We use to read about this when we were in Secondary school.

You are a small business owner. You use the internet both in your business and personally. Obviously you know there are many, many web sites out there. More then likely, you've even made purchases through someone else's web site. Perhaps it is apparent that you could be doing the same thing with your own business. Certainly, extra e-commerce sales could only help your bottom line. But does your business really need a web site?

In deciding that, consider what a web site really is to a business. A well designed site can give your business exposure to a much larger group of potential customers. That makes it a powerful tool in your marketing arsenal.

In today's hyper-competitive business environment, marketing experts tell us that having a successful marketing strategy is essential to the growth of your business. Effective use of a web site can draw in new leads and turn leads into conversions. Now these new customers (your best market) can be further wooed through follow up online newsletters, automatic appreciation e-mails (auto-responders), special offers or any number of tactics. All the while building a mailing list which is like gold to anyone's marketing efforts. With this almost limitless and relatively inexpensive marketing tool in the form of your web site, your profits have an even greater ability to soar.

A web site does need to be well designed. Also, in addition to targeted, effective content, your site needs to be regularly maintained and updated. Using its full potential requires someone in your company continually coming up with new online marketing strategies. But these efforts, if thought of as marketing investments, can mean big rewards in the form of increased profits for your business.

In this information age, the internet is key to making innovative marketing decisions that build a successful business. Your competition knows this and he/she probably has a web site. If they are savvy enough to realize its marketing potential, then they have a competitive edge. But you can make up ground and pass them up with a well designed web site of your own.

Owning a small business in this day and age is becoming more difficult. The fact is that major franchises, chains and large stores are taking over the little guys out there. Everyday in every small town, people witness the little shops, stores and service providers slipping into the cracks and closing shop. This is sad, especially with all of the tools and resources available on the internet. Using the internet is just another method of advertising, a newer tool in the tool box that these small businesses can use to increase their annual revenue and remain open for business.

Not that the internet is a new tool, it’s simply not, but it is new to a lot small business owners out in the country struggling to stay alive. To many small business owners, computers and the internet are a scary and uncharted territory for them. These business owners have a false sense of cost and productivity that having a web presence can bring. Not only is it essential to have a website in today’s changing market, it is essential to have an ecommerce website that sells all of the products and services a business offers. Trends are leaning towards people using the internet as their own personal tool at home to look for the perfect car, house, mop, jewelry, anything really. Sitting at home and browsing is a lot less intrusive than going out in a car to the store, especially with the costs of gas going up, to find exactly what they are looking for.

Why not use this semi-new tool, the internet, to grow your business online and reach a much larger target audience for your products and services. Having an online presence is really not enough of a tool, if you provide either a service or good (merchandise) and it can be used world wide, then you need to present that to the world. You may just find as a small business owner, that providing vital information, services and goods to the larger online public is a very lucrative and smart business decision.

This would have been done since, I thought they have one. But paying to search isn't a pretty picture.

I agree with you, I want to add also just like any other business out their internet business requires valuable service, time, discipline, focus and determination.

Starting your own successful internet business is not a task to be taken lightly. If you are thinking of “getting rich quick”, perish the thought. An internet business is just like traditional businesses in many aspects. It will require intelligent planning, resourcefulness, and perseverance to carry it through.

You will want to ask yourself a few questions before you begin. What exactly to do you want to accomplish by starting your own internet business? Most people want to start a home-based business because of the perks it will offer. Most people dislike having to get up in the morning at set times to go to work. Most folks also have an aversion for their bosses, and just about everyone hates traffic jams. It’s no wonder that people want to get away from all that. Having a successful internet business is one way to avoid having to go to an office everyday. Note, however, that these benefits will only accrue to you once you have already succeeded. Before that you will have to work hard, perhaps even harder than you did on your day job. An online business is still a business, and it will call for determination on your part to make it work.

There are many ways to make money over the internet; there are many forms your online business can take. Basically, however, you will have to choose between marketing your own products and services and helping someone else sell theirs. In internet parlance, you can either choose to create your own affiliate program or join one. Either option is a good way to make money; but several factors have to be considered before you make your choice. Take note that starting your own affiliate program will require that you have your own product line, whereas simply being affiliate will not – you’ll simply sell pre-existing products and services. The creation of an affiliate program will also require a modest amount of money.

Online businesses, however, are not limited to affiliate programs alone. The internet also hosts a very active labor market, so if you are a specialist in some field, you probably won't find it too difficult to find a job. However, keep in mind that full-time positions over the internet are rare. On the other hand, freelance work is plentiful and often always available. Many sites act as middlemen for getting contractors and freelance service providers together; very few charge a fee. If you feel out of depth in starting your own business, using your professional skills might be a better option for you.

