My New Home Based Business Started...
When My Wife Asked Me to Develop
a Web Site for Her Quilting Business


Since retiring I wanted to start a home based business and my wife had always wanted a web site to promote her quilting business. Seeing me with time on my hands she suggested I build her a web site.

Quilting Business




How could I say
no after she
made me such a beautiful quilt!!
It takes me back to
my days in Calgary,
particularly those crazy
Stampede Days!!

I call it Dancin' Boots


We recently moved to the Sunshine Coast in British Columbia. It is a very beautiful place and we love it here, but it was quite a change from the hustle and bustle of the BIG city of Vancouver.

With my computer background I thought it would be a snap to start an online home based business - I proved myself quite wrong. I was a computer tech in the "old technology days", nothing like the new technology around today, particularly with the Internet and Web Design.

However, I felt it would be a good challenge and learning experience, so I started researching the vast array of web building options on the internet. It was a daunting task and after several weeks I was as much in the dark as day one!!! I was getting nowhere.

With some timely luck and advice from a past business associate I discovered the Site Build It web site. Their claim to fame is to help "newbie" web developers like myself create their own web sites. But I did not want just a web site I wanted an income generating home based business.

Now I hear you thinking..."Sure, been there done that" and I have been there too, and yes I had tried other "get rich quick options" and found out THEY DONT WORK!!

Well, after a few days of research I decided to use the FREE trial option. SBI was offering neophyte designers like myself all the tools necessary to develop home based business web sites, without becoming a "WEB" guru. Plus they overdelivered on a whole suite of other home based business opportunities that were unknown to me.

Building this site has given me a greater insight into the multitude of income generating opportunities that do exist on the "Net". I am already planning my next site concept.

UPDATE...UPDATE!!! on our Quilting Business Traffic

It has been over a year since I started building my wife's site and as you can see the traffic is steadily growing!! I have over 55 pages up with more to come. But I have followed the SBI instructions to the letter and it works.

The following is my traffic summary for the last 11 months:

Traffic Statistics for Quilting Business


Well after the great increase from February 2008 through April 2008 traffic flattened a bit, but that is expected, no web site grows exponantially every month. I am continuing to build more pages and there will be another increase..guarateed. I found out something really interesting about traffic. If you want to know what it is, contact me through the contact page and I will let you know what I did.....at ABSOLUTELY no cost. Now that's FREE traffic!!!!!!

Would you like to build a web site that attracts this type of traffic for FREE!! I have not spent one cent to date on buying traffic. No Adwords; no buying lists, however, once I do grow my site further I may consider those options.

Or are you a frustrated MLM'er and need more information on the MLM market? You can download a FREE E-Book on the "The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing" it is a great read and shares a lot of the secrets that the top money makers in your organization will not tell you.

This is not a GRQ - Get Rich Quick scheme. It has taken me hours of work to get to this point. It has been FUN to see the site develop like it has and to see the traffic snowball start to grow. What is so unique about this is that I did not need to learn any new computer languages or technology, it was all presented to me in a comprehensive package in plain english and I proceeded at my own pace.
