SEO For The Common Webmaster

Shortly after posting my last post I received an interesting email from one of my regular readers. He said that he has not only used the Boss Cart software, he also has a host provider who provides it as part of his UK Web Hosting. He sent me a link so I checked out this hosting company.

The hosting company is Velnet Web. They offer several packages from basic shared hosting to full Ecommerce eShop UK plan. The ecommerce plan offers many features that I am looking for and included the software that I have decided to use. The plan comes with a full year of hosting and even includes the domain name. It is a ready made set up site ready for me to just plug in my own products.

I love to play around with website designing and set up but it is nice to have a site ready to go when I have the product set and ready. Time is money and anything that can be done for you is both a money and time saver. I was however a little worried about the fact that I would not be able to have some creativity with my own shop. Being that it was all set up by the hosting company.

I did a little research and found that they do set up the sites but they also offer a Free Editable Website. They will customize the original site for you and then you have an admin panel, not much different than Word Press, which allows you to edit the page and add or take away features with ease. There are no programming or special skills needed. In fact, you do not even to know HTML. The page is created by the popular CMS software Joomla.

Velnet offers a great package for anyone to jump into the online commerce world and succeed. As soon as I get the agreement worked out for my products, I am hoping to get my new shop up and running.

Blogging is an Online field that is easy to break into and can be set-up and running in next to no time. I have been blogging for a while now and find it quite enjoyable. However, I am looking to expand my online business by stepping into the world of ecommerce.

One of the big things I have been looking at is Ecommerce Shopping Cart software. There are so many out there that it is hard to decide on one that does it all. Boss Cart is one that I found that offers the many features I am looking for. This software offers an easy to set up eshop that can be customized to fit your needs and the products you are selling.

I have asked around and talked to other webmasters and many of them recommend Boss Cart as one of the best eShop commerce software. I have lots of experience with websites and blogs but not much in the way of setting up my own store. Their software makes it easy with a built in catalogue manager. They even offer free install onto my server so I have help setting it up but still maintain full control by having it hosted on my own hosting provider.

On top of the great features, they offer a wide array of Free ecommerce templates. This saves both time and expense. With many other similar types of software, the owner needs to have their own template. This can be quite expensive to hire a designer to design one. Boss Cart has this all ready made for you so there is no need to hire a designer.

The thing I love most about this software is that it comes with both email and phone support. Many only offer email support and sometimes it is a pain to explain a problem over email. Phone support allows you to get quick help and diagnose the problem to avoid downtime of the store.

I am planning to try this out since it comes with a 30 day money back guarantee. If any of you have tried Boss Cart, please leave a comment and let me know what you think.

One of the best ways for webmasters to network with other webmasters is to visit good forums to help build relationships and exchange services. Webmaster Forums UK is one place where I like to visit and meet with others who could use my services.

I use these forums to keep up with the latest trends, find web designers, and to Buy Sell Website. As most webmasters know, the more you think you know about promotions and SEO, the more you have to learn. Webmaster forums allow you to share your knowledge and skills while learning new techniques for making your blog or website the best it can be.

There are so many other things that can be learned on a Webmaster forum. If you visit the Web Hosting Forum, you could find multiple deals for great hosting products that are much cheaper than if you were to try to find them by searching Google. From reseller to dedicated servers, I have found tons of deals when looking for a new hosting company.

Webmaster forums allow you to showcase your talent to thousands of other webmasters for free. If you were to try and advertise your services through other means, you could end up eating all your profits. I use Webmaster forums to sell my writing services and I have made a nice second income and built some long term business relationships. Without the forums I visit, business would be quite slow and I would have to spend a lot of my time just trying to find clients.

I am not saying that you have to offer a service or even be in the market for one. Webmaster Forums are primarily there to allow a place for like minded people to express opinions, share knowledge, and form business and personal relationships. From mere beginners to life long webmasters, you will find it all on a good Webmaster forum. I thought I knew a lot until I signed up for the different Webmaster forums that I use. My knowledge base has expanded and I seem to learn something everyday.

If you are serious about blogging or building a quality website, you really need to be part of a community by joining a good Webmaster forum.

I have a few good friends who work and live in the Toronto area of Canada. They are always telling me that the city is big on recycling electronics. Toronto electronics recycling has fast become a huge industry with the constant changing of technology. It is becoming harder to harder for bigger companies to dispose of all that old equipment.

There is one good company that I have researched called ADL Process. They handle computer disposal in Toronto. They take computers and other forms of electronics and recycle them. They handle the whole process for companies so that the products are disposed of in a way that is environmentally safe.

This company should be an example to all of us webmasters who thrive on the newest greatest technological device. As we upgrade, expand, switch phones, and other activities that involve replacing old with new, we need to take the time to consider what we are doing with the old products. Are we recycling and disposing of them in the proper manner?

It is everyone’s job to prevent these materials from making it to the landfill. I challenge my many readers and webmasters everywhere to think carefully when disposing of your products and if you are in the Toronto area, be sure to contact ADL for proper procedures. If not, you may be able to find a similar company right in your own city.
