Love to travel? Set up your own travel web site

Work from home, second income retirees, or websites for realtors, business, stay at home moms & dads

If you think you'd like your own travel web site, I've found a great resource for turning your knowledge of a favorite travel vacation spot or local area into a travel web site that generates an income. And a 'travel' site doesn't necessarily mean exotic locations far from your home. Your home town IS exotic to travellers in foreign lands!

I often post pictures of Mississauga on Snapshot-Travel-blog and get visitors from around the world, who want to have a look at my home town! I took this photo of rhododendrons in a city park across from my home. It's not the most exciting thing in the world to photograph, but it gives you an idea of the place I call home. So go out and look at your home through the eyes of a traveller: I bet you see all kinds of interesting places to write about.

Hadn't thought about having a web site of your own?

Give it some thought, then come back and find out more, through the links on these pages. Perhaps you are ready to retire, or already a retiree and looking for a second income and a new focus, or you know someone who is. Read information for retirees. Are you a realtor who wants to advertise listings and sales? Then have a look at the information for realtors. It's the ideal work from home business, which is great for stay-at-home moms and dads, too, and it seems to work like magic! Even if you know know nothing about web sites, this web builder and customer forum support will teach you how. It's like getting a bonus college course in website building and marketting included with your domain name and hosting.

Show me how now!

Pop over and take a fast video tour to see if this is an option you'd to pursue. I've used many of their tools, and they've got great support forums. To me, this is the biggest bang for your website buck. And if you have any questions, then go to Ask a Question. How cool is that? And it works for all kinds of businesses -- not just web sites and web businesses. There's even a free trial, AND you can use their web builder OR any other website building software, such as Dreamweaver, to build your site.

Do you have a store, selling an actual product?

Make effective use of the internet to grow your business. Learn how! Through the user forums, I 'met' an lady who wanted to set up a web site to advertise and showcase her bricks and mortar store. Imagine her surprise and delight when, within 6 months, her website (that she built herself, with no previous website knowledge) had not only increased her core store business but also began generating an income of its own! She is an inspiration to everyone.

I already have a website - Can I move it?

Short answer -- no. But maybe. Here's why. Think of wedding gowns, for example, as if they were a webiste. If you want a silk wedding gown, but you've aleady started sewing a cotton wedding gown, it's hard to change fabrics mid-gown. It would be best if you start sewing with silk from the beginning. So it is with website builders. I built Snapshot Journeys before I knew about this company, and it is hard to retrofit this web site into what it optimally should be to get the full benefit using their service.

I still may convert Snapshot Journeys, but it would mean redong each page (several hundred pages!) one at a time, a lot of work, and I would still not be getting the full benefit. Meanwhile, I am researching other travel site ideas. I really want to build a new one using this company, and its builder and most importantly, for its marketing expertise as well as the step by step coaching through the techinical areas of actuall web site builidng. There are millions of web sites, but many are simply ineffective.

I don't want to build a web site - Can you do it?

Maybe buiilding your own website is the furthest thing from your mind -- you have a core business to run, you have zero interest in technical stuff, or you are an artist and need to keep producing, not laying out pages on a web site. Not to worry - you can have an expert in this method Build It for You - see how, or call them for infornation, talk with a real person!

I have a website - can I be an affiliate?

Yes -- go to Become an Affiliate and decide if this is for you. I am an affilliate, and get the benefit of the affiliate and other forums. It's a great resource especially for those of us who work from home. It's nice to have contact with others who are doing the same work, in the same circumstances. Have a look, and let me know how you go. And if you decide to buy a website, bookmark this page so you can place your order.

Never thought of having your own web business?

Give it some thought right now. Think for a minute about what you know no matter what your occupation.

Accountants, bookkeepers, office managers all have extensive knowledge about their field, knowledge that they can share with newbies and small business owners. How to set up a small business, spreadsheets and data bases, tax filing info and tips, how to name a business and how to set up a business plan -- all areas that seem simple to you but can be baffling to new business owners.

Have a hobby or interest that you are passionate about? Gardening, model airplanes, sky diving, scuba diving, self improvement, fitness, walking and hiking, photography, sewing, knitting, weaving -- the list is endless. Turn YOUR passion into a web-based business and help others too!
