Right now we use five different servers, comparing each one to see how it performs, when one fails to perform correctly we cut it loose and then we hire another hosting provider.

When you have tons of websites to host you cannot just use any kind of hosting you need to divest into several different providers that way your never left high and dry as the old saying goes.

 One of the most important things you can do for your business is to manage your hosting never let you hosting manage you…

When we evaluate a hosting company, the first thing that we do is to content them and ask a question, Does not matter what the question is but its a good idea to make it a good one.

Once we do that we sit back and see how long it takes them to answer that question, one day, ok, sure not too bad, but if it takes like three days, were probably not going to be a customer of this company.

Again we want to know how long it would take if we really needed help.

We want to know if there is someone there that can actually answer the question in an intelligent way. We want to know what we can expect to get from this company if we choose them, because there are hundreds of companies out there and we do not want to deal with incompetence.

Creating, the best environment for your websites is not just a passing fad it is what good business people do to make it work right every time.

Why pay high prices for average services, if your going to pay for a good service make sure your getting what you pay for.

There are some issues you might want to have a close look at when you first start thinking about developing a working relationship with an outsourcing partner.

1. Communication is the best method you have to be able to create great gigs.

2. Find multiple methods of communication.

3. Make sure they understand what you “really” want.

Watch out for the middle man, If you have been involved in marketing or even buying products retail and wholesale products always have a middle man, it is a concept that is at the heart of what we have come to realize is how the world economy works.

there are an abundance of apps from A to Z in terms of doing just about
anything you can imagine from turning on and starting your car, to adjusting
the heat or cooling at your home while you are at work.

Many small business locations are interested in having an app or a mobile website
but what goes into creating a mobile website?

It is more than just about the size of the webpage…

The size of the webpage is just one aspect you also need to consider how much
data you can logically transport from your website to the mobile device, and not
all mobile devices are the same some take forever to load a webpage, and if your
webpage is a large one, then likely users will navigate away quickly.

It is really not that difficult to do, from a design standpoint, however the real
consideration is one that you may not be aware of, popular is good, but will it
bring you new business?

Will it fill your store up with buyers overnight?

Probably not, and that would be the incorrect way to look at website or webpage marketing.

The best way to think about using the internet to help develop your business is to think of
your website as an interactive bill board where people can learn about your business and
find out what services you offer and even make purchases from you.

If you get just one more customer over a period of time per month or even less and your
website will have done its job.

That is the key getting one more customer at a time.

A lot of people get this idea that they will get rich as soon as they put up a website, but that
is really the wrong way to look at it, and the same goes for mobile marketing.

It may become the next great thing, but the truth is that even if you do not have a mobile website.
Mobile users can still come to your website and view it.

So the bottom line here is that you really do not have to do much to reach out to the mobile market,
what is really important is that if you have no website at all, you will never reach anyone.

When it comes to your website, extra attention should be paid to every minute detail to make sure it performs optimally to serve its purpose.

Here are some important rules of thumb to observe to make sure your website performs well.

1) Do not use splash pages

Splash pages are the first pages you see when you arrive at a website. They normally have a very beautiful image with words like “welcome” or “click here to enter”. In fact, they are just that — pretty vases with no real purpose. Do not let your visitors have a reason to click on the “back” button! Give them the value of your site up front without the splash page.

2) Do not use excessive banner advertisements

Even the least net savvy people have trained themselves to ignore banner advertisements so you will be wasting valuable website real estate. Instead, provide valuable content and weave relevant affiliate links into your content, let your visitors feel like they want to buy instead of being pushed into buying.

3) Have a simple and easy to understand navigation system

You want to provide a simple and very straightforward navigation menu so that even a young child will know how to use it. Stay away from complicated Flash based menus or multi-tiered dropdown menus.

If your visitors don’t know how to navigate, they will leave your site.

