An Unbiased SiteBuildIt Review...

I've long been a supporter of Ken Envoy's SiteBuildIt. Ken Envoy is a brilliant marketer and seems to have created a program that offers a LOT of amazing tools for online marketers.

But the simple fact of the matter is, despite the affiliate link above and at the end of this article, I've never used the program. Yes. I ready Ken Envoy's incredible marketing tips. By studying other SiteBuildIt websites, I've learned how to create webpages that rank high on search engines. But since I never used the program, I can't whole-heartedly support the program (consequently have earned few sales from this affiliate).

So I was really excited when I met Dave Jackson from the Musician's Cyber Cooler. He told me he was using SiteBuildIt. So with a slight hidden agenda (an unbiased review of SiteBuildIt), I asked him what he thought of the program. This is what he sent back to me (and approved me to post it)

I like it. They do keep up with submitting sites to search engines. I think they're up to 300 or 400 bones now. If you're looking to do some basic programming, then it's great.

If you have a detailed page with graphics, headings, and such it can get a little weird. Each item is a "box" so Box on is "heading" I tell it to make it a type three. Then the next box is "text" so I type in the story. Then the next "box" is a line break.

In the end, I ended up learning more basic html () for formatting cause you ended up a page with literally 57 boxes. If you're looking to add things like cgi scripts and such, you're out of luck. So having 100% freedom to do everything you want is just not there. So again, "basic" web site is great.

A few of my pages are ranking pretty high, and I really LOVE their tool that helps you pick key words, so I would say I'm "Satisfied" but not over the top (especially when you can get web hosting for 36 bucks a year, and an email list for 5 bucks a month if not less). I was REALLY into tracking what people clicked on (feedback for the newsletter). I'm not sure its worth that price, but I'm not switching at this point. On another point, I could probably spend more time promoting my site.

Well, there you have it.

DON'T know much about building a website? It's great!
DO know something about webdesign? Satisfactory.

As for me, it's still an expensive product. $300 a year for a guerrilla marketer IS something to sneeze.

But I do know, I will be sneezing sometime soon. Sometimes simple websites are the most-profitable, and I have a few sites in mind just for that purpose.

Don't take my word or even Dave's word though. Check out Ken Envoy's SiteBuildIt yourself. See the list of services. It's pretty impressive. That's why I continue to read Ken's newsletter and wait patiently until I've the money to give it a try.

Slainte!
