Branding your Business online

The next step to Branding your Business online after purchasing and registering your domain is purchasing a hosting package to suit your business needs. Hosting is the step between your business and publishing it to the worldwide web. Offline a business takes its marketing materials to a publisher to be published and then distributed, online its to a hosting provider where your marketing material is made public online.

Hosting

There are any companies online that offer hosting packages, with varying features and prices. Most anyone can afford to buy basic hosting pack as prices have fallen over the past few years. However, one should not only be dictated by the price alone but also by the services that the hosting company provides.

Best Affordable Hosting

Identifying your business needs goes a long way to selecting the hosting package that will suit your budget and your specifications. At Small Business Consulting  we can help you assess your hosting needs and suggest  the best possible solution, however simple or complex it may be. If you are an internet marketer your needs will go way beyond a simple fun site that often you can get for free.

Hosting Features

Here are some hosting features in order of priority that I consider to be of paramount importance when considering and selecting a web hosting provider.  As a user of various hosting companies I realise these to be important:  

Customer Support

I remember when I first started how important this service was:  good, reliable customer support, providing technical assistance  and solutions as and when needed. Even today when something goes amiss it is important to have assistance from customer support.

Backups

It is important to know that the hosting provider can provide backup and has a regular backup routine in place. This however should not stop you from setting up your own backup and maintenance routine.

Web Space

Your account will require a certain amount of web space, and as you grow you need reassurance that you can also expand according to your needs.

Reliability and Access

No hosting company can really guarantee 100% uptime, those really unforeseen downtime’s do happen as well occasional short downtime for major maintenance. A good hosting company will deal with emergencies immediately and there should be very little disruption to the running of your online business. Speedy access to a website is also an important feature to considered in order that visitors are not lost by slow working websites.

At ChiHosters we provide an excellent service with hosting plans starting at:

* No Limit Shared Hosting: U$35 per year.

*Semiomantics Pro Hosting for Advanced Semiomantics Publishing: U$ 29.95 per month

* Hosting Reseller Plan (WHM): U$99.99 per month

* VSM 20GB Allocated Virtual Managed Server: U$150.00 per month
Sell WHM Reseller Packs

•Increased configuration and flexibility
•Increased uptime and security
•Full Root access
•100% Management and Monitoring – This means we worry about your server, and you worry about your sales!
•The ability to sell reseller accounts
•Based on a Dual AMD Opteron 275, 8GB ram and 20GB HD space dedicated to you.

Other options are also available on demand. Discussing your specific needs with a Consultant or hosting providing can result in a unique and satisfactory hosting solution designed especially for you.

Small business online

Today any business that ignores the potential of marketing online is missing out on the enormous pool of potential customers and profit that the internet has to offer. The internet has opened up a global playing field for any business to take advantage of it and be an active player.

Developing an Online Presence

Developing an Online Presence can be a relatively simple affair if you know which steps to take first, otherwise it can result in being a total nightmare when searching for the right solution for your business. You can get totally lost in the minefield of information that there is. Discussing your business needs with a Small Business Consultant can save you both a lot of time and money in the long run.

Small Business Online

Building a Small Business Online

As with operating any other business, starting a small business online is a matter of developing good practices, building confidence and relationships with customers and offering products and services at a fair price.

Small Business Marketing plan

In order to market your product/s online you must have a marketing plan in place, a roadmap that drives to your ultimate goal. Drawing up such a plan is not to be a rushed process, it is worth taking the time and doing some research in order to achieve the desired result. Here are some basic questions that need to be considered when creating your marketing plan:

* Do you have the right product to attract potential customers?
* Is your product/s priced competitively?
* Which customers are you targeting? where is your target market?
* Which effective marketing techniques will you employ to reach your target?

By really spending time researching, testing, tracking and evaluating strategies, your plan will generate not only high volumes of traffic but interest, brand recognition, customers and sales that boost your business profits. Marketing plans also need to undergo periodic reviews; markets change, trends change, all of these to be considered when you evaluate the success your  plan.  

Small Business Marketing Budget

One of the first essential steps for any business, on or offline,  is to decide upon and allocate a marketing budget, both yearly and the monthly that includes the running cost.  Without advertising your business it is more likely not to succeed these days due to the enormous aggressive competition that there is around.  Marketing your small business does cost money if you wish to succeeed!  One of the main advantages of marketing  your business online is that you do have low start up costs however as your business develops online you may need to expand and also take into consideration new marketing techniques that could further generate business growth.

A marketing budget has to based on a solid business plan. The budget must be realistic; even if you go so far as to learn how to do it yourself there is still a cost. Not everyone has the time nor the patience to go through the learning curve that is required to run a profitable small business online.

If you are busy running a business time is always at a premium. Working together with a  qualified online business developer or consultant, discussing and brainstorning ideas means that he/she will find the best solution for your particular business needs and time and money is not wasted. Spending money on the right solution is an investment towards your business’s future.

