How does an internet business compete with the giants who have been in place for ten years and dump thousands upon thousands of dollars into their sites?
If I said 'that's easy, here's how you do it', I would be telling you wrong. It's not easy and it never will be. I can tell you one prime ingredient, persistence.
1: know your product/service well.
2. Integrity, if your business doesn't have it, your visitors will know it, and word of mouth will ruin a business.
Some advice:
Read and learn from those in your industry who have made it. Learn from their mistakes as well as their golden moments. No successful site will openly admit their failures on line, which I think we should, for the benefit of those coming up after us. Let's face it, we learn from our mistakes and failures in business as well as life, we don't learn from success, except maybe to improve on what we know already works. As a self taught business person in a very competitive industry, my advice is to continue to learn. Do whatever research and reading available about winning in the internet business jungle, and be patient, unless you dump mucho dineros into your site, know this, you will only get out of your business site what you put into it. I guess it really comes down to how you look at internet business. We can make it better by keeping to ethical business values or allow it to be trashed up and in bad shape for our successors. Sound just like life, huh?
