What type of website is right for you?

Which Type of Website is Right for You?

You want and decide to start an online business but are you wondering
what type of website? That’s what this article is about. Listed below are three different types of websites and the one you choose depends on what you want to do with your online business.

Below a brief overview.

Three Types of Websites Featured on the Main Tabs below:

Wild Apricot: A content rich multiple page website, based on a service, a hobby, or a passion you may have. You must like to write about a topic.

One Page Website: Also known as a landing page used to focus on one product and the building of a mailing list of subscribers. Learn the 5 Steps to Building an Online Business.

A WordPress Blog: If you are going to choose blogging as a way to start your first online business, you need a blog platform that is easy to manipulate and one that draws traffic, like this Wordpress theme.

Your website is the vehicle for your business. In all cases mentioned above, no online business will be successful without traffic. Wild Apricot uses multiple pages that you can fill with rich content which attracts traffic from the search engines. It also employs various techniques to ensure every page is search engine friendly. Wild Apricot is a step by step process which guides beginners through the process of building an internet based home business through a website that works.

A One Page Website is a lot easier to build. The real work involved with this type of website is not in the content, but “the offer” presented as well as the process involved in email marketing. Not to be misunderstood or confused with a 'Sales Page" the e-course or subscription offered as part of the One Page Website presentation still goes over basics of how to create your first website.

I do recommend a blog as one of the best way to get started online. It's not very difficult to get a lot of traffic from a blog but it is a long process with a lot of writing. Still, it can be a fun way to get your feet wet and upgrading to professional WordPress experience. Also more friendly by giving you the flexibility with a personalized WordPress theme and add pluggings.

I encourage you to research each one and decide what type of website you feel works best for you as you begin an internet business working from home.

I recommended that you do not start all three styles of websites at once. Choose the one method that suits your goals and succeed at that system of making money before you move on to other trying other things.

Every Website Needs Traffic and the Right System

Different types of business need different types of websites. It also needs to be repeated that to have any level of success, your website needs traffic. It also needs a profitable process in place for making money. Getting people to your site is only the first step. Making sure your conversion rate is profitable is a different story.

Since my first attempt at a different type of website, I did eventually manage to work on a few successful projects that have added to my work at home income.Some of my websites are in fact “in auto pilot” and I don’t have to do much with them. Many do not employ the methods of Wild Apricot process, as they are one page websites with a single focus. Other websites I operate contain a lot of information.

With any online business venture, the first 3 months are the toughest. There is a ton of information to get through. It’s a step by step process. The second three months however, even though things are getting easier, are when most people quit. They give up before success can be achieved.

If you do the proper keyword research and you have a passion for what you are doing, you need to move ahead with confidence.

Some online home businesses start making money in the first couple of months. Others take a little longer. In addition to keyword research, you also want to make sure there are already competitors making money as well.

If there is no competition, then there’s a good chance there is no market at all.

The benefits of niche markets and micro niche markets is that there is less competition. If the traffic potential is there, there after you’ve done your keyword research, it will be easier to make money sooner in a niche market.

While I wouldn’t recommend starting an online business for everyone, for many people it’s one of the best ways to generate income without a job. It has certainly worked disgustingly well for me.
