My Secret Weapon ... Revealed
My passion is earning me an income - Is yours? Discover my secret weapon ... and see how you can use it too! Hi, my name's Martin.
I hope you're enjoying my table tennis web site because I'm so passionate about this great sport of ours that I want everyone else to enjoy it too. So please let me know if you've enjoyed my web site, or if you've got any table tennis questions that I can help you with. But did you know that anyone with a passion about something now has a fabulous opportunity to share in ...
The Internet Boom Years
Now that the internet has become so popular all around the world, it's just about the easiest, cheapest and fastest way of sharing information between people who have similar interests. Whether they're just around the corner ... or on the other side of the world! And because it's available to all of us right now, and it's so inexpensive to set up your own web site, we can all join in. And when you do it right ... you can also earn an income from it! Just like I do. So if you've got a passion for something that you'd like to share with others and you want to know how to do it (and give your finances a boost at the same time!) ... read on.
Share Your Passion
I don't know if you're the same as me, but I've always been fascinated by other peoples web sites. I don't mean the big corporate ones from companies like Microsoft ... no, I mean the ones that were put together by the average (wo)man in the street. As I read them I always wondered ... Were they successful? Did anybody read them? Did they make any money? How did they do it? Could I build one? Well, the answer to the last question is ... yes, I could build (and have built) a successful web site - all about table tennis. You see, in 2007 I re-discovered something that I first came across several years before, but like so many of us often do - I delayed actually doing anything with it. But now it's what I like to think of as my secret weapon. And by using it, I've been able to build this profitable web site. But even more important than that ... I want you to benefit too. But before I share my secret with you, let's quickly look at ...
How successful have you been in your life?
If you're like me (and thousands of others), you've probably been living your life without a great deal of thought. You get up, go to work, go home, have dinner, spend a couple of hours doing something you really enjoy, go to bed ... and repeat ... Until suddenly ... You realise that years have passed you by and you've never actually got around to doing what YOU really WANT to do. You've settled into a routine. And even though your life's OK, you know that what you really want to do is to live life on your own terms ... but a lack of money is holding you back. Well, that's certainly how it was for me anyway! So I decided I was going to ...
Do something about it
I decided a few years ago that I was going to take some action and well ... do something ... anything. I knew that I wanted to be in control of my own finances and not have to rely on a fixed salary. So I read loads of books and endlessly scoured the internet looking for inspiration. And then I took that all important step ... I actually did something. I decided that I would start a business working from home. Yes. All I had to do now was to persuade my wife that we should start an internet business that we could both run from home. Easy! Well no actually. That was the hard part. The wife wasn't easily persuaded! But in the end my persistence paid off. And in 2007 I started this table tennis web site, whilst my wife - Helen - started hers. So how did I get started? ...
My web site
Well, as I wanted to make money by doing something I'm passionate about, and I've always been passionate about table tennis ... I started this table tennis web site. You see, for the vast majority of web site owners, the reason for putting up a web site is either to distribute information to as many people as quickly as possible at virtually no cost, and/or to make money. Well, I wanted to do both. But whichever camp you fall into, you'll need as many people as possible to find and read your web site if you want to do either of those things successfully. But, how do you do that? Well, there are three ways I know of to attract lots of attention to your web site: pay out lots of money for advertising (not for me!) tell thousands of people your website address (not very likely), or make sure that it appears in the search results of Google, Yahoo and Bing etc whenever someone searches for the topic of your web site on the internet (much more likely)
Well, it was at this point that I re-discovered something I'd come across several years before ... but never taken any further ... and which I now refer to as my secret weapon ...
Site Build It!
So ... Site Build It! (or SBI as it's commonly known). What is it?
Well, in a nutshell, SBI is an all singing, all dancing, software package which helps you to build successful and profitable web sites ... on any subject you like. But the best thing about it is ... you don't need to know any geeky computer stuff in order to use it. So how does it work? Well, SBI helps you to build a web site about a subject you're passionate about, so that it'll be found amongst the top search results in Google, Yahoo and Bing etc, whenever someone searches for the subject of your web site. But ... and this is very important ... they don't use any tricks or deception to do it. They just show you how to build an ethical site that Google and the others will happily rank highly. Indeed, SBI urge you to ... "keep it real". So is there a big secret to SBI? No. SBI follows a very simple strategy that anybody could copy without using their software. But because SBI automates so many things that you would otherwise have to do manually ... and would take you so long to do ... I can't understand why anybody would want to bother to do it manually. I certainly don't. Instead, you can concentrate on writing your web site content and forget about having to learn all the boring technical bits. So let me tell you why I think SBI is so good. Well ...
It's all about your visitors
Did you know that most web sites (and I'm not talking about sites like CNN, BBC or Microsoft etc) only get a handful of visitors every day? But with SBI, you'll be more likely to get hundreds, if not thousands, of visitors every day. You see, SBI helps you to maximise the number of visitors to your web site ... and that puts you in a better position than 99% of all other web site owners. And remember, no visitors = no business. So how does SBI help you to attract lots of visitors?
C-T-P-M
What? C-T-P-M ... that's how they do it. Let me explain ... When you go onto the internet, what do you do? You look for information. You probably go straight to Google and type in a question or a subject that you need some information about. Let's say for example ... table tennis room size. 
And what do you expect to happen next? Well, you expect Google to show you a list of the best web sites with information about what you asked for (in this case table tennis room size). 
So what does that mean for YOU if you're the owner of a web site? Well, if you're building a web site, you'll want it to appear in that list. Preferably on the first page (top 10), but if not, at least on the second page (top 20). Let's face it, how often do you look beyond the first two pages of Google results? The reader then visits your web site to get the information - so you get free traffic and the opportunity to make money. Remember, search engines like Google are the cheapest way of "advertising" your web site because you don't pay them to include your web site in their search results ... they find it and include it because of the great information you provide. So how do you get your web site to appear on those first two pages of Google results? Well, SBI call this process C-T-P-M. And it's really very simple. 
C stands for CONTENT You research and write your information (the CONTENT of your web site) in such a way that Google recognises you as one of the best in your subject and worthy of a top 20 listing
T stands for TRAFFIC Google and the other search engines will then include your site in their top listings which means that you'll attract lots of visitors for free (targeted TRAFFIC) to your web site
P stands for PRESELL Your visitors read and love your excellent information (you PRESELL) which means they'll treat you as a knowledgeable friend/expert who offers the best recommendations and products, and then ...
M stands for MONETIZE Your visitors generate an income for you (MONETIZE) through a variety of methods. For example, they buy your products or services, click on your Google ads, generate finder's fees or click on affiliate links, etc.
But before you get too carried away, let's remember ... this is still a business. And businesses don't happen without any effort on your part.
Let's deal with reality
Of course, although SBI will guide you along the right path, it can't write your web site for you. (Although you could pay someone to do that!) However, what it will do, is teach you how to choose a good subject matter for a web site and assess the likelihood of success. After all, there's no point writing about a subject that no one is interested in reading about! Because ... and let's not forget the bottom line ... if your web site doesn't have enough visitors, not enough people will see your information and recommendations, you'll have wasted your time & effort, and you won't earn any income from it. So ...
Is SBI right for you?
Well, SBI is right for anyone who wants to build a successful web business and accepts the reality of life - You won't achieve success in any venture without some effort on your part. So, if you want to build a successful web business, and you're prepared to put in some effort, all you really need to make SBI work for you is a good knowledge about the subject matter of your web site, and the determination to succeed. It doesn't matter whether you want to build a web site about aardvarks, babies, churches, dentists ... or any other subject you can imagine ... you can do it all with SBI. As they say at SBI ... all you need is BAM (Brain and Motivation). So it's important to know right from the start that ... SBI is NOT ... a get-rich-quick (GRQ) system, nor a system that requires no effort, nor a system which will do all the work for you
So if that's what you're looking for ... well, you're in the wrong place! But what it DOES do is show you the right way to build a successful web business. SBI allows you to concentrate on the subject matter (the Content) of your web site, not the boring technical bits. So this means that you never HAVE to learn geeky things like HTML code, unless you really want to. OK, let's cut to the chase ...
What do you get and how much does it cost?
Well, after you sign up for SBI, there's going to be a lot to learn. But they believe in the way of the tortoise ... slow and steady wins the race!
After all, you don't build a business in a day. They provide you with a login name and password so that you can access, via the internet, their software package. This means that you don't have to work from home. You can login from any computer with an internet connection, anywhere in the world! There's a comprehensive and really easy to use Action Guide (both a written version and a video version) which teaches you everything you need to know. And because it's regularly updated with all the latest information you need, this means that you won't need anything else in order to build your web business. If you run into any problems, there's a wonderful help system. You can either ask other SBI users or ask the techie people at SBI to help you. But, like any good system, once you delve a little deeper you realise that SBI is like a swan ... serene on top but paddling away furiously underneath doing all the boring bits for you. The cost of SBI is $299 per year. This includes everything you need to build a successful web site ... BUT ... if you really need to, you can buy additional extras which expand the capabilities of SBI, although they are not necessary for most people. For example, a "shopping cart" is NOT included, but many people don't actually need one. There are so many ways of making money from your web site without actually having a shopping cart. Your SBI package includes: a "Domain Name", i.e. the name of your web site, plus "Hosting", i.e. the SBI computer which stores your web site and makes it available to anybody using the internet, plus "Unlimited bandwidth", i.e. the cost of passing your web site around the internet, plus a (constantly updated) software package and step-by-step action guide and ... soooooo much more
You can use SBI to create multiple web sites, but each web site requires its own copy of SBI at $299 per year. Believe me, this is such good value. No other package gives you so much for so little. Let me share another important fact with you ...
Proven success
SBI has a proven track record of success ... and I haven't seen any other company which provides this type of, or indeed any, evidence of success like SBI do. So my final question to you is ... How did you find this web site? I don't "advertise" it anywhere. Most people find me by using Google to search for information about table tennis. I get hundreds of visitors a day, and the number is growing every month. And remember, I only started in the second half of 2007 writing one page a week. I've talked to so many people who either wanted to have their own web site, or those who've already managed to build one, but soon realised that no-one was reading it because it didn't appear in Google's search results. So all I will say is ... SBI worked for me. And I think it'll work for you too.
Finally, let me share with you my ...
One final thought
Wherever you are, and whatever year it is, remember this: When is the best time to start an internet business? 5 years ago ... When is the second best time to start? Right now! So whether you know a lot or a little about the internet and how to set up an internet web site and business ... take a look at this SBI video and then sign up today - you won't regret it.
