Build Your Own Business Website: An Essential First Stage of Business Development
If you want to really grow a stress management business, or any other kind of business for that matter, you need to have your own business website. Your business website acts like a hub for your marketing, a place you can direct people to - where they can find out about your services or products, where they can download valuable resources, or even where they can purchase your products. Even if you don't have your own products or services, you can use your website to build a profitable affiliate business. Your website knits everything together in your business development and marketing.
There are a number of tools for building business websites out there. One I've used a lot is called Weebly, which is a free tool you can use to make your own website. I've used Weebly for a few years now. I've built personal websites around hobbies, business websites (including this website) and a charity website, for The Marie Trust (a homelessness charity in Glasgow I'm a trustee of). Weebly has been a great tool for all of them. The reasons I started using it and have continued to use it are:
Another is SBI, which stands for 'Site Build It'. I first came across this website building tool many years ago. A great benefit of SBI is that it isn't simply a web development application. SBI teaches you how to really build a web-based business and it explains the process by which you can monetize your site and its content. So it's as much a web-based business educational resource as a web development tool. If you want to really learn while you build your website, SBI is a great choice.

- It's cheap! In fact it's free to use develop websites sites, until you want to have your own domain with Weebly and even then costs very little.
- It works. The sites I've built have worked really well without tech issues and have really helped with marketing my professional and business services.
- It's easy to use. You don't need any tech skills whatsoever, which is just as well as I never had any! It's a simple drag and drop functionality, which has become more powerful over the years. It does everything the vast majority of professional and business users would ever need without fuss.
