Identify a need: Do some research about the demographics that are easily accessible to you, find out what it is they need the most. Serving a need will insure your cashflow because as long as that need exists, someone will pay you to solve it. So find a need that you believe you can solve.

Unique Idea/Product/Service: Having identified a need, look into your creative genius for a breathtaking idea. you may ask if the need exists why develop a unique idea, here is why, for every need, there is someone thinking of how to solve that need, implying that there will be more players in the field thus splitting the market. That is where your unique approach comes in, think to yourself, how do I develop a system that is attractive, easy to use and practically affordable.

Implement: A unique idea is nothing if not implemented, execute your idea, this could mean, designing and hosting a website, registering a domain, creating a blog whatever that site will need.
If it is ecommerce( buying and selling things on the internet just like ebay, DHGate and the whole load of them. collect your products, and put them out there for the users to find.

PS. Content is everything, the more unique and useful your content is the more the chances that you will make it, providing content about the greatest needs of people like, Money, Housing, Relationships, Sex, Cars, Sports.

Content that provides answers to peoples most basic need for information increases the chances for people to come back to your site, case in point http://www.askmen.com/, http://www.answers.com/, http://www.wikipaedia.com/ etc.
Note: To succeed on the internet, Content is everything

 Social Networking: The idea of social networks it to create virtual relationships that bare the qualities of physical relationships, things like, sharing, liking, connecting, these are words that we use in everyday relationships with one another, now imagine having 2000 people within your network where you share the same friendship qualities. The same way you would introduce say a perfume to your friend, Jessie, is the same way you can reach all the rest at the click of a mouse. It is a lot cheaper and effective when used well.

The common social networking sites that you could benefit from include: Facebook, Youtube, LinkedIN, slideshare, Twitter, Blogger, Wordpress among the others. The idea of businesses being on these social networking sites is to create more visibility for your product, service or brand.


Update Content: Content is what keeps people using your site, it has got to be aesthetically attractive but more than that it must be upto date, the amount of information produced daily is astounding, information in the world multiplies 20 times over every 2 years, indicating people don't need old information unless that is what they are looking for.

So all my friends out there who are wondering how to benefit from the internet knock yourselves out.

Rich Friends Matter.

How to Get Rich Friends

By Lane Cummings,

Having rich friends can open you up to a world of benefits.

True friends, be they rich or poor, make your life better. They are there for you, they laugh with you and they support you through the adventures of life. However, having rich friends poses certain advantages. Rich friends can help you enter powerful social circles where you might meet celebrities and politicians. Rich friends can give you solid financial advice, lend you access to their expensive toys such as boats and chalets overseas and potentially back your investments, not to mention expose you to a more glamorous world.

Instructions

• 1

Move to a neighborhood that is affluent, if you can possibly afford it. This is a wise move even if you have to live in a tiny shoebox, as it will put you in the constant company of rich people. You'll constantly be meeting people when walking your dog, jogging or grocery shopping and it will give you a natural place from which to start friendships. Rich people in your neighborhood will naturally consider you one of them.

• 2

Join a country club or private club if you can afford a membership. If you can't, consider taking a part-time job there. Even though you'll be collecting a paycheck, it will still give you the opportunity to hobnob with wealthy people. For example, if you're tending bar in a swanky club, constantly chatting with millionaires, you have strong odds of actually befriending some. Don't work a job where you'll have to wear a uniform as it creates an unspoken barrier between classes, says Ginie Polo Sayles, author of "How to Marry the Rich."

• 3

Volunteer at a charity event. While tickets to charity events are expensive, you won't have to pay a dime if you volunteer. Millionaires and other high-income wage earners frequent such places and it will be easier to meet them there.

• 4

Get an M.B.A. An M.B.A. degree qualifies you for jobs in finance, investments, and media and entertainment -- jobs where you'll potentially make a lot of money and meet people who are doing the same.

• 5

Employ the proper etiquette. Rich people are often wary of gold-diggers, so it's important to make it seem like money is not important to you. Don't talk about how much things cost. You can accept gifts from rich friends, but never accept money, as that could lead to a lack of respect,
