Two years ago, when I had been working online about a year, an online colleague approached me about writing an article for a special edition of his newsletter which was to feature successful women online. Naturally, I agreed.

As I was researching forrepparttar 130945 article, I read a statistic that revealed that women over 50 were one ofrepparttar 130946 fastest growing groups of internet users. That didn't surprise me, as atrepparttar 130947 time I was approaching that "golden age" and had contact with others online who were also in that age group.

All these women were usingrepparttar 130948 vehicle ofrepparttar 130949 internet to earn an income online - andrepparttar 130950 numbers were growing every day.

So I wroterepparttar 130951 article, and it was published not only in my colleague's newsletter but many others as well.

Now, two years later, I realize thatrepparttar 130952 things I discussed in that article are as relevant today as they were two years ago whenrepparttar 130953 article was first published - and we all know that for anything to stay current online for two years it must be significant!

For that reason, I feel that they bear repeating again. After all, there are an untold number of women - in this age group as well as younger - who have enteredrepparttar 130954 world of internet business since that first article was published two years ago.

So what did I reveal in that article? Consider this...
