Trade works best when there is a healthy balance

RUNNING an online business is an increasingly popular option to earn income these days. After all, most of us already spend many hours a day connecting with others on social media, sending and receiving email, gathering information from the Web, and downloading pictures, documents, books, music and vi­­deos.

And of course, performing tran­sactions through personal compu­ters and smartphones has become second nature for many people. So why not set up shop in the digital world if we have something to sell? It can be fast and simple.
