I am older woman who wants to try an online business. How do you find one that is not a scam

I am retired and would like to make some extra income. They can tell you anything online. How do you know the honest ones.

First, before you go into business for yourself, based on your question and detailed message, I really think you need to read this article on home based businesses for online (and off line). Because one thing you need to do before venturing into a business is NOT to have the mind frame of "I'll try it". Going into business like that, you WILL fail. Because your mind and heart are not where they should be. Businesses take time to build. Sometimes a business (depending on what it is) may not make any money for a couple of months. It takes anywhere from 2 to 5 years to build a solid money flowing business that increases in profit each year. That's just how businesses are. You can make way more money then a job, but you have to build it and do it and put your mind into it and not just "try" it.
The article also explains what to look for in honest businesses to collaborate with (this is what your refering to doing when you asked how do you know the honest ones) So anyhow, I know plenty of people who have very successful on line businesses. That's because they took the time to build it and stopped at nothing. That's what you have to do. Go into it full bore, no stop and go's. But anyhow, read this article. It will help you a lot and give you quite a few ideas.

Hi,
