There are very few of us who have not fallen for at least one earn quick money trap while looking for a few ways to make a little extra money at home in your spare time! There are a few simple things that you can look out for that will keep you from falling for or getting sucked in any number of the scams that are running all over the place. Watch out for upfront fees It does not matter whether you are looking at earn quick money ads advertising for Secret Shoppers or envelope stuffers; there is one major clue that this might be a scam. If the information that you are reading asks you to send money to the company or individual for either a report or listing of the what Secret Shopper positions are available in your area or which companies are looking for Secret Shoppers; this is a dead giveaway that this is a scam designed only to get money from you. The same is true when it comes of those envelope stuffing positions. Foreclosure Lists This is another way that people have gotten scammed. They think that they can earn quick money by buying, fixing up and re-selling foreclosed properties. Sometimes you can earn some quick cash that way if you know what you are doing as well as all of the ins and outs of the real estate industry. Generally you will have to put some of your own money into fixing up distressed or run down properties in order to make them livable once again. The key here is that you can usually get this information from any local real estate agency as well as the Department of Housing and Urban Development (or its equivalent) in your area without having to pay a fee of any kind. Most people in the construction and/or real estate business know where the distressed and foreclosed properties are in the area; just ask them. Watch Out for the Different Earn Quick Money Methods This is something else that you really need to watch out for. There are many legitimate ways that you can earn a little extra money from home but there are just as many scams out there as well. There has been an explosion of websites and ads advertising this report or this report that is designed to help you make money or help you avoid being caught up in someone else's get rich quick scheme. Read everything carefully. If you are being asked to send money to someone (individual or company) you really need to check that person or company out very thoroughly before you even think about sending them any money. There are several good and legitimate reports and information sources out there if you take the time to look them up. Considering the amount of information that is available on the internet; that can be rather intimidating. What Governs the Internet? The Internet is very difficult to govern and there are different ways to do this but success is not easily measured. Self Regulation. The user should be responsible for the way he uses the Internet. Prohibition of viewing lewd material or harmful propaganda should be regulated by the discretion of the individual who sits in front of the computer. If the said individual is also a website owner, especially if the website is an adult or gambling site, he or she should be responsible enough to add a disclaimer or a warning about the risk factor of adult viewing or gambling. Unfortunately, this type of regulation is not really observed by almost every user of the Internet. Minors can easily access the prohibited websites and watch pornography or gamble by simply clicking the mouse. Parental Control. The parents should be active on the regulation of their children's access on the Internet. The parents have the right to directly control the extent of use of Internet inside the home. Minors should always be closely monitored. To ensure that these young people will not go astray on the big, bad world of the Internet, the parents can install a program that automatically blocks the entry of undesirable websites. What if the parents are irresponsible and indifferent? Or just simply ignorant and do not know how to use the computer or the Internet? More often than not, children learn to use the Internet outside the home. Nowadays, the favorite places to hang-out for youngsters are the computer shops where the games played are for more violent and more graphic not suitable for children. Alas, computer shop owners do not care about censorship as long as the computers for rent earn money. Parents should really play a bigger role in their children's lives. Be vigilant and always alert to detect any problem arising from use or over-use of the Internet. Internet Service Providers (or ISPs). There is an ongoing debate on what role the Internet Service Providers, also called ISPs, should really play on the proper governance of the Internet. Suggestions and ideas about setting up surveillance equipment for monitoring use had come out many times. But these ISPs refuse to agree on any of these suggestions due to technical issues. In addition, they do not believe that they should be governing and monitoring the services they offer for Internet users. Government Regulation. Enforcing the law over the wide virtual world of the Internet is near to impossible feat for the government. Some methods of entrapment succeed, which resulted to the capture of several child molester and pedophiles. But how many abusers are out there just waiting for a chance to attack innocent victims? Some people disagree that the government should be given reign on the governance and regulation of the Internet because some fear that a dictatorial form of government might impose suppression over anything unbeneficial. Conclusion. The world of the Internet is virtual and almost intangible. Looking for the perfect body to govern and to regulate might be impossible to achieve so the responsibility should be accepted by every one, adults and minors alike. The adult individuals, especially those who are parents themselves, should be concerned and involved on making sure that the Internet is properly used and not abused by anyone. Forbidden sites should always be invisible and inaccessible to under-aged browsers. This is the ideal set-up but almost impossible to accomplish, unless all of us will take the right course of action.

