The “People Search” business is huge these days.

In fact, 1/3 of all searches done online are people search related. Whether it be somebody looking for a lost relative, a friend, or a loved one, or somebody interested in doing a background check for a potential employee, tenant, or nanny, people are interested in other people.

And it’s because of that niche that Tissa Godavitarne created the ACME People Search platform.And after years of using the platform successfully on his own, he finally decided to start offering it to others to use as well back in 2008 so that they could make money from home.

So the question often comes up. Can you really make money at home from the ACME People Search Engine?

And the answer is that of course you can! I’ve earned over twenty thousand dollars in commissions over the last 18 months.

But here’s another important point. Although a lot of the money I’ve earned over that time period has been generated using pay-per-click, I’ve recently ventured into Search Engine Optimization (SEO) strategies that started generating profits for me without investing any advertising dollars whatsoever. So, in other words, I’m making 100% profit!

How would you like to be able to start a business where you could generate a profit and not have to spend a dime in advertising costs?

It can be done.

I wrote about my recent experiences with this SEO technique on the ACME Support Forum recently. You can read about it here.

So if you are interested in trying to start a business where you can make money from home and be your own boss then check into ACME People Search.

In the 1967 television western “The Guns of Will Sonnett”, Walter Brennan played an old army scout, who along with his grandson, scoured the countryside searching for his son who was a gunfighter on the run. Whenever someone would talk about Will’s reputation as being the fastest gun in the west, Will would utter the iconic phrase “No brag, just fact”. And he would inevitably have to back up his words with a demonstration somewhere in the show.

Unfortunately, I wish more aspiring entrepreneurs would require this of the online marketers who are trying to sell them on their latest and greatest business.

A case in point is all of these different programs I see promoted on the internet that promise to help someone build their Global Domains International (GDI) business. They all are basically the same, promising to help people build their GDI downlines and earn them bonuses and residual income for life. They sound great if they could deliver what they promise.

The problem is that GDI has this little thing called the GDI Leaderboard that displays all the people who are getting GDI signups each week and earning those bonuses and residual income. I call it a problem because it’s rare to see these people who are promoting their GDI businesses on the Leaderboard. One would think if their program is so good at getting GDI signups that their names would be on there and that’s one of the first things someone should look for if thinking about joining one of these programs.

That’s why ACME People Search is not afraid to honestly tell people they should look at our business if they are really interested to make money online and build their GDI business. We are very transparent and want people to see how many of our affiliates are on the GDI Leaderboard each and every week. Our business platform works! “No brag, just fact”.

We even post real-time stats so you can check the GDI Leaderboard and see for yourself which business really works to get GDI signups.

ACME People Search also helps earn income from multiple other income streams as well. So if you want to start to make money online, why not join the business that not only builds your GDI income, but also allows you to earn in other ways as well?

This past Friday we received about 4 inches of snow in the Atlanta area where I live. Which means that everything comes to a grinding halt for the most part. For people up North who are used to this kind of thing it probably seems pretty laughable. But it’s the truth.

Schools tend to shut down before even the first flake is seen, which happened Thursday night when the National Weather Service predicted snow for the area the next day. The school officials probably felt pretty silly when it didn’t even start to snow until Friday afternoon.

Then there is the mad house by people to the grocery stores to load up on milk and bread. I have never quite figured that one out. We eat some interesting things here in the South but even I have never heard of “milk and bread sandwiches”.

And then there are those people who just have to get in their vehicles and decide that, despite the warnings from law enforcement personnel that road conditions are hazardous, just have to get wherever it is they are going. But usually all they usually go is on the nightly news broadcast where their unfortunate accident is shown for all to see. As is what happened to hundreds of people who decided that that kind of stuff never happens to them.

Which brings me to the point of this story.

Am I ever thankful that I work from home!

We often mention the many benefits of working from home such as the freedom to name our own hours, make our own decisions, spend more time with the family, and determine our own income.

But often times there are unexpected advantages as well. And one of those is that we don’t have to worry what the driving conditions are like when it snows outside. In most cases the weather conditions outside don’t really impact what we do.

So now it is Monday morning. It is 2 AM and for some reason I awoke out of a sound sleep and am downstairs in my office writing this. Once again the National Weather Service is predicting another 1 to 2 inches of snow here in Atlanta this morning.

At this time of morning I wonder if there would be much traffic if I rush to the grocery store. For some reason I have a craving for a milk and bread sandwich.

In the 1982 comedy “Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid“, Steve Martin utters these words to Rachel Ward, in a hilarious scene where the coffee he is pouring never seems to end. I laugh every time I see it.

But what does this movie scene have to do with how to make money online, the subject about which this blogger writes?

Well, it got me to thinking about how much it cost to start up a business these days. In a recent article on the “Entrepreneur” website, they wrote about 55 different businesses one could start up for under $5,000. The suggestions range all the way from a professional job as an accountant, to becoming a pet sitter. One of the other jobs listed was as a consultant.

Since being a consultant is what I do for a living, as well as being an internet marketer and trainer, I think I am pretty qualified to comment on this subject. I suppose it depends on what kind of  consultant work one does to determine for sure the startup costs. But trust me. It cost me a lot more than $5,000 to start up a legitimate consultant business.

But the point I want to drive home here is that there are a lot of very affordable internet businesses that one can start. And guess what? They can cost less that a cup of coffee per day.

To make money online with ACME People Search cost about $1.33 a day, and according to this article on Examiner.com, that’s less than what a cup of java costs these days.

Compared to a brick and mortar business like a restaurant, or even starting up a business like an accountant or pet sitter, that is a real bargain!

So check out ACME People Search and GDI. Working from the comfort of your own home sure beats working for someone else. And, you can get a cup of famous java any time you choose to do so.
