About Us
This site is owned by an older and experienced business man who understands accounting, banking, business, finance and responsibility.
The main reason for this site is to help younger people make money so they can support themselves and their family.
When you are young, most people do not value their time or money. To them everything is fun and NOW. As you get older you start to realize that family responsibilities (and especially children) do require you to become more dedicated to the stable requirements of financial independance. Eventually you will find yourself wishing you took more notice of earning and retaining funds earlier in your life.
The internet is actually a fun device to have and use. It was not available when we were younger so some of the things like writing web pages is something we leave to younger people as they adapt very quickly. This means that even if you are like us and do not have any ability to code/write pages you can still think and design layouts for a page. When you have some commercial experience it becomes much easier to visualize what you can do to make money.
Some people claim they made money overnight, hmm maybe. For most (including us), progress was much slower as it took some time to truely appreciate the way people really used the internet. Perhaps that might have been because I was slow to make purchases using our credit card (for fear of credit card fraud etc). Eventually we became less over cautious and ventured out with our credit card to make some small purchases and were surprised at just how easy it was to use and be part of the "new age".
Perhaps you will benefit to follow a similar steady path like we did -
- Secure a suitable Domain Name.
- Subscribe to suitable educational newsletters (you can learn a lot and they help you keep uptodate).
- Join Website-OwnersClub.com (because they have many helpful products).
- Design an uncluttered looking web site (this can be difficult as you have many things to promote).
- Learn about search engines (see steps 2 and 3 for assistance plus search engines).
- Be slow to just spend money on what appears to be interesting data (they are often repeated FREE).
- Be prepared to invest your personal time and grow gradually (Rome was not built in a day).
- Learn the legal requirements a web site requires refer GoLegally.com.
- Learn about the legal requirements of emails.
- Some preset templates can help design your early pages (and many are FREE).
- Set-up your first web site and become it's best customer/user. (What do you like and dislike?)
- Refine your website then look for better content.
- Start to develop a customer base - let people subscribe to a newsletter you produce.
- Make it easy for people who change their mind about your site so they can unsubscribe.
- Do not become a pest and email people too often - remember they have other things in their life.
- Good newsletter content keeps people interested in your web site - keep it fresh.
- Let people leave if they wish perhaps your site is not for them - their decision not yours.
- Do something every day to make your web site fresh and newsworthy - update weekly.
- Involve your family and friends whenever possible - and do listen to their ideas.
- Have fun and watch your income steadily increase.
Finally, item 19 needs to be repeated for the benefit of family harmony.
Respect the views of others and especially let them feel free to express their ideas otherwise they will get desperate and stop making their suggestions. We took everyones ideas and gave them a try - I found I was not always right - perhaps you will experience that others can be right (especially your spouse).
Let the internet be a source of family growth and not disharmony because "life is too short" to argue.
Remember to always help others because you benefit more than you might think.
Have fun and I wish you "even more success" than I am experiencing.
