People see internet business through an extremely narrow lens. You’re either flogging your stuff on eBay or you’re trying to make it big and be the next Mark Zuckerberg. The reality is that there are hundreds if not thousands of different ways in which you can do business online. There are tons of different business models that cater to any goal or ambitions that you might be thinking of taking whether its selling other people’s products online as an affiliate or creating your own products and selling them yourself, or maybe you just want to use the internet as an extension of your already established offline business. The possibilities are endless!The internet is a global population full of enthusiasts of all kinds looking for solutions and products to solve their own personal problems. It’s a global market in which everyday people can take advantage of, all they need is some sort of value to give, or skills necessary to guide people to value that somebody else has created.The Benefits of an Online BusinessLow Start-up Costs:If the entrepreneur deep down has been calling out to you, you might want to consider the start-up costs on an online business. In comparison to a traditional “Bricks and Mortar” businesses the start-up costs are substantially lower for an online business. A business owner who launches their ventures online enjoy a substantially lower start-up cost than those who choose the offline approachThe “real World” business owner must pay for commercial space, physical inventory, printed stationary and allot more. As an internet business owner, your only real expenses will be your domain name and hosting account. Even if you do need to buy inventory or maybe your outsourcing technical skills to get things started your overall start-up cost will be incredibly lower than your offline starting costs.Increase In Earning Potential:If you’re employed full time or working your way up the corporate ladder, your earnings are determined by the amount of hours, and position your in. The time it takes to double your income would be obscene in the offline world, (not impossible, But defiantly harder) say you’re making $80,000 a year, how long do you think it would take to make that $80,000 to $160,000. My guess is a very long time.
Online if you learn to sell one product you can teach yourself to sell 50. If you create 1 successful business what’s to say you can make another, or maybe a few more. There’s a whole market for website flipping. People make a living off creating websites and online businesses and flip them for people who want a business that already has market traction. The truth is that the sky is the limit for your online business.Job Security:When you learn the skills required to sell products online, or create some sort of online revenue the chances are that you’ll be able to repeat this process. If you’re willing to learn the skills necessary to take your business to the next level is up to you. There’s not going to be a shortage of affiliate programs or people online to sell to.Wider network clients and buyers:If you were to start a business in your country’s capital city or the most populated city in the world, you would be pretty confident that the earning power of your business would be astronomical. There are people making a killing in your local cities with successful businesses. Now imagine how many people are online, online you have access to a huge global network of clients and buyers.Online you don’t have to compete against other agencies in your area for the same small pool of customers and clients. Instead you have access to an enormousness pool of people in which you only need the tiniest fraction to make yourself an incredibly comfortable living. You’re free to think as big as you want online. There’s no shortage of people or market space.Free Time:Wouldn’t you love to have the time to do the things you want in your weeks and days? I remember watching some of Ray Higden’s videos about his story of when he was in corporate America. He says he spent more time with picture frames of his kids then actually seeing them.Don’t you hate having to wait for traffic, taking orders from a boss, asking permission for taking holidays? Having an online business fixes all of this. You’re able to work at home when you have an online income. You can spend more time with your family, spend time traveling and best of all having the time to do the things that you want to do.Your business is open and running 24/7Instead of the 9-5 opening hours of the traditional “Brick and Motor” shop, when you set your business up online its open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. You can literally make money while you sleep! You do the work upfront and then you reap the rewards long after you’re done.You’re even able to automate most aspects if not all aspects of your business depending on your business model. There are endless amounts of products available to help automate your business. By doing this you can turn your online business into a valuable asset that will provide for you constant passive income.Freedom to Work from AnywhereYou physical presence doesn’t matter when you’re working online. As long as you have a laptop and an internet connection you’re able to work from half way around the world if you want. Where you work is totally up to you, whether it’s in your favorite coffee shop or if it’s while you’re on holidays the decision is totally yours!The Satisfaction of working for yourselfMy opinion is that creating your own business or enterprise beats working for someone else or underneath someone else. The satisfaction of creating your own income and knowing that it’s you that’s in charge of your pay check infinitely more fulfilling then being another cog in the corporate machine.The principles of Online business success is the same as any offline business. You have to have a great idea, have a good solid business plan and there should be a value proposition for potential clients. With the increase in new technologies getting your business online is become easier and cheaper.