IT Consulting 

At Small Business Consulting we are part of a small international team of highly trained web developers, designers, project managers and consultants who will work with you on a one to one basis, discussing your plan and the best possible solution in order to assure long term customer satisfaction and performance.

Britain’s Big Freeze continues

Britains big freeze continues with temperatures dropping to -22 Celsius at  night and is forecast to last into next week. Cold! For those trying to carry on and get to work its a real misery as joureys take far longer than normal. Many roads are treacherous. Transport services and goods deliveries have also been disrupted.

For more pictures see the gallery.

Freeze or Heatwave

The knockon effect of this cold spell can be felt almost everywhere, in agriculture, industry and sport. Farmers struggling to keep herds fed,  workers not been able to get into work, schools  closed and many sport venues cancelled.  Economically the whole of the country has been disrupted. Snow is only fun when you are well prepared to cope with the conditions.  Here in the U.K. we are definitely not prepared for such a big freeze as this. We freeze and yet in South Africa the British cricketers suffer in a heatwave of temperatures of over 40 Celsius.

Britain dips into conditions lower than the South Pole, others  bask on the beaches in soaring temperatures in a heatwave. Real extremes in the weather. The climate has certainly changed. The plants tell their own story too as they respond to the changes; global warming as predicted by the scientists is happening , whether man made or not, we do need to be prepared just like the good old fashioned boy scouts. Who knows what next week will bring.

Britain’s Big Freeze

The snow and cold weather grips the nation, with temperatures falling as low as -17C in some areas. Britains’ big freeze of 2010 is quite a contrast to other years when temperatures were so mild that a stroll along the beach was a pleasant experience. Today we stay huddled up indoors to keep warm, fires or central heating on and only a few brave folk venturing out on the nearly empty roads. Many main roads round here are passable, but require caution and very slow speeds, however, the minor roads are really treacherous. Ice is the main problem causing both people and cars to skid.

Extremes – Summer/Winter

Cold Weather

The cold weather is here to last for a few more days, so the weathermen tell us, creating problems for many citizens around the British Isles. This weather has not only hit Britain but also many countries in the northern hemisphere, France, Norway, Spain and central Europe to name a few, whilst the mediterranean countries enjoy warmer weathe than usual. I personally don’t remember us here in our part of the country having such a long, cold spell for many years. As a child we used to have winters like this, but over the past 20years or so winters round here have been reasonably mild. Is this the ‘extremes’ that we were warned about with the coming of the global warming?

Web Development

Today, web development includes not only developing a  website but also incorporates interactivity and communication with consumers, a bonus for any marketer marketing his products online.

Owning a website on the World Wide Web is a real advantage for any trader therse days. As more and more people all over the world gain access to the internet so many more people search online for services or products. By owning website you increase your business visibility and increase your customer potential, not only locally but globally.

Running a website can be time-consuming and require specialist knowledge, not something that every business owner is suited to. Using a professional web developer or web designer makes your life trouble free, simply leaving the working of a website to the expert.

Preparing for MMX

All the hustle and bustle of Christmas 2009 is nearly all behind us and so we begin to look forward to and prepare for MMX, 2010, the New Year ahead and the begining of a  new decade.

Many of the large companies like Microsoft have already planned for the new year ahead with new edtions of popular products, for example: Microsoft Office 2010. We too in our own way plan the year ahead making plans for the future; re-designing, revamping, improving  and creating new products.

In our personal lives we often make New Years  resolutions: to better ourselves, go on a diet, go on holiday  giving ourselves new goals to drive us forwards, things to look forward to.

Zygmunt Bell in Krakow’s Wawel Cathedral…”Big Sig” still is where it was hung in 1521… it needs the strength of ten men to ring the giant bell every Christmas, New Year Day…

MMX

MMX, 2010, what does this new decade hold for us all?

Let us continue to hope that the peoples of the world unite and discover Peace and Harmony and strive together towards better understanding of one anothers needs. ’One world, one people.’ We are after all the human race whatever guise we come in, and we only have one world.

Preparing for MMX …..there’s much work being done in the background on and to the new site ‘Small Business Consulting’. There’s much more to come in the New Year.

Daily Online Training Calls

I really can’t believe how quickly this year, 2009, has flown by. We have just had our last Daily Online Training Call, and what a super call it was. 

If I look back to January 2009 and go through the topics, seminars and skills learnt in the proeeding months I realise how much has been achieved through out the year and yet there lies still so much more ahead for all the participating members. The online environment is forever changing, adapting, evolving. What was good yesterday is old hat and unstylish today.  In a competetive marketplace every marketer knows that he needs to keep up with the latest trends.

Daily Online Training Calls 2010

Planning well ahead, the New Year Daily Online Training Calls will start on 11th January, as usual in yorgotalk.com @ 8p.m. London time.
