The goal of this article is to change the way you may think about making money on the Internet with a website.

You do not need a degree in web programming or any formal training in web design. All I’ve done over the past several years is create information websites on topics that interest me, then I earn commissions by displaying ads and recommending related products.

Your site can do something like I just described or you can sell your own product or service. It’s up to you.

And here’s the best way to build an ecommerce website without getting bogged down in the technical aspect of web design and maintenance.

Finally A Web Host For You, The BEGINNER!
Ken Evoy has created software by the name of “Site Build It!” and it has literally changed the way everyday people are profiting on the Internet. It’s certainly changed my life and I now work from home full time. Watch the quick, 2-minute video below…

Video

 Site Build It! is an all-in-one website creation and marketing tool that walks you through the entire process step by step by step. If you want my opinion, it’s the ONLY host you should ever use to create a business website.

It builds your design, helps you create your web pages, submits your site to the “important” search engines, monitors your rankings, offers advice for making your pages rank higher, creates an online store if you want to sell products, adds feedback forms and the list goes on and on.

There’s no programming experience necessary and every part of this tool is completely browser based. It’s all point, click and type.

Ken doesn’t want you to spend time learning how to build a shopping cart, program scripts, and learn HTML. He wants you to focus on running your business. SBI! will do all that backend stuff for you so you can spend time getting those sales.

An Incredible Brainstorming Tool
This is worth the price of Site Build It alone. You will receive access to a tool that is probably worth thousands of dollars to your business and that’s no exaggeration. Fortunately for you it comes with the SBI! subscription and won’t cost you anything extra. ;)

The brainstorming tool will literally scour the web and help you decide on the most “profitable” topic/niche as well as assist you with choosing the best search-engine friendly domain name (your-site.com).

Here’s how it works…

You will tell the tool your topic/ideas for your site by entering the keyword phrases you plan to target. It will tell you how many sites already exist on this topic, how many times certain related searches are done in Google, Yahoo, etc. and finally return a number called a “profitability index”.

You keep using this brainstorming tool until you’ve come up with a topic you are satisfied with AND has a decent “profitability” score. In other words, you’re looking for a topic that is in high demand (adequate searches in Google, Yahoo, etc.) but not too much competition (how many sites already exist on that topic).

Let me reiterate….You couldn’t do ANY of this without Site Build It! And don’t let any other web host fool you into thinking they can. If they say they can, ask them to show you 400 examples of successful ecommerce websites like SBI! can.

Easy Web Page Building Tool
I’ve been rambling on and on about the brainstorming tool and haven’t even touched on the actual site-building part. That’s probably worth another couple of hundred dollars too. Again…lucky for you, it’s included with the SBI! price. :)

You will be able to choose from several pre-designed HTML templates in all different colors and styles. Once you’ve decided on the “look and feel” for your site then you simply just add your text. You’ll be able to customize the header, navigation, background colors, etc. with the click of a button.

There is absolutely NO PROGRAMMING needed whatsoever. All that is done behind the scenes. If you can use a mouse, you can use SBI!. Period.

Do I Have to Use Site Build It?
I would never say that you MUST use this tool to become successful with your ecommerce business. I’m only saying that you MUST use it if you’re serious about success.

The reason most ecommerce websites fail is because people simply don’t know how to draw in traffic to their website. They don’t know how to get their sites into Google or Yahoo — much less rank in the top 10 for their major keywords.

People waste so much time and money on ineffective promotions that bring no traffic — such as paying for some automated submission service that promises to submit to all the search engines when these companies have no clue how to get a good rank for their own site…much less yours!

SBI! will guide your site to search engine success — even down to choosing the most effective domain name (yourname.com). And as you’re building your pages it will tell you to add and subtract certain keywords, shorten your title, etc. — all in efforts to improve your search engine rank.

Why did traffic come so fast? Because the research tool that is provided helps you choose the right topic/niche and domain name to maximize the free search engine traffic – a feature no other web host provides.

In the 3rd month, I started adding Google’s Adsense ads to my site and started earning an income right away. That’s the nice thing about the Internet is that you can earn revenue from your site no matter the topic, thanks to affiliate programs (most are free to join).

Look at all the SBI! customers who are on top of the search engines . Hopefully you can now see that it is definitely not hype. It’s for real. You just saw actual websites built by people who used SBI!. Have you ever seen a company provide that many examples of success?