Creating a successful internet business will require intelligence, resourcefulness, and hard work. If you are the type of person who gives up easily, you shouldn’t bother – you’ll be wasting your time. But if you’re an individual who likes to rise up to the challenge, someone courageous enough to take charge of your own life, then by all means, give it a shot! You never know what you can do unless you try!

Not a pretty picture.

Blogs are becoming very popular. The rate at which the numbers are increasing is mind-boggling. Why is this happening? Why every body wants to create a blog? Who else will read that blog? If everyone is busy writing his/her blog why and when will they get time to search for other blogs and read them? Because of this over population and density, will blogging become another failure? Is it a fad, which will pass away? Let us examine?

Why do people blog? Most of the people write blogs to express themselves. They are sure that on their blog they will get what they want printed. If they write articles or columns for newspapers they may or may not get printed. Writing a blog gives the power to each of us to get printed immediately. I personally write my blog to express myself freely and feel good to see that what I wrote got printed immediately.

Another reason of writing in a blog and website is freedom of design, layout and structure. Blogging gives this freedom. It does not need navigation architecture designs of a website nor a structured menu. You write and get printed - as simple as that. This has a flip side also. In a website one can lay out the information in an easy to access and read format. You can lead your reader to a particular page in a website. You cannot do that on your blog.

Do blogs get read? How does one popularize one's blog? These are difficult questions to answer. For most of us, it is difficult to find time and submit our blog in the increasing number of directories. It is also difficult to make sure that our blog will get one of top rankings in a search. Only the search engines know the secret of that and others only speculate. If we try to read the articles written on this subject, not only the quantity but the difference of opinions will leave most of us tired, frustrated and undecided. One more issue- before you decide that you would want to popularize your blog, please think - whether you search for blogs and read them? A lot many of us are so busy writing our own blogs, that we find no time looking for others. Why should this not apply to our potential readers?

Whatever the pros and cons of blogging, one outcome is certain. Blogs give us the opportunity of writing what we want and get it printed.

Blog is the hot word on the internet in recent years, and with good reason: they are taking over the internet and information exchange as we know it. As you may or may not know, blog is short for web log. It is an online journal that can be about anything or anyone with topics ranging from personal reflection to political news to sports. Of what value is a blog to you, though? Family blogs are becoming increasingly popular because of the way they allow you as a family to keep up with members all over. You can keep members of your family that are located anywhere in the world up to date on happenings in your immediate family including births, deaths, and even marriages. In addition, a family blog is just a good way to get down the things that happen in the day to day life of your family. If you are considering a family blog, then there are some things you should probably pay attention to. Here are a few tips on how to maintain a good family blog.

The first thing to keep in mind with your family blog is safety. A blog may seem safe enough since it is nothing more than words on a web page, but keep a few things in mind. First of all, once you put something up on a blog, it becomes essentially public. Always remember that before you post anything anywhere on the internet, blogs included. Along those same lines, make sure you limit anything that may give readers a hint as to where you live specifically, or any personal information about your children or family in general. Keep addresses, phone numbers, and even email addresses off of the blog because you never know who is looking. Keep safety in mind first, and you are well on your way to a fun and successful family blogging experience.

Once you understand the safety needed with your family blog, you can start adding content. Your content doesn’t have to be anything in particular. Your blog is whatever you want it to be. Keep it updated regularly, though. The reason is that you want to keep those who you want reading the blog doing so with regularity. If you are not updating it regularly, they may stop checking in and that defeats the purpose of your family blog. You want to keep fresh news, ideas, and information that will keep your distant family members reading regularly and with interest. Also, you may want to have some sort of schedule. For instance, you always update on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. That way the readership knows when to check in for new news and information on your family. It will also keep you focused if you have some sort of schedule to go along with it.

Some blog applications include a board for readers to write messages to you or to discuss what is in your blog. If that is the case of the blog you are choosing, then you owe it to your readers to keep an eye on it. If they are posting questions or comments, make sure you are regularly acknowledging or addressing them. If you are working on a family blog, then many of these messages will be from family members that are located far away and so will be a good way to stay in contact with them. Even if they are not family members, your readers will have gained an interest in what you are reading so, with safety in mind, you should still acknowledge them and their questions and comments.

Blogs have become all the rage on the internet in recent years. If you want to get in on the craze, a family blog can be a fantastic way to do just that. A family blog is a great way to keep other family members and far away friends up to date on the happenings within your family as well as some of your personal thoughts and feelings on any number of things. However, there are a couple of tips you should keep in mind as you work on your family blog. Make sure that you are safe and smart with personal information, update regularly, and acknowledge responses to your family blog. Follow these simple tips and you should be able to fully enjoy your family blogging experience.

