Site Build It! Review
What is Site Build It! (SBI!) and how can it help you make money online? (And is it any good?)
Hmm, tricky question. (The first question, anyway - the answer to the second is a resounding yes (with provisos -- see below!).)
Basically, Site Build It! (SBI!) is all the tools and resources you'll need (yes, that includes web hosting too) to create a website that works -- together with complete instructions (known as site build it action guide).
Look at that expression again.
A website that works. (There are problems with Site Build It!, though -- see below!)
(Read on, below, or click on the video as it does a great job of explaining what SBI! does! Or take a look at these example sbi sites)
(Continued...)
Anyone can build a website, given a little guidance (I wrote an article showing you how here: how to build a website and this site includes plenty of tips. The process is a little involved, but it's not that complicated (I managed to do it, after all! :-) )
Not anyone can build a successful website, however -- a web business, you might say. And that's where SBI! comes in - it helps you build a web business. No more, no less!
Some example SBI! businessesHere's a sample of the types of businesses SBI! is suited for:

Why does SBI! work?
SBI! works because it offers a comprehensive set of technical solutions that can be used by the non-technical (see below).
It also works because it quite literally empowers people to make the most of themselves, their skills and their knowledge.
Also, Dr Ken Evoy and his company SiteSell listen to SBIers (SBI! users), and encourage feedback. He then acts on that feedback to make the improvements to SBI! that SBIers want to see. (If you're thinking this is what Microsoft does, then - erm! - no, I think you're mistaken.)
And SBIers share their successes (and failures) with others in a unique, positive, online forum open only to SBIers.
Basically, SBI! takes the technical out of building a successful site, and provides continued support to help you continue to succeed.
SBI! (technically speaking)

So you don't have to worry if you don't know the difference between a website, a webpage and a webblog, if you don't know what a server is or what FTP means.
Everything you need to know is explained in the Site Build It! Action Guide.

Site
Build It! Action Guide
Here's a free look at the Guide that SBIers
actually use. There's a written guide as well as a video guide (need
fast internet connection for this). Maybe it will do a better job than me of explaining
what SBI! is :-) .

place to explain SBI! to you - the SBI!

How much does Site Build It cost?
SBI! sites cost US$299 per year, paid in advance.
This works out to be $25 per month, which seems a lot if you think only in terms of web hosting (SBI! is more than a web host - see below), but when you consider that Site Build It! offers pretty much every online tool you'll need to build a web site that works then it's actually money well spent, in my humble opinion.
And if it's not, in your humble opinion, and if $299 proves not to be money well spent then the Site Build It! guarantee offers you your money back at any time -- you even get to keep the domain you registered.
Note: there were many Site Build It! special offer deals in 2007 and I'm sure 2008/9 will be the same. For example, to celebrate Valentine's Day you can get a free Site Build It! site for just $100 when you buy a first SBI! site. Even without special offer deals, though, Site Build It! websites represent outstanding value for money.

SBI! is not just a web hosting company
What's so special about a web hosting company?
Nothing.
==ASIDE==
You
probably know this but, all websites have to exist somewhere on the web. This
is known as hosting, or web hosting. If you ever want to run your own site
you will have to get it hosted somewhere. Hosting can be free, but this is not
advised for sites that are seriously trying to make money.
Hence web
hosting companies - thousands of them!
==ASIDE==
I mention web hosting, because SBI! provides web hosting to all SBI! sites. Thousands of other companies offer web hosting (some very famous companies too), but none can show proof that their websites succeed.
None show you how to convert that website into one that can make money, and provide you with all the tools you'll need to do that. (Compare with other major companies here!).
None can provide results like these!
So SBI! is so much more than just a web hosting company.
However...
Again, you do not need SBI! to succeed.
(I succeed with TextMeFree.com and it's not a SBI! site.)
It's just that SBI! makes it a lot, lot easier for almost anyone to do so. :-)
Example SBI! SitesThe following SBI! sites just show you what's possible with passion, and a bit of determination. As you'll see there are sites on all sorts of subjects. Maybe they won't interest you, directly, but they will give you an idea of what's possible. And if
these ordinary people can do it... |

