The Best Resources for Putting You Ahead

There are several steps involved in starting your online business, or even improving it. Getting financing if you need it, building a website, hosting your website, getting a domain name(you may want to put this step first)submitting to search engines and other means of promotion, setting up your own affiliate program to help sell your products. Neil Shearing's Internet Success Blueprint is a good resource for learning how to have a successful business online by selling your own info. product or ebook, which is the most profitable product you can sell because there are no reproduction costs. Neil's book walks you through the entire process. This ebook can really put you in the same league as the internet experts, I highly recommend it, click here to read my review.

The best software I know of for promoting your site like a professional (which Neil highly recommends as the best thing you can get for a multitude of tasks), is a seriously helpful tool called SiteBuildIt! developed by Ken Evoy, it does everything (except write the material for your site) for you so you can focus on creating the best content for your site. Basically this software helps you easily build the best site, optimize it with search engines, submits it and resubmits it when necessary, but without spamming the engines, and does it according to the rules of each engine, it also includes traffic reports, and other very useful reports to help your site be number one, you also choose a domain and it is hosted for a year. I read about this and was really amazed at all the fearures it offered, you really should take a look at this yourself, I suggest looking at the slide show (there are different presentations at the bottom of the page) because you can see what it would look like through the different steps.

For example, Corey Rudl's Internet Marketing Center can provide you with some excellent insider tips and tricks to get you well on your way to success. Click here to see an interview with Corey Rudl. If you want a huge, thorough course, ScamFreeZone's Neil Shearing tried Corey Rudl's "Insider Secrets to Marketing Your Business Online" course. Although he disapproved of methods in 2 particlular sections, he was very pleased with the rest of Corey's package, discovered "mind-blowing information on internet secrets" he'd never heard of and even dramatically increased traffic to his site after applying information from only one chapter.

He is reselling it for less at his site. WebPostitionGold submits your site to search engines as well, but Corey recommends it for monitoring and maintainging your site's ranking.

If a premium, reliable hosting service is what you need, Corey Rudl, Jim Daniels, and Neil Shearing are a few top internet marketers which agree that Virtualis (now adgrafix) is the best. If you have or want to have a business, free hosting can cost you, Jim Daniels once used a free hosting service and it turned out to be a mistake he would not again repeat, unfortunately it's the same way for cheap services, in this world you often get what you pay for. I have experience with this myself. Right now I'm using homestead because I can't afford a premium service, and I can't transfer my sites either, so I'm basically dealing with it. Free and cheap services are much more likely to be pretty bad, sometimes I can't even edit my site! If you go to the community center and look at the threads in the member to member assistance board, you'll see a long list of complaints! So if you can afford it, do yourself a huge favor and go with a good hosting service. Your online business can be very successful if you know what pitfalls to avoid, and what to do to make it work. It's a real good idea to learn from those who have been through everything and have come out successful.
