I am sure that when you first take that decision to build an online business working from home that the invitation to 'Build a Website in Five Days' is very tempting. But that sort of advertisement should come with a health warning of "Buyer Beware ?, particularly if you are new to internet marketing. If this is your first time at building a website that you need to know that it takes time to plan a website. Firstly you need to decide what it is that you want to promote, what the layout of the website will be and how many pages. If you don't understand html and all the technical jargon then you need to find a WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) tool for building your website. There a few of these providers around on the internet. If you need your web site for a home based business then you need to make sure that you have all the tools to fully automate your website, so that it can continue to work for you whilst you are asleep or on holiday. Of the most important tool is the subscriber form as you need people to sign up to your website so that you can build a list. Then you need to have tools to build your subscriber list, and an auto-responder. Without a doubt the auto-responder is a must, as this will send out your pre-written emails on the days you specify without you having to turn on your computer. If words like auto-responder leave you wondering what I am talking about then you really need to look for a programme that will explain all the technical jargon, like keywords, anchors, linking, meta tags etc. More importantly make sure that the explanations are written in a language that you can understand. There are many providers of templates on the internet, but check first particularly whether or not there is a built in subscriber form. Also check how much space you have available, will it be enough for your website and any additions you may want to make to it? So can you build a website in Five Days? If you have done the pre-planning, and have all the right tools available, in a language you understand, then it's possible! |