So who is SBI! for?
Do you think you could create one of the SBI! example sites above?
All
it needs is some application, a bit of belief, conviction
and determination - a, b, c, d you might say. SBI! is a step-by-step
way to earning an extra income, or even to running your own successful business
online.
But SBI! is a difficult concept to explain. I know. I've had
my SBI! site for over 4 years now, and I don't completely understand everything
it can do.
Anyway... I believe SBI! is suitable for everyone, from beginner to expert alike!
(And I think expert web builders and professional SEOers would really appreciate the power of Brainstorm It! - the keyword research tool that is unsurpassed on the web!)
Problems with Site Build IT! -- some provisos...
Or, who is SBI! NOT for?
There are some people that will not like using Site Build It!. Those people who are impatient for success come to mind, and those that cannot follow instructions. But Site Build It! does have some technical limitations and if you're looking to build an all-singing, all-dancing website then you may want to spend your thousands elsewhere.
Also, SBI can be used by non-technical types, those that know nothing about HTML. And this is because SBI! comes with a block-by-block builder that (I think laboriously) lets you build a web page, paragraph by paragraph. I have never used this Block Builder, ever! It would be far too slow for me, and it might be too slow for you, too. Instead, I've always built my pages using software like Adobe DreamWeaver and then uploaded them into SBI! afterwards. (Remember, though, that beginners to web design would not be able to do this - Block Builder is aimed at these people, and - for them - it's a great tool.)
So, as I said, SBI! is not for everyone. (Do note, though, that if you are unhappy with Site Build it! and you feel it is not for you, then you can get a full refund in the first 30 days, and a pro rata refund after that.)
Some people just want to do it their own way, as it's quicker (but it's much less likely to succeed).
So, yes Build Promote Profit TIPS is NOT built using Site Build It!. However, my How I Promote My Website is a Site Build It! example.
Not a Get Rich Quick scheme (GRQ)
I don't believe in get rich quick schemes. If you know better about GRQ then please send me $1,000,000 as soon as you can - it shouldn't take you too long to earn it back, should it! ;-)
No...
SBI! is NOT a GRQ scheme (and if that's what you're interested in, then good luck and stop reading - I don't want to waste any more of your time!).
The next thing to say is that NOT everybody who buys SBI! succeeds wildly(*). Some SBI! owners give up and some simply earn an extra income each month - it doesn't change their life (yes, that includes me, by the way).
But SBI! does actually change some people's lives.
==ASIDE==
(*) Most people who don't succeed with SBI! or who don't at least earn an extra
income probably don't follow the SBI! instructions properly, or they simply don't
believe they can succeed. Think about it, how easy is it to climb that steep wall,
say, if you genuinely do not believe you can climb it. As soon as you feel your
foot slipping, off you fall and you shout "See! I told you I couldn't climb
it!" But if you knew you could climb it, well I'm betting that you'd
climb it sooner or later. If you put your faith in SBI! and in yourself, I think
you will be pleasantly surprised by the results....
==ASIDE==
So, some people just earn more money, or they leave the 'rat race', or - the most important transformation - they start to believe that they really can succeed in life.
SBI! really does empower people like that. (This is another reason why I wrote this Site Build It! review in the first place.. Trying to empower people is a little hobby of mine! You might say that it's empowering. ;-) )
Anyway, take a look at these SBI! case studies to see the evidence for yourself.
You are right to be cautious...
You are right to be cautious. (It needed repeating! ;-) .)
There are many many scams out there, or products/services that really don't help you that much (they're only trying to get you to buy more products and services, say).
I was extremely cautious before I bought a product from Ken Evoy's company Sitesell.com (I bought Make Your Words Sell in 2000, I think!). I took the risk and decided to trust Ken. And now I feel very pleased with 1) my caution (I saved hundreds of dollars on needless courses) and 2) my choice (I chose Ken Evoy and Sitesell).
So, do be cautious. There are no guarantees online or offline.
Here are two respected sites that aim to keep you clear of internet
scams:
(These are not my sites, nor those of my friends. They're just good, helpful sites. They're not SBI! sites either, but they are the types of sites that SBI! helps you create! ;-))
Still... I recommend Site Build It!
Bottom line?
I have no hesitation in recommending Site Build It! to you, my friends and family, or anyone, as I really believe it's a great way to build a site that works.(The Brainstorm It! tool is worth cost of admission on its own, in my opinion.) I have no hesitation in showing what others think too:
