Anguilla is a somewhat deserted place – it caters to people who want to get away from hustle and bustle. It also caters to people who look for luxury vacations.

So there’s not much to do on Anguilla – and that’s why it was so cool to be there.

We simply stayed around the pool (or in it) with a few drinks and had some great laughs, or we went together to a restaurant and spent the evening chatting about life as an online business owner, how we hate Pandas or how to A/B split test which rum punch tastes better.

And escaping from cold Europe or US and jumping into a Caribbean ocean with SBI friends is also something to remember…

Of course, we also had the honor of meeting Ken Evoy, listen to his thoughts on dealing with Panda and what the future of Internet is likely to be.

The BBQ at Ken’s place on Saturday was the pinnacle of the Anguilla conference.

The food was great and the excitement was almost palpable as so many people met Ken for the first time and had to chance to chat with him and Janice and express how much it means to all of us that they put so much effort in helping us succeed.

The conference presenters did a fantastic job of preparing their material and presenting it in a clear and concise way – although Antoinette’s A/B and Multivariate testing presentation caused some brain cells to overheat at some points… (Could someone please send me a pic of Antoinette presenting? Thanks)

Each presentation included some golden nugget of information which will change how I approach certain areas of an online business like preselling better, building more credibility, being more effective, knowing how to split test Adsense and much more.

The full conference agenda can be found on the SBI Conferences website…

Kudos to Kim and Tom for organizing the conference and making it run smoothly from start to finish.

If you’ve never been to an SBI conference before, I can’t really explain what you’re missing. You have to experience it.

It’s not just about the knowledge the presenters share (for free), it’s the feeling of meeting people who are on the same wavelength and on the same journey towards freedom that really deeply connects you with everyone you meet at the conference.

You know that when you sit behind your laptop and build those darn links again that so many of your friends are doing the same battling their way towards freedom and independence – and this gives you that extra motivation and energy that eventually helps you succeed.

The 2012 SBI Conferences have been announced too – end of April or first part of May in New York City, May 25-27 in Rome and September in San Francisco.

You’ve got to do at least one – and see how that accelerates your journey towards freedom.

My offer to you regarding Site Build It is the same as I give it to my friends when I show them how I live and work with my home based online business.

I offer to help them out if they buy through my link.

If you decide to buy SBI through my affiliate link, I will:

1. Help you out especially in the beginning phase when you have to decide for the right niche and keywords.

I believe I now have enough experience (I’ve made some mistakes and made some things right) to judge with good probability whether your niche will bring you more than 1000 visitors per day.

This of course depends on assessing the competition which is almost impossible to do if you don’t have the experience of building 5 or 6 sites.

2. Answer your questions later if you get stuck somewhere.

Although 90% of your questions can be answered in Sitesell forums and also on this blog, feel free to email me or chat through Skype or Gmail.

I have made a mistake before where I answered lots of questions to someone who eventually did NOT buy SBI through my link.

Altough I like to help people out and do something good for my karma , I do need to protect myself from people who only take and don’t give back.

3. I will link to you.

Once your site has 50 pages, I will put a 1-way in-content link on one of my related websites which will help you a lot with your rankings.

Note that if you have at any point have already been a customer of Sitesell, you cannot sign up under me. You are permanently assigned to your first affiliate.

If you decide to take my offer (and you were never a Sitesell customer), then there’s only one 100% foolproof way to do it: with the Remote Order page where I enter your details when I am logged into my account.

You’ll have to provide me with your credit card details and I’ll complete the whole payment process. This is the only foolproof system that your sale gets credited to me and that now I owe you.

The smartest and most efficient way of moving forward in any learning process, is to surround yourself with people who have had success in whatever it is you are trying to learn.

For learning SBI!, that would be Tomaz.

You can of course  clear the cookies from your browser and follow one of the links on this blog (or click on the video) to Sitesell.com and head straight to the order page – BUT it is possible that you have a permanent cookie from another affiliate and that my cookie will not override it.