4) Have a clear indication of where the user is

When visitors are deeply engrossed in browsing your site, you will want to make sure they know which part of the site they are in at that moment. That way, they will be able to browse relevant information or navigate to any section of the site easily. Don’t confuse your visitors because confusion means “abandon ship”!

5) Avoid using audio on your site

If your visitor is going to stay a long time at your site, reading your content, you will want to make sure they’re not annoyed by some audio looping on and on on your website. If you insist on adding audio, make sure they have some control over it — volume or muting controls would work fine.

6) update your website on a regular basis.

After a while the same old same old gets boring, so spice things up make a few changes, develop different types of content.

7) Keep your advertising down to a minimum.
I know it may be popular to advertise, advertise and advertise some more, but all in all the search engines dont really like to see a lot of advertising on a website simply because they know that a website visitor really wants to do one of a few things, they usually are after information.

You can develop your own content and most of the time it will be better than anything you can buy online.

This is a topic for debate, you will find many different opinions on many different web- sites online, some will tell you that you need to include robot text files, meta tags, and special search engine tactics to get your website listed on search engines.

The simple truth behind designing a successful web page is to create informative and compelling content in the form of information that is fresh and original.

“what if I don’t know how to write good articles” This is one of the most often asked questions, for new owners of websites online.

The secret to writing good articles is really simple just imagine that you are talking to a new customer and they are asking questions about your business.

Writing an informative article in a personable way is really not that difficult.

Ask yourself a few basic questions, you hear them everyday when talking about your business, just imagine you have a new customer and answer their questions in an easy to understand way, by writing this down you have a start to writing a good article.

Recently there has been a trend that was created for this basic website need.

Fresh Content and articles for free using a software tool, what this does is basically use a search and replace syntax to change content to make it appear to be unique, the truth is that this creates more problems than it solves, while researching this software I found several article farms, that recycles content.Basically you have this software that clones content and this is supposed to create unique content, what it really does is put your website out of business and out of the search engine spotlight.

Why you ask?

Simple, poor quality content and duplicate content is a (NO! NO!) and if you do this your website will suffer a slow and agonizing slid into the darkness of cyberspace.

There is no easy and painless way to become successful in operating a website. The truth is that in order to succeed you need to put a little effort into your work. No one makes a living for doing nothing. Effort is what separates success from failure.

Running a business is no different. You get what you pay for and you cant get something for nothing.

Ok I get it, but I am not a Pulitzer prize winner.

NO problem, neither are most of the writers online. You don’t have to be an expert writer to communicate with your visitor online. one of the best rules to follow, is to allow your work to flow with a conversational tone. You talk to people everyday in your work, your job and you life experience. Chances are you have a unique outlook that you can share with your visitor or client.

What if I don’t have time to create this content.

There are several alternatives, if you just don’t have time you can hire some one to do it for you.

This can be expensive, and again you get what you pay for, you can find several places that feature writers that will sell you articles for online publication.

The problem with this is that what you are getting is recycled content that is changed up a little to make it appear to be a unique article, what happens is that these people will sell you the same content that everyone else already is using online.

This does not work well for your success for many reasons.

The content may not be very good, and in fact is usually not good at all, with inconsis- tent information and poor grammatical placement, most of all it is not personable.

The best way to create good content is still by the DIY approach.

DIY (Do it Yourself)

This method remains the most effective way to create content.

Lets get back to the main question, no time!

Well you can look at it this way, we all have 24 hours in a day.

How you use that time is directly under your control, imagine what would happen if you decided to not watch TV for one afternoon, what could you do with that time.

For instance lets say that you take as little as 20 minutes of time you would have spent watching commercials on TV, not much to give up if you ask me.

So now you have 20 minutes you turn into an article, even if you don’t finish the article in this time you can always keep working on it until you get something new and interest- ing.

So what if it takes a couple of days to finish it, imagine what you could do by spending just 20 minutes each day writing a letter to your customers.

