Exchange links with possible partners. This is hard to do just one day a week. You will find yourself spending a few minutes here and there when you have time. Because exchanging links is so tedious that is actually a better way to do it then to sit down and spend several hours at a time.

Here are 3 excellent link directories to get quality link partners.

Thursday

Post in at least 5 forums. To start with forums are a great place to ask questions and learn how to make money at home for free. The nice thing is that you can add a free short classified ad about your product along with link to your website at end of your post. This is a great non-threatening way to increase your traffic as well as one way links back to your website.

Forums are also a great place to get ideas for your weekly article. Look at type of questions people are asking. Do some research and formulate an article around answer to these commonly asked questions.

You can find hundreds of forums here: http://forumcity.org/links/dir

Here are some more great forums to join and post in.

Add fresh content to your site. Maybe a new article or another sales or training page. Over a period of time you will have a website with hundreds of pages and you will see it on page one of search engines for your most popular keywords and keyword phrases.

RSS feeds are all of rage right now. I have found a simple way to add fresh content by adding a few lines of javascript to a page. Here are a couple of places to get fresh content scripts.

Saturday

Catch up day. Return emails, research a new product or program to sell. Plan your next week.

Sunday

Take day off.

This article should get rid of any notion you may have that you will get something for nothing when it comes to making money online. It is hard work. It takes patience. You have to have a long range view of what your goals are. Making money from comfort of your own home is not going to happen overnight.

But good news is if you will do things above over time you will see your income growing and eventually you will be making more money at home than you do at your full time job.

If you were sitting across from me right now, I could look you in eye and tell you that this is a genuine and realistic goal. But when you say to me you want to quit your job in six or nine months and live off income from your new business, I’ll tell you that probably is not reality.

Not what you wanted to hear, right? But is what I’m suggesting so tough to swallow? Of course not. Can you think of any other endeavor where you could invest just five to 10 hours a week for a couple years and at end of that time have turned it into a $3,000 to $10,000 residual monthly income stream?

Money that keeps coming in month after month, year after year. Money that keeps coming in whether you work 10 hours a day or two.

A commission check waiting for you in your mailbox when you return from yet another vacation. Money that when you’ve left this planet continues to provide for your spouse, children, or grandchildren.

Sounds extremely nice, doesn’t it? But again, these are not things you’re going to see in your first year. It just ain’t gonna happen, folks!

Some of you, go-getters, you WILL see it happen in your second year. For most of you, however, you need to be thinking two to five years. And you know what? When you get there, I guarantee you, you’ll say it was nothing!

We reap what we sow, but harvest is never in same season as planting! Today you are planting...and will be at least for next several months. Your harvest will come in time. Be persistent.

Be patient. Think long term. Take action every day, (no matter how small) to build your business and you cannot fail. Great success will be yours if you follow this simple formula.
