My TOP Recommendations
I have utilized many products and services that make my life infinitely easier. These are the top 5 that you should know about. I’m confident that they’ll make your journey just as easy.
Please understand that I have experience with all of these companies that I recommend and some links are affiliate links where I may or may not make a commission, with no increased cost to you. My recommendation is based upon the helpfulness of these companies as opposed to the tiny commissions that I make if you decide to move forward with their services. Please do not spend any of your money on these services unless you feel that you’ll need them and/or that they’ll assist you in achieving your goals.
Joshua Smith
I host most of my websites on Flywheel, including this one. Why? Because I’ve had troubles with other top competitors in the website hosting space. But not with these guys. And when you’re depending on website reliability, you can’t afford to mess around. I once accidentally deleted my entire blog here, and these guys luckily had several automated backups. Super win! Even if you’re building an Australian website, you can still use Flywheel Hosting as they have a Sydney-based data centre.
I own numerous Australian domain names and I recommend using local hosting providers. Unfortunately, very few have a solid game-plan. Netregistry is one strong contendor, but I find GoDaddy to be the most competitive, reliable and easiest to use. I’ve been with them since 2011. Their hosting packages aren’t too bad either.
To create my online businesses, I didn’t do everything myself and don’t recommend that you do either. I hire people from time to time, from 10 minute jobs to ones that take a couple of days. From website design, to graphic design and video creation, I find that UpWork gives me the most diverse and reliable group of contractors starting from just $5/hr.
When I started out online, budget was an issue when finding quality graphic designers and Fiverr became my favorite tool in the shed. I was able to find hundreds of people who would happily create eBook covers for $5. Look at the book cover below of Fulltime Nomad. Yep, that cost me just $5.
There is no greater investment into your online business than your mindset. Moving from either an employee mindset or traditional small business owner can be challenging, so I feel it’s important to begin with an entrepreneurs mindset. Shane and Jess Fozard are a couple I recommend to many.
Amazon provides a free profit estimator for those seeking to evaluate their fees and expected margins. ProfitGuru takes it a step further, and their free version allows up to 200 searches per month. Their paid version doesn’t cost a fortune either.
Books and Reports
I have written numerous books and reports assisting those who desire to create an online business offering a product or service that they’re passionate about.
