Newbies guide to starting a Business Online

I wanted to do an update on my last post.  When I started this blog I was still very new to the game.  I'm a little more familiar with how to get started with your on home business.

I believe that Affiliate marketing is probably the easiest way to get started on making money.  It doesn't take a lot of money, and you can do it right from your computer.

I would they hardest part about it is just getting organized and understanding how the process works.  Not to mention the time it takes to find a good Affiliate companies to work with.  But thats why I'm here, and all the other great sources of information.

The first think you will want to do if you don't have one already is get yourself a Google account.
Google offers a wide range of useful products.  Google Webmaster puts all the tools you will need into one convenient location.  You will want to get familiar with Google Analytics, Google Ad words.

After you have created those accounts, you will probably need a place to to advertise your Affiliates products.
The easiest sources are social networks.  Google +, Facebook, Myspace, Google Blogger, Twitter etc.  My personal favorite is Google plus and Google Blogger.  It's the easiest to get people in your personal network.  Once you start using Google products you will start to realize that Google has developed their products for business's to market their products and get their name out their.  Google also even allows you too create your own web page for free.  I actually recommend that you purchase your own domain, it adds to your professionalism.  A good idea also when working with companies through the Internet is to keep yourself as transparent as possible.  People want to know who you are, hiding your identity is the quickest way to get turned down.

    Starting a business online

      On-line business: Where to start?


             That is a tough question, especially if your not even aware of all the options out their.  


             So far, here is what I figured out, besides it's a pain in the ass.  I found out that their is a lot of bs sites out their claiming you can earn money from home.  You need to watch out for them, most likely it's a scam.  
    Never pay for anything up front.

             You also don't want to quit your day job until you actually have a steady income started w/ your business.  If your new to on line business like I am, it's going to take a lot of time to get a full understanding of what the hell is going on.

             To actually be successful, your going to have to know a lot about everything.  Unless of course you have the money to pay other people to do it for you.  Which eventually is my goal.  Before I can pay other's to do it, I have to know how to do it.

           Here's what your going to need:  You will have to have a website, everything you do will evolve around the website.  Since your new I wouldn't actually recommend running out their and buying domains and hosting accounts.  There are free one's out there.  Get experience and a better understanding of what your doing before you start throwing your money away.

            The absolute best free hosting company I found is 2freehosting.com.  I was amazed at the amount of control they give you.  Not to mention the easy to use control panel.  They even give you your own email account.  Once you get more familiar with hosting and publishing websites, then you might want to think about getting a top level domain name.(.com)  There are all kinds of good deals out their, probably one of the more well known hosting company is GoDaddy.com!


            Now lets talk about actually working with and publishing websites.  A couple programs that I cannot live without are Dreamweaver, and Adobe Photoshop. Without those two programs, I would still be trying to post my site to the server.  They make it so much easier, Dreamweaver has a built in ftp client, so that makes it easier to add and remove files from the server.

             Google is your best friend, and I don't mean that just because it's a popular search engine.  I say that because of the products they let you use FOR FREE!!  A good example is Google docs, Microsoft charges you an arm and a leg and you still have to install it on your computer.  Google docs on the other hand is free and it's even easier to use.  Google also is primarily the main search engine that everyone uses these days.  So you want to make sure that the Googlebot isn't passing up your site.

    I will get more into Googlebots and webmasters in the next article.  Until then, thank you for you time and I hope you found something useful out of this blog.