With the current events in the financial markets currently more people are looking for any way to create additional income thereby increasing security for their respective families. Many people have their retirement accounts, jobs, bank accounts and credit lines at stake. There is a great deal of anxiety today overall. The good news is that the Internet allows anyone with a computer and access to the Internet a source of additional income. The beauty of the Internet is that you are able to reach millions of people with the click of a button. What types of programs are available to you that can create money from home in your spare time? When you do your research I think you will find companies such as Data Entry, Rebate Processors, Type At Home, Online Surveys, Medical Transcriptions, E-mail Processors and much more. The choices are there for you so what should you do next? You need to exercise extreme caution to avoid being scammed. There are many bad companies that will relieve you of some of your hard earned cash and waste your time. If you put in the effort you should get paid for your time. Make sure that you research programs before jumping into the fire. I recommend using a website like mine, but not necessarily mine, that has done some level of research for you or do the work yourself. Compare the requirements of any company you choose with your available time, skill sets, comfort zone and income objectives. If you do your research, filtering out any program that does not match your work at home profile listed above; I believe you will have a head start on being successful. Remember you must do some work from home to get paid. Nothing in life is free. If you see any programs suggesting they will pay you huge sums of money for doing nothing you should avoid them like the plague. This should be a red flag to us all. Doing the up front research and making the right decisions will play a major part as to whether you are successful or not. Do not take short cuts in these areas, because it can be very costly. Many people make this mistake, most end up failing, wasting their time and money. It will take some patience as it takes a little time to build your work at home income up to the levels you require. In the end, if successful I believe, you will be very happy with the results. I know I have been. Keep your goals in front of you. You should be able to have some comfort in knowing that you are taking action for you and your family. Anyone doing that can feel proud of his or her actions.

Many of you probably use a search engine such as Google every single day, but do you know how one actual works? Do you know why all those results appear or what sponsored ads are? You would be surprised how many people don't know the process or the inner workings of search engines! Some parts are pretty confusing and others not so much, maybe that's because I have owned a search engine so I had to learn how it worked! Of course there are the big boy SEs like Google, Yahoo and MSN but there are also search engines that are medium and smaller ones referred to as PPC engines. For medium ones I would probably name off ones like Dog Pile or Alta Vista, for small PPC ones I would say Smart-Phart or Gold Searching. If you delve down a little deeper there are also search engines referred to as Meta Crawlers, these search engines allow you to use one engine to search on multiple sites. Mamma is a good example. Every time you type in a query at a meta-search engine, they search a series of other search sites at the same time, compile their results, and display them either by search engine employed or by integrating them in a uniform manner, eliminating duplicates, and resorting them according to relevance. It's like using multiple search engines, all at the same time but much quicker! In general I think we already know how search engines work, you look for something, put in the keyword phrase, and the results show up. But where do all those results come from? Crawler-based search engines, such as Google, create their listings automatically. They "crawl" or "spider" the web, then people search through what they have found. You literally can search for anything and it will be found. You can ask the engine questions, you can put in products/brands, you can say keywords, you can enter in store names, people's names, anything and you will find a result. The sponsored results you see for example, on the top and side of Google are bought ads. People can go to sites like AdWords and buy space on space to place their ads, these ads are almost always relevant to what the results are that you are searching for but once in a blue moon I'll be searching for tennis and a golf ball sponsor ad will show up. It happens, not a huge deal! Usually the people that buy the ads on the side and the sponsor ads will place a certain amount of money in their account on AdWords, and then they can say okay I want my ad to be .10 cents, if you have $100 in the account that's about 1000 clicks. Usually when you allocate an ad and give it a high worth, its placed more on the engine. In other words you could search flowers once, and then search flowers again and the same ads probably won't show up, if they do, then that person probably paid a good amount of money for it to do that. There really is no default engine for everyone to use, people just find a search engine they like and they go with it, usually sticking with it and never changing. So, that's why new engines need a nice little "hook" to reel you in. If you are super dedicated to using Google, you won't move on and use another site unless it has something really special about it right? Well this is one of the reasons there are so many engines, each one is trying to out do the next, and each one is trying to get more visitors than the other. I have a few faves I use besides Google, one of which is a site called Find. Find is a terrific engine where you cannot only just search but you can also find out information about certain subject. For example, if we go to Food, we will see a few extra subcategories to choose from such as Gourmet, Food Network, Easy Recipes, Cooking Light or Halloween Recipes. Now if you click easy recipes you will be given a little summary of what easy recipes are, how they are used, why should you use easy recipe. But as said above you can also use this as a search engine, by placing whatever you are looking for in the search box and pressing "find". Pretty cool! Check it out!
