Do I need to buy anything else? NO! Everything you need is included. The only additional step is a FREE account at Name.com to take over ownership of the domain name that I have already purchased. You do not have to buy it, as it is included in the purchase, but to keep your site going you will need to renew it each year. Check out the link in the footer to receive a FREE $5 credit when signing up to Name.com for the first time.
What is included in the hosting? You will be given an FTP login (File Transfer Protocol) to the hosting where you can upload any site files you decide to change, such as pricing & other text. The hosting can ONLY be used with the site purchased and no additional websites can be added. I recommend using either Core FTP or Filezilla to upload/transfer files, as they are free and easy to use. Links in footer.
What about email? Each site includes a professional domain specific email addy that is set to FORWARD all messages to your own email address, so you never miss a message!
Can I use my own providers? Absolutely! You can use whatever supplier you wish to fulfill your orders. Your website is not tied to any particular services or setup. Also, the buy buttons can easily be changed to your own preferred payment processor, such as Paypal, Stripe, etc., as all the sites will work with any kind of payment links.
Can I sell the website if I decide in the future that I no longer want to make money online? You sure can! Plus, websites that have already made revenue sell for way more than starter sites, so build it up with sales over time and then you can sell for a big profit over what you originally paid for it! A $79 starter website can become a $1000 established site for sale easily!!
How does the affiliate program work? Your website comes with a unique identifying URL in the footer that links back to SiteDonkey. If a visitor to your site decides they would also like to buy a turnkey starter website and clicks through your link to make a purchase, then as the owner of the referring website you get $25 for that referral straight to your Paypal account. You can also copy that same ref link and paste it anywhere, such as Facebook, emails, etc, and any sales that come from that link will be credited to you!
What's with the DONKEY? I like domains with animal names, sorry! :)
