If you do it right over time, you begin to develop a solid reputation online. This is credibility that you earn, because you brand yourself as someone who knows what they are talking about in the niche that your website is in. For example, if you are in the home business niche. People may look to you for advice on what are approved work at home opportunities.

Your your stamp of approval can go a long way in determining whether somebody wants to join an opportunity or not.

So if you accept that responsibility, how do you determine what an approved work at home opportunity really is? Let's see if we can establish the few criteria every work at home opportunity should have before you approve of it.

1. Is it legitimate? A legitimate work at home opportunity is one where people really have an opportunity to make money. It's not theory, it is not pie in the sky either, because there are people earning money with it right now.

2. Does it offer real products? There is a lot crap available on the Internet, but will they pay money for it over a long period of time. This really is not a good business opportunity to build your business around. A good roduct is something that people have a need for, an interest in, and are presently spending money on.

3. Can you earn money selling it? What is the point of having a business of your own if the products you sell are not profitable. Certainly running a business from home online allows you to set a lower pricing point then you could if you had a traditional retail store.

Nevertheless you need to be able to price your product so they will sell for profit, allowing you to stay in business. If you cannot do this it should not be an approved work at home opportunity for a product that people are trying to make money selling.

4.If you approve any work at home opportunity you should personally have experience with. We have all seen the so-called gurus, band together, adding testimonials to products they have never ever seen. I would hope that you are at least involved in the opportunity personally. Or you have done your own due diligence before you lend your testimonials to it.

This is just fours things I thought of that should go into making an approved work at home opportunity. You may have other criteria, and that's great!