Those aren’t programmers behind those sites. Many are novices like you who knew nothing about starting an ecommerce website. These are moms, teachers, students, and other everyday people who are looking to earn an additional income on the web.

What Kind of Site Do You Want to Create?
For those of you that already have a topic in mind….GREAT! You’ll see how SBI! can help you develop it so you can build an ecommerce site that attracts lots of visitors that want to buy what you have to offer.

If you’re not sure exactly how you want to make money with your website that’s OK. Maybe you aren’t even sure what’s possible out here. That’s OK too.

Visit this site below and discover the different ways “Site Build It” can help you achieve your income goals. I’m always amazed at the many ways this one tool can help grow so many different kinds of ecommerce websites.

100% Money Back Guarantee
In my opinion, a company is only as good as their guarantee and SiteSell makes sure they honor what they promise. If for any reason you find SBI! is not right for you, they will refund you completely. Don’t worry, though. You won’t want your money back. :)

It doesn’t matter how long you’ve used SBI! and there are no other stipulations. If you are not happy, SiteSell will refund you – no questions asked!

Read their guarantee and the letter from the president, Ken Evoy. In a nutshell, all this means is that trying Site Build It is absolutely risk-free. :)

 

 

Build Your Main Website First

Many people don’t ever get this, but the key to making your store popular and successful is to build your main site and have that act as a gateway to your online store.  I can’t stress how important that is.

In other words, work on getting traffic to your main site via the search engines and then link your store to this main website.

The reason is, it’s much easier for the search engines to find your themed, content-rich website than it is to find a single stand-alone store. 

In fact, most search engines won’t even add your store to their index by itself, but they will list your main website that links to your store.  So that’s why you need to focus on that main site first.

So if you want to sell your knitting needles online, you would first create a content-rich site on sewing.  Offer tons of tips and guidelines on this subject to help draw in search engine traffic.

Then from those search-engine-friendly pages you would link to your online store.  This is much more effective than just trying to promote a stand-alone store.

That’s what Jim did with his Site Build It! site.

 

Build a Niche Store on eBay
Another way to make money from an online store is to create a niche store that earns revenue by affiliating with eBay.

BuildANicheStore.com is a product that teaches you how to set all this up. I can’t emphasize enough how taking this approach to creating a store is much better than trying to start off by competing with Amazon and other popular retailers.

Finding a niche is the most important step, so it’s crucial that you take the time to do this first.

My Recommendation

If you are new to building a website, I strongly recommend you either consider Site Build It! or Build A Niche Store 

Both have generated a solid reputation online for helping people make money with a store and they give beginners the guidance they need to get started
I haven’t found any other reputable companies that offer this kind of help and support.

Create Your Own Income-Generating Website With Site Build It!

Because I’ve been running successful online businesses for many years, people always ask me how they can achieve a similar level of success. How can I build a high-traffic website? How can I make money online? What do I have to do to quit my day job? Will you mentor me?

These questions have always frustrated me.

The problem was that I couldn’t readily teach people to do what I do, at least not the way I do it. I’m too old school. I’ve been using the Internet since 1992, and I built my first income-generating website in late nineties. Most of the money I’ve earned in my life has come from my online businesses. But my approach has been virtually unteachable. Believe me — I’ve tried. After delivering a few workshops on blogging, it became obvious to me that I couldn’t teach this. I was overwhelming people with more info than they could handle. People got excited by the ideas, but they couldn’t implement them. In truth there’s just way too much hidden complexity in my approach.

Another frustrating element was watching people who were inspired by my articles “How to Make Money From Your Blog,” “How to Build a High-Traffic Website,” and “10 Reasons You Should Never Get a Job.” The first article even clearly states that 99 out of 100 people won’t be able to do this, but that didn’t stop people from trying to duplicate (or surpass) my results anyway. Nearly all of them gave up within the first six months. We’re talking hundreds of people that I know of. Starting a blog is dead simple these days. Creating a highly profitable, high-traffic website from scratch is very, very hard if you’ve never done it before.

