Save your time, money and frustration with our guide to recommended products...

You don't have to spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars to find all the 'best-in-class' products for your web business...they're all described briefly below to prevent you making the same (often costly) mistakes that we made.

To see our top recommendations, just click on the link below for the section that interests you, or scroll down to take a look at them all.

Some of the products appear more than once because they're arranged to match the sections of our web site, so if you know where you read about something, you can see a brief reminder about it here. For a fuller description, please see the relevant section of the web site.

As 'Site Build It!' appears several times below, we've created an additional page on this site to help you decide if it's right for you - click on the following link for the extra details - Complete Site Build It! Reference Centre.

I've also included a few great products that aren't mentioned in the rest of the web site yet, (as I'll be adding new pages as and when I get the chance), including a very good series of free email courses on a variety of 'small business' topics.

All of these products are used by us personally and have solid money-back guarantees, which I know you won't need, but if you're anything like me, that's still re-assuring!

If you have any questions about any of these products, email me here and (providing they're not too technical ;-), I'll do my level best to answer them.


Starting a Small Business

Product Link Brief Description
Site Build It! If you can type, point and click, you can build a successful web business with no technical knowledge whatsoever. It automatically builds your web pages, checks that they have the best chance of high ranking positions in search engines, submits them to search engines and a whole lot more... As an example, this web site was created using this product.
EZ WebBusinessBuilder I've recently been using this new software from JDD Publishing. I like it a lot! Whether you're just exploring the idea of having your own profitable web site, or already have a web site that needs a turbo-boost, it has all the answers. This simple-to-use, interactive piece of software shows you everything you need to do, all at your own pace.

Whilst it doesn't have all the functionality that SBI! (above) has built-in, you couldn't expect it to as, at the time of writing, it's around $200 cheaper! There's a limited-time discount available at the moment, so check it out as soon as you can.

The Business Professional Private Member's Site I've been working with Terry Telford, the owner of 'The Business Professional', to get a special discount deal for our visitors.

This private member's site is a complete education in internet marketing, with new content added monthly to keep you up-to-date with new developments. There's a 30-day full-refund guarantee and you can purchase directly through our own site, here at Small-Business-on-the-Net.

Essential web site marketing resources, software, tips, tricks and techniques to prosper online.

Make Your Site Sell! Another e-book from the highly-regarded 'Ken Evoy' range that is widely accepted as being the 'bible' of internet selling. This is the reference work on this subject that I still refer to constantly. We doubled the conversion rate of visitors to purchasers on a section of our oil paintings web site by following the advice in this book! Most people, including me, think it would be great value at ten times the price.
Internet X-Factor A great ebook by Terry Dean, one of my favourite internet marketers. If you're interested in how he set up his one-man web business to take $33,245 in 72 hours, and want to learn how you can do the same, this ebook is for you!
(I like it so much, I bought the resell rights, so it's available on this web site for you.)
Make Your Words Sell! This e-book builds on the information in "Make Your Site Sell!" about writing persuasive, powerful copy specifically for the internet, that encourages your visitors to act.
Instant Sales Letters A great product by Yanik Silver. If you don't have the time at the moment to teach yourself copywriting, give 'Instant Sales Letters' a try.
