How to Build a Website With Google
1. Go to the Google Sites website and sign into your account with your email address and password. If you have yet to create a Google account, select the 'Sign Up for Sites' option.
2. Use the wizard tool to set up the basics of your website. You will need to give the site a name, description, assign a URL, pick a theme and determine your privacy level. You can allow your new site to be available to the general public or only to a few select users.
3. Click on the 'Create New Page' menu after you manage your settings. You can choose a webpage, dashboard, announcement, file cabinet or list format. You must also provide a name for each page.
4. Paste in your content. You then will be redirected to a blank page that appears as a word-processing document. Type texts, paste pictures, download attachments and include links to build the site.
5. Add more webpages, change the layout and include tables on your new site. Browse all of the edit tools to make adjustments to your site. When you are done, select the 'Save' key and the changes will go live.
6. Track recent activity and change any of your edits by signing into Google Sites. You also can create multiple websites and manage them through your single Google account.

How to Make Money Working at Home on the Computer
1. Work in freelance. A lot of content is produced online, and companies need talent. Home workers use creative software such as Adobe products as well as communication software such as VoIP to allow them to work from home. Graphic designers, website builders and writers can work from home on the computer. Think about skills you have that can be used to make money from home.
2. Supplement your income by working as a call center agent from your home. Companies such as Arise employ independent contractors to work as agents from their homes. These agents provide customer support to a wide variety of companies. All you need to have is a computer with Internet access and a phone line.
3. Create passive income by establishing a website. A website is a great tool for making money online through an ad service such as Google AdSense. You get paid when a visitor clicks on the ad, so the more visitors you bring to your website, the easier it is for you to make money.
4. Sell products online. The online world is a great marketplace where you can sell goods to a wide audience, both domestic and internationally. Many people rely on their online stores for income. You can start with a small store on eBay selling things you own to build credibility and then establish an independent online store.
5. Set up a direct deposit to your bank account. When you make money at home, you also need to consider how you will get paid. One of the perks of working at home is that you get paid quickly. Most people who work at home set up direct deposits so they can get their salary on time.

How to Compare Google Advertising Rates
Google Keyword Tool
1. Go to the Google Keyword Tool page. The link is available in Resources. You do not need to sign into a Google AdWords account, but you may do so, if you have one. It will not make a difference.
2. Enter a keyword into the box on the left in the 'Find Keywords' section. The keyword you enter should be relevant to a specific product or service you want to promote. In other words, use one of the keywords your target customers would type into Google when they are looking for a product or service like yours.
3. Select the box next to 'Only show ideas closely related to my search terms.' Click the 'Search' button and allow Google to deliver the search results. This displays a spreadsheet of keywords related to the one you entered, along with Google search data about those keywords.
4. Click the 'Columns' drop-down menu above the search results, and make sure 'Estimated Avg. CPC' is selected. This displays the estimated average cost-per-click for each keyword listed, letting you compare the Google advertising rates for the displayed keywords.
5. Click the top of any column to sort the related keywords by competition, global monthly searches and local monthly searches, to get further insight.
6. Repeat Steps 1 through 5 with different keywords -- and keep doing so -- until you have a general idea about the size of your market, competition and going rates for your related keywords.
Google Traffic Estimator
7. Go to the Google Traffic Estimator page. Again, you do not need to sign into a Google AdWords account, but you may do so if you have one.
8. Enter a keyword into the box on the left in the 'Get Traffic Estimates' section. Again, the keyword you enter should be generically relevant to a specific product or service you want to promote.
9. Hit 'Enter' to drop the cursor to a new line. Type another keyword related to your business. Repeat with as many keywords as you wish, then click the 'Estimate' button. This displays a comparison chart for all of the keywords you entered.
10. Click the 'Columns' drop-down menu and select every available option. Click the 'Estimated Avg. CPC' column header, to organize the keywords by cost-per-click. Click 'Estimated Daily Cost' to organize the keywords by total daily cost.
11. Organize and compare your related keywords by global or local monthly search frequency, estimated ad position on Google search pages, estimated daily click-through for ads containing those keywords, the amount of competition you face when bidding on ad placements, and local search trends.
12. Repeat Steps 1 through 5 as often as you think of new keywords. Over time, you will develop a sense of which keywords most closely relate to your business, pull in the most traffic and command the most sensible Google advertising investment.
How to Get Reinstated on eBay
1. Determine why your account has been suspended. eBay sends you an email explaining why it has taken this action. You may also find this information if you didn't get the email by logging into the messages section of 'My eBay.'
2. Pay off any outstanding balance that you owe eBay. Most suspensions are for non-payment. Clearing your balance should automatically reinstate your account.
3. Look for any other reason why your account is blocked. Other reasons can include a bad email address, unauthorized transactions or activity limits set on your account.
4. Contact eBay to resolve any of these issues. You can respond directly to the suspension notice via email, or you can contact eBay through the website.
5. Appeal any unpaid item strikes that appear on your account. Contact a seller directly if he placed a flag on your account. Otherwise, file the Unpaid Item Appeal Form with eBay and provide proof of payment (see Resources).
