Taxes And Online Business, Selling On E Bay Do You Need To Pay Taxes?

Most people think that the Internet is really a great
venue for earning extra income or for generating extra
money through sidelines such as buying and selling,
auctioning, etc.

Most people also believe that transacting small
sidelines or business transactions through the
Internet requires no tax.

However, the truth of the matter is, there are
actually taxes that are due for every item purchased
or sold through the Internet.

Taxes and your online business (if you have one or
planning to have one) should work hand in hand for you
not to get in trouble with the government.

Is Your Online Buying And Selling A Hobby Or A
Business?

Majority of the people who are involved with E-bay
buying and selling would try to say that they don’t
really have to pay tax from what they earn through the
Internet because they are only treating it as a hobby.

However, agents from IRS would say that whether it is
treated as a hobby or a sideline business, taxes
should be strictly implemented.

While you may think that doing business on eBay is
just something you may consider as a fun pastime, the
money that you made, are making or will make is
actually still valid to reported as income.

You need to consult with the IRS people first before
you can truly say that you are exempted from paying
taxes while you are participating in your online
business.

You see, everyone seems to love making money but when
the time comes that they have to pay their due taxes
to their beloved country, they try almost every
possible way to escape paying their taxes.

If you have your so-called online business, you should
be aware of the rules of the IRS: one is required to
pay taxes on all business and personal income and that
includes the dough you make selling stuffs on the
Internet.

Simple Earnings Still Require Tax (Sniff, Sniff)

As heartbreaking as this may sound, even the simplest
business transaction made through the Internet needs
to be reported as "income".

For example, you bought an exquisite looking flower
vase at a flea market for $5 and then you decide to
sell it an eBay for $20. You manage to sell it for $20
so that means you had a $15 profit which would then
entail you to report it as income and pay your taxes
as fair share.



Realistically speaking, if you don’t treat eBay as a
serious and constant venue for your online business,
then perhaps you can get away with selling a few items
every now and then without having to worry about the
IRS tracking you down with their questions about tax
dues and other stuffs.

However, if you are a consistent chap at eBay, then
the IRS people might categorize your eBay
participation as something that is business oriented
and you may end up being required to file a Schedule C
form and claim the income that you have spurred.



If you are fond of doing business at eBay and other
similar sites, you may want to assess yourself by
asking yourself the following questions:

a.) Do I carry my "hobby" in a business-like manner?

B.) Do I spend considerable time working on my
"hobby"?

c.)Do I depend on income from my hobby for my
livelihood?

If the answer to all those questions are yes, then you
most definitely are not carrying a hobby, but in fact
a business. By finding out that you are already having
a mini-online business at eBay or other similar
websites, then you have to be responsible enough to
pay for your taxes on your income.

Remember that you have a responsibility for your taxes
and your online business.

DAN & DEANNA FINLINSON'S VIDEO ON CHOOSING A BRAND MARKETING UNSCRAMBLED

Dan & Deanna Finlinson have made a video on choosing a brand for themselves. It is Marketing Unscrambled. Deanna said that "they chose this because there is so much to learn about doing business on line, that some times it's like your brain is being scrambled. As you learn and put it into practice your marketing skills, the more your brain becomes unscrambled."

Dan said "you learn more by teaching someone else to do something. We learn more about it some times than they do. So we are teaching how to market on the Internet and we are doing the marketing ourselves. What better way is there?"

Deanna said "it is nice to be helpful to others as they learn to earn, the more that you learn - the more you can earn. That makes it a win, win situation."

HOW TO RESEARCH THE BEST KEYWORDS

People are using search engines to find the things that they want. They are telling the marketers what they are looking for by what they type in. That is why it is important to do the research to know what they are searching for.

The first place to start is to find the market that you are wanting to work with. For example if you want to do women's clothes. This is a very big topic. It is best to narrow it down so that you get the exact people looking for what you are selling. This is called a niche market. It helps to bring the right people to your site. They are the ones that will stay and shop in your web site and put their money down to buy things. If it is not what they are looking for or it is hard to find what they are looking for, they will leave. That is why it is needed to narrow it down so much.

