Building Online Stores
Finally just finished building out Women's Discount Jewelry, my latest online store.
For something that was supposed to be the easiest concept in the world to build, it took me two days to finish up the four page site. And I haven't even started building backlinks yet.
Most of the time was taken up by researching and writing useful original content. The rest was tweaking out various settings to get it to look the way I want. The funny part is that I have two textbooks on their way in the mail and when I finish learning those the whole store will have to be revamped anyway.
I finally bought the domain name last week due to going through my old lists. Last year I bought Women's Discount Perfume while thouroghly burnt out from working too much and accidentally thought I bought the jewelry domain name. I then proceeded to purchase jewelry related pictures until I realized my mistake.
The perfume store was going to be my first attempt at building an online retail site, only the trial version of Actinic 8 stopped working when I moved it to the new laptop. It just stopped being able to FTP even though all of the settings were correct.
So after all of the work I put into the perfume store I had to shelve the idea and moved onto other things.
Looks like now its time to go back and redo that store the same way I did the jewelry store.
