Looking for some part time work from home. I'm retired navy with a full time shipyard job. But I love the computer on my free time. So why not work part time? Anything but sales please. Thanks!

You can look into either SEM or SEO work.

Those are two avenues of helping businesses generate leads and sales online. SEM generally refers to paid ads, either on through direct searches, or display (whether through facebook, websites, etc) and SEO is the process of optimizing a website to slowly rise through the search results page rankings.

Between the two of those, PPC has a lower barrier for entry but lower pay rates. SEO is a lot more complex and you're often at the mercy of google updating its search engine, but the pay is better. If PPC is done right, you can see immediate results whereas SEO is a much slower process.

If you're interested in learning more, I can point you to a couple of resources for both.

Solo,

I'm interested in starting up in PPC as a side job. What resources would you recommend?

To the OP:

I should add that most of the remote jobs out there in this industry require experience and a good reputation. Though you could probably start by acquiring freelance clients.

Please email information to me as well. Very interested in learning more.

If any of you guys looking into SEM/SEO work want to test out your skills here in College Station drop me a line, as I have a few companies that could use some cost effective test efforts. Could be a win-win if you're willing to test and further develop your skills for young companies, typically startups. They're early stage and can't typically pay much more than minimum wage, but that's a low risk starting point for you.
