Small Business Web Host

What does your small business web host do for you? If you've done due diligence on small business web hosting services you have found there are quite a few companies out there with a variety of packages ranging from "Free" to several hundred dollars a month.

You're inundated with web hosting providers, the choices can be overwhelming. Promises of cheap, quick, and easy tempt you at every turn.

Here's what you need to ask yourself. Is your goal to build a website that works for your business, or do you want to just "put up a site"?

A word of caution: As with anything "Free" be sure to read the fine print in the terms of service. The old saying "There's no such thing as a free lunch" usually applies to web hosting services too.

Be sure to compare the services offered and pricing before you select a small business web host for your company. There are a lot of big name providers out there including:

• Microsoft Small Business
• Yahoo Small Business
• Yellowbook 360
• Deluxe Check Printing
• Intuit

The biggest problem with traditional web hosting providers is they assume you know how to build a website. They do not offer step-by-step tutorials, they offer domain names, business email, templates, technical support etc, but when it comes to "how to", there is little or no support.

The other extreme is, they will build a website for you. This gives you the very least amount of control over your web presence you can possibly have. They build the site, host it on their servers, make all changes and updates for you, basically they have total control over your website. This is not recommended.

There is an Alternative.

The small business web host I have used since 2007 is a company you may have never heard of before, SiteSell. SiteSell or SBI as it is also known, was founded in 1997 and has helped hundreds of thousands of regular people build online businesses.

SBI is the unique all-in-one package process, information, software tools, guidance. help, constant updating and upgrading that enables anyone to create websites that build profitable online businesses at unmatched rates of success. SBI sites constantly rank in the top 1% to 3% of all sites on the internet.

The SiteSell Forums alone are worth the price of admission. If SiteSell did not offer any other services, the quanity and quality of information found in the forums is well worth the price. There is so much noise on the internet, everyone selling the next big idea, it is a huge time saver to have a forum where the noise has been buffered and only tried and true information is discussed.

If you are serious about building a web presence for your company, research the companies I mentioned above and then compare their services to what SiteSell offers. It's time to build a website that works!
