The much awaited 2016 is here and already ticking away! Jan 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th are already rolling out and soon, Dec. 31st will come. Remember, there is really nothing called a NEW YEAR... every year is same number of days, weeks and months (except for a LEAP Year). What then makes a NEW YEAR? Very simple, - a NEW YOU!!!
This year can come to an end without any meaningful thing happening in your life and thus we can authoritatively say that for you, there was no NEW YEAR, just the usual.
There are many areas of your life that new things should happen so you can enjoy 2016 and prepare for the years ahead. One of them is your finances. Simply put, you should be worth more than you are now by the end of 2016.
What I’m going to share with you are some proven online businesses you can star with little capital and don’t require so much time nor need you to quit your current job.
Without any further delay, here we go;
1. Bulk SMS Website: [/b]a bulk sms website provides the platform for people to send customized bulk messages over the internet. This is a very lucrative business that you can start and you can get your capital back same day. I have mentored so many bulks sms resellers who are doing very well and thanking me today.
As a bulk sms site owner, all you need to do is tell a company link Blink Media, owners of www.pacesms.com and www.1unitsms.com the domain name you may want to use and pay a token of N15,000 into the company’s account. Within 48 hrs, you website will be ready and you can start making money.
The good part is that you don’t have to know about web design or computers. As long as you can access the internet to credit members of your site and you’re good to go.
[b]2. Webhosting: A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to make their website accessible via the World Wide Web. You can become a reseller selling shared hosting account bought from already existing web hosting service providers all over the internet.
Like bulk SMS this does not need any serious technical knowledge. You’re basically a retailer, buying and selling hosting spaces on the internet and the service providers do all the work and support.
3. Blogging: ‘A blog is basically a journal that is available on the web. The activity of updating a blog is “blogging” and someone who keeps a blog is a “blogger.” Blogs are typically updated daily using software that allows people with little or no technical background to update and maintain the blog. Postings on a blog are almost always arranged in chronological order with the most recent additions featured most prominently.’ Source
For all those who love to write, this is the business for you. What you do is very simple and fun, start writing about things you love and share them daily on the internet via your blog. When you do this consistently and with interesting write ups, more and more people will be visiting your blog. The magic is having so much interesting content and huge traffic. When you have this two, you’re ripe for some profit for just enjoying yourself writing. And guess what? You can start a blog absolutely free via .com.
Apart from advertising, you can make money from your blog via affiliate marketing.
The above ideas are not passport to automatic money. You need to start, consistently promote and run them like any other business for you to profit from them.
Have a beautiful 2016.

chumakk: The NUC or whatever should find out if the universities above are doing a good job and approved them but not closing them down. They are helping to reduce the amount of uneducated masses. What proof do you have that our so-called approved schools are better than the unapproved ones?

That is the right thing to do but I bet they'll do the opposite just like EFCC closed businesses of former governors instead of handing them over to the state as a source of revenue. A lot needs to be done in our policy making processes.

Top 10 Benefits Of Tablet PCs By Alan McMahon

As technology evolves, more and more gadgets and gizmos are introduced to the marketplace, which makes it difficult to decide which ones are worth acquiring, and which ones are better left on retailers’ shelves. When the tablet PC was first introduced, the longevity of it was questioned, since it’s a cross between a notebook and the traditional desktop PC, it thought by some to be a frivolous purchase. But over the years, it’s proved that it’s a useful tool for anyone who uses either a desktop or notebook, or both.
Here’s a look at the top ten benefits of a tablet PC:

1. It’s portable
No matter where business or pleasure takes you, they can take a tablet PC along with you. Sure, notebooks are also portable, but they are heavier and can’t easily be held with just one hand. Real estate agents can use a tablet for recording details when showing houses, or giving potential home buyers a peek inside other homes that are up for sale. Students can tote it around in their school bags and capture notes quickly and with ease during classes–no more lugging around half a dozen paper notebooks. Tablet PCs are also great for entertaining the kids on long car or plane trips; just put on a film or let them open a game, and they’ll be pleasantly quiet for a good length of time. Not to mention the tablet pc is the ideal medium for business presentations at customer meetings

2. It’s a great e-book reader
While most electronic books can be read on nearly any electronic device, reading is better on a tablet. It’s a lot more enjoyable to read novels when on the sofa, rather than sitting upright in a desk chair in one’s home office.

3. It’s comfortable to use
Tablets are sized to fit comfortably in one’s hands, even allowing you to hold the tablet with one hand which is great for reading or sharing the screen with others. Some tablet PCs offer rotating screens which makes using them with another person even easier. Since it’s also lightweight, it will be a go-to device when one needs to choose between a light weight tablet or a more cumbersome notebook computer.

4. It’s very functional
These portable devices make it easy to take most of what is in one’s PC with them where ever they go. Tablet users are never more than a few taps away from writing an email, chatting on Skype or searching the Internet to get information for their next big project.
5. It uses a reliable OS
Many tablets of today are using Android, Apple’s iOS or Microsoft’s Windows 8/Windows RT as their operating system, which translates into a user experience that is familiar to those who use traditional computers at home or at work.

6. It has powerful social networking tools
Since they are designed to connect to the Internet, tablets have great network applications that allow connecting with family, friends and business contacts on social media sites, collaborating on projects via cloud based applications and reading or watching the latest news.

7. It’s affordable
For as low as N30,000 you can own one. There is no shortage of choices in the tablet PC market, which means that there are products of all levels for every budget. It also costs less to support since it isn’t as fully functional as a regular desktop, and therefore fewer viruses are likely to harm the tablet.

8. It’s great for meetings
Whether the user is taking notes, recording what’s said or giving the presentation, a tablet is a useful in many situations. There’s no need to remember a pad of paper and a pen or pre-printed notes to help give a speech–all that information can be stored on a tablet. Users can reference past meeting notes without having to return to their office and look for them on their desktop. If the meeting brings up a question which requires an email being sent out ASAP? Send it off as soon as it gets typed up. For those who are ever stuck in a dull meeting, they can easily multi-task by catching up on some other work.

9. It’s better than a smartphone
While a phone may be labelled ”smart,” trying to take notes during a meeting or watching movies on it during a five-hour flight just won’t cut it on such a small device. Tablet PCs are larger and offer a better overall user experience whether reading, writing or watching a movie.

10. It’s a better user experience
Tablet PCs are larger and offer a better overall user experience whether reading, writing or watching a movie.
For those who’ve been on the fence about investing in a tablet PC, now is a great time to get one. Tablets have never been more affordable and they’re so useful that after using them for a matter of days, owners will wonder how they ever managed without one.
