Web Hosting Is More Than Just Bandwidth

Building a Web Site? You Need to Host it Somewhere... But Where?

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 profitable Web business, or do you want to just "put up a site"?

Regular Web hosting is fine for the latter, but to build a business, you need more.

Think of it...

There are so many Web sites competing with you. How do you make your site stand out and be found at Google and the other Search Engines?

How do you build a professional, popular, and profitable business like these people have?

The Answer Is Not In The Web Hosting

Your Web site should be more than just a Web site. It should get found and build free, targeted traffic, your traffic. If you don't own your traffic, you don't own a business online.

In short, your Web site should drive business. Most Web sites merely exist. They don't generate income. To be blunt, they fail.

couple image There is no need to worry about all the technical specifics of Web hosting companies. They are all uniformly excellent these days.

Don't fall for "cheap, quick, easy." Success takes work. The key is to focus 100% upon your business, instead of wasting 95 out of every 100 hours upon technical issues (HTML, CGI, FTP, SEO, etc.).

How?

Through a Web hosting package that provides a proven process and a tech-free, complete set of site-brainstorming-building-hosting-and-marketing tools. A combination that delivers thriving, profitable businesses.

Only one Web hosting provider does that. SiteSell.com offers you Site Build It! ("SBI!"), Web hosting that works. And the proof, as they say, is in the pudding...

Look for track records of success as you investigate where to host your Web site. As you scour possible providers, the best you will ever find is a few well-chosen testimonials.

Compare their proof (if any) to SBI!'s documented, verifiable proof. One example... 62% of SBI! sites end up in the top 3% of ALL Web sites on the Net...

Alexa Ranking

Summary of Results

  • 35% of SBI! sites ranked in the top 1% of all sites (i.e., their Alexa Traffic Rank was in the Top 560,000, higher than 99% of all sites on the Web).
  • 53% were in the top 2%
  • 62% scored in the top 3%.

Does It Make A Difference Where You Host Your Site?


Yahoo!, Verio, 1&1, or AOL? Which one? It simply does not matter. They are all the same. They all deliver...

  • 99.99% uptime
  • high bandwidth allowance
  • high storage numbers, and
  • near zero percent success rates.

Your success does not lie in the host. It's in the process and tools. It's in your understanding how to succeed, and then executing.

In other words...

It matters how your Web site is hosted, not where.

It matters that you have 1,000+ visitors per day, not whether "uptime" is 99.99% or 99.999%.

It matters that you succeed. And that is all that matters.

How is Site Build It! Different?

Web hosting is the easy, generic part. But Site Build It! guides you through a proven process that works together with all the tools at exactly the moment you need them. Nobody else in the world does that.

Standard Web hosting is too complicated. SBI! makes the technology disappear so you can focus on building your business. Web hosting itself is the least important part of the package, but it is included, and it is top-notch.

Your success is the most important part! And that's included, too. Guaranteed.

Why Is Google Worth Billions?

Google is worth billions of dollars because 99% of Web sites must advertise to generate traffic. Not you. You are going to build your own traffic...

Traffic that likes and trusts you, believes in you, tells their friends about you, and buys from you.

The "cheap-quick-easy" message is, in fact, not so cheap. $3/month gets you a Web site. But if no one ever sees it, it costs you thousands of dollars worth of your time. And then, thousands more advertising on Google.

Instead, own your own traffic, like these successful SBI! owners.

Net Result?
SBI! Does More Than Host Your Site...
It Builds Your Business

Try it and see for yourself. Take SBI! home for a "No Risk Test Drive." Using SBI! is the best way to experience its power and depth... AT NO RISK.

You'll soon have a site that attracts warm, willing-to-buy visitors...

YOUR visitors. And then... YOUR customers.

You have a future to gain and a past (i.e., your knowledge) to convert into income, and you have absolutely nothing to lose thanks to the guarantee.

and life is less than it should be."

