I first thought of building a home internet business when the politics of my job became sadly comical. There was no rhyme or reason to the decisions that were being made except that the best political monsters got the best opportunities and advancement.

Here's the kicker - I love my job but I hate the politics. Sound familiar?

Where was I to go next? Should I go for an advanced degree? What will that get me after two years of working like a dog? If the politics are still the same I will have to leave the job I love or even the company in which I have so many vested interests.

It was then that I turned to a dusty computer sitting in the den. The most use it has seen is to play video games and read e-mail from family and friends. Although these are important past times, the true potential of my machine was being over-looked.

The potential power of the computer to advance my family's interests was opened to me over a few nights of eye-blurring research. The first thing I did was figure out what I wanted to try. The opportunities that I was looking for had to have a real product that had value to consumers. I have seen pyramid schemes before and I knew those weren't for me. I also knew that pure MLM was not something I wanted to do (again - like everyone, I have tried that once before). As I continued with my research I found certain synergies with a few opportunities.

My first two sites were very focused on specific products but, I can tell you now, that those alone were not enough for a newcomer to Internet Marketing. Eventually, I joined a few more affiliate programs that provided extensive training, resources and support for building those businesses. It just so happened that the things I learned from those affiliations were also helping me run my other product sites better. They have also given me inspiration to build a niche business with the job that I still love doing. Imagine if you could take a job that you love and make a business out of doing it for yourself.

The affiliate programs that came in the second phase of my home internet business venture are sparking all kinds of creative ideas and support to make money on the internet. I am also in a position now to help other affiliates in my down line due to the knowledge and experience I gained with the second phase affiliate programs. Recently, I was inspired to start researching my specific niche (you know the job I love) to try and find ways that I can do that as one of my online businesses.

This is exciting stuff and I recommend that others try out the synergies that can be created by participating in more than one affiliate program.
