My Sitesell review

I must confirm the fact that Sitesell inc., has a business building platform that works by teaching entrepreneurs how to drive traffic to their websites through organic search marketing.

Not only do I confirm this, but their clients do as well. Sitesell differs from a lot of others web hosts because they believe in helping people that want to generate sales for real home-based businesses.

In order to do this, they provide unlimited data transfer, point-and-click page building, unlimited pages, unlimited email accounts, and e-mail forwarding through their completely proprietary technology, Site Build It!. What you will notice about SBI, is that the first thing they talk about is building lasting and real business relationships.

Most other hosting companies front pages are crowded with new features, packages and discounts for their services, but there really isn’t any help for building the business side of e-commerce.

Sitesell has been helping people build their business since 1997. They have 100,000 entrepreneurs and small businesses that claim to outperform their competitors, not by rankings, but by sales.

Most small business owners make the mistake of thinking that if they get higher rankings than anyone else; they will get more sales simply by being listed higher than their competition in a Google search. This turns out not to be true if you have the same product as everyone else.

Think about it. As a consumer, if you want to purchase a certain brand of sunglasses, you do a Google search and quickly scan what pops up in the top ten on your screen.

However, you may find hundreds or even thousands of sites that sell the same exact product for the same price. Human nature prompts you to look through the first three web sites at the top because this is an automatic reaction.

But think about it, how many times have you walked right in and out of the top three web sites because the lay out or sales pitch didn’t appeal to you and wound up buying from the company who had the number twenty ranking; merely because their site was easy to navigate and the return policy was easy to find.

This is the strength of Sitesell. They teach people how to build a website so that is easy to navigate, and the product is easy to purchase. This is extremely important, because not many customers are going to do business with a company just because their websites have a bunch of flash, photo galleries with discounted prices, and a shopping cart.

Actually, they might, but this leaves business owners scrambling for ways to fool the search engines in order to get that top ranking instead of concentrating on building a business. This is an aggressive, luck-of-the-draw sales strategy that ultimately fails.

SBI takes a natural and organic approach to web building that works in the long run. This process starts with content. Of course your site has to be relevant for the search engines to include it, but your content has to talk about why your company is different, especially if you are marketing a product that is readily available.

This is the first step of a natural and powerful four-step process that promises to gradually build consistent web rankings and create repeat business. , Click here to read about the stories of people who have built successful businesses through SBI.

The features included in their packages focus on building websites for the small business owner who is serious about e-commerce. Features like page templates, point-and-click form creation tools, catalog and shopping options, submission to Google and Yahoo, and tracking of search engine spiders are more helpful than what other hosting companies offer and are much more useful to someone who wants to make a living on the internet.

Sitesell's Site Build It! package is a little more expensive ($299.00/U.S.), than traditional webhosting. However, a traditional webhost doesn't do many of the things that SBI does behind the scenes, nor do they have a simple to use website building package that can be updated at your leisure.

If you are interested in learning what real and successful e-commerce is all about instead of going for rigged rankings, they are definitely worth checking out. Take 30 minutes to watch the video tour or take the quick tour
