My alternate income retirement planThe prospect of aging muscles and financial unrest sparked my search for an alternate income source. Here's a little of my story. I have been in the computer industry for some 34 years and started my own consulting business in 1990. As with any small business, it had its ups and downs, but key in this industry is that technology changes quickly. This rapid change becomes more and more unnerving as one grows older, as it gets tougher and tougher to keep up with it.
Consequently, I checked out various work-from-home and web-hosting services and started making comparisons. All of my research, reading and recommendations led me to one inescapable conclusion.
Site Sell and their Site Build It product.
I am skeptical though, as you probably are, and I studied the president's claims with a critical eye. Happily, after a little more that a year, my site has an Alexa Ranking to be proud of, thousands of references on web-sites around the world, links on hundreds more, and a strong Google Page Rank. What this means is that my site is visited by over 500 new people everyday, looking at thousands of pages. I receive stories from kids all over the globe, and parents and children come back regularly to read comments and offer critiques. And by generating real visitor traffic I can use e-Commerce tools to sell products or services and use other marketing techniques to provide additional, alternate income. I am Canadian. I am suspicious of anything that even remotely sounds too good to be true. And my friends and family are the last ones to say "that sounds great, go for it". Ring a bell? This could very well be similar for you, but I promise, if you follow the guidelines, if you have something to sell or simply have a wealth of expertise to provide, this can become your future.