This happens quite often – you have about 50% chance. I leave it up to you.

Or, if you have some questions, Skype me!

And if you already own a Site Build It site, then I’ll answer your questions in return for a good, related, in-content link.

If the cost seems too much, then you’ve just gotten a lucky break!

In case you’re not aware, Sitesell.com has a special promotion every Christmas which lasts for about a week and in that time you can buy 2 SBI! subscriptions for the price of one.

This 2-for-1 special is available only once per year… Except this year!

Sitesell.com has been rapidly getting more and more Facebook fans and they’re just about to cross 10,000 “Likes”!

When they do, they will offer this same 2-for-1 special offer which will last only 72 hours.

So how can you best benefit from this offer?

1. Buy 2 SBI! Sites for $299, start your first one and you can activate your second one the latest 9 months from now. It’s about ideal time to start another site as it’s quite unlikely that you can achieve financial freedom with a single website.

2. Split the price with a friend or a family member – each of you pays around $150 for your SBI! 2.0 site which is a total bargain once you realize the amount of information and the collection of tools you get for this price.

In both cases, consider my offer. Not only you’ll get Site Build It! 2.0 for half the price, you’ll also get free coaching.

3. If you’re an SBI-er already, you can also buy 2 SBI sites for the price of one. I’d would suggest this if you’re serious about becoming financially free and you’ve only got 1 SBI site which is more than 6 months old – so that you’re not spending so much time learning how to build a successful online business but you’re actually doing it.

Head over to Sitesell’s Facebook page and see if they’ve reached 10,000 “Likes” already and whether this rare promotion is already active.

If you have any questions about Site Build It or anything else, please email me at tomaz @ freedomideas.com.

If you ever wanted to ask a guru a question, this is the right time. Expect detailed answers though.

All the rules of the engagement are explained on this Facebook page and note that you only have a good day to ask your questions and have your friends on Facebook help you be selected for the 5 chosen questions Ken will answer.

There will also be a live hour with Ken (which I assume will last longer than one hour) where you’ll be able to ask him something live…

In case you’ve missed it, I’ve had the honor of meeting Ken and also interviewing him too.

I’d also like to mention an excellent page Sitesell.com has put up recently and it’s a page that addresses SBI Myths.

That page will answer many of your questions already so please check it if you’re not an SBI-er and you’re considering SBI and you’re of course confused with negative – totally inaccurate – information on the web.

Feel free to ask my opinion on these myths if you wish as I have debunked all of them through my 5 years of building my online business with SBI.

I’ll do this example from the SBI’s MKL (Master Keyword List) and how I work in Excel (or Open Office Calc) to organize keywords.

I’ll just show you an example based on one seed word – tennis, but the system is identical if you combine multiple vertical brainstorms from multiple seed words.

So here we go…

Step 1: Do a vertical Brainstorm of main keyword and Export All

Step 2: Import into Excel (Calc) and Save As .xls or .ods

Step 3: Sort by Demand (which is column B). Note – I don’t look at Profitability at all so I delete that column too. Feel free to use it though if it means something to you.

Step 4: Then I insert 3 columns on the left:

Step 5: I go through the list and pick out keywords for T2. I choose those with demand over 1000 and supply less than 1000 – and of course these keywords need to fit my site concept.

Since my tennis site focuses on instruction and mental game, I don’t choose “history of tennis” and similar keywords – but I could of course if I wanted – they are of course all related to tennis since they came from the tennis seed word.

I then Cut / Paste T2 keywords with demand and supply on the left side. See example how I moved “How to play tennis” and “Tennis Video” to the left.

Step 6: I delete the keywords that I surely won’t use and keep looking for suitable T2 keywords to move to the left.

If I see very similar keywords or those with both singular and plural versions I put them together – since the article will be optimized for both and I need to remind myself to include both versions in the title and the text – if possible.

