Everybody loves to find free clip art on Web. Some people are clip art addicts. They must have every bit of clip art they can find, purchase, or swipe. Other people will search for days for specific piece of clip art they need. There used to be a lot of good free clip art on Web. Now most clip art sites require you to pay.

Free clip art sites have most valuable asset on Web. No - not clip art itself, but tremendous amount of traffic these sites attract. Traffic is often referred to as "eyeballs" by Web marketers. First you have to figure out what kinds of products and services those eyeballs might be interested in. Then you have to join affiliate programs that will pay you a commission when someone purchases from an ad on your Web site.

What kinds of products and services are clip art seekers interested in?

Obviously they are seeking clip art to use on their Web page or print publication, so they are definitely interested in graphic design and Web publishing software. Here are some other things they might be interested in:

- Image and clip art libraries - Computer and printer products - Web services such as Web hosting - Anything that general audiences are interested in

=> You can also sell all clip art from your own Web site on a CD. Owning CD makes it much faster and easier for your customer to use clip art.

Where do you get clip art for your free clip art site?

You can't sell or give away copyright protected clip art, but you can find millions of public domain clip art images on Web. You could also find an artist who is willing to sell you, for a low per-image price, non-exclusive rights to a collection of images. Offer to do scanning and Web preparation yourself. A good cartoonist can bang out a clip art type drawings in less than one minute apiece.

One of things most critical to home business success is defining one's goals. We are continually reminded to write them on paper, giving ourselves a deadline to meet them, so that we can remain focused on our ultimate dreams.

We need to keep them in front of us at all times in order to maintain motivation often needed to get us over rough spots in our businesses.

Wallace Wattles, in his 1910 classic, "The Science of Getting Rich," states:

"You must form a clear and definite mental picture of what you want. You cannot transmit an idea unless you have it yourself....That clear mental picture you must have continually in mind....The more clear and definite you make your picture then, and more you dwell upon it, bringing out all its delightful details, stronger your desire will be."

Does this mean that you must spend hours contemplating your ultimate goal? Of course not. It simply means that you need to know just exactly what it is that you want and want it so badly that it will stay in your thoughts.

I've personally taken this advice very much to heart. Regardless of what your goals are, it's possible for you to use this same method to maintain your own focus.

Let me explain.

My ultimate goal is for my husband and I to be able to retire to area in which I grew up, Mississippi Gulf Coast. I have a very definite image of what life will be like for us there, and each day I set aside a few minutes to simply close my eyes and dwell on mental picture of some of things we'll be able to enjoy -
