Since the websites are pre-built youare not paying hourly fees for a programmer to build a site foryou..and best of all, the quality of a turnkey website can be asgood if not better than a custom designed site! It is perfectfor those who would like to try making money online without abig financial committment! A turnkey website is a fully functional website featuringeverything that you will need to begin your new business. Thepurchase of the package should include a domain, website, andhosting. Depending on the nature of your business, the only feesinvolved are the purchase of the site itself and a low monthlyhosting fee which covers support. However when purchasing a turnkey website, do not fall under thefalse assumption that you will immediately start seeing moneyflow into your bank account from day 1. As with any business,online or not, promotion and advertising are the keys tosuccess. If you have never ran a website before then you wantmake sure the company you are buying from will provide helpalong the way. This includes advertising and promotionaladvice/tips as well as being available to answer any questionsyou have along the way. The last thing you want is to buy a siteand be left hanging without any idea how to promote or advertiseit. TurnkeyNation.com is an example of where one can go topurchase a turnkey website complete with domain, hosting, andfull support. Many times people who purchase turnkey websites do not have alarge budget set aside for advertising and promotion. Luckily,there are many low cost methods available that can immediatelybegin making an impact, and even some of the methods are FREE! Below are my opinions of what I feel are the best and most costeffective methods to promote your site and obtain targetedtraffic: 1) Forums - This is perhaps the best and most effective FREEmethod to obtain targeted traffic. You can sign up for forumsrelated to your website and add your URL to your signature. Thenstart posting and commenting with useful advice in the forum.Dont sell yourself, just post with friendly advice and peoplewill see your URL in your signature. The traffic will comeautomatically. This is one of the best free ways to gaintargeted traffic online. 2) Press Releases - Write a press release and submit it to allFREE online press release websites. As your press releasegradually begins to be aggregated throughout other press sitesand search engines, visitors will naturally begin visiting yoursite. 3) Ebay - Yes ebay may cost a little to post a listing or two,but if you can sell anything at all related to your website(even related ebooks) you can obtain a large amount of qualitytargeted traffic from eBay. You can begin by creating an "AboutMe" page on Ebay which directs customers to your website. Youwill then begin recieving instant targetted traffic and this canconvert into sales! 4) Link Building - This is another very effective and freemethod to obtain targeted traffic. When you trade links withother similar sites, you are inevitably going to receive moretargeted traffic. The important thing here is to trade linkswith sites which are closely related to yours. Not only does ithelp the visitor, it also helps your organic search engineresults. 5) Search Engines - You should submit your website to all searchengines and free directories. At the very least manually submitto the top 3 - Google, Yahoo, and MSN. But its best to submit toas many as possible. There are many resouces online where youcan pay a small fee to be submitted to 50+ search engines and150+ directories. 6) Google Adwords - This is a bit more costly than the abovemethods, however can be immensely successful when done properly.You essentially bid on keywords and then your ad will bedisplayed throughout the Google network. However, choosingproper keywords and budgets greatly affects your rate of successwithout draining your bank account. 7) Traditional Advertising - Dont underestimate traditionaladvertising methods. Even though your business/website isonline, that doesnt mean you cant attract potential customersfrom offline advertising. Although advertising via this methodis not free - Classified Ads, local radio spots, tv commercials,billboards, etc. can all drive traffic to your website. And bestis if you can advertise to a targeted market where you can caterto the needs of indivduals looking for a service or product yourwebsite offers. I recommend purchasing a turnkey website that interests you, andthen promoting/advertising it using free methods. Then once youare generating a profit, you can switch over to paid advertisingand invest more money into your business. The last bit of advice is to not expect overnight results.Granted, you can begin making money from day 1. However, just asa real world business thrives over time, the same applies toonline businesses. Once you website has been saturated into thesearch engines, and once customers begin advertising for you via"word of mouth" is when your business will begin to really takeoff.
