The Online Business Quandary
Building an online business is about as simple as re-building
the Coliseum. Type any combination of "online business programs"
into Google and watch all of the latest get rich quick scams
populate the search engine results. These companies are geniuses
at Internet marketing, but they all fail to produce real results
that are quantifiable and measurable over an extended period of
time. They would certainly prove their online business client's
success if they could.
For many entrepreneurs, the sheer thought of building an online
business is quickly broken down into thoughts of failure and
misery. It seems as though the Internet is only a playground for
net geeks these days. There are plenty of scam companies ready
and willing to take the hard-earned cash for those not lucky
enough to be net-savvy. It's a sad story that has been told a
million times.
In any entrepreneurs search for truthful, honest and profitable
business ventures there comes a point in which they must make an
important decision. Choice "A" talks big, promises huge results,
and sounds the most appetizing. Choice "B" mentions hard work,
building a solid business, and personal responsibility. Both
sell the same product, but only one can produce results of
successful clients and offers a money-back guarantee.
Choice "A" is unfortunately the preferred choice of many small
business entrepreneurs. The thought of paying a few bucks for a
domain name, a few more bucks for hosting, plugging in some
code, and setting up a shopping cart sounds too good to pass up.
They invest minimal time into an online business because they
have become brainwashed by the hosting company. After all, if
they build it the customers should come. Right? Ask for the
proof of client success.
Choice "B" is for the intelligent entrepreneurs. It is the
choice that recognizes a true business person. An online
business is just as much work as an offline business. A business
person would never think to go with the cheapest quality
businesses essentials in the off-line world. Why would they
choose to online? Again, look for solid quantifiable proof just
like you would in an off-line business world.
The truth is there is a lot more to building an online business
than just creating a website. No one searches for a particular
website, unless you are Amazon.com or another big-name site.
Instead searchers need information. They need answers to their
questions and their concerns. They go to their trusted search
engine and type in their query. The search engine scours its
database looking for relevant results to make its customer happy.
An online business should aim to be in the search engines top 30
results for a particular query. If not, the business is

basically invisible. An online business that is invisible means
it is not profitable. Next thing Choice "A" websites know, it is
time to close the ethereal doors. Choice "B" automatically
submits each new and updated page to the major search engines.
Choice "B" even tells its customers if a page was written
poorly. All of this is a part of building a sustainable online
business.
Building a profitable online business does not have to require
loads of geek knowledge. In fact, there are companies out there
dedicated to bringing the online business world to hopeful
entrepreneurs. The tough part is weeding thought all the get
rich quick schemes waiting to tempt you. Choice "B" does exist.
Choice "B" is more than willing to share its client's success
rates with the world. Before any online entrepreneur jumps into
get rich quick territory, they should research and read about
all kinds of online business companies. To receive a host of
