How I Built This Site
How I Built This Site
(...and how you
can,
too)
To be perfectly honest, building this website was one of the most
challenging things I think I've ever done, and that's really saying
something, coming from a guy who has a masters in engineering.
But
the good news is there's LOTS of help in the various
action guides, videos, help articles, and the very gracious SBI! owners
in the forums, who actively practice "help and be helped."
At any given moment, there are usually between 25-50 people
online in the forums from all over the world; and
with the thousands of help topics and hundreds of thousands of posts,
the SBI! forums are arguably the world's best e-business
forums.
If you're looking for a good solution for an online business,
I seriously doubt there are any better ones for the price, which is
less than a dollar a day. Since 1997, SiteSell.com has helped hundreds
of thousands of regular people build e-businesses
that outperform larger competitors.
The
best thing is this system is
all-inclusive.....website building, hosting, keyword research,
domain registration, getting listed & ranked at the search
engines, automatic site blogging, 24/7 support, monetization tips, etc.
And another good thing is if it doesn't work out, you get
your
money back,
no questions asked (pls. see my note at the bottom
of the page).
Although I've found this whole process a little difficult, I've enjoyed
the education immensely. I'd liken it to getting a
masters degree in online marketing. Even though my original
personal website was already over 12 years old when I bought
my SBI!
package, I've learned more in the past year about structuring a webpage
properly for effective search engine optimization,
finding profitable keywords, how to attract
traffic, and how
to make money with your site than I did in ALL of those previous 12
years.
I've even cut some teeth in learning a little CSS.
If you'd like more info, I suggest you view some of the videos below
(watch founder Dr. Evoy's 3-minute video first), read a few of
the
testimonials I've selected, and review the various key features
& benefits of the SBI! system. I think one of the most
impressive pages I've ever seen on the SBI! website is the listing of hundreds of successful
SBI! owners whose sites are all ranked among the Top 1% of
ALL webpages (Remember, I said HUNDREDS, so please be patient, as the
page takes forever to load.)
I believe my favorite SBI! success story is about a German lady named B
(short for Birgit --yes, "i" before "r") who got dumped by her
boyfriend, moved to Australia, and started a travel site about
the Australian Outback (her testimonial is below). Her various sites
now earn her several thousand
dollars a month.
Oh yeah, I'd be remiss not to mention that SBI! is the only private
sector e-business product that is now taught at over 30 colleges
&
universities, including the Univ. of Arizona, Penn State, and The
Citadel.
Thanks so much for visiting. Enjoy !!
Cheers,
Gary
Testimonials
from Satisfied SBI!
Customers
Here are some short testimonials from real SBI!
customers whose lives have been changed by Site Build It!:
"My goal was to build an online business that
would generate an income equal (or greater, of course) to the salary I
was earning. And also wouldn't be dependant on any country's economy
(as my country's economy is in shambles...)."
~ Elad Shippony

"It's been over a year now since I started my first website, which
ranks within the top 1% of sites on the net and receives up to 1500
visitors per day. I now have a second site, and plans for a third
before the summer of this year. I no longer work from home in the
evenings and my income is constantly growing. Right now, it's double
what I was making when I was standing behind a chair."
~ Michelle Schill

"I was skeptical that I could get the visual feel
that I wanted with a template-based builder. Little did I realize that
SBI does not limit you to templates -- I had the option to "start from
scratch" to create my own Web page elements for a truly one-of-a-kind
look. I took the plunge -- "jumped in with both feet", as you say --
and as you can see, I used the SBI builder to make a beautiful site. I
was surprisingly impressed with the flexibility of the builder."
~ Marney Makridakis

"What can I say? Life has never been better.
Freedom is something that can't be paid for. It's not that I work less,
I probably work more than I ever did, but I do it on my own terms. It
doesn't feel like work at all.I am confident that I will never have to
work for others again unless I want to!"
~ B. Bradtke

"Site Build It! changed my life. I know this
sounds like a "cliche", even corny to some, but it is perfectly true. I
now devote all my time at being happy and productive, with my wife,
close by my side, making her own dreams come true. As we sail in the
sunset ... it keeps receding, while remaining just as breathtaking. I
am 61 years young, and having the time of my life!"
~Claude Jollet

"Now, I am a home schooling father of five,
building a real business from home. SBI! gives me a global reach from
my little town.