You know you want women's clothes as your market. Now it is time to narrow it down. To find the keywords, look up in search " free keyword tools". You get sites like:

https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal
http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com
http://www.keyworddiscovery.com/

These are just a few that can be used.

Now that you are on the site that you want to use for your keyword search, in the box provided, type in " women's clothes". A list of other things people looked up, that is along the same lines as this. These are examples: " women's clothes", " plus sizes women's clothes", " discount women's clothes", " women's travel clothes". These can help you narrow it down. If all you are selling is plus sizes women's clothes, it would not be a good match for someone looking for Tall and Thin women's clothes. They would leave.

Why are keywords needed? They can help you when you are writing ads. They can help you say the same thing more than one way so it is not boring to read. They help you to narrow down the field so that you get the people that are interested in what you are selling or providing. If they want what you are selling or providing they are more likely to buy what you have.

Keywords are great when creating your web pages. The keywords help the search engines find you. If the search engines find you you get more traffic and more people buying what you have.It is a win win, you get sales, the people get what they were looking for.

By looking up the keywords you might come up with more ways of say what you want to, with many different ways of saying it. For example: " online marketing", " online marketing business", " business marketing online", " marketing online", " online marketing campaigns". Many different ways of saying the same thing.

This help you get more traffic because you are using more than one of the keywords. These people are all looking for the same things. That helps you every time.

As you do the research, it helps in these ways as you use the keyword tools that these sites provider.
Different search term that they suggest.
Seasonal search trends.
Related keyword searches.
Miss spelling of words - that way you can profit from these as well, it can get you more money.
Industry keywords - example for a Dental Lab. that makes crowns and bridges, some of the keywords would be: " model and die", "coping", "anterior and posterior", "porcelain shades",
" veneers ". Not every one would know what these mean, but to some one in the industry they are the keywords.

If you are trying to promote your web site, write ad copy, running PPC campaigns, blogging or writing content for press releases, articles and so much more you need these keywords. Do the research to identify what the keywords are. I have given you what to do with them after you have found them. Now it is time to put them to work.

I would like to know how they work for you. Leave a comment. I would be glad to hear from you. Join me again next time.

5 KEY STRATAGIES OF FREEDOM

This is good information by Terry Dean www.mymarketingcouch.com . He is a great teacher the more you can learn from him the better. This is some of the information that I have learned from him.

5 key strategies of freedom

1. Choose the right market idea
2. Prolific product development
3. High conversion websites
4. Generate targeted buying traffic
5. Create systems that do the work for you


1. Choose the right market idea

To find the market you need to find the hungry crowd first. You need to know what they are needing, so that you can answer to that need. These are some sites that help you to search them out to find what people are looking for that you can provide what they need.
http://toolsseobook.com , http://www.wordtracker.com for key words and phrases, http://www.boardreader.com for forums that you can read what the problems are.

Next in your list of things to do is find out if others are making money with these ideas. These are web sites that will help you to search out the information on how is making money and with what they are making money with ( key words and phrases.) http://paypal.com/shops , http://clickbank.com/marketplace and http://pulse.ebey.com .

2. Prolific product development

You need to compete in a competitive marketplace with the products that you develop. If the competition has DVD's, then you do ebooks. If they are doing ebooks, then you do articles to post. If they are doing articles, then you can do newsletters. In other words find something different that the competition is not doing so that you can stand out in the crowd.

Have more than one product to sell to people. It is also helpful to have multiple streams of income ( get one started first then add more.) Your first sale is to generate a customer, keep them coming back for more.

Now it is time to focus on methods to generate products quickly. (A) You can start with making short reports that can be given away as an incentive to join your newsletter or as a thank you for your order. (B) Other people have written articles and other thing that they are willing to let other people use them. They are in public domain areas. (C) Do an interview with someone that is knowledgeable in an area of interest and make it into an article that can be posted. (D) Do a webinar, charge a small amount for people to come join you as you teach the subject that you have planed.(E) Use a camcorder and make a video for example a day in the life of a real estate agent.

