Build A Do It Yourself Website Using Internet Software

The Internet offers you a global marketplace to sell your products or your service, something that no other method can provide. However, if you aren't a programmer and you have no working knowledge of the Internet you may find it difficult to establish your online presence.

First things first, you should conduct some form of market research. Ascertain any niche corners of the market that may still be available and aim to take advantage of them. There are fewer niches now than there once were, but there are still some. Look at your competitor's websites, in particular the value added services they are offering or any special offers. Try to match, or preferably beat, these offers when you do set up your website. Offer Internet only deals.
