Thursday Thirteen - 13 Types Of Home Business To Consider
Home businesses range from small one-person operations to larger ones with employees and equipment. They may be operated solely online or completely off line in a portion of your home. Also, you might have the office in your home, but your service is performed at your customer/client’s house or business.

Ooh, good list! Just be careful @ #6 - it’s strictly regulated in many states.

Nice list! I notice that freelance writing is missing. :0) But the list is a great one — full of possibilities for those who want to move away from writing-type jobs.

Thanks, Kelly, for pointing out the concern about #6…daycare. I think each state has its own regulations. As you say, they’re usually very strict. I’ll have to search, but I think someone inquired, in a comment at a previous post, where to find daycare regulation info and another commenter gave a web site.

Thanks, Miranda, for visiting and giving your input. I’m planning to give an online list of possibilities, which could include freelance writing. As I read this one over, I realized most of these were for in home or physical businesses which could have online or blog possibilities.
