Can I build a website?
That's a question I often get asked, and the answer is always YES!
Never before has building a website been easier. But it all comes down to what type of website you want to build and why you want to build it...
You see nowadays there are a ton of easy website builders out there.
You don't really need to be very technical or consider yourself a "website designer" in order to build a professional looking site.
But, there's one big problem no one is talking about...
Anyone can build a website, yes, but not anyone can get traffic to it. The truth is you need more than just a pretty site to make it on the net.
I've built many websites using programs like Front Page and also several site builders. The problem with these tools is that they don't give you any grounding or education in marketing and online business. It's not good enough to just "build a site" -- anyone can do that.
You need a website that will bring you traffic (free traffic) that is highly targeted. That means that when your visitors come to your site, they aren't there by accident but instead they're looking for the information you have to offer and are a perfect fit for your website.
If you provide valuable content, then both the search engines (the people who bring you the traffic in the first place) and your visitors will be happy and the result is pre-sold traffic that then responds very well to what you want them to do...
Whether it's buy your products, contact your office to make an appointment or click on your ads, pre-sold visitors that are happy with the information you've just provided them are more likely to stay on your website and take the action you want them to.
To help you achieve that, I've put together a detailed review of my favorite website building platform here. It delves into all the options available for building an online business.
