There are many reasons why I like to make money online and not get in the car and drive to work.One is the 30 second commute to work. There are actually more reasons which I will quickly look at in this article.

1. My Internet business is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It does not close for the holidays! It does not take the weekends off.

It never sleeps which allows me to make money overseas even when I am asleep. This is a very powerful concept that only an Internet business can offer.

2. Making money online is much easier to do thanks to automation. I do not have to hire any employees because I can automate many of the aspects of my business which allows me to get more done.

Le me give you an example of what I am talking about. When I do article marketing I use a submission company to submit my article to hundreds of directories at one time.

I no longer have to submit them manually one at a time. By automating this process I am more effective which frees up my time to do other things in my business.

Autoresponders are another example of the power of automation on the Internet today. I can mail out an offer for a product to thousands of people with the click of one button.

By building a large email marketing list I can earn a full time income and make money online just using my auto responder. I can even pre program it for several years in advance.

3. Today I can communicate with people all around the world instantly. One example of this is Skype.

This Internet telephone service is free and allows me to talk to people regardless of where they live. I can answer a question about my product and make money online selling it to them in ways I never could have before.

Thanks to websites such as Facebook and Twitter social networking is a big part of making money online. These sites are great way to make more money and can be a lot of fun as well.

4. You cannot trust companies to provide jobs anymore. The days of working 40 years for the same company and job security are gone.

Now nobody works for one company for 40 years and then retires. This trust factor forced me to develop a way to make money working from home and I'm glad I did.