3. High conversion web sites

The web site is the strongest leverage available to you.

Three Quick Million Dollar Tips
A. Type out top producing letters ( from other people). This imprints it into your brain and you learn to write better every time that you do this. That way you can teach yourself to write good sales copy.
B. Find the big hook in your offer.
C. Write like you speak.

There is only one teacher that is 100% right all the time. It is not a person, it is the test market.
Google optimizer is a free multivariate testing solution.

4. Generate targeted buying traffic.

It is not visitors we're after. It is buyers

Three Methods for Delivering Buyers
A. Content such as blogging, articles and videos.
B. PPC and other paid advertising.
C. Affiliates
With affiliates, you have to: find them, equip them and motivate them.

5. Create systems that work for you.

A real business is a profitable system that works for you... instead of you working for it.

Train your team members with step-by-step systems in written procedures and videos.

Leverage them to work without you having to manage them.

Not using systems is like trying to run an internet business with an old typewriter. That does not work.

ALTERNATIVE WAYS TO DO ADS WITH SOLO ADS, EZINES AND NEWSLETERS

These are three ways to do paid ads that are a little different that can help you to increase to your list and your pocket book.

1. Solo ads - the best way to do this is to search solo ads. Do not just go with the first ad that you see check them out. Do not stop at page 1, you might do better by going to other pages 2,3,4,5,6 and so on these might be really good companies. They might have less people using the list that you are sending to and so better results. Test them out, start small and work you way up to the big numbers as they prove that they can deliver what they say. This is using other people's list to build your list.

2. Ezines and ezine directories do your home work first. Read them carefully. When they say $20.00, it might be $20.00 a month. Do not get stuck. As with above, start small and work your way up. Great way to get ads and people to your web site.

3. Newsletters are also a way to do ads. Since newsletters are going out to niche groups, your can pick the one that fits best with what you are doing. Check to see how often it goes out. Is it weekly, by weekly, monthly. Choose the one that fits your needs best.

The better your ads are the better that you will do. Write them yourself or hire someone else to write them for you. One of the best ways to learn to write good ads is, look at other ads. If it is something that you would click on them others would also. Learn what they are doing right. Follow that for yourself. Do not forget the headlines, they are what catch the eye. If they jump out at you they will jump of for someone else. Enjoy, do your homework first, test by starting small and add to that.

ONLINE MARKETING 4 WAYS TO BUILD INTEREST IN YOU WEB SITE

Why people fail with online marketing. People are befuddled with the lack of response that they are getting from the marketing campaigns they are doing. They say " I have tried everything". What they really mean is that they have tried the one or two things that they know how to do. These are not working. No traffic and no sales.

Here are four ways that can help. They are free of cost, but they will take you some time and effort. They can be linked to each other and to your capture pages.

1. Start a blog. Choose something that you are interested in. It does not have to be long. Start with two or three paragraphs. It is ok if it is a bit longer. If it is to long make it into two posts. Post something every day. It keeps people coming back for more. ( You will need about ten posts for searches to even find you so keep going. ) If you are writing them you can copyright them. Sign your name, put in your email, add a link to your capture page.
2. Go to a site like: www.dig.com , www.zimbio.com or look in search under blog directories for more. These two are free to join. They can help you get placed higher in the search engines and get more traffic to your blog.
3. Write articles. (You can use some of your longer blogs and make them into articles.) Post them to places like: www.ezinearticles.com or www.zimbio.com or google article posting to fined more places to post them. ( Look for the free sites.) Remember they do not like a lot of links in the articles that you post with them.
4. These are a few other places that are free to post things, including ads: www.facebook.com , www.myspace.com , www.youtube.com ( great place for video ads for your site), www.adlandpro.com , www.backpage.cm , www.craigslist.org, these are free and can give your site more exposure, more traffic and sales.

