Everyone wants to be their own boss, but not many people do anything about it. Are there legitimate self-employment opportunities? Or are the home-based businesses you read about online just a scam?
In today’s world, there are definitely many ‘real’ self-employment opportunities available. The thing to remember is that “elf employment” does not mean “easy”. There is a huge misconception on the internet that any kind of freelance opportunity is easy or a get rich scheme. For whatever reason, every market on the Internet has decided to oversell and underdeliver. In turn, this has given legitimate home business opportunities a bad name.
The best self-employment opportunities are. . . . drum roll please.

I want to focus on what I think is the best and most lucrative online job opportunity.
Affiliate marketing
What’s affiliates marketing? It is simply a system in which a company allows people to promote their products and in return they receive a commission for each product they sell. To register with an affiliated company, you simply need:
1. Find a niche or genre that you would like to promote.
2. Find a company within that niche that has an affiliate program.
3. Go to your affiliate page and enter your details.
4. You should then receive your own affiliate link, which is a web page that has your products on it.
5. Then it is your job to send traffic to that web page.
6. Every person who enters your affiliate page will be tracked via a ‘cookie’ (don’t worry if you don’t understand what a cookie is. I don’t and I still get big monthly checks).
7. When the customer buys a product, he will be paid a commission.
Hands down, this is the best self-employment opportunity currently available as you don’t need any capital to get started and you don’t need to create your own web pages which can be time consuming. One last piece of advice I will give you is to try to find affiliate products that offer great commissions. There is no point in promoting an e-book that sells for $ 30, as after all your hard work you will receive a poultry worth roughly $ 15. Aim for high-end products that offer a commission of $ 1000 or more.
