Building your first online business website

Okay, so a couple of months ago (or was that a year ago?), I was toying around with the idea of starting an online internet business.  I started making a list of what I would need: a domain, a web hosting service, a website, and of course, products to sell.  While buying a domain and getting a web hosting service weren't all that cheap, they weren't all that expensive either.  Those were the least of my concerns.  What I hit a snag on were the remaining pieces of the puzzle!

Building a website

Building your own site is no walk in the park, especially for a non-web designer person such as myself.  From my initial list, I now started a new list under "website."  Unfortunately, all I knew to put under that list is HTML.  Now learning HTML is not exactly a walk in the park, but it's not exactly rocket science either.  More and more people are learning it everyday, whether via classroom training or via online self-taught training.  The problem with this is the time it will actually take you to learn it.  So now I've learned it, along with CSS and Javascript.  What now?  Although I'm proud to say that I've put up my own website, it IS rather plain and uninspired.  A graphic designer I am not, undoubtedly.  More work in store for me, for sure, before I can start with my online business empire...

Products to sell

So assuming I had my own domain and hosting services, and I can competently build my own website without using Dreamweaver and the like, what was I going to sell?  Practically, one should sell what one has knowledge and interest of, right?  I guess to that end, I still would need to come up with a real list of niche markets I'll consider getting into.  I have a lot of interests: video games, electronics, movies, etc., so it's not going to be easy.

Bottomline

Fortunately for you, there IS a solution, at least for the first two parts of the puzzle (domain/hosting, site building).  An all-in-one solution, if you will.  I first came across this solution months ago.  I believe it to be a very very excellent value for money, especially for people who already have the third part of the puzzle figured out, but are not sure about the first two.  And I guess the only reason why I haven't taken this route is because I really wanted to learn how to code HTML in the first place.  I'm a purist, if there's such a thing.  Anyhow, as I was saying, there's this excellent all-in-one solution for people who do not want to be bothered with buying a domain and finding a reliable web hosting service, and do not know how to build a site, but already have an idea of what they would want to market online: Site Build It! or simply, SBI!  I can't even begin to tell you how much value you get from this site!  They give you a domain and web-hosting services, they give you a plethora of website designs you can choose from, and they will help you build your site from start to finish, AND they will give you tips on how to market your site!  They have an excellent support team that's committed to your success every step of the way.  And when you decide to stop using their services, the domain is YOURS.  You get to keep it.  Isn't that just sweet?!?

So again, if you're itching to get started with a great idea in mind, let SBI! help you get your site up and running in the quickest time possible, with solid support and years of experience that you can count on.  You can watch videos of hundreds of satisfied members to help you decide if SBI! is right for your needs.  You owe it to yourself to check on this opportunity right now.  Here's their homepage.

Me?  I'll be along pretty soon.  As I've mentioned in previous posts, I've yet to learn PHP, MYSQL, and JOOMLA.  When I'm done with those, maybe then I'll have an idea of what to sell.  But then again, maybe I'll  just get SBI! too :).

To our mutual success,

Jon