MySQL and IBM integrate databases

VIPeers Intoduces Free BitTorrent Hosting




Today, VIPeers has launched a new and totally free BitTorrent hosting service. With VIPeers, everyone can easily share large files up to 5 GB with as many people as they wish, without having to seed it themselves. The service can be best described as a mashup between one-click hosting sites like Rapidshare and BitTorrent.
Although millions of people use BitTorrent on a daily basis, only a few are actually publishing content. When someone want to share a large video file, or a couple of photo’s, Rapidshare and similar file hosting services are often preferred.
With VIPeers this might change, since it is one of the few sites that makes it really easy to share files over BitTorrent. The service eliminates the need to create a .torrent file, add trackers, and seed the file - stuff people often find cumbersome. All you need to do is use the web based uploader, point to the file you want to share on your computer, and VIPeers takes care of the rest.

VIPeers Web-uploader
The whole process works very intuitive, and even people who have never heard of, trackers, seeds or peers will be able use it without running into trouble. When the file has been uploaded to VIPeers, it will show a list of sharing options, including a direct link to the .torrent file. You can send this link to the people you want to share the file with, or upload the torrent file to any other BitTorrent site if you don’t mind making it public.
In addition, VIPeers offers “widgets” for blogs, forums and other websites to make it even more easy to share files. The other option is to include a link to the download page, which also has a direct download link, and a link to download it via Podmailing.
VIPeers’ Louis Choquel told TorrentFreak that he has seen the highest speed with BitTorrent downloads, especially when more people are downloading the file. Another advantage of using BitTorrent is that the torrent can live on indefinitely. “The duration of hosting is limited to a maximum of 3 months. But after that, we continue tracking the torrent so that the swarm can live on and enable people to continue downloading it, even though it’s not on our server anymore,” Choquel said.
Overall I would say that VIPeers succeeded in making BitTorrent more accessible as a publishing tool, and a 5 GB limit is much more than most of the competition offers. Also, not having to seed a file can be very convenient. The only downside to the service is that you’ll have to sign up in order to upload files. VIPeers is currently invite only, but TorrentFreak readers can sign up with the invite code TORRENTFREAK888.

  • Online Banking: One of the top requested features, online banking saves users time on data entry and increases the accuracy of their financial records by easily connecting to and downloading transactions from their participating financial institution directly into QuickBooks. Small businesses can gain control of their cash flow by seeing which checks have cleared their accounts, which transactions are pending, and get up-to-date account balances, all in one place.

Gain Insights and Information

QuickBooks 2009 offers small businesses a wealth of information, helping them gain insights and run their business more efficiently.

"The saying 'a picture is worth a thousand words' is really given meaning with QuickBooks 2009," said Sean Graham of Global Products and Services in Oakdale, Calif. "The Company Snapshot feature is exactly what I have been waiting for. I can provide my partners an instant view of our company's financial health with a single click."

Get New Customers and Do Business in a Global Economy

New features also address two big trends for small businesses today - going online to get more customers and doing business in a global economy.

  • Free Web site: Intuit research shows that while less than half of small businesses have a Web site, more than 95 percent want one. Users can now create a professional-looking, customized, free Web site to reach current and new customers. Intuit will host the Web site for free for 12 months from the date of purchase.
  • Multi-Currency: Almost half of U.S. small businesses will be involved in global trade by 2018, according to the Intuit Future of Small Business Report;. QuickBooks 2009 now supports all international currencies, eliminating the need to manually account for foreign transactions. It allows small businesses to buy and sell easily around the world and seamlessly manage their finances, customers and vendors at home and abroad.
  • International Payments: QuickBooks 2009 users can also connect directly to Intuit's international payment service, making it easy to process wire transfers and drafts in more than 100 foreign currencies right from within the software.

"Using the multi-currency features in QuickBooks makes it easy for me to deal with inventory and accounts across our entire enterprise," said Kenneth Cole of Blue Wolf Technical Services in Falls Church, Va.
