When you make your living on the Internet, you sometimes
forget that the resources you use every day (and take for
granted) might rate an incredible discovery to anyone who
doesn’t already know they exist.
Whether they help you make money, save time, save money, or
avoid frustration, these ecommerce tools and services rate
my highest recommendation for anyone who conducts any form
of ecommerce online.
ClickBank.com -
If you sell a downloadable product such as an ebook, report,
or software, you can’t beat ClickBank for processing credit
card payments. Not only do they take the payments and send
you a check twice a month, they also plug your product into
an existing network with tens-of-thousands of affiliates who
can sell it for you. Also, unlike a traditional merchant
credit card processing account, ClickBank assumes all the
fraud risk and prevents many of the “horror” stories you
hear in connection with online credit card processing.
MySiteSales.com -
Since ClickBank only allows the sale of downloadable
products, MySiteSales.com comes to the rescue for anyone
selling a physical product or service. Offering a suite of
integrated product catalogs, follow up autoresponders,
advertising tracking, a secure server, and even limited-time
coupon offers, this tool rates a “must have” for setting up
and integrating a professional ecommerce solution on
virtually any size website.
Aweber.com -
If you need an unlimited number of follow up autoresponders
and the ability to send an email “broadcast” to all your
contacts at one time, Aweber offers an excellent managed
solution. Specializing in helping small to medium-sized Web
businesses implement an effective email follow-up strategy
without complicated software, Aweber gets our highest marks
for service and dependability.
GoDaddy.com -
Cheap, reliable, easy-to-use domain name registrar that only
charges $8.95 per year for each domain name you register.
Godaddy rates cheaper and just as, if not more, reliable
than any other domain registrar. They also offer a “private
registration” option that allows you to keep your identity
as the domain owner a secret from unscrupulous people who
exploit domain name records to compile mailing lists, spam
databases or worse.
FrontierPowerHosting.com -
Any successful ecommerce endeavor begins with a solid
website hosting service. Nothing shuts you down faster than
an unreliable web host because, the second they go offline,
your business goes offline. I host one of my servers at
FrontierPowerHosting.com because of great customer service
and guaranteed up-time.
ClipArt.com -
Ever pulled your hair out searching for that perfect image,
photo, or piece of clipart for your website? Once you
exhaust the Microsoft collection on your computer, the next
stop (if you want to find something fast) is Clipart.com.
With thousands of images searchable by keyword, you can
always find the perfect image in less time and without the
worries of copyright infringement if you just pull something
off the Web.
Google.com/Adsense/ -
Website got traffic but no making much money? Open a free
account with Google AdSense and earn a commission any time
someone clicks on any of the targeted ads. An excellent way
to earn extra cash on virtually any website.
