The University is in full swing this season, our students and members have broken all records for production anticipated. I am encouraged by the success of our internet marketing system. Check this out:

Do you need a website?

A lot of marketers will tell you, “No” you don’t need a website in order to be successful online. And they’re right to an extent, because there are a variety of ways to make monëy without a website. HOWEVER, most of those guys are probably trying to sell you some program, and they just don’t want you to be inhibited from buying it…

In my opinion, you will be at a severe disadvantage if you don’t have your own website. You can only go so far without it, and if you try to go without it, there will eventually come a time when you want one. A lot of newbies make the mistake of saying, “I’ll get one later when I really need it.”

The best time to start your website is NOW. For one thing, it takes time for websites to develop natural traffic, and the sooner you get started, the sooner you will start getting search engine traffic. For another thing, you can use your website in correlation with almost any avenue of online income that you decide to pursue.

It’s OK if you don’t have any content for your website, I’ll show you where to get content later. All you need is a simple one page to start with. Here is one that doesn’t require any skills with html, scroll the main page of the University for the link:

Do I need to learn HTML?

Again, here’s where the vast majority of “gurus” will say, “No” you don’t need any skills…you can use visual editing software, or hire someone to build your site. And again, here’s an area where I disagree with “most” gurus…

You can be successful without learning HTML (the language that is used to create websites), but you will be at a serious disadvantage if you don’t learn it. I’ve seen a lot of intelligent and skilled marketers who refuse to take the time to learn HTML, and as a result it becomes a stumbling block for them. They are totally dependent on their webmaster anytime they want to make a change or launch something new.

On the flip side, if you know HTML you will have total independence to build your business at your own pace. For example, if I come across a hot new idea, I can build and launch a simple website in less than an hour.

Please don’t get overwhelmed by this. It’s a lot easier than you think to learn HTML, and you can take your time. Most people can have a good grasp on it and create a simple website with only a few hours of study.

What about web hosting?

You need a web host for your website. That’s how people will be able to see your website on the world wide web.

WARNING: Do not go and use the first host you find, or the cheapest. It is VERY important to choose a good host, or it will cause you problems and frustration later on.

As a former web host, I know what to look for in a hosting company, and I know the warning signs of the hosts to stay away from (I also wrote a course about how to sell hosting, which you can download for frëë here).
Hopefully this hasn’t been an overload of information for you… just remember to take it all slowly. There’s no need to stress yourself out and try to do everything at once. I’m cramming 9 years of experience into a few short lessons, so take it step by step and don’t hesitate to ask me if you have questions about anything we’ve covered.

Have a great day!