BLOGGING CAN HELP BUILD YOUR LIST

Are you doing a blog? Find others that are blogging about similar subjects. This is a good place to look http://www.blogs.com . It will give you the top ten in the area that you are looking in. Go look at the other blogs. If they have things that interest you and you like it. Let them know that you like it, post a comment on their blog. ( Don't push what you have, but just talk about the blog that you are on.) You might get a comment back from them. You could become friends because you have a lot in common.

After you get to know each other, you might get the other person saying on there blog " go look at Jane Doe's blog." she has good things to say and I have learned from her. You could do the same for them. You both benefit from the exchange. Friendship for one thing. Sharing people on your lists. If you are blogging every day, it gets hard sometimes to come up with things to write about. If your friend has something good on that day, you could make a reference to your friends blog. Put a hyper link to there blog.

GOOD WEB DESIGN, IT IS WHAT THE VISITOR SEES THAT THEY BUY.

The subconscious control of visitors action with good web design. Web design makes a big difference on what our visitors do. How they see the pages. They buy by what they see.

Bright colors in the right places make that spot impossible to ignore. For example an orange buy button or a word in the headline in red.

How things are laid out on the page is important. Images consistently sized help to make it nice to look at. Using the same font styles and colors that are repeated make for a pleasing page.

The good use of consistency,Repetition, alignment, and proximity is visually pleasing. This is the smart use of visual and information design.

HOW TO USE FOLLOW - UP EMAILS

Now that you have someone on your web site, they have signed up for your newsletter or they have bought your product. Now what? Do they sit and wonder "did it go though." If you have an auto responder, then a message that is already written will be sent out to them. It might say something as simple as " Thank you for subscribing" or "Thank you for your order".

If they sent an email, you can have a response saying "We will get back to you within 24 hours". That gives you some time to look at your emails and get back to them with the answer

They want the personal touch. If they can not get in touch with someone when they have problems, they get upset. That means bad word of mouth advertising and that spreads very fast. Sometimes faster then good word of mouth advertising.

Using follow - up email is just good business.

WRITING AD BODIES TO GET MORE VISITORS

The ad body does not need to be long. Some of the better ads are the short , sweet and to the point. The purpose of the ad body is to get people to click into your web site as soon as possible.

This is the ads only purpose, to get people to click to your web site. It is not to sell, but to get the persons curiosity up to take a look at your web site. The web site is what will do the selling, if the web site is done right.

If no one ever gets to your web site, no one will buy what you are offering.

Here are some examples of ad bodies:

When you write an informative article either explaining, reviewing or investigating a particular product or service, then submit that article to hundreds of article directories, it's going to do 3 things for your website, drive targeted traffic, increase PR rankings in Google and will establish you as an authority within your niche market.Before you go out and submit a article to just any old directory, it's important to understand which article directories Google seems to favor. Over the past 3 years I have been able to pick up on a few reputable article directories that seem to give more exposure. The following article directories are favored by the Google search engine, ezinearticles, squidoo, buzzle articles, and searchwarp. It has come to my attention that my articles are ranked higher in Google and have received more exposure with the article directories listed above. Submitting to these directories with higher PR rankings gives your article more credibility, hence more exposure.After you have a well written article, typically you are allowed to place a link back to your site in the resource box. If you want to SEO your article for a particular keyword and have it rank higher in Google, instead of using a generic link, use a hyper link with the keyword you are trying to target. For example, if your business focuses on selling marketing strategies, then you would hyper link your site in the resource box using that keyword, "marketing strategies." Google recognizes this as anchor text and tends to rank your website higher for that particular keyword.Lastly, writing an article every few days or every few weeks begins to build your credibility with potential buyers within your niche market. Checking your article for relevant content related to your business, submitting them to the right article directories and giving away value within your article could potentially generate large influxes of web traffic. In the end, you have created a relationship with the reader and possibly someone that's willing to do business with you.