Pfizer Rallies After Announcing A Huge Price Hike For Its COVID-19 Vaccines
S&P 500 is currently trying to settle above 3730 as traders’ appetite for risk is growing. The U.S. dollar has recently gained strong downside momentum as the BoJ intervened to stop the rally in USD/JPY. Weaker U.S. dollar is bullish for stocks as it increases profits of multinational companies and makes U.S. equities cheaper for foreign investors.
The leading oil services company Schlumberger is up by 9% after beating analyst estimates on both earnings and revenue. Schlumberger’s peers Baker Hughes and Halliburton have also enjoyed strong support today.
Vaccine makers Pfizer and Moderna gained strong upside momentum after Pfizer announced that it will raise the price of its coronavirus vaccine to $110 – $130 per shot.
Biggest losers today include Verizon and Twitter. Verizon is down by 5% despite beating analyst estimates on both earnings and revenue. Subscriber numbers missed estimates, and traders pushed the stock to multi-year lows.
Twitter stock moved towards the $50 level as the U.S. may conduct a security review of Musk’s purchase of the company.
From a big picture point of view, today’s rebound is broad, and most market segments are moving higher. Treasury yields have started to move lower after testing new highs, providing additional support to S&P 500. It looks that some traders are ready to bet that Fed will be less hawkish than previously expected.
S&P 500 Tests Resistance At 3730
S&P 500 has recently managed to get above the 20 EMA and is trying to settle above the resistance at 3730. RSI is in the moderate territory, and there is plenty of room to gain additional upside momentum in case the right catalysts emerge.
If S&P 500 manages to settle above 3730, it will head towards the next resistance level at 3760. A successful test of this level will push S&P 500 towards the next resistance at October highs at 3805. The 50 EMA is located in the nearby, so S&P 500 will likely face strong resistance above the 3800 level.
On the support side, the previous resistance at 3700 will likely serve as the first support level for S&P 500. In case S&P 500 declines below this level, it will move towards the next support level at 3675. A move below 3675 will push S&P 500 towards the support at 3640.

Upon getting information about an upcoming school science fair and the need to consider a topic of interest, many students will typically have no idea where to get started. While the science fair is typically a common occurrence in any school at any grade level, there are different types of topics that should be taken a look at depending on the age of the student. After first taking a look at the many different categories of science projects, you will be able to locate a suitable choice of topic to take to the next level.There is a wide variety of categories that fall under the types of science projects that can be chosen for a school science fair. These include biology, chemistry, physics, microbiology, biochemistry, medicine, environmental, mathematics, engineering, and earth science. While you may not have yet learned very much in any of these categories, don’t be afraid to see what each one entails. Taking a good look at your interests will allow you to focus on the right direction to take.Many resources are also available for those who are unsure as to the topic they are wanting to use to create their science projects. If you take a look at the topics that fall under the biology category, you will likely notice that there are topics that deal with plants, animals, and humans. For those who are in 2nd grade or 3rd grade, an interesting topic may be to determine if ants are picky over what type of food they eat. While this topic might not be of interest to an 8th grader, it is certainly something in the biology category that an elementary school student would enjoy.Along with the biology category, a high school student may want to take a look at diffusion and osmosis in animal cells as this would be a more appropriate topic for the grade level. A student in 6th grade would be more advanced than an elementary school student, but not as advanced as a high school student. At this middle school grade level, a topic of how pH levels effect the lifespan of a tadpole may be of interest.Whichever resource is used to locate a topic for science projects, it is always a good idea to consider the grade level of the student prior to making a selection. It is always assumed to be best to have a project at an appropriate level in order to keep the attention of the student and provide a fun and enjoyable learning experience.
