50 automated websites that could earn you for life (1) here are some of the automated websites that could earn you for life Technology has made life easier than expected, what is remaining is the ability to maximize technology to create wealth for oneself. There are thousands of websites that are automated (programmed, preset) which you can own and have as additional means of income. Before going to some of these websites, here are few facts you need to know about these automated websites Why you need one of these sites Mail us to request for setup information on any of these sites (please write the code number for reference) contact us Lets design your website, see proofs here naija4web They are already automated and programmed: This means they perform routine job on your behalf based on the settings given to it by you. If for example, you send a mail to someone, you may receive instant feedback, telling you that your message has been received. This is automation. The feedback was as a result of presetting given to the email address. If you own any of these automated websites, it means many functions will be performed on your behalf even when you are asleep. They can be run or maintained easily: These sites can be run either as a part time or full time. You can run it without leaving your present job. You can even maintain it from your bedroom, sitting room or office as you do not necessarily need an office for it. You also (as a starter) need no helping hand as most of the settings will be done once and the website does the rest. They are relatively cheap: These websites because of its automation are relatively cheap. Firstly the set up cost is cheap. Maintaining it is also cheap compared to if you were to employ staff to undertake the tasks (that were being performed by the site) for you. A lifetime income: These websites are lifetime income. You continue to reap from it till you decide to sell it. You also continue to earn from it even when you are on sickbed or while on travelling. You also earn from it even after retiring from active service and interestingly the longer the life of a website the better for the site. They do not require special training or skill: One amazing fact about these websites is that they do not require a certain formal education level or a special skill for you to run it. The only skill requires is to be computer literate. In addition, the requirement to start running any of these sites it to have a computer (laptop, desktop, ipad, tablet etc.) and internet connection, with these two you are on the move. It can be maintained on the move: to run any of these sites, you do not (necessarily) need an office or station somewhere. You can run it from your room, place of work, or even in your car on the move. It’s so flexible. Having any of these automated websites is a means to an end to seeking for jobs or better put, planning for a better later life (retirement). So think of any of these you need to start with and start today. Also before choosing a type of website to own, you must consider yourself as you can easily excel in your best area of passion and profession. If, for example you love youth, think of sport, job, youth, education or fashion related website. If you have passion for health (or you are a health professional); think of health, gymnastic or such related website. Who needs these sites Having any of these automated websites is a means to an end to seeking for jobs or better put, seeking for paid or monthly job. Planning for a better later life (retirement) with good business feasibility report, you can live better life even than in your active service life.

Categorically, the following people should give this a priority: Job seekers, undergraduate, students, retired workers, house wives, physically challenged people, working class people, and any category of people seeking for lifetime opportunity with ‘pension benefits for life’. contact us to enquire about the set up details (the price, number of set up days etc) How you earn from any of the site: Apart from specific ways of earning form each of the sites, you can earn by selling space in your website (for advert) or place advert codes (google adsence, chitika, etc) on your site.

Absolute truism! I am into self employed and wont give it up for anything, not even a bank job, federal government job or anything else. There are so many advantages in being self employed and also include growing at your own pace, not being at the whims and caprice of "oga at the top" etc and with a clear vision and hard work one can achieve whatever he dreams of, though the economy at the moment can be frustrating to business owners but at the same time you are not at risk of being sacked if you were to be working for someone. 1 Like 1 Share |

ObiOkpor:Right on point. I am in a salaried employment and there are days I wish I could extend my sleep till at least 9:00am, but I can't. I have to keep showing up at work 8:00am whether I feel like or not. Sometimes the stress accumulates and my personal output drops, but no one gives a damn as long as I show up at work as required. Most days I just stare at my computer till 4:30 . . . (or I lounge at NL like I am doing now ![]() ![]() PS: Don't get me wrong. I love the fact that I don't have to hussle too much for the money I am getting. The financial security is cool, but I feel something precious dying inside of me . . . |

I will work for myself when I retire and can rely on strong asset base and limitless cash flow. I tried that stunt once and was parking my car to jump buses and leg the rest to meet appointments that yielded nothing. After a while I dusted my degrees and joined the corporate ladder. Today they provide my cars and fuel, mega size generator with diesel, they pay my club bills, pick my phone bills, pay my DSTV, where do I even stop. Salary is regular, they pay for offshore and local trainings, i use the employers facilities to even do small PPs and even the tablet I am using to type this plus the data is provided by them. Let me continue to manage the 8 to 5pm thing abeg. The benefits far outweigh the downside. Meanwhile, i pray that God will provide all of us with meaningful jobs and opportunities to enable us make informed decisions whether we want to work for ourselves or others. Peace 1 Like 1 Share |

I always refer folks to the four quadrants employed self employed business owner investor if u are as miserable or more miserable than somebody working in a company ...then its blind pride and foolishness to be self employed many benefits being employed in a standard organisation ( gratuity, pensions, health insurance, basic salaries, incentives and stability) being self employed should assure all that... i know many self employed pple that live below par.. they dont earn enough, barely get by, no health insurance, no stability.. In a country like ours, where standard employment is hard.. i do not disapprove self employment... but it could be a means to get by, save up, learn and make yourself relevant to the global working environment... then you could decide if you will be better off starting a real thing ( owning business that can employ pple, gives u rest of mind, puts money in ur pocket and avails u free time to try out other things) enough trash about owning a barbing salon, selling indomie in cartons, making beads, photography and the likes... the market is saturated... monopoly thrives .. so acquire some relevant skill ( nebosh , ican etc) with ur my opinion 1 Like 1 Share |
