Online Business Income Opportunity

I have been looking online for the longest trying to find the proper at home business to start…or at least generate a decent amount of income from the internet. The paid surveys suck…but it seems to be money to be made when it comes to these banner exchange and link exchange programs. Does anyone have any information for me? Should I pay to build a website that is strictly for listing different banner exchanges and link exchanges? It seems profitable. Or does anyone have any suggestions for a work from home opportunity that is not a scam? Thank you.

in order for bannners to work for you ,you need a certain amout of hits on your site
if you get less then 50 hits a month on your site banners are not going to help
if thats the case you would be better off making flyers about your site
in some cases you still have to do the old fashion leg work
or perhaps put an add in the paper about your site
its difficult when first starting
I have never had any luck doing anything online
its much better to connect with people,either through groups or friends
or conecting with a job fair or something like that
this is my temporary web site
