Now There's No Reason

You Can't Have Your Own Website

For several years, I wanted my own website. I tried to get started, but each time, I got discouraged and quit. Then I had a breakthrough. I discovered the tools I used to create this site. Looking back, I'm amazed at how much I learned and how far I've come in a very short time. I'm no technical wiz, so if I can do it, you can too!

What Do You Want to Do?

You CAN build your own website. But the more important question is WHY? What motivates you? What's your goal?

  • Do you have a ministry that you want to share?
  • Do you have a message you want to communicate?
  • Do you want to start a home business online to suppliment your income?

All of these goals are achievable, but not without some effort on your part. Yet, you definitely can do it. And I'm not talking about spending 1,000s of hours, quitting your job, or doing anything crazy. I've developed this site on nights and weekends while handling a challenging, full-time job. Setting up this site has been enjoyable, and a positive change of pace. In the process I have acquired valuable new skills that have already helped me in my regular job. You can do the same thing--acquire useful skills, learn a ton, and develop a site you'll be proud with less effort than you probably imagine.

My Top Ten List of Website Building

I'm stunned, and a little embarrassed, at the misconceptions I had about building a website just a few months ago. I now realize I didn't get started on my own site sooner because I believed some things that just were not true. Maybe you're getting stumped by some of these things. If so, I can help. Just for fun, I developed this Top Ten list of false beliefs about website. See how many of these have stumped you like they did me.

John Kramp's Top Ten List of False Things People Believe

That Keep Them From Launching An Effective Website

False Belief Number 10: A catchy name (URL) is the key to a successful site that makes lots of money.

    The Truth: Some sites with very high traffic have really boring names.

False Belief Number 9: Successful sites must be created by a professional graphic designer.

    The Truth: Some of the most successful sites use incredibly simply designs that anyone can do using a few simple tools.

False Belief Number 8: A catchy name plus a a fancy website equals a successful site.

    The Truth: The Internet is choking on fancy sites with catchy names that get next-to-no traffic.

False Belief Number 7: To have my own website, I need to learn HTML.

    The Truth: Most of us will never learn HTML and, fortunately, don't need to. There are programs and tools that do this work for you so you can focus your attention on more important matters.

False Belief Number 6: You must choose just the right web hosting company to be successful.

    The Truth: Of course, it is important to have a reputable web host for your site, but it's easier than you think to find one. The tools I discovered made this process so simple I couldn't believe it.

False Belief Number 5: It is not necessary to understand the "key words" people use to search the Internet.

    The Truth: Most people find what they are looking for online by searching on specfic terms. If you don't know the terms people use, you may end up with no traffic on your site.

False Belief Number 4: You don't need to know anything about search engines to be successful.

    The Truth: Most people will find your site through the search engines. They all work differently and there are certain things you must do to increase the chance that your site will appear near the top of top of the list. Understanding search engines is both art and science. Fortunetely, the tool that I use makes it possible for non-technical people like me to optimize my site for outstanding results on various search engines.

False Belief Number 3: You need to hire a consultant or purchase lots of books by Internet experts to help you build your site.

    The Truth: Seperating the experts and the charlatans on the Internet and in bookstores is challenging. You can spend lots of money purchasing information that, in the end, is worth little or nothing.The tool I discovered was a breakthrough for me. As part of the package, I received expert advice in simple, easy-to-understand language. It guided me step-by-step through the entire process.If I had found this tool earlier, I could have saved lots of money.

False Belief Number 2: It's easy to set up a website and make money. You should quit your job and focus on your site to start the money rolling in.

    The Truth: I have seen this kind of claim, and, franklin, it makes me mad. It's an outright lie. Doing anything in life requires time and energy. Forget the idea of "easy money" to be made online . . . unless you are a scam artist. The good news, is that you can get started online with a financial investment of less than $500. You can build your own website. If you use the tool I recommend, you can make money. But you definitely should not quit your "day job."

False Belief Number 1: Starting a successful website is for other people . . . but not for me. I just can't do it.

    The Truth: You can do it. It's not fall-out-of-bed easy. It's not push-a-button automatic. It will require work. But if you use the tool that I recommend (and use), you can do it. Why? Because this tool is an All-In-One Solution. For a surprisingly low price you get everything you need:

    • A great name for your site that includes the annual registration fee for your URL.
    • Simple tools to help you design your site even if you no nothing about design or HTML.
    • A webhost for your site.
    • Tools to help you identify the key "search terms" you need to use in your site.
    • Guidance in optimizing your site for various search engines and automatic submission to various search engines.

    • Regular email updates with important, timely information about the ever-changing world of the Internet along with steps you can take to improve your site and make it more successful.

    The amazing thing is that you get all of this (and more) for less than $500. Honestly, I still can't believe this is true, but I tell you it is. This is the tool I use and I'm just describing to you my actual experience.
