Good question! I believe you will find the helpful information you are looking for in the section on my Web site titled: " The Aptitude Test for Web Entrepreneurs ".
"Can I build a Web business in my spare time, and still make a success of it?"
The short answer is: "Yes you can!" It is, in fact, preferable that you keep your job until your Web business can generate enough steady income for you to live on.
Use the extra income wisely, as it grows. Do not blindly pump money, time, and effort into your business idea, not matter how great you believe it to be.

I hope this answers your question. If not, please ask here.
"I want an online business, but I don't know where to start. Can you help?"
Have a look at this, for starters . Then come back here if you need to. I will always be here to help you in your first steps. They are the most important ones, after all!
"I have a business idea. How do I build a Web site to promote it?"
The first thing to do is to make sure it is a viable idea for the Web environment. You cannot promote your product or services on the Web, the same way you do on "land". The Web requires different marketing techniques.
You can verify the potential profitability of your business idea by simply following the same
Site Build It! process
that I use for my Web business.
Take a look around my site to familiarize yourself with the "big picture" and the planning aspect.
To further answer your question, take a
quick tour of the solution I chose
, and actually use, to promote myself as a Web business planning advisor on the Web.
"How long does it usually take to build a Web site for business purposes?"
Honestly, that really depends on you. You will be the one at the controls. No question about it!
But, with the SBI process, you will not be wasting any time in damage control. Instead, you will be steadily, and safely, be forging ahead. You will be making the best use of your time.
Building a professional Web site for business purposes takes as much time, effort, and dedication as … building a business!
After you have done the appropriate amount of research, and planning, you will eventually sit down and write your Home Page. These first steps are probably the hardest because you do not see results right away.
You may be able to create your home page in a single day.
The question is, to get there, you may have spent a few weeks researching your Web site theme, best domain name, legal issues, competition, etc.
Don't let all this intimidate you. I can help you take it one step at a time. You won't stumble and fall, if you take your time, and follow the
SBI process
.
Have a quick look at the SBI step by step process here
. See for yourself. You will get an idea of what to expect.
For a more in depth look at the SBI process, have a look at the SBI User Guide here.
Some people can start building their Web site full time, while others can only devote a few spare hours a week.
Devote whatever number of quality hours you can find toward building your business Web site.
The bottom line is: you can have a working Web site after a few weeks. You can have a viable business after a few months … of expert guided work.
To make sure you do not waste your time, take up my offer. Use all the expert guidance you can put your hands on here!

Wow, that's a long question! You can get the answer to that question right here, in a "nutshell" . You don't have to look any further than that!
All I can say is that
Site Build It!
is not another one of the so called "plug and play" Web site building solution. It works, not only for me, but for countless others also.
There are more than 56 million sites on the Web. Check where Alexa.com ranks
top-web-entrepreneurs-plan-it.com
Is it in the top 10%, or 5%, or 2%, or 1%?
Site Build It! is a comprehensive, proven "process"
. It involves your active participation in a time tested, step by step course of action. It will enable you to build a business, using a Web site that you will have built yourself, with the help and guidance of experts.
The SBI process ensures that your Web site will be built according to the best of breed business practices on, and for, the Web.
If that does not fully answer your question,
please ask here
.
"If I already have a domain name, can I transfer it to my site built with SBI?"
Easy question! Yes, you can transfer your domain name. But our experience is that 90% of the people discover a more suitable, and profitable domain name as they follow the SBI! process. That's another question.
So, while you can transfer your domain name, it is highly recommended that you "work" the process. You may just find out that your current domain is in fact the perfect domain. But, if it's not, and you find a better one, your business will enjoy a much stronger presence on the Web.
Choosing a domain name is one of the crucial early decisions you will have to make. No question about it!
All the instructions on how to make the right decisions are found here in the first sections of the
Site Build It! User Guide
.
Stay tuned!
I hope these answers have been of help. Do come back often. I will be adding to this site regularly.