All the Tools, Training, and Support You Need to Build Your Own Income-Generating Website

Site Build It! includes an extensive suite of tools to help you build a successful online business every step of the way, including:

  • domain name registration
  • web site hosting
  • point-and-click page creation
  • content management
  • blogging
  • market research
  • traffic stats
  • search engine optimization
  • auto-responders
  • form builder
  • graphic manager
  • customizable templates
  • sitemaps
  • RSS feeds
  • web mail
  • newsletter management

Seriously, this is only a small fraction of the tools they include. Many functions are completely automated, and some tools work for you in the background even when you aren’t aware of them. For example, if you update a page on your website, Site Build It! will automatically regenerate your Google and Yahoo sitemaps. If you don’t know what a sitemap is, with Site Build It! you don’t even need to worry about it. The technology will handle it for you. This means you can focus on creating content instead of worry about getting all the technical details right. Site Build It! will even suggest new topics you should write about to increase your traffic, based on its analysis of your current search traffic patterns.

Site Build It! provides unlimited customer support as well as private discussion forums where thousands of members share tips and advice. I browsed their forums myself and saw a lot of enthusiastic members helping each other. It’s an extremely active community with hundreds of thousands of posts. They also have a team of moderators and in-house editorial staff who glean the best pearls from their forums and turn them into articles — on everything from brainstorming to monetizing.

Their near weekly newsletter keeps you up to date on the current best practices as well as additions and updates to their “Info HQ” knowledge base. They track what’s happening in the world of e-business (over 100 feeds, blogs, e-zines), so you don’t have to. This makes it easy for you to focus on your business without worrying that you’re missing important opportunities.

Site Build It! is basically an all-in-one solution for building a successful online business. They continue to add new tools and refine their existing tools to keep the service state-of-the-art.

Getting Started

I encourage you to look into Site Build It! to see if it makes sense for you. I recommend you start with the Site Build It! home page, watch the 2-1/2 minute video there, and follow whichever links interest you. The 30-minute video tour is a must — it will really clarify everything for you. The video tour starts out mostly motivational in tone (i.e. benefits of working from home), but later on it dives into the details of how the tools and monetization strategies work, using real web sites as examples. I think you’ll find it educational even if you have only a minor interest in making money online.

If what you see arouses your interest, but you’re skeptical about what to expect, you’ll definitely want to read my step-by-step Site Build It! walkthrough next. I explain exactly what to expect during the first 10 days, from the time you sign up until your new money-making website is online. I wrote this walkthrough myself from scratch — it wasn’t provided by the Site Build It! team. I also offer some additional thoughts about who should consider Site Build It! and who shouldn’t.

If you really want to do your homework, I suggest checking out some of the success story videos submitted by their customers as well as their in-depth case studies. If you have any questions about Site Build It!, you can submit them via the questions form, and you’ll get an answer from a real Site Build It! owner/user.

Of course Site Build It! comes with a money-back guarantee, so there’s no risk to try it for yourself. You can test drive it for 30 days and get a full refund if you don’t like it. If you register a domain name through Site Build It!, you can even keep your new domain for free if you later decide to quit. That’s a better than money-back guarantee, since you get a free domain name no matter what. Also, if you decide to quit after 30 days, you can get a pro-rated refund for the unused portion of your subscription… and of course still keep your new domain name too.

Wall Decals

November 18, 2008

7 myths about wall decals

Myths about wall decals and surface graphics

Myth One
Myth:
Wall decals are stickers
Reality: No. A “true” wall decal is cut from vinyl. Vinyl is a synthetic material that appears like a thin plastic, but it is not plastic. A decal will have a backing paper and a low tack application tape on the front. It will be very thin so it appears hand painted. Vinyls are self adhesive, much thinner than a sticker, and are able to withstand heat which can be used to ensure it sticks properly to the surface. A sticker would just bubble, but vinyl likes the heat and will contour to the surface. Stickers are on a sheet, and you peel up the corner of the design and pull it off the backing paper and then stick onto another surface. Basically a sticker is a print onto paper which has adhesive. Sometimes this paper is glossy, sometimes it is plastic coated etc. They can be made of vinyl, but are much thicker and don’t look like they are hand painted. Generally stickers look cheaper and more temporary than a true decal.

Myth Two
Myth:
Decals are only for walls
Reality: No. In fact, decals are best applied to the hardest, flattest surface possible. They love drywall, glass, formica, painted wood, steel, plastic. Can be applied to painted plaster, (might require heat to assist in application), and absolutely does not work with stucco and brick surfaces. In reality, decals and surface graphics can be applied to any surfaces that you imagine as long as they fit with the above. Try applying decals to a ceiling! A floor! A fridge! A filing cabinet! A reception desk! Decals and surface graphics work on many surfaces.

