with a $40 budget?

FACT: I have found that buying resell rights to quality
digital products is by far the easiest & cheapest way
to start a successful online business.

1) Find a product to sell. Average cost: $30

You can buy resell rights to quality information & software
Products for as little as $30. A quick search for the terms
"resell rights" on any major search engine will produce
plenty of product offers for you to choose from.

Once you have bought the product/resell rights you will be
able to sell the product yourself and keep 100% of the
profits every time. Another advantage of selling digital
products online is that they costs nothing to deliver.
Translation: huge profit margins.

2) Design your sales page. Average cost: $0.

That is right, $0. Most, if not all, digital products for
which resell rights are available come with a professional
ready to take order websites. This means that as soon as
you buy resell rights to a product -- not only will you have a
product of your own -- but you will also have a
professionally designed sales page to help you
start selling your product immediately.

3) Setup credit card processing on your website. Average cost: $0

There are various ways to this; however, since we are
trying to keep our expenses to a minimum we are going to
use paypal.

Visit www.paypal.com and open an account. Their website is
very well designed and it does an awesome job of guiding
you through the registration process. NOTE: paypal will
setup your merchant account at no cost but will deduct 1.9%
+ $0.30 transaction fee.

4) Find a website host and upload your sales pages. Average
starting cost: $13.

Well, you can do this for free but I wouldn’t recommend it.
I suggest that you choose www.godaddy.com because they are
highly reliable. Note that I am not affiliated with godaddy
in any way; I advocate them because I am a customer myself
and I have experienced nothing but 100% top service. You
can register a ".COM" domain for as little as $8.95 per
year and get hosting for only $3.95 per month.

If you choose to get free hosting, go with freewebs.com.
They provide free bannerless web hosting, which is
extremely rare to find.

5) Promote your website products.

Now that you have completed steps 1 trough 4 you need to
drive traffic to you website. I suggest that you start by
advertising on free classified sites, joining free traffic
and banner exchange programs, join list builders, use free
email safelists as well as other similar programs.

Note: Although it is not free -- I suggest that you start a
Pay Per Click Campaign at any of the top search engines in
order to drive highly targeted visitors to your site/s.
Overture, Google Adwords and Findwhat.com are my top picks
for this type of marketing.

Final Thought.

There you have it: a fully functional online business in 5
easy steps and for under $40. Always keep in mind that
knowledge is money... the more knowledge you have the more
profits you will rake in. Always keep learning about
internet marketing, stay focused and never quit.

Celebrex Law Suits Looking Like a Strong Case

By N/A | Published 12/31/1969 | Law | Rating:
There is no data as yet that indicates how many former patients of Pfizer's anti-inflammatory and painkilling drug are filing Celebrex law suits, but given the magnitude of the company's perceived crime it is likely that there will be very many. And even a quick perusal of the alleged behaviour of the company regarding this drug seems to point to Celebrex law suits being something of a fait accompli.

Checked Into Nirvana. Where Is Joy?

By N/A | Published 12/31/1969 | Metaphysical | Rating:
Eckhart Tolle lived upto his twenty ninth year in a state of almost continual anxiety interspersed with periods of suicidal depression. Then he woke up one night with a feeling of absolute dread. The silence of the night, the vague outlines of the furniture in the dark room, the distant noise of a passing train - everything felt so alien, so hostile, and so utterly meaningless that it created in him a deep loathing of the world. "I cannot live with myself any longer." This was the thought that kept repeating itself in his mind. Suddenly he became aware that if he could not live with himself, there had to be two - he and the "self" he could not live with. He was stunned by the realization. He became enveloped by powerful feelings.
