How much do you
really need or want to know about building a website?
You should consider which is
more important, making money online, or knowing how to build a
website.
Each day millions of
Americans drive their car to work. Very few could tell you
how or why the car works, other than the key starts it and
that it needs gas. Still, millions of cars are used each day
and successfully get their passengers from point A to point B.
The same is true of websites. Programs
such as pageBuzz make building a website as simple as inserting
the key and starting it up. By keeping it simple, the
average person can build and manage a successful online business.
So how much time do you want
to spend learning about the web?
If you do not plan on being a
webmaster, then any time learning HTML, JAVA, PHP, SQL and so on...
is just wasted. The truth is, you could spend a lifetime learning
programing, design and operating system technology. But your
website may only need a few lines of code to operate.
Just as a local mechanic would
not learn how to manufacture tires just to install them, you do
not need to learn how to write C# code and compile binary files
to run them on your website.
Different Website
Hosting Models
90% of the web hosting
solutions offer a blank web folder and a bunch of junk like c-pannel,
PHP, SQL databases and other functions that make no sense to the
average person. To build websites on those hosting platforms, you
need to know everything from html to programming.
pageBuzz on the other hand,
offers none of that. It limits you to simple easy interfaces. It
does not allow you to upload and run programs, or have direct FTP
access to folders.
On the outside, that may seem
too restrictive and less useful than the other systems. But that
is not true. Just as you start your car with the key, you would
not want to hire a room full of programmers to start your website.
Is your car any less useful
because someone else built it for you? Or is it more efficient
because it was made by a company that makes million of cars each
year?
No Different than
Riding a Bike or Driving a Car
Customers like walking into a
car dealer, signing some papers and driving home.
It is so much easier than
building the entire car from scratch. How long would that take?
pageBuzz users enjoy the same
ease and functionality. As soon as the site is set up, usually in
a few minutes, you have a fully functional shopping cart and
payment system. Anyone can type in your domain name and go to
your pages.
It is that simple!
You do not need to write
programs or learn complicated coding. Of course you will still
need to build some pages, add your inventory and choose a design
theme. But within a few hours your website can be up and selling
products.
If you use a standard
open shared hosting system, you would probably spend that
much time just learning what FTP is, finding a software
program and learning how to use it.
Then you will need a
page editor, graphics program, software for any shopping you
plan to run and about 20 more things that will make your head
spin.
So systems such as pageBuzz,
do offer the web building novice a great solution. They also
offer you programing that has been coded by professional
programmers with years of experience. Programs that are free to
use rather than paying thousands of dollars to get them installed
in your website.
Do you really want to
learn how to build a car to drive it? Do you really want to learn
computer programing to drive a website to success?
You don't Need Any
Experience to Build Websites Today
Today websites are as common
as telephones. Every business has one, is working on one or at
least knows that they need one.
And because of the high demand
or websites that are easy to use, the big companies have created
easy to use tools to build them.
While once websites were only
possible through educated webmasters now anyone can build
websites using ready made building blocks. What took webmasters
hours to do in the past now can be done with simple point and
click interfaces.
Using the most up to date
tools like the pageBuzz Drag and Drop Webpage Editor, users can create websites as easily as they can
type emails. Dragging images into place and creating the layout
and feel they want from the pages.
The new drag and drop
technology has made professional webmasters out of ordinary
people.
As technology changes so do
the tools we use to build websites.
At one time, pages were made
from text editors using html tags and now we have WYSIWYG editors
that make more complicated and advanced pages possible.
But at pageBuzz we have
simplified the process so users don't really have to know anymore
than what they actually want on the pages.
Now for some people, that can
be 90% of the battle and they can't get past the fact that they
have no idea what to write about their business. But if they do
know what they want to say, it is as easy as opening their mouth
and talking about it.
No Excuses
With tools like the pageBuzz
website Builder there is really no excuse for not having a
website. Anyone can do it just like anyone can drive a car.
Sure, when you are 16 and
learning to drive it seems like a big deal. But once you get the
hang of it, it is just something you do each day to get to work.
Websites are the same. It
might be a little painful in the beginning. You might be a little
nervous and sweaty, but relax. It really is that easy and it is
that important.
So you don't have to learn any
programming, read any books or even go to school. Anyone can
build a website in minutes using simple online tools a little
patience.
People Are
Experienced
In 1995 when I started people
did not really use computers much and did not understand the
interment. But today they live online almost as much as they
spend offline.
People are familiar with ebay
and facebook and updating pages, sharing photos and using
computers in general.
In 2004 we spent most of our
support time teaching people how to find photos in their
computers, today they are experts and usually know more than we
do.
So using the tools we created
is not hard at all. In fact, they are modeled after all the tools
people use on sites like ebay and facebook. So users already know
how to use them.
The scope of our support has
changed dramatically of the years and now we can help with page
design and graphics rather than trying to get people to navigate
the MY Pictures folder on their home computer.
This has made the pages better
and we have been able to create more advanced tools for users
since they know more than they did 15 years ago.
Building websites today is as
easy as updating a facebook page or sending an email. People are
so used to technology it is just part of what we do and not some
complicated lines of code as it once use to be.
Every One is Doing
It!
Every company has copied our
business model and now that have online site builders rather than
open hosting. While the open hosting model is still the most
popular it is only a matter of time before people are almost
completely bound to online sitebuilders.
Webmasters are OUT
and Site Builders are IN
The once needed webmasters are
slowly being phased out as more and more people manage their own
websites. While there is still a need for webmasters because
business owners don't have time, the advantage of sitebuilders
for business owners is that webmasters can be paid $10 an hour
instead of $35-$50 that they were getting years ago.
It is actually better for the
webmaster industry because the educated and experienced design
webmasters can do so much more and not have to compete with the
basic data entry webmasters that only have to execute daily
website updates.
And it is all because of the
changes in technology and websites like pageBuzz.com that make it
simple and easy for anyone to build a website.
While pageBuzz was one of the
first in the "Do it yourself" website market, big
companies like Godaddy, Quickbooks, Web.com and 1and1.com have
learned what we knew all along. The site builder market is huge
and growing bigger every day.
Today, people want to
build their own website and not have to depend on webmasters to
do it for them.