I also try to move suitable T3 keywords to logical “parent” T2 keywords as I go down the list. This is the main work that needs to be done but this system allows you to cut / paste the keyword only once and when you’re done the blueprint will almost be done without any more work.

I’ve done just a few keywords in the above example to show you how the system works but of course you should complete all your T2 and T3 keywords.

One more tip: I usually build all my T2 pages first so that they show the basic site outline to the first visitors and they all serve me as a foundation on which I put more T3 pages.

I also build 3 to 5 T3 pages for EACH T2 before submitting my site to major directories. It gives it better chance of being accepted.

After that just keep adding T3 pages and links – and of course you may later come up with another T2 (or a few of them) and expand your site – which is no problem at all.

Dear Tomaz,

I am going to order SBI  this week-end and as I am a very beginner  in this field of internet business I have no idea how much extra costs will involve this business? Will you be so kind to give me an idea about this topic? Kind regards, V…

—————————————————-

Hi V…,

There are no mandatory extra costs with SBI 2.0. You can purchase the yearly subscription for $299 or monthly for $29.99.

There is only one optional cost and that is ordering extra brainstorming credits. When you buy Site Build It, you get 25 credits for brainstorming.

A brainstorm is a process, where you enter a seed word and the Brainstormer will return up to 800 keywords based on that keyword with their demand (how many people are looking for that keyword) and supply (with how many websites you compete) numbers. (See my Site Build It review for better understanding of brainstorming.)

You can do that 25 times but after that you would need to purchase more. They are very cheap actually: 100 new credits cost $20 and 500 credits cost only $50.

In reality, you probably won’t need more than 10 to 20 credits to complete your brainstorm because you can use the free brainstorming tool at http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com/ to gauge the demand of various seed words and their long tail keywords.

Once you have a better idea which niche has enough demand and good keywords, you can then do a full analysis with SBI Brainstormer which will show you the demand and supply of all those keywords.

So in summary, there are no extra costs with SBI 2.0.

Sitesell.com offers various services like coaching and link building but you don’t need to buy them – they are purely optional and they are actually new additions to the Sitesell.com services.

99% of the SBI-ers have not used those services since they didn’t exist in the past and still built very successful websites.

This review of SBI 2.0 shows the latest improvements and add-ons to the existing product which has been online for many years.

In fact, I suggest that you first check my original Site Build It review and and then return here to see what has been added to the original product.

SBI 2.0 Key Module – The C2

The C2 module has been launched more than a year ago and it was the single biggest improvement Sitesell has made in the 4 years that I have been using it.

The C2 module allows your visitors to create pages for you by sharing their stories, reviews and experiences and it also allows them to comment on the previous submissions.

It’s really up to you to find creative ways of encouraging people to contribute to your site and there are really endless possibilities.

Does C2 work?

Well, let’s talk facts instead of theory.

As you can see, there have been 245 pages built by visitors on my tennis site and here’s a link to one of the pages where you can see how the C2 module works and how the submissions are automatically added to the page.

What’s really cool about the C2 module is that it also automatically creates correct internal links (with the right anchor text) which helps you rank for your chosen long tail keywords.

When you create your SBI 2.0 website, you’ll research keywords and write optimized articles on those topics. But there are literally thousands of long tail keywords which no keyword tool can predict and your visitors will include these long tail keywords in their submissions and comments.

Your long tail traffic eventually starts to grow rapidly.

So what’s all the fuss now about C2 and SBI 2.0?

Well, when the C2 module was first introduced, you had 25 free submissions and after that, you had to pay $99 per year to use the C2 on your site.

Now the C2 is free and is the integral part of the SBI, hence SBI 2.0.

But that’s not all that’s new with Site Build It…

The Clean New Look

There is a new, cleaner and more modern look to the Site Central and other modules of SBI 2.0.

Here’s the “old look”…

… and the new look:

The Improved Brainstormer 3.0 And The MKL

The SBI’s Brainstormer keeps improving all the time. The latest version is extremely fast, it allows you to filter your results in many ways and it offers suggestions (preset filters) for newbies to help them get started faster and with the right keywords.

The New Monthly Payment Option

Site Build It has cost $299 per year for the last few years despite of all the improvements Sitesell has added to the product. The only exception was the C2 module and even this one is now free and automatically added with every SBI subscription.

I let Ken Evoy explain why the $29.99 monthly payment option was introduced now:

Times are tough. Money is tight. So demand for a monthly subscription format for SBI! has been high, according to the good folks who handle questions from the Web site.

I’ve always believed in an annual model, using the $299 as a reasonable way to make sure folks are COMMITTED.

… But the psychological impact of “$299″ and “1 year” sets the correct mindset. Now, though, I believe that we’re in a period where, with unemployment rates so high and cash so tight, more people are simply MOTIVATED. Period.

And more than ever, they want something real. So…

————————————————
Introducing The SBI! Monthly Subscription Option
————————————————

Starting now, your visitors have the option of paying $ 29.99 per MONTH for their SBI! 2.0 subscription instead of the usual $299 yearly price.

Check it out at the Order Page…

http://order.sitesell.com/

This is a limited time “soft” launch, without the usual shout-it-from-the-rafters pomp.

Why?

We’re not sure about the level of commitment. So we’ll observe how they’re doing. Frankly (very frankly), we don’t market SBI! to collect cash like a cable company if people are not serious about really using it to build the kind of business that will change their lives.

In the coming weeks, we’ll be watching the commitment level of these new SBIers with great interest. If the monthly option results in less serious SBIers, the time limitation will expire.

So there you have it. It’s a test period for the monthly payment to see the results of how committed and serious people are when they have to pay “only” $29.99 per month.

If you want to start a successful online business, become financially and personally free and you’re willing to invest time end effort, then now is a perfect time to take advantage of this offer.

Let me conclude this SBI 2.0 review with my experience; I have 4 SBI sites (and one just starting) that cost me 4 x $0.83 = $3.32 per day. These four websites earn me hundreds of times more dollars per day and the number keeps growing.

The C2 submissions keep adding new, fresh and useful content to my websites and all I have to do is to check that they are genuine, useful and approve or delete them.

It definitely takes some time and effort to get to that stage (even Site Build It cannot break the laws of physics and economics ), but once your site starts getting good traffic, it will snowball through C2.

Again, if you’re new to SBI, check my original SBI review to see what this product is all about and feel free to ask questions or share your experiences in the comments below if you’ve been using Site Build It for a while.

Here’s what I shared…

1.    Choosing a niche (Slide 2)
When you’re choosing a niche you need to assess whether there is enough demand for the keywords so that in the long term your site will get lots of traffic. My definition of lots of traffic is over 1000 daily visitors.

Based on my experience, you need at least 3000 total daily searches for top 100 keywords found through the free Wordtracker tool. If you go for too many, you may have too much competition so a good number to aim for is between 3000 and 8000 daily searches.

One of my sites is about vacuum cleaners and if you check the total demand in free WT, it shows just over 6000 daily searches which is perfect.

http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com/?seed=vacuum+cleaner&suggest=Plugin&adult_filter=remove_offensive

But if for example you try water softener, you’ll see that the demand is just around 3000 which is not bad but I would still look to expand the niche.

http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com/?seed=water+softener&adult_filter=remove_offensive&suggest=Hit+Me

There are 3 major ways of choosing keywords for your niche and you can check the SBI TNT article which explains that in more detail. (I wrote it by the way. )

2.    How to Brainstorm (Slide 3)
So if we want to expand the water softener niche, we need to find related keywords. The best way to do that is to use the Google Adwords tool, check the »Use Synonyms« box and click on »Get keyword ideas«.

The first section of keywords will contain only keywords which include water softener seed word. But if you scroll down, you’ll find »Additional keywords to consider« which you can also sort by Relevance. They usually are sorted by relevance by default.

So Google clearly suggests which keywords are tightly related to your main keyword and now you can brainstorm them too and get many more keywords in demand.

(Slide 4)
Once you have these keywords, you need to do a vertical brainstorm on them (example: vertical brainstorm on water conditioner) but then you need to delete low demand keywords from your MKL (Master Keyword List) because it allows you to store only 1000 keywords.

So you need to do a vertical brainstorm for each seed word, then delete low demand keywords (for example with less than 200 Value demand) and then do another vertical brainstorm on another seed word and so on.

Once you get all the keywords, organize them into T2 and T3 pages.

(Slide 5)
For T2 pages, choose keywords with at least 1000 Value demand and possibly less than 1000 Real supply. For T3 pages use keywords with at least 500 demand (go lower if you run out of keywords but don’t go below 200 or 150) and less than 500 supply. (lower is even better)

T2 keywords are typically 2 or 3 word keywords and T3 keywords are typically 3 or 4 or 5 word keywords…

3.    Finding even more keywords (Slide 6)
The best way to find more keywords besides the ones you get from the SBI Brainstormer is to use the Google Adwords tool again.

(Slide 7) If for example you search for more keywords based on hepa vacuum keyword, you’ll get only a few suggestions from the Wordtracker or SBI BI (SBI uses Wordtracker as its main database).

(Slide 8 ) But if you look for more keyword ideas based on hepa vacuum in Google Adwords tool, you’ll see that Google gives you back many more keywords.

While they don’t have that much demand, it’s still enough (Choose Exact Match and you’ll see how many times the keywords have been searched in one month). Divide by 30 to get daily searches.)

You may also discover high paying keywords for which you then optimize your articles and get higher paying clicks on your Adsense units.

4.    Optimizing for best rankings (Slide 9)
How to optimize your homepage has been already explained in the post about Understanding Site Concept, Tier 1…

(Slide 10)
You can also optimize your T2 and T3 pages for more than one keyword. The best way to do that is to look for long tail words of your keyword and include them in the title and a few times in the article.

If for example you start typing tennis instruction in Google, you’ll see that Google suggests long tail keywords.

You then need to find a way to include a few of those in the title. So Google suggests online, video, drills, for kids, videos free and other words and I’ve included a few of them in my title which says Tennis Instruction – Videos, Tips and Free Online Tennis Lessons.

You can now try searching for all those keyword combinations (like tennis instruction videos and tennis instruction online etc.) and see where my page ranks. You’ll also see that Google »boldens« those words which means that they are part of the ranking algorithm.

Sometimes you’ll come across different words like water cooler and water dispenser which mean exactly the same. Use both of them in the title and basically optimize the article for both.

5.    Internal linking (Slide 11)
Internal linking is so important that I’ve decided to include it in my presentation. It’s one of the secrets of high rankings.

The key is to use your keywords in the link text of your links. You need to link back from every T2 page to your homepage saying »Back from T2 keyword to homepage keyword«.

You also need to link back from every T3 page to the parent T2 page and also to the homepage using the right keywords.

The link text “TELLS” Google for which keywords it should rank your page – so it’s crucial that you use it correctly in your external and internal links!

Of course, since you optimized your homepage for 3 or more keywords (and also your T2), vary the link text pointing to the homepage and T2 pages. I sometimes link to the homepage with link text vacuum cleaner reviews, sometimes with best vacuum cleaners and sometimes just with vacuum cleaners.

(Slide 12)
I also suggest that you internally link between your T3 pages – of course using the right keywords in the link text.

When you add a new page to your site, try to include 2 or 3 links to your existing pages. But you can also search your existing pages for the keyword which your new article is optimized for and change those words into links.

For example: if I were to write an article about sports psychology (main keyword), I could search like this in Google: “sports psychology” site:www.tennismindgame.com and Google would show me all pages where this keyword has already been used.

