CHECKLIST for WEBSITES

For web design checklists, for everything from header to SEO, see this list.  If you want specifics, like how to tinker to improve traffic and generate income, see this list.   It costs $7.95 a month to host a website at Hostgator, and you can use their one button install 
to install a wordpress site in about 10 minutes.

So if the client pays you $2,000 a year to do that, then it is a good business model - especially if you can get 50 additional clients.

On the other hand, if the client expects you to spend ten hours a week working on their site, you'll end up spending at least 500 hours a year working for them, and that works out to earning $2.00 an hour.

Personally, I'd choose a business model where you spend 40 hours or less doing something, then are able to sell the thing you created in that 40 hours to hundreds or thousands of clients world-wide. 


Bill's Affiliate Program

1. Create sales page and run it past people whose opinion you trust.
2. Make sure membership material can't be accessed by people sharing direct links to it.


CHECKLIST for VIDEOS

Start . . . by giving the viewer a reason to watch the rest of the video.

Basically, you should answer the "what's in it for me" question at the beginning of the video. Don't make viewers go through the entire video to learn what's in it for them.  Most will leave long before the video ends if you don't.

That's why in my videos I always start out by saying, 'In this video I'm going to show you how to . . ."

That way, the viewer learns right up front how they'll benefit from watching the video.

For example, it it were a weight watching video, I'd start by saying 'Want to lose ten pounds in the next seven days? In this video I'm going to show you how.'

The idea is to give viewers a reason to watch the rest of the video.
