Many people are realizing that that the Internet is making it possible to earn additional income without the difficulties that come with running a traditional business, such as finding startup capital. In many cases, these roadblocks may be eliminated entirely with online business. Moreover, when it comes to income, online businesses have the potential to generate more than a little revenue. In some cases, that extra income may be somewhere in the six figure range. In this post, Distributel will go into detail about some of the best online businesses to start in 2017.

The Internet has made it possible to sell your own expertise. An example of this would be turning our knowledge of how to use SEO to grow your business into an online product, such as an e-book. The benefits of this are that it’s highly scalable and, in doing so, offers a great opportunity to build your own brand in the process. Other perks include the fact that there is little overhead involved. This unique ability of capitalizing on your expertise and turning it into a product to be sold is something that is open to just about everyone, regardless of your credentials.

Of course, there are other online businesses that resemble more traditional forms of business, whether you sell your crafts via Etsy or you sell patterns and designs, using social media platforms, YouTube tutorials and email marketing to gain exposure instead of Etsy.

As you can see, there are many opportunities to create an online business in order to bring in extra income, with the extra possibility of it being seriously lucrative.
