How I found the best learning tool for website building 

Website Building 101

Special SiteSell Promotion

I'd been playing around with the internet for a couple of years and in the Summer of 2005 decided that the way forward was to build my own website. That way I could stay at home and carry on looking after my twin sons full time. The problem was where and how to start. There are many website building programs on the net but most seemed to require me to either know HTML, or Cpanel!?, Dreamweaver or Frontpage. I hadn't a clue what they were talking about and it all seemed to amount to a lot of money being spent which I just didn't have. I'd read that having a free website builder hosted on someone else's server wasn't a good idea and would probably never be seen by the internet community. Not really much use if you're trying to earn an income.

Then one day I stumbled across SiteBuildIt. (SBI for short)

Well, I have to say that I didn't jump in with both feet. I asked around and got various answers mainly negative (although these were people who also had no websites so why I bothered to ask them I'll never know!) then I looked at it again, it was comprehensive, it compared what tools you had access to (for free) with those offered in other webbuilding programs. But, you know, what really clinched it for me was that I really didn't need to know any programming language, I just needed to be able to type (with 2 fingers, or whatever) I didn't need to go into the minefield of finding a webhost because SBI did that, they had 24/7 support and all that submitting to search engines would be taken care of, along with giving me site statistics and countless other goodies too numerous to mention here.

Boy was I glad that I followed by own instinct. From that day I've never looked back and I hope you'll see exactly what I mean. Have a look for yourself.

You'll have to look at the links below to see what I mean. There's a module for everyone, from a WAHM (work at home mum) to small businesses, affiliate marketers and seasoned website designers fed up with getting little or no traffic.

Oh and Steve left a comment on the guest list "where's mine" so here it is - my first ever site - Great-Salmon-Recipes

Paid Search Free $50 Credit 

Microsoft Adcenter

Try Microsoft adCenter today

Clicks don't make you successful, customers do. Use Microsoft adCenter for search marketing and reach out to more potential customers today. 



You get $50 free to play with (so great if you're just starting out with PPC)

However, if you are living in the UK you will not be eligible for this, but all is not lost. When you go to sign up you need to ring support and tell them that the promo code doesn't work as you live in the UK, they should then be able to manually add £50 (Pounds, not dollars) to your account for you to play with. (this suggestion is not a given, but it worked for me) Give it a go

2 Excellent Keyword Research Tools 

There are a couple of very good keyword research tools that I like to use. One of them is Wordtracker. Wordtracker has a limited free use version which will give you 100 related keywords and their daily search volume. This is a great way to start off your research for free.

Also I like Nichebot, Nichebot has the ability to dig really deep into the long tail keywords (or low hanging fruit) where although there may not be many searches there's also not much competition either. I find it very useful to get my sites indexed quickly by the Search Engines by using this method. You can take the NicheBOT Tour for a $1 Trial Offer. Give it a go, I promise you won't be disappointed.