Myth Three
Myth: Wall decals and surface graphics are as easy as PEEL AND STICK.
Reality: No. This is not true. Wall decals come with a backing paper and a low tack application tape. These are used to assist in applying the pre-spaced letters and designs to the surface. You need to follow the instructions, work slowly and often require two sets of hands to complete the application. However, once applied they are absolutely worth the effort!!!!

Myth Four
Myth: Surface graphics ruin the paint.
Reality: Mmmmm. Always a hard one when it comes to paint. If your paint is poorly applied or old, anything will ruin it, not just decals. Bubbling paint will lift simply by running your hand over it, so never mind having something stuck to it. We always recommend using heat to remove the decals or surface graphics. Heat will loosen the adhesive and make removing the vinyl a simpler task. If you paint was good to start with, it will survive having a surface graphic placed on it.

Myth Five
Myth: Decals can only be used inside.
Reality: Decals and surface graphics can be used inside and outside. The rule is that decals won’t stick to rough surfaces, so if you are trying to apply to a rough surface outside, no, it probably won’t stick. But, if you are sticking the decal to the outside of a garden shed, or applying the decal to an outdoor patio as a feature, then absolutely it work. Exposure to UV, rain and other environmental elements will be okay for the vinyl for up to 7 years (depending on the level of exposure).

Myth Six
Myth: Wall decals are reposition-able.
Reality: No. They are not. Many companies claim they are, but the fine print is they accept no responsibility if they don’t. Very convenient for those companies. You have already paid your money for something you think will restick and then it doesn’t. Decals are made of self adhesive vinyl. Good decals are made of ultra thin vinyl. So if you can imagine lifting a very thin sticker off a hard surface, it will most certainly be damaged where a) you have picked at the corner to lift it and b) where it stretches as it is lifted away from the hard surface. Plus, some of the adhesive is left on the surface, so the next time you apply the stretched, damaged decal, it won’t stick for very long.  When purchasing wall decals or surface graphics, think of it as a single application purchase and you won’t be disappointed.

Myth Seven
Myth:
Decals look like hand painted murals and designs on the surface.
Reality: Absolutely! Well-made, good quality decals are absolutely fantastic as a decorating item. Generally they are low cost and beat the price of someone hand painting or doing calligraphy on the wall. We regularly do comparison quotes against painters and our prices are a third if not a half of the competition.

Think of the ancient art of papercut. Now go modern.

   Vital Signs & Graphics has launched their latest range of vinyl cut designs.  Stylish and unique designs are created from pieces of self adhesive vinyl, and then applied to walls, glass, plastic, wood, metals and other smooth surfaces. Find More

10 Blogging Traffic Tips

September 17, 2008

10. Write at least five major “pillar” articles.

 

9. Write one new blog post per day minimum.

 
8. Use a proper domain name.

 

 
7. Start commenting on other blogs. Most blog commenting systems allow you to have your name/title linked to your blog when you leave a comment.

 
6. Trackback and link to other blogs in your blog posts. A trackback is sort of like a blog conversation. When you write a new article to your blog and it links or references another blogger’’s article you can do a trackback to their entry.

 

 
5. Encourage comments on your own blog. One of the most powerful ways to convince someone to become a loyal reader is to show there are other loyal readers already following your work.

 

 
4. Submit your latest pillar article to a blog carnival. A blog carnival is a post in a blog that summarizes a collection of articles from many different blogs on a specific topic.
 

3. Submit your blog to blogtopsites.com. To be honest this tip is not going to bring in a flood of new readers but it’’s so easy to do and only takes five minutes so it’’s worth the effort. Go to Blog Top Sites, find the appropriate category for your blog and submit it. You have to copy and paste a couple of lines of code on to your blog so you can rank and then sit back and watch the traffic come in. You will probably only get 1-10 incoming readers per day with this technique but over time it can build up as you climb the rankings. It all helps!

 
2. Submit your articles to EzineArticles.com. This is another tip that doesn”t bring in hundreds of new visitors immediately.

 
1. Write more pillar articles. Everything you do above will help you to find blog readers however all of the techniques.