Key Features & Benefits
of the SBI! System
Intro
SBI! makes online business
success do-able. Anyone can succeed with an all-in-one process, tools,
and guidance.
You get more than just a "site builder." You don't need to worry about
looking for separate hosting, paying for a separate keyword research
tool, handling site submissions, integrating autoresponders, etc., etc.
See the full list of features here
-- pick the most relevant ones for you and your reader.
Niche Research
Too many non-SBI! sites start without profits
being "built into" the process from DAY 1. It all begins with the right
process. Content
Traffic
PREsell
Monetize is the underlying, logical and
powerful process that capitalizes upon the fundamental realities of how
people use the Web. C
T
P
M puts you on a solid, profitable business foundation.
Brainstorm It! is SBI!'s powerful keyword brainstorming and research
tool. It helps you verify that your site concept has acceptable profit
potential. SBIers are saved from making that common fatal error. With
Brainstorm It!'s help, they know they are on track, right from the
start. Brainstorm It! also helps you to find topics related to your
niche that will pull in traffic and generate income.
Site Building
Page creation is as simple as riding a bike with
its training wheels still attached. No need to know HTML. The
block-by-block builder trains you how to write a page that is both
"Search Engine and human effective." It's simple, do-able and most
importantly, effective site-building. The
block-by-block builder is perfect for beginners, but even many
"advanced" users should start with this tool. It's an excellent way to
break bad habits!
Since SBI! is compatible with popular HTML editors (ex., Dreamweaver)
and image tools (ex., Photoshop, Flash, etc.), you can easily use
advanced page-building techniques, if you like. This allows for maximum
creative flexibility for all skill levels.
When it's time to create your site's Look & Feel, SBI! provides
fully customizable, easy-to-use templates. You can choose and create a
professional-looking presentation, even if you have no design skills.
And if you're a designer, you can create and upload your own. This page shows a range of styles.
SBI! includes domain name analysis, optimization, and registration. You
will develop the best name for maximum profitability in your niche.
(It's often different than what you had planned.)
Fast, reliable, state-of-the-Net Web site hosting is all included with
SBI!. You don't have to worry about choosing the right "hosting"
features (size, capacity, etc.). Web hosting is included, no nonsense,
no hidden clauses.
Content 2.0 allows your site's visitors to create
content for you. Turn
any page on your site into an invitation for your visitors to add
content. C2 then allows other visitors to comment and rate the page
much like on a blog. This means your site will have more Search Engine
attractive pages. Having more site pages means the Search Engines will
rank your pages higher and that leads to more traffic. A chain of
events that simply started through the contributions of your visitors!
Search Engines
& Traffic Building
To announce your site to Search Engines, you need
to submit a specialized file called a "Sitemap XML" file. SBI! does it
all automatically, a huge time saver, that enables you to quickly
achieve wider distribution and attract more targeted free traffic.
Search Engine spider/listing/ranking reports let you see how your pages
are being handled by the Search Engines. You can see what pages rank
best and drive traffic. Each report's insights help you to determine
how to increase traffic and monetization. Most pros don't have easy and
reliable access to this type of information.
Traffic Stats and Click Analysis help you understand what your visitors
like most. Understanding them helps you know what to write about, which
in turn leads to more and more business.
PREselling
SBI! includes an easy-to-use form builder with
autoresponders. You can build contact forms, surveys, and polls to
easily communicate with your visitors. You don't need to use your
e-mail address, which attracts spam. Experienced users will appreciate
no longer needing separate form-building tools. Having these tools all
in one place saves time and expense, too.
List-building and e-mail marketing are included (usually these
expensive features are bought separately). Sign up visitors to your
e-zine subscription list and then mail an issue to them. This repeat
exposure builds a stronger bond with your visitors and allows for
direct promotions to them. Deeper PREselling = More Monetization.
Automatic site blogging turns your site into a blog easily. You'll
enjoy all the benefits of a blog without needing extra skills or
additional software. For those experienced with blogging, auto-pinging
for your SBI! blog keeps your site on the Search Engines' radar. All of
this helps attract more traffic.
SBI! Community
The SBI! private forums provide friendly, helpful support from other
Site Build It! users. Help is available from folks who are in the same
place as you. This peer-to-peer support gets you over the humps along
the way in a stress-free environment. Help is available even for
advanced questions. The forums are a business-building support
community ready to help you succeed.
SiteSell.com was established by Dr. Ken Evoy in 1997. His series of
books have helped hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurs and small
businesses. Make Your Content PREsell!
and Make Your Words Sell!,
formerly books sold by SiteSell, are now free. They are literally the
dynamic duo of "Web-writing."
No Risk
SBI! has a no-risk, 90-day money back guarantee. SiteSell.com
will refund you 100% within the first 90 days of purchase, and on a
pro-rata basis anytime after that. SiteSell has never refused a refund.
Check out their track record at the Montreal chapter of the Better
Business Bureau by calling +1-514-905-3893. You'll
find that their record is spotless.