How To Build A Six Figure Income Online
By Tim Rohrer

Everyone is looking for the secret wealth formula and a get rich fast scheme online these days. The truth is, building your online business and earning six figures a year from home can be accomplished, but not overnight. Let me remind you, I said "can" be accomplished. Before we go any further in our discussion, let's take the preconceived notion that every business is a scam out of your head and clarify a few things. 95% of businesses fail online due to two simple factors. Number one, the level of your advertising and internet marketing experience and number two, finding a business that offers real value to the end user. If you are able to master these two factors, you will find that anything is possible online.Becoming a marketing master – There are so many different techniques used today in internet marketing, it's easy to become caught in the next best thing that you lose focus. Right now there are two techniques that are proven to work and one of them is cutting edge that every internet marketer should be doing. The first technique is called, "article marketing" In article marketing, the internet marketer writes informative articles discussing or reviewing a particular product or service. Taking this article, then submitting it to article directories provides content for hungry web masters. In return, when a web master posts an article on their website, it provides a link back to your service or product. Writing an effect article can lead to highly targeted web traffic and potentially a substantial influx of sales.Your next question may be, "how do I know what to write about?" There are already plenty of pre-written articles on your subject matter. A simple search at www.ezinearticles.com will bring up articles related to your keyword search. Using a number of pre-written articles to re-write your own article is a good start. Craig Garcia, the co-founder of EDC Gold, says “As a member of EDC Gold, we have several pre-written articles in a number of niche markets available for use.” “All you have to do is copy and paste them into the 110 article submission hubs in our member’s area”In addition to article marketing, video marketing is a new and upcoming technique. Google recently bought out youtube, a place where individuals can go and record videos of themselves promoting their business. Recording a simple video introducing who you are and the service or products you have available builds credibility and marks you as an authority in your niche market. Secondly, the Google search engine loves youtube. Posting a video on youtube in the proper categories using the proper keywords in your heading can earn you top positions in the Google search engine.Both techniques are proven to work and have been working for many internet marketers. Obviously the more you do for each technique stated above will drive more traffic to your business and ultimately put you in a profit building position.

How to Determine if it is a Legitimate Business or Ponzi Scheme?

Ponzi schemes are a type of illegal pyramid scheme named for Charles Ponzi, an Italian immigrant who used technique in New England in the 1920's. Although it was he who is most well known for using this scheme, the concept has been around for a long time.

These types of schemes are quite common and you have probably seen those hundreds of times, perhaps without realizing it. They are often in the form of messages that claim that for a relatively small investment, you can make huge amounts of money. There are many variations, but they all are based on the same concept: the promotion of what starts out to be, or appears to be, a real investment opportunity. Many times it involves the development of a valuable resource such as oil, gas, minerals or real estate. In a lot of cases, the resource does actually exist; however, the promoter has significantly overestimated its how much it is worth. In other cases the resource does not even exist. Either way, the promoter convinces investors that the asset can be further developed if they invest into it. In return, the promoter will share the profits with the investors.The concept works in the beginning and the initial investors do make the huge returns that they were promised. Because of this they are likely to invest more money and recruit new investors. The money being paid out, however, is not coming from the asset, but in the influx of new investors. For this reason, the only way that the investors will continue to get paid is through the continuous reinvestments or investments from new investors. As soon as investing slows down, people stop getting paid and the scheme begins to collapse. When the scheme collapses, most investors lose their money and have no way to recoup their losses. Although Ponzi schemes can last for a fairly long time before collapsing, legal authorities often break them up before they even get the chance because a Ponzi scheme is suspected and/or because the promoter is selling unregistered securities.The best way to avoid becoming involved in this type of scheme is to thoroughly research any investment before investing into it. If you see: a reliance on funds from new investors to pay commissions, a need for an inexhaustible supply of new investors, and/or absences of a profitable product or efforts to make profits through productive work; there is a good chance that it is indeed a Ponzi scheme.

One of the best companies on the internet is a company that teaches people how to market on the internet. If you do now know how to market, then now matter what products or services you provide, no one will ever know you are there. So to start with the basics, you need to learn to know how to market on the internet.
