Nice Tips!

A small business website can compromise in size but can’t compromise in efficiency. By following your tips one can create a small business website suitable for one’s needs.

I recommend using wix wesite builder.Wix is a low cost website builder that has been making a real splash amongst would-be entrepreneurs who find that creating a marketing website is easier than they ever imagined. There are approximately 200 readymade templates available to choose from while those with a more artistic frame of mind can start from scratch and build their own personal masterpiece.

The templates vary and can be categorized into Business, eCommerce, Real Estate, Music, Personal and many more niches besides. Initial loading takes just a few seconds and it is possible to create a website in minutes.

I will share your post on twitter.

Thanks a lot for sharing.

Agree with what you said, Sagar! I too believe that trust is the foundation of a successful online business. If your audience doesn’t trust you, then they won’t visit your site to buy your products and services. By showing them that you deserve their trust in different ways, then you can generate more profit to your site.

With scams and hacking hugely prevalent in this day, your company must appear competent and trustworthy. A great way to establish credibility is to have your basic information easily available to your customers.

Great points, K.R. I wouldn’t disagree with the arguments you’ve made. However, the point of the article is to establish some of the things that business owners often overlook in their business.

I mentioned choosing the right platform, for example, because you cannot run a business site if you are not comfortable with the platform you’re using or if the platform you chose has limited features. On the other hand, your online business site won’t succeed if you don’t have a motivated team that is willing to go beyond the distance of your beliefs and values.

The point I’m making (and perhaps a point that I ultimately failed to emphasize in the article) is that you need to build your website on ideal foundations.

Also, in my opinion, building traffic is not something that most business owners overlook in their website. Aside from the site you mentioned, you can also hop on to Nichehacks dot com to see actual blueprints on how to build a money making site. Therefore, information is not the problem here since there are lots of trustworthy resources out there.

I think most of their failure to generate traffic and revenue on their website is because they are not fully aware of the tools they’re using and the mindset they have when developing their online business. They want to build a successful, money-making site – they just don’t have the mindset to do it.

I think my comment is beyond the initial scope of the article. But I hope it answers any concerns you have about how I wrote it. Let me know what you think 🙂

Thanks for the comment, Ruby!

To be honest, you should go with a platform that will provide you the most benefits in the long run. I can’t speak for Blogger, but WordPress offers lots of customization options and plugins that are guaranteed to supercharge your business site. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a platform with this much support and features. Hope this helps.

Web hosting is rarely highlighted unlike content, social media, and other on-page variables of a business site, but it should not diminish its importance to your site performance. Having a fast-loading site with great uptime, both of which are characteristic of a great web host, allows you to connect better with your audience. There are many great hosting providers out there – Hostgator, SiteGround, Bluehost, etc. Just make sure to pick one that you’re most comfortable in using.

WordPress and these other alternatives are good choices as website building platforms that allows an average person to create a nice website free of charge. But…

Many, if not most, people who want a website really want a web BUSINESS –they want to make money with their site. Yet while putting up a site is easy (as the “cheap-quick-easy” marketing hype promises), knowing how to build an online business is another story.

Neither WordPress nor any of these other alternatives “as is” will build an online business which you get if you know how to do SEO and build traffic. They are all are missing a do-able start-to-finish BUSINESS process.

The reality is that most sites never get more than a handful of visitors. And without traffic, income is hard to come by. In other words, No traffic = No profits.

Surely, you can slog through the mountains of business building advice and tools that are out there. But for most WordPress users and those using these alternatives it all ends up being too much.

So, despite the dazzling display of WordPress/WordPress alternatives features (even SEO gadgets), the reality for most (non-tech) people who want to create a web business with WordPress or its alternatives is that they need to adhere to an easy-to-follow, all-in-one, proven, ethical webbusiness-building system (not a get rich quick scheme), tailored to say the WordPress platform, to get (1) a significant amount of traffic and get (2) targeted traffic (example of such a system: WealthPrinciples dot net).

Otherwise… you’ll end up having (and building) only a WordPress/Name of WordPress Alternative webSITE (or BLOG) but not a webBUSINESS.