Now I could just edit those pages and change a few keywords into links. If you have a blog, do the same search on your blog and you can quickly find a few links that perfectly fit your content – the words were already there.

To see an example of internal linking done to the max, see how most Wikipedia pages look like. And you know that Wikipedia ranks extremely high in Google for thousands of keywords – so they must be doing something right, right?

6.    Recipe for Lots of Traffic (Slide 13)
Choose high demand / low supply keywords (ideal – Value demand over 1000, supply less than 500), build your site to over 100 pages (over 200 even better), properly interlink them like suggested above and get lots of links from different domains using the right anchor text.

If you want to increase your traffic to the level of top SBI sites, you must have the similar amount and quality of pages and links. And these sites get over 4000 incoming links from 200 different domains on average.

Content + links = traffic

If you follow these steps, you’ll reach the final goal – becoming free! It won’t happen in 3 months, but you’ll be well on your way after just 1 year.

(These are my Chitika earnings so far. Have you started using Chitika yet? )

This review will focus mostly on the process and the tools that Sitesell.com offers with their main product. The actual results of using it, however, can be found in my post, My Journey To Freedom and Over $9,000 Per Month.

A Review of the Site Build It Process – The Action Guide

When you purchase your first SBI site, you are not given all the tools at once, and you cannot even register a domain immediately.

Your first tool is the Brainstormer, which allows you to brainstorm your chosen keywords and see what the demand (how many searches) and supply (how many competing websites) are.

The Brainstormer – Finding the Winning Keywords

Your first goal is to find the right niche. This process protects you from 2 major mistakes:

Mistake 1: Building a site around a niche that doesn’t have enough demand.

Mistake 2: Building a site around a niche that is too competitive.

In both cases, you may end up with only 120 visitors per day after a whole year of hard work, and this traffic might only earn you $5 per day.

To appreciate this Site Build It review, you need to understand this fundamental point: Just as you need to research markets and market demand in the offline world, you have to do the same for the online market, carefully choosing the right topic and keywords for your website.

These choices make it possible to rank high in major search engines –  which creates enough demand to get you lots of free traffic. And that lets you make real money.

The Brainstomer allows you to research many different topics and check what kind of demand and competition there is for your potential site concept.

Based on Brainstomer content data, you’ll then pick the most profitable and winnable site concept. Then you’ll need to research the keywords related to this site concept and find the best ones.

The Brainstomer will help you here too, by spotting these golden nuggets – keywords with good demand and low competition.

The Site Build It Brainstormer And Your Keyword List

Your goal, then, is to find these keywords and organize them in a somewhat logical, 3-level structure – a homepage (Tier 1), main pages (Tier 2), and related articles (Tier 3). In addition to the homepage, a small site could have 10 Tier 2 pages, and each of those could have 10 Tier 3 pages, which would total 101 pages.

A bigger site could have 20 Tier 2 pages, with 20 Tier 3 pages each. This would make a site of around 401 pages.

Once you have completed your blueprint, you’ll register your chosen domain name to reflect your site concept.

Site Central – Building Your Site

Trust me when I say that you’ve done most of the hard work by now, even though you’re just at the beginning of this Site Build It review.

All you need to do now is to build pages based on the keywords you’ve chosen by using the Brainstormer.

a) Building a site – for beginners

Building pages is a very simple process and doesn’t require any knowledge of HTML, CSS, or other programming skills.

First, you’ll use a block-by-block page builder and fill in the file name, title, description, and keywords fields.

Enter Your Main Page Info With The Block-by-block Builder

Next, you can start writing your text and adding headlines, graphics, links, and so on.

Adding Headlines, Text And Graphics Is Very Simple

Of course, it’s best if you write your articles offline – for example, in Microsoft Word – and then paste them into the right field when you’re done. After that, the Analyzer will check to see if your page is optimized for search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN.

If there are some things missing or incorrect, the Analyzer will let you know.

