Setting Up Your Internet Business Infrastructure

Setting up your internet business infrastructure can be quite a task for someone who may not be familiar with internet marketing. There's quite a bit to take into consideration, such as what type of business one is starting, the equipment needed, and urls (domain names). Lets start with the basics, of course you need a computer, something less then three years of age. Reasons are, technology is changing constantly and you need to have the right type of equipment to handle software upgrades, video downloads and more. Also needed is a great operating system. The new Vista for windows is good but you can still operate with windows 2000. However, I would upgrade to a better version of windows as soon as possible. It would be good to have a printer but not necessary. Last but not least, high speed internet. This will allow one to utilize the phone while building his or her home base internet business.

Systems

There should be systems in place for your online home base business. For example, accounts receivables, lead capture page, websites for promotion, customer service, warranties etc. These things are put in place to help your business run as smooth as possible without stress. However, it takes time and money to enable these necessities in your home base business. One must think of leveraging his or her efforts by using cost effective methods that work.

One of the best ways to create a long term income and business growth online is to create a Search Engine Optimized website or Blog. The best thing about growing your Network Marketing business online via this method is that your web business can be about absolutely anything you want. Your imagination is your only limitation. However, it is going to take time and you absolutely must stay with it. Give yourself time enough to succeed and not quitting pre-maturely. All to many times I have seen people wanting to go into business but don't have what it takes to stay with it.

Research

Do your research on websites that are similar to what you want to do and see how many links are associated with them. I have always used Marketleap. Go to Marketleap and select the "link popularity check" option. In the slots provided enter your four main competitors URLs then enter the computer-generated access code and click "generate report".

The next page that you see will list your competitor's websites with a star next to them and directly to the right of that star you'll see a number. That number is your competitor's link popularity. This shows how many other sites online link to that particular site in each of the major search engines.

Realize that you can make a very nice living online if you have the information available to you. But most of what you need comes from within yourself. One of those qualities is staying with it until you achieve your objectives. And that's the hard part....
