Some of them have their own products, some others want to promote other’s products. They want to be a success in internet business, and they feel they also have capacity to achieve that as long as they know how to start with. So I made this article to help and encourage those who have the spirits to become a successful internet marketer.
Some of my friends asked me about the tools that we should prepare to begin our works in internet marketing. I was asked more than three times about this, so I think it would be easier for me to prepare a list, and if I will be asked the same question again in the future, I will just show this list to him or her.
If you are going to have an online business, first tool that you should have is computer or laptop. You can borrow it from friends or other family members, but having your own computer will make you easier to operate your own business, especially when your business has grown up.
Equip your computer with some softwares which can help you build a website and upload your files to the server. I would recommend that you learn a little about basic html or php. There are some books that will guide you understanding this basic code language.
If you do not want to be bothered by those alien languages, than you may install dreamweaver or frontpage from Microsoft Window. These softwares are easy to use, because they are declared as “wysiwyg" website developer softwares, or stands for “what you see is what you get". With this softwares, building a website will be as easy as typing through Microsoft Word.
This is easy. Compare this: if you want to make a paragraph using html code, you would need to add the code : after the last sentence of the previous paragraph. While you just need to click “enter" button to make a new paragraph with wysiwyg softwares.
Next things that you should have is a domain name and hosting. Domain name is something like www.yourdomainname.com. Your domain name could only be onlined through hosting. You need to store your files for your website, and hosting provide some spaces for that purposes.
You would only be able to upload your files to the server or hosting when you are connected to the internet. So, having a connection to the internet is other tool that you must have.
You need to buy a domain name only if you want to have a professional look for your online business. Actually, you can build a blog for your business. If you choose having a blog, then you do not need to buy a domain name and hosting. Blogger.com, blogsome.com, etc. will help you having a blog.
These tools are enough to start your online business. Next, when you are capable enough of building a website and want to start to promote your products, then you may need a credit card or paypal account to make you easier to withdraw or receive money.
