Starting with an Internet Home Based Business Business is really quite simple. BUT, first you must decide if you are going to market your own product or service, or become an affiliate and sell someone else's product or service for a commission of the sales.

There are other ways to make money online with your home based business, but these are the most common, so we will concentrate on them.

Website - If you have a product in mind, you will need a domain name and a website. You can research and order a domain name here: domains.marketsavvyonline.com
You will need a website to start your Internet Home Based Business. Rather than pay someone to build a site for you, I highly recommend using a site that has a simple site build feature as well as a built in content builder for Search Engine Marketing. SiteSell.com is your best bet. There is no other all in one web solution company that can hold a candle to them. Trust me when I say, they are head and shoulders above the rest!

If you decide you are going to put a site together yourself for your home based business, you will need to do your homework first. You will also need some basic html knowledge, or a good html editor.

• You will need to research keywords related to your product/service.
• You must put together some relevant content for your product/service.
• You will have to research other sites selling similar products and/or services to see how their sites are structured, and how their "Sales Process" flows. This will give you great insight on how to best structure your home based business web site.

TIP: Always remember that people are searching for information related to what you are selling. Give them some content to sink their teeth into, and you will have a chance to turn them into a customer.

Meta-Tags - Meta tags are part of a web page that "talks" to the search engines. Proper use of these tags will help your site to be indexed for inclusion in the search engines. This is how your content really pays you dividends. If you have some great content for your site, and this content has your keyword phrases in it, your relevance of content to keywords will allow you to place well in the search engines. Then you tweak your content and keywords to move up in the search engine rankings. You can use our meta tag tool on our Tools Page.

Keywords - Keywords are words or word phrases in your meta tags related to your product or service. (ex. "fda approved nutritional products"). This is why it is very important to research what search string that is used when searching for your type of product/service. You want to optimize your site for the terms which are being searched for, not necessarily what terms you think they will use when searching. You can find a link to research keywords on our Tools Page.

One of the most important parts of your home based business website will be your optin form. This is where you get people who visit your site to sign up for your newsletter or to receive email updates from you. This is where you begin to build your list, so on to List Building.
