With so many so-called business opportunities on the Internet today, it’s getting more and more difficult to weed out the real money spinners from the host of scams. Just go to any search engine and type in ‘work at home’, and you’ll see exactly what I mean.
For Internet newbies, this represents a virtual minefield, and sadly many will fall foul of an unscrupulous, faceless assassin before they even realize they’ve been financially wounded. It’s all very well for those fully conversant with all things web and techie, to say experiencing the perils of the Internet is a simple learning process. Well, whatever happened to gallantry and chivalry?
Just because we’re operating in a virtual world of commerce with no face to face contact, it doesn’t make people any less human, does it? Okay, so there is an element of remoteness and individualism, when it comes to doing business online from your own home office, but it would be wise to remember that the leads, the visitors, and traffic are very real people.
And I for one believe that we should all be treated with some respect.
Now if you’re looking to find real opportunities and real time saving software products and really useful services all in one place, the information highway offers precious little choice. The no alternative option is to blow the Google bugle and find it all yourself, which can be fun if you have nothing better to do, but a real pain in the butt if time is of the essence.
I take my hat of then, to those that have spent the time searching, filtering, trying and testing products and services for the benefit of others. And when they neatly list these goodies on an easy to navigate website, for all to enjoy, I’ll gladly buy something useful as my way of thanking them for their efforts. This can only go some way to encouraging them to add more useful links in time for my next visit.
A website I came across recently fits this description perfectly. The Net Reaper, although sinister in name and design is steadily harvesting the type of products and services that will be of interest to at least some people if not most. New links are being added every day and it won’t be too long before the site itself will become a directory of interesting, informative and useful entities.
I’m sure other similar sites exist, but I found myself clicking on this site’s link through morbid curiosity, as I’m sure others will do. There’s a lot to be said for a well thought domain name. Wished I’d have thought of it.
Next time you’re searching the Internet and you come across a website which looks good, is easy to navigate and has useful products, give up a little respect to the webmaster. If the site looks as though it has taken a lot of time and effort to put together, it most probably has.