Tell them about your new product or service, pass along a tip you learned that saved you money or time in preparing a meal, any subject is great, but try to pick something that you believe in and are passionate about.

Create a little time to work on your website, watch less TV, take a few minutes out of your schedule and create something with your extra time.

You know that there is a learning curve in getting up to speed when you first begin to consider a website
business.

If you were to decide today to start a website would you know where to get started? You need three things in order to have a website.

1. A domain name
2. A web hosting account.
3. Website files. Most Web design companies will not tell you the following information.

We feel that giving our customers the knowledge they need to make the right decisions is the right thing to do. Often many companies withhold this basic information as a method of making more money.

Example, buying a domain name ranges from $35.00 per year to $8.00 per year, yet there are many companies that will charge you the higher end of that range instead of the lower range, knowing that you can buy your domain name for less than ten dollars a year is part of the way we do business, we provide our customers with the information they need to save money. We feel that it is more important to provide this knowledge than to make a few extra dollars in profit.

To get started, you need website space, bandwidth and a domain name and you are ready to begin. Visit our learning center for more.. Selecting a Hosting provider.

A $4.95 cent website, do you think that you will make any money from a junk website like that?

Probably not, but it is interesting to see how many people sign up for these build a website services thinking they will get rich.

The truth is that it takes effort and it takes a little work to get the job done better than the thousands of others out there.

Why were websites so bad back then?

Knowledge. Few people knew how to build a good website back then, before authorities like Jakob Nielsen starting evangelizing their studies of web user behavior.

Difficulty.

In those days, there weren’t abundant software and templates that could produce a visually pleasing, easy-to-use website in 10 minutes. Instead, you either hand-coded your site in Notepad or used FrontPage.

Splash Pages

Sometime around 1998, websites all over the internet discovered Flash, the software that allowed for easy animation of images on a website. Suddenly you could no longer visit half the pages on the web without sitting through at least thirty seconds of a logo revolving, glinting, sliding, or bouncing across the screen.

More than that though you can actually make money from this process.

If you thought that selling your own products and services was the only way to monetize your WordPress website then you are in for a treat and since it is getting close to that time of year you might be interested in learning a little more about this subject.

There are many ways to monetize your site and add extra income streams that will effectively make you money while you sleep!  WordPress makes it very easy to monetize your website just by installing a few appropriate plugins. It’s so easy that you could get set up in less than 10 minutes.

The simplest way to monetize a WordPress website is to add an advertising plugin such as Ad Squares Widget which allows you to place affiliate banners in your sidebar or anywhere else on your template which allows widgets. Make sure that the banners you choose to appear on your website are complimentary to the existing content of your website and something that your target market would be interested in buying.  Once you’ve had your banners up for at least a month, it’s a good idea to work out which affiliate banners are bringing in the most cash from your website.  Many website owners stick with the same banners all the time, even although they don’t attract any clicks and purchases, be smart about it and only have banners that are actually giving you an extra income.

Many internet marketers choose to also install a Google Adsense plugin so that their ads are specific to each pages content.  There are many different places within your website that you can place these blocks including the header, before and after content and within the sidebar, however you are only allowed a maximum of three ad blocks per page.  When setting up your adsense channels track which ads are giving you the most revenue, change the size and placement of ads to find the combination that gives you the maximum income possible for your website.

Pay per view is another option for monetizing your website.  There are several plugins that will allow your visitor to view a limited amount of a blog post and in order to read more, they need to pay a small fee.  You can also use the pay per view method for videos as well, this works well if you have created a training website with many how to videos or content posts.

A step up from the pay per view model is the membership site.  These are becoming more and more popular with website owners.  If creating fresh monthly content puts you off then you can create a one time payment membership site, with no pressure to add regular fresh content. There are many different membership models to suit every business within every niche that you can copy if you decide to monetize your website by creating a membership site.

These are just a few ways that you can monetize your WordPress website, implement these ideas today and you could be profiting from them in no time at all.