Site Build It Analyzer Lets You Know How To Optimize The Page

You’ll then correct the mistakes and run the Analyzer again until it lets you know that everything is OK.

All that’s left to do is to click the Build It button and your page will be built and published on your website. The Site Build It system will automatically ping all major search engines, so that their spiders will visit your website and add your pages to the search engines’ indexes.

ExampIe: I built my first site with this simple process and ended up only having to change the header (another very simple process). Click the URL to check the site and see whether you like the look of it: tennismindgame.com.

It receives over 1500 visitors per day, and I’ve gotten a lot of praise from both visitors and fellow SBI-ers for how clean it looks. There is really no need to complicate the layout in order to succeed online.

This Site Build It review has so far described the main steps for beginners to get going. But what about you experts out there?

b) Building a site – for experts

If you’re familiar with HTML and can build a more complex site, then you don’t have to follow the process of building block-by-block. You can create your HTML site in Dreamweaver – or any other web design software – and upload your own HTML.

Design Your Own Look And Feel Of The Site And Upload HTML

You’ll still use the Analyzer, which will alert you in case your page is not well optimized, and you’ll still have the chance to correct any mistakes before you build the page.

Example: my second site about vacuum cleaners, was first built with a block-by-block system, but I later changed to a 3-column template to which I uploaded my own HTML code.

Let me reiterate one more time – the look of your site has no effect on your rankings in Google or other search engines. Google ranks your site based on its content and the quantity and quality of the incoming links.

You are totally free to choose whether you want to build a simple site or a more complex site. It all depends on your knowledge and your desires.

Site Build It Tools – A Review of Main Tools and Modules

There are many other tools in the Site Central area which will help you get more traffic, make your site more visitor friendly, and allow you to check your progress – you can keep track of the number of daily visitors, the number of incoming links, where the visitors click, and much more.

Here’s a brief overview of the most important tools and modules:

Content 2.0

This module allows you to build invitations, which are special forms that the visitors of your site can use to share their stories. These can be their experiences, reviews, or whatever you invite them to share.

This means that your visitors will now build content for you – for free – and your site’s content will grow without any effort on your part.

Socialize It

The Socialize It module adds social bookmarking buttons to your pages, which allow your visitors to bookmark your pages online at del.icio.us and other sites – yet another way to increase your site’s incoming links and popularity.

Quick Re-Upload It

Site Build It doesn’t use FTP, but the Quick Re-Upload It module works just as fast. If you’ve edited some of the pages and you wish to update them on your site, you’ll simply re-upload them with a few clicks. Your site will immediately show these updated pages.

MailOut Manager

MailOut Manager allows you to store email addresses and send a newsletter. Before I found Site Build It, I built my first website using some company in Slovenia. They charged $300 just for the newsletter module! Here, you get the whole package, with hosting included, for the same price.

RSS/Blog It

RSS/Blog it automatically builds a blog on your website based on the new pages you build. It adds an RSS feed and pings all major RSS/blog readers so that they know your site is updated. This also allows your readers to follow the updates on your site through their favourite RSS reader.

Infin It

Infin It allows you to add functionality to your site by creating a subdomain and then “mapping” it to a third-party provider for blogging, shopping carts, forums, and so forth. If you want to add PHP Web pages to your site, then this is where you can do that. It’s for more experienced users who want more.

Traffic Stats

See how many daily visitors your site receives using Traffic Stats: which pages were viewed the most, where the visitors came from, what they typed in the search engines, and more.

SBI Traffic Stats – Daily Visitors, Pageviews And More

Search Engine HQ

This is a very interesting and useful module which shows you how your pages rank in Google, Yahoo, Live, and Ask.

Search Engine HQ allows you to discover the pages on your site that don’t rank well. Then you can work on optimizing them, additional content and incoming links to improve the rankings of each separate page. You can also check each page for the keywords used to find it, and where the visitors came from.

Value Exchange

Value Exchange lets you search for sites related to your topic and ask for a link exchange. It also shows you the number of incoming links and whether building links should be your main priority or not.

Building links is crucial for your rankings by search engines: it creates additional traffic, and this module definitely makes this part of building a successful site much easier.

There are even more tools, like Click Data, Name Park It, MX It, Special File Manager, and others. It’s up to you whether you want to use them or not. They all add extreme versatility to your website, and it’s hard to imagine that you’d ever want to do something with your site that Site Build It can’t do.

Help and Support

Let’s conclude this Site Build It review with how it helps you have a successful online business.

The Site Build It package first guides you with its Action Guide, which is in written and video format. Then, when you work with any of the tools and modules, you can access very comprehensive Help documentation for each module.

If you get stuck anywhere, you can jump to the SBI Forums, which are really fantastic. You can ask whatever question you want, and more experienced SBI-ers (me included ) are always happy to help.

Let me conclude this Site Build It review with this thought: SBI is not a get-rich-quick system, and it does not break the laws of economics and physics. It took me one year to start earning more than $1000 per month, but I kept at it because I saw the light at the end of the tunnel – financial and personal freedom.

I am now my own boss and enjoy my life more than ever: I do what I like, earn great money, and take my holidays whenever I want.

If you would like to check the Site Build It forums and learn more about SBI before you take the plunge, email me at tomaz (at) freedomideas.com and I’ll give you a username and password to log-in.

Update! I’ve added the review of SBI 2.0 which introduces for the first time the monthly payment option of $29.99 and gives you the Content 2.0 module for free.

Of course, please email me if you have any other questions, too.

I also invite anyone else using SBI to post a short Site Build It review here to let others know how SBI has worked for them. Thanks!

Actually before I continue, let me show you a picture:

I saw quite a few times that people actually typed the “Site Build It sucks” phrase in a search engine and somehow found my site.

So I’ve decided to optimize a blog post on this keyword to hopefully get more people here and help them make the right decision.

I’ll try to be objective and approach the “SBI sucks” topic from 2 angles:

1. Why Site Build It Doesn’t Suck

- it’s not a normal web hosting thingy. The SBI Action Guide will teach you how to create a content site relying on free search engine traffic bringing visitors and money day after day without much work

- if you ever get stuck at any part, you can access help for every topic, you can ask a question on the forums and you can even hire an experienced SBI-er to help you out

- I’ve achieved financial freedom with SBI (check my Site Build It Review!) and am earning over $10,000 per month with just a few sites. I did work very hard to get here but thanks to free search engine traffic I don’t have to work so hard any more. I even have time to write posts about whether “Site Build It sucks” or not…

- there are hundreds of Site Build It sites built by ordinary people with no prior knowledge of HTML and SEO. If they can do it, so can you.

2. Why Site Build It Does Suck

Key Evoy (The CEO of Sitesell.com) said this:

The “bad” news? SBI! does not eliminate the common-sense, universal laws of business and economics…

It takes time and work to build a genuine, profitable, long-term business with equity.

It takes a persistent, slow-steady-sure approach, fueled by passion, steadied by patience and reassured by faith in a system that both makes sense and is proven to work.

Bottom line:

If you are looking for a magic pill that will create a site which will earn $100 per day in just a month or two, then yes, Site Build It sucks. It’s not that good.

If on the other hand you want to learn how to build a successful website and want to have all the tools in one place for only 0.82 cents per day, then no, SBI does not suck at all.

In fact, feel free to explore my blog and see how I used SBI to free myself from slavery of a 9-5 job.

Note: There have been some negative reviews of SBI on a couple of blogs saying that it’s a scam. Well, that’s very funny as this “scam” is really working for me and for hundreds of other people.

By the way, here’s what SiteSell has to say about “Site Build It scam reviews“…

And if there’s an SBI-er reading this post I’d appreciate if you share your thoughts on whether Site Build It really sucks or not. Thanks!
