Can't figure out where to start on the Internet?
By Chuck McCullough
New to the Internet and struggling to figure out where to start?
Then you might want to consider taking a look at one of the different "instant store" affiliate programs.
These programs allow you to create a fully-stocked, professional looking website in just a few minutes.
These allow you to postpone learning HTML and how to ship and sell products, and instead focus on marketing and promotion.
As you are learning how to drive traffic to your store, you are also potentially making money as they shop through your store.
If you decide to go this route I highly recommend that you get your own domain name and create a professional looking home page that you can use to sign them up for your newsletter, or talk about topics that might interest your visitors.
This also allows you more control over getting better search engine positioning.
Then, after they have joined your newsletter, or read your best pitch, you can send them to your store to shop.
You can even use the same layout as your store uses by pointing to the same graphics and such. This gives your website a consistent look and feel to keep from confusing your visitors.
Plus, once you get good at traffic generation and such, if you decide to sell your own products you can simply remove the store link from your site, but won't lose any of the effort that you have put into promoting it.
