to work on a project for a set period of time. Doing online
joint ventures can increase your chances of beating your
competition, increasing your sales and profits, saving time
and money, getting valuable referrals, and increasing your

1. A simple joint venture would be exchanging text links or
banners with other related web sites.

market. You both will be marketing and advertising the same

same for your business.
