You have a boat load of content and you have plenty of good domain names. How are you going to turn the free content that you received into real value?
Create webpages filled with the interesting content. I am not going to lie. Some content that you get for free is going to be really hard to read. The solution is to use your best effort to create a better version of the information in your own words.
Another option is to create an audio version of the content. Read it to yourself first and then record an audio mp3 file that you can share online. You could give it away for free or you might want to turn it into a product that you could sell.
Start using your creativity. Come up with a way to bring the content to niche audiences. People sometimes have access to the same information, but they can view it differently.
The free content that you might receive could be used to help build up bigger and better articles for your blogs or reports. Your articles might approach a topic from one direction, but the free articles could give a different view point. You might want to compare and contrast the different views.
Now, it is time for you to think about how you can do it yourself. Do you have free articles sitting on your hard drive? Don't let them sit there collecting dust. Come up with a way to use them for your benefit, and for the benefit of your online and offline readers.

Change the Format
You keep on creating new content and posting it online, but you notice that the amounts in your accounts is not going up. The number of views is not going up drastically either. It might be time to start doing something different.
Doing the same tasks over and over without seeing an improvement should be time for change. If you are writing lots of good quality content, but the online audience is not going for it, start doing something different.
Instead of waiting on pennies from online ads, think about taking your content in a new direction, in a new format. So your blogging is not picking up steam, start writing some ebooks. Give away some content with your affiliate links installed.
One of the benefits of giving away content in a pdf format is that you don't have to worry about getting your site banned. The content is there and available for download. Use online sharing sites, or take it to the next level and offer a printed version of your information.
Your content is valuable in more ways than just one. If one format is not working, decide to try something new. Give some new life to your old blogging content. See if you can revisit some of your old content and transform it into a different format for audiences.

Internet Business Choices
He walked into the room and sat down in the leather chair in front of the computer screen. He hit the firefox icon on the windows xp desktop and opened up the web page showing the latest developments on the internet.
This was the beginning of the day for the person writing a quick story for web content. The story could focus on anything. It might be about a home business owner that decided to give consulting a try. There is always a need for a good consulting service. So the new web writer decided to pick up a book called the official get rich guide to information marketing. He opens up the book and starts to read.
The story makes sense. Writing tons of articles for other cheap writing sites just didn't make any sense anymore. The question of what they were doing with the articles was always a question that didn't get answered. Were they putting that content on blogs? Were they making ebooks and sell them over and over again? What if they were paying a few dollars for a few articles and then putting those articles together in ebooks and selling them online year after year?
The web writer might have finally decided to look at the work that was being produced and looking at it from the other side of the table. How hard would it be to setup a website or a blog? How hard would it be to create a consulting service or sell ebooks? The writer had to finally get away from the employee mindset and start thinking like a real business owner. There is a difference in working on a job and owning a business. The web writer would have to do more jobs initially. Just doing the job of writing is not enough. He would have to learn about marketing and leadership. The ability to focus would also be put to the test.
The web writer did finally realize that a business is different from working on a job. A job might come with a boss and a steady paycheck, but it could also be taken away at any time. A business has the potential for unlimited income.
The web writer will have to take action and deal with rejection. It is still just a process and the web writer understands this. Just like the first draft, the web writer understands that there will be small victories and defeats. The web writer leans back into the chair and imagines the long term effects of getting started now on an internet based business.

Writing for Your Home Based Business Idea
The web writer has an unlimited source of material. All they have to do is use the tools that they have. This could be something simple like a regular computer. Not even the latest and greatest computer models like the apple macbook pro. They could use an old windows xp computer that is connected to the internet.
Writers can come up with stories all day long. It is related to business because stories can be used in lots of different ways. The web writer does not have to punch a clock or wait for approval. They can just decide to sit down and start using what they have to get a product done.
Just think about not having to put expensive gasoline into your car. The web writer can just walk over to a computer and then create content that has long lasting power. The stories can be generated talking about the current topics or they can be timeless stories that will be interesting in the future.
So what are you waiting for? You could be taking this time to open up microsoft word or notepad to start creating that story that everybody online is just waiting to read.
The next time that you are walking around, look to see if people are reading information on those tablet computers ( the amazon kindle or those cheap irulu tablets). These mobile devices are selling and people are going to want to read something on them. Can you write a good story? How do you really know unless you give it a try. This could be your perfect home based business.

Business Barriers and Mobile Webpages
Your competition is only a few clicks away. Someone sitting with smartphone or a tablet computer can jump into the online publishing world. They can come up with an idea for a site and have it online in a matter of minutes.
The barriers of entry to the online world are low. Everybody is selling everything. People are posting real world products for sale with smartphone devices and placing classified ads. They are creating apps. They are producing items that customers can touch and digital products.
What kind of business are you going to start? What about digital training? There is always a new group of students that are ready to learn. What do you know how to teach?
Can you create webpages? Sure, you can make them. If you don't know how to make webpages, you can outsource it. Read the 4 hour work week. It is about using leverage these days.
Everything is changing. People use to read webpages at a desktop computer, now they need mobile ready webpages. There are probably still a lot of business owners that have not changed their original online webpages that they had built before the year 2000.
Now, companies have to be ready for different types of devices. The laptop and the desktop are not the only game in town. Responsive pages can change based on the type of device viewing the page. Businesses need webpages for tablet devices and smartphones. They don't want to the mobile web user.
