This is October 2016; until recent years it was difficult to successfully do online or Internet oriented business in Nigeria, mostly due to lack of technology and also due to the perceived dubious nature of some Nigerians who try to misuse every opportunity to their detriments. In the beginning you had to get a fake US address and a virtual Credit card to transact online, most e-commerce websites barred Nigerian addresses and IP from registering on their platforms.
Today the coast is clearer; Google has google NG, E-bay, Amazon, PayPal, etc. now recognize Nigerians and Nigerian payment channels and Cards for online payment. This has opened doors for Nigerians wanting to earn income online, whether part time or full time.
This brings the question of what profitable online ventures you can engage in as a Nigerian living in Nigeria. I am not trying to tell you about what I read in books or on the Internet. The items on this list are those I have personally engaged in and still engaging in. Of course I have engaged in much more than these but in the process I have gotten my fingers burnt hence I am presenting only those that have stood the test of time.
Let me sound some warnings:
1. If you are looking for something to do to get rich very overnight, then this Blog will not help you, you may want to go find money doublers or participate in lotteries.
2. At the end of this article I will present to you learning materials (E-books) you may be chose to buy in order to learn how to start any or all of these online businesses. If you are unwilling to pay for the materials you need, including my personal coaching/guidance, or you are unwilling to take time to learn how to start and succeed in these businesses, then there is no need to read further. You will pay for what you need, and once supplied to you, you won’t be able to get your money back. It will be incumbent on you to learn and implement the process to achieve your success goals, and it will be incumbent on me to help you with my maximum effort to succeed.
3. I will post one profitable online business per day for 8 consecutive days; you are encouraged to open this blog daily for the next 8 days to have a full read of the business ideas. I do not intend to bombard you with too many materials in one day, rather you read about one business idea, then spend time to research and learn more about it before you access the next one the next day. This way you will be able to make informed decision.
If you are still reading, congratulations! Here are the 8 online businesses you can start as soon as possible and profit from them as a Nigerian living in Nigeria:
