    Hi,

    If you run your own online business, you make websites and they are growing up day by day. You busy all the time. Will you run it by yourself or rent people around the world manage it with you. Please give advices :)

    And do you think that your business can survive if you just copy/paste content to your site?

    Probably not the best business approach :(

    I have very few websites and most of them have no use.So I don't want anyone to take for them.

    If you are making money on whatever you are doing now, you should invest in RIGHT people that will help growing your business. At some point I realized that I would make much more money by hiring right people and making a great team, than if I would try to do everything myself.

    I run 3 websites + 1 forum all alone :)

    They are really not busy but I love to manage them alone. May be if my smsbucket forum will grow in future I will think about hiring some paid moderators, but it will take time.

    It depends on what kind of business are you into. Just make sure that you are expert on it if you decided to go solo for the first few months. But once you earn extra income, try to invest more people but also be sure to hire the right person ( meaning you dont need to have extensive trainings). And for the owner part, always let your money work for you rather than you make your money.. :cool:

    One blog: provides free SEO training courses ( I wrote all the articles :) ), earn money from Google Adsense. I decide to write more and more unique articles about marketing and SEO on this blog and earn more money from the Ad.

    One online shop: earn a little

    One affiliate site: earn a little

    See I'm not agree about copy/paste content method. It means, we are trying to provide duplicate content. And yess, we can do the business alone. If you are quite aware of web building and seo,it's not hard to run a business.. my idea is to work hard for your website for atleast 1 year, and then relax..! take a long breathe and monitor your ranking. But be sure to update your website daily..

    Yes you can, but you need to hire someone so your business will grow.
    No one can do big thing alone

    Of course you can, lots of people run their own business and make six figures a year. If you want to expand though, it is necessary to either outsource and hire people to do the "grunt work" for you, while you manage. This way you can things on a larger scale and take your biz to the next level. Think big or get left behind.

    it depends on how many websites you have.less than 10 websites can be handled by a person alone.this is just an estimation taking normal factors that your site is normal and you have normal time for work.so it depends at last on you
