The big lie about the Internet is that it's easy to make money. Just put up a website and everyone will come and buy what you offer and you can retire rich with no effort.
It's just not that easy. Anyone can put up a website in a few hours or days, but most of those sites die a slow death because of a lack of visitors and buyers.
However, it doesn't have to be that way. The key to a successful website is good quality content. People on the Internet are not searching for you, they're searching for information to help them solve a problem or accomplish a goal.
By providing that information in a format that is easily indexed by the search engines, those same search engines will send hundreds or thousands of visitors every month to your site for free. You don't have to keep advertising once you learn how to build a site that provides what people are searching for.
I learned about Ken Evoy when I first bought his ebook, Make Your Site Sell!. That was the best $17 I ever spent. He updated the book in 2002 to over 1500 pages of quality information and raised the price to $30. Now, the 2005 edition is very close to release and will be available at the link earlier in this paragraph.
Over the next four years, he and his team have built the best web design, website hosting, and website promotion service on the planet, and they sell this service for only about one dollar per day. I'm using Site Build It! to build A Year From Now and I'm seeing a steady increase in visitors every month, even though I won't go into full development on that site for another month.
I love the products that Ken sells, and I've arranged to give away -- free -- several of his ebooks, all of which are in Acrobat PDF format. If you go to the Free Ebooks category of the Downloads section, you can download any of the courses on that page at no charge.
The Net Auctions course sold for $30 just last year, and now it is offered free.
The SBI Action Guide is the first edition of the Site Build It! step-by-step guid to building a successful business on the Internet. This is not the current version, but Ken allows me to give this one away so you can learn about the process.
Even if you decide to go another way with your website, there is valuable information in all of these ebooks to help you be more successful with your online marketing efforts.
I'm happy to be able to offer them to you.
