This article is next in a series entitled 'Getting Started With Internet Marketing'. In the last article I tought you how to select a domain name. In this article I’ll teach you four ways quick and easy ways to develop a money producing web site using: blogging, Yahoo! and Ebay, using a professional service like ProStores.com, or CafeExpress.com.

Let's get started.

Blogging

A major advantage of getting started with blogging is that blogs are quick, easy, and in most cases free. A blog can be used as an online journal or a full web site to promote your product or service.

An easy way to get started building a professional presence online with blogging is with LiveJournal. With over 9 million users, LiveJournal is one of the world's largest online communities. You can use LiveJournal in many different ways: as a private journal, a blog, a social network, a content reader and much more.

Yahoo! & Ebay

Getting online by setting up an online store through Yahoo! and Ebay are very similar so we’ll cover them together.

You have three options to go on line with both.

1. Use the online wizards

2. Use your own design tool such as Dreamweaver

3. Use a professional designer in either network. You’ll pay extra for this.

In this article we’ll only discuss using the online wizard.

The wizards are easy to use. They provided all the tools you need to build, brand, and customize your store-with no technical knowledge required. Whether you're just starting out or enhancing your current setup, you'll find all the tools and resources you need right on the sites.

Look Professional: Establishing a professional presence will be important to stand out from your competition. Take some time to add your own Store logo. If you don’t have one yet, visit www.logoworks.com . You can create your own brand by selecting a design theme, color scheme and other display settings. Take time out to really think through the message and images you want to convey through your online presence.
