During the process of building multiple online businesses, I’ve come across several products that can save time and make your life a little easier as you try to create your own online business.
If you click the links and purchase these products, I get paid a commission. Thank you!
Web Hosting
Bluehost Hosting – One of the essential tools that you need to run your own website is a hosting service. And with Bluehost Hosting, you get premium WordPress hosting on some of the fastest servers on the market to perfect your web vitals. They also offer site management for all of your needs and customer service that’s second to none.
Interserver – My favorite pick if you’re running a site that needs some serious power. Their managed WordPress hosting is fast, reliable, and easy to use. Their customer support is second to none and when compared to other hosting companies, Interserver is my overall favorite.
Keyword Research Tools
SEMRush – Although this is not strictly a keyword research tool, it can help you cherry pick the good keywords that your competitors are ranking for. I use SEMRush for all kinds of competitor analysis, excellent tool.
WordPress Plugins
Elementor – Elementor can be used to make buttons, showcase boxes, throw in videos, set page and post templates, and works as a niche site builder’s dream. It has a free version that is crazy powerful and you can upgrade to Pro for the theme editor. You can get the free version with a page builder for free.
WordPress Themes and Web Design
GeneratePress – GeneratePress is a lightweight theme that moves lightning fast. You have a lot of customization options in the theme (more so with pro) and it’s responsive. It has a free version if you want to try it out.
Elementor – This tool has gotten more and more powerful as time goes on. I used to be a big fan of Thrive Themes (and I still am), but I think Elementor is a little bit more powerful nowadays. It has a full page builder plus theme editor, and Elementor Pro is reasonably priced. But they also have a free page builder you can try here.
Make Money Online Websites
Fiverr – Fiverr is an online marketplace where freelancers offer a wide range of services, often referred to as “gigs,” starting at $5. These services can include graphic design, writing, digital marketing, programming, video editing, and many other skills.
Swagbucks – Swagbucks is a rewards and loyalty program that allows users to earn points, known as “Swagbucks” (SB), by completing various online activities. The points earned on Swagbucks can be redeemed for a variety of rewards, including gift cards to popular retailers (like Amazon, Walmart, and Starbucks), PayPal cash, or other prizes.
To Be Continued…
As time goes on, I’m sure I will add to this list of products that I use. However, these are the tools that I use most often in my day to day business right now.
