| need a website... How do I build it?... Do I need a website designer, or can I do it myself?... Where do I host my new website?... Where do I register the domain name?... I have created my e-book... How do I deliver it automatically to my customers after they buy it from me? After all, one of the people at the seminar spoke that automation is key to running any online business... I will need a shopping cart. Which one is the best out there?... How do I integrate it with a merchant account?... Oh, by the way, which merchant account do I choose?... I will need to generate traffic to my website. How do I build my web pages so that they are optimized for the search engines? Or do I need to hire a SEO (search engine optimization) agency to do it for me?... One of the seminar people spoke about affiliate programs. I want an affiliate program too, because I am sure that it will let me make more sales and increase my revenue. Where should I get one? Will it integrate with my website nicely? Or should I get a developer to build one for me from scratch? Hmmm, that could be expensive, I guess... I will want to promote across the Internet... In fact, I am in the process of negotiating with a couple of high-traffic puppy sites to get my banner on their websites. But how do I track my visitors and sales? After all, I heard that tracking is important, as it lets me focus my efforts on the promotions that generate the results and scrap the rest. Should I sign up for an ad tracker service? How do I integrate it with my website?... I need to capture my visitors details and send out a weekly newsletter with subconscious plugs that will make my subscribers buy. Oh, and I want one of these "Tell-A-Friend About This Site" features... Do I need a CGI script for this? But I am not a programmer, so I dont know Perl, CGI, ASP. Do I need a programmer or a system administrator to configure and install it for me? Oh, did I mention that I need a forum too? |