Imagine you have just built a fantastic professional website with your webdesigner. It looks good and quite enticing to people who may chance upon it. Why did I say ‘chance upon it’? Well, there are zillions of websites in this world and may be thousands of them in your field of business which you have just started with. Time is important and you cannot afford to lose your business even for one day. You have to pick up and get going. How do you make sure that you have a web presence fast? Here are some of the best ways to ensure that your success is concrete, not based on chance.

Search engine optimization: Search engine optimization (SEO) is really important for anyone who wants people to visit his or her website. You may have the best of the flashy ads and animations on your web pages but you will have people coming to your website only because of your listings and high rankings in search engines and directories. A person might enter a keyword in the search engine and then click on any of the first two pages of the search engine tools. So, if you want to have a powerful web presence, you have to get noticed and the only way this can be done is by ensuring that your pages get listed on the first couple of pages of the search engines.

There should be one phrase that should capture the soul of the webpage. This is also known as the target phrase. It will summarize on what the webpage is about. Your target phrase should contain specific and relevant information. Search engine optimization could go awry for you if you try to put words and phrases which is not congruent with the content of the page. If you overuse words like ‘sex’ and ‘love’, just because they are quite popular; your page will not be optimized to the best level possible. So it is better to stick to the proper keywords.

Your target phrase should be the ones that people normally associate with. For example, if you check website tools which check on the popularity of the target phrase, you will see that the word ‘help’ is more frequently used compared to ‘advice’. So the content which you write in some of your web pages should be keyword rich and they should be included in the title tags and Meta tags as well. In fact, a title tag for each of your web pages is the best way to optimize the search engine. This can be done by right-clicking anywhere on the webpage editing program page and selecting “Page Properties”. You can type in a tag which consists of around 60 characters inclusive of punctuation below the “Title.”

The title should contain a brief description of the page with a couple of keywords as well. Most of the web pages editing software now have the feature by which you can add the Meta tags easily. You have to right-click on the webpage and you get a box where you can add the three Meta tags namely “title”, “description” and “keywords.”

Affiliate Programs: This will ensure that you start making money on your website fast and easily. After having built the site with the help of the site builder and made the best use of SEO and keyword rich content, you can give a thought about affiliate programs. You add links to your site that will take the people to a page where they can buy the products or service of another company. It is all about making money by selling a product or selling which belongs to some one else without actually making an attempt to sell or market them. If the visitors make a purchase from that particular website, you earn a commission. Affiliate programs are free and though it sounds quite convincing to join a lot of affiliate programs, you can smartly choose the ones which sell products and service that matters to you. Give links to sites that provide stuff that is relevant to your website.

Position yourself correctly: You do not have to sell products and services, you have to share information. You have to make people buy what you are offering rather than stuffing your products and services down their throats. Your aim should be to create a hunger in their psyche to know more about you and click one more webpage of yours to know what else you have in store (no pun intended!). When you are selling them a site builder tool, educate them about the untapped areas of e-commerce and how they can save and earn a lot of money from e-commerce, how they can protect themselves from online frauds, and how they safeguard the private information on their computer. You are not only marketing your webpage effectively but in the same time, you are making your prospects learn new things as you create another area of potential business.

Write an expert article: Keep it a target to write a thought provoking informative and interesting article or two each week and submit it to the article directories. When they see your name and the link of your website, you will get fresh traffic and flow of people checking your website. You become more familiar (read famous) and soon you will find your article and your matter sneaking in other pages, where publishers will e-publish your articles on their ezines and websites. Most importantly your article should not look like you are selling something. Your article should be around 750-1200 pages with an interesting introduction.

Blog: Blog is also a fantastic information giving tool. You can subtly pass on information about your business through the blog. Again here don’t make it obvious that you are here to sell something. Make your blog interesting with humour, personal experiences and also information relevant to your line of business. Try to post your views and thoughts as much as possible so that lot of people, directories and search engines identify with your content easily.

The Customer Newsletter: Make it a point to personalize your relationship with your prospects and customer in a professional way. Most of the people who come across your mails in the inbox will have a tendency to delete them if they do not know you. They hate marketing gimmicks, so stay away from them. However make sure that you attract their attention with a winning and curiosity seeking title on the news-letter that you send. In the letter, make sure that you give them what you do best meaning information including handy tips and advice. A bonus or a small gift will also forge a strong relationship with your clientele.

So, you see apart from making a good site with the help of a webdesigner, you should have the foresight to spread the word of your business through the best practical and information sharing means. Knowledge and sharing what you know is truly the power and key to all riches!
