Are you like me? Beginning to Build your First Business Website?
If you give me 3 minutes to read this article I'll help you to find a really practical solution...
I knew what I wanted to do I just didn't know how to do it! I had spent years managing just about everything in my business - people, programs and products were my bread and butter. What I hadn't done was translated all this onto the web. I'd been burnt before by web designers who charged a fortune just to produce a few pages and I felt as though I was about to land on Mars when ...
A friend of mine, a very good friend, introduced me to a company that really is different in the way they approach "all things web".
I can't say I got there first time. The first thing I did was sign up for a hosting package from a company that you would have heard of as they advertise everywhere. Oh sure they had website building tools and a few other nifty tools but I still felt as though I was floundering around trying to figure out how I got all these great ideas and business practices onto the web.
My challenges were these:
I didn't have the knowledge of web stuff to even know what I didn't know!
I was "off-line" smart and "on-line" dumb!
I didn't have a huge amount of capital to throw at this and I certainly didn't have money to throw away.
I had other things I just had to get done and not a whole lot of time.
I needed someone to "hold my hand".
What did I discover? Well my friend introduced me to Ken Evoy's Site Build It programme and I did a bit of research and found that here was all that I needed to BEGIN!
These are what I would call the strong points about SBI
Firstly, there is a 10 day (10 session guide) to getting started. This isn't for the faint hearted as if you are like me with little knowledge at all it took a little time to become familiar with the terminology but it was worth the effort.
Secondly, I discovered a whole lot of new friends in the forum area of the website where I could ask questions and see answers to many topics that I was confused about.
Thirdly, as someone with no HTML skills at all I needed help to build the site and wow did help come in the shape of their site building tools - It is amazing! You can build your pages so quickly with their system. Want a form - no problem the form builder does it. Want to launch your own ezine - again no problem the tool is there. Want to create a customised page rather than just use the template - not a problem you can use their graphics store and upload whatever it is you need.
Fourthly, they will answer your questions quickly and fairly (what I mean by fairly is they will answer stuff that they are experts at but not areas where we have to find stuff for ourselves)
Fifthly, the cost of the first year was a fraction of the cost I was paying web designers and web masters.
Well I think I've told you enough for now so why not click on this link and let Ken Envoy show you the ropes. One last thing - one of their mantras is "Don't get rich quick" They want to do it right and you (and me) need to be patient to follow the step by step approach.
I hope this article has been a help to you. So click here to find out more of how I climbed what seemed a huge mountain to get "on line" [please contact me for website address] This will take you directly to Site Build It's home page.
If you want to go to something that is even more comprehensive and a logical step by step approach then try this one instead - [please contact me for website address]
I hope it works out as well for you as it did for me!
