An online turnkey business opportunity is one that can be plugged in, turned on, and operated with little or no additional configuring. Is it realistic to expect such a thing on the internet today?

I have been involved with Internet marketing for a while now I can tell you that an Internet business that is 100% hands off is not going to be easy to find.

If you have money, you can take an opportunity and pretty much turn it into a turnkey operation. The way you do that is to outsource much of the day-to-day operations of running an Internet business.

To make money on the Internet you need to have traffic coming to a website or blog where you sell something a customer has a need for or an interest in. To get that traffic you’re either going to have to pay for it or do free methods.

Google Adwords is an example of a pay per click campaign that you can set up and can be somewhat hands-off. You can hire someone to run it for you and it really wouldn’t take you much time.

Free methods of advertising such as article marketing or blogging can be hands-off as well because you can hire someone to write articles and market them for you.

In terms of a turnkey business opportunity you’re looking for a moneymaking website or blog that’s already built, a quality product to sell, a way to collect the money, and a way to ship the product.

This is possible, but expect to have to put some time into getting traffic once you have your system in place and that makes an online turnkey business opportunity not 100% automated.
