Making a cool Business web site: Five great IDeas
Doing business over the web has many advantages. First of all you have got a round the clock business. Secondly your business is no longer confined by your location. But what I consider the greatest thing of all is the freedom you enjoy. You can work and earn from the coolness of your home. No superiors, nobody to ask you questions: a really free bird you are. In this article I will try to introduce the concepts of five kinds of websites you can easily design. The Ideas are so general that anybody can adapt it to your taste and improvise. Your creative talents and imagination can implement these ideas with an unlimited number of variations, giving you a wide range of opportunities. I do not discuss techniques of generating traffic and building an income from these sites. That will be told separately.
1.Place or location sites
Tourists all over the world are eager to get up-to-date information on places they want to visit. People of a place are generally anxious to know about things happening around them. So if you can make a site on a particular location, your neighbourhood or a place nearby or even a distant place likes London it will be a good idea. Only thing is that you should search for and find useful information which is not available elsewhere. Generally such sites have a static part and a dynamic part .Static part deals with content that change slowly, while dynamic part deals with events and even creative thoughts that are updated frequently . Using a good combination of both can help you win the hearts of many. We discuss place sites in a separate article
2. Fan sites: Sites centred on great personalities is attracting many people. The main advantage of these types of sites is that you do not have to go out for information. A good search on internet will often result in thousands of sites about the personality. Then what is your job? You have to arrange the information in your own way that people find the content you provide more interesting and well organised. Also you can interpret the facts in your own way and arrive at interesting conclusions. If the person is alive options are much more wider and a little research may make your site unique. Again the many ways of generating income from a fan site will be discussed separately.
3. Theme sites: These are more general than the first two. Here we concentrate on a particular theme and build a site around it. The theme can be anything, like chess or fashion or movies or anything imaginable. You can provide interesting facts about the subject, History of the theme, current status, interviews, controversies and what not!! As I have mentioned earlier this is a place you can display your ingenuity and original thinking.
4. Trade sites:
Trading has a long history. Everybody wants to buy or sell something. This is the relevance of trade sites. These sites provide a global market place for buyers and sellers. You can choose any type of item to sell and allow people to add items to your site. This will be initially free but later a fee may be imposed. Trade site can be constructed in a variety of ways, and closely related are matrimonial and job sites. Again the options are limited only by your imagination.
5. Community sites.
Often people of a community or institution or company ,want a common place to interact and exchange ideas. Also there may be many people and institutions who constantly interact with this community. The official website of the community will have always limitations. Imagine the barber nearer to your company trying to interact with the employees through the official website. So an unofficial website of the community have high potential of attracting viewers from and outside the community. Selling and buying inside the group is also a possibility. Again possibilities and variations are endless.
In this short exposure I have tried to identify five areas where you can build a website with minimal expertise. Your comments on these topics are always welcome. Also if you want help or consultancy in building a profitable web business feel free to contact me.
