model had gained significant credibility over the years, the Internet has opened up a whole new realm of possibilities for this profession. Most Network Marketing companies provide their distributors with excellent Internet marketing tools, websites, landing pages, banner ads, pre-written email marketing campaigns, etc. Once you have mastered one or two Internet Marketing techniques, finding a good MLM company to represent could give you a vehicle to earn many thousands dollars per month, on a residual ongoing basis. This is a business, not a job, and there will be some initial and ongoing business expenses to incur. The Online network marketing offers an massive income potential for the hardworking, teachable, entrepreneurial minded.

But few people earn as much as the hype promises and it is not a dependable way to earn a steady online income.
5. Freelance writers. (There is a great demand for skilled writers).

8. Transcription/editing jobs
9. Home-based customer service agents.
Remember when you investigating any "work from home" ideas to do your due diligence. Find out all you can about the job and/or company before you commit or give any personal information. If there is no phone number for you to talk to a live person, consider looking for something else. Do not believe any program that promises overnight riches, or wealth without you having to work for it. It won't be true.
If it is your own online business you wish to start, either as an Affiliate Marketer, Network Marketing, or your own product/service, there WILL be some costs associated. Internet marketing training, websites and hosting, email auto-responders, etc. cost money and necessary tools of the trade. But the Internet allows you to start a business with a few hundred dollars, not the thousands of dollars it takes to start and operate a traditional business. A work from home JOB shouldn't cost anything, but the income potential is much more limited.
We are living in a new Global economy, and while jobs in the real world may be scarce, online works abounds. While the global job market continues to teeter on the edge of disaster, millions of people online are learning a whole new profession, and becoming very wealthy. Just as the world went from: the Agricultural Age to - the Industrial Age to - the current Information and Technology Age, we are now rapidly transitioning from a job centered economic platform, to home-business. Of course there will always be need for real world workers and people who have jobs. And there will always be people who wish to remain in those traditional roles. But there is definitely a huge transition taking place & one thing is clear..the future is bright!
