In today's world with the internet media is running a business becomes increasingly globalized. If you normally market your product or service you are offline you normally do at your place of business in the form of a store or through your network marketing business, now you can sell your products or services on the internet using the website, the market becomes more widespread, you can reach the entire market Indonesian market directly or greater to the market throughout the world. Stay you decide, you want the focus to reach the market place.

You can access the internet anywhere ...

The difference when you sell offline with online selling is when you sell offline only, then the prospective buyer you get from people who come to your store, but by selling online then you can reach people who have Internet access wherever they are opening your website. You open up new markets instantly. Therefore what if you now begin to sell to markets around the world?

The bigger the market the better course and the difference between market your products to the Indonesian market only or to markets around the world are distinguished only by how you send your product will be. Goods are shipped the same, only shipping costs are different, to go abroad you can wear a more expensive shipping costs to buyers.


As a beginning to start with, surely you must have a product or service that can be sold on the internet, then create either a website or online store with a simple sales website. And on the website, you can display the products or services you offer with the data as detailed as possible including photos and specifications of products.

Photographs or drawings of a very important product to sell online so that prospective buyers can see what kind of product he will get later, and with a detailed product data, then the prospective buyer can decide directly on the website to buy or not at that time.

Because the Internet media without restriction area, then your website that displays the product can be viewed and your offer can be read by people outside of Indonesia and if your offer attractive and your product is the product sought and needed by them, then they can buy products you and make orders on your website. However, problems arising then is how you can receive payments for products that you would sell if there are buyers from abroad and to order your product on the website? The solution now is PayPal.

PayPal is a means to transact online that accepts payments from credit card and also transfer from another PayPal account, PayPal and the good news had reached Indonesia. People Indonesia can now use PayPal on a full feature. You can accept payments through credit cards from your customers for every sale of products on your website, you can receive or make a payment to another PayPal account, you can receive payments from the sale of your products on ebay.com, and you can ask for transfer of money from colleagues your business. In a nutshell, PayPal is your online account to trade and receive money online. And the money collected later in the PayPal account you can lighten your bank account throughout Indonesia within 5-7 working days. So you get a dollar from the sale of products or services and will be converted into dollars, so you receive the money in your bank account is in rupiah.

In opening an account on PayPal.com, PayPal provides 3 types of accounts you can choose according to your needs are personal accounts, premier account, and business accounts. Personal accounts are used for your individual who intends to use PayPal for online shopping without any intention to sell products online, while for Premier and Business accounts are used for those who wish to use PayPal as a payment on your website in selling your products and services on the website . Premier and Business accounts serves a similar function, but with the addition of multi-user access is a PayPal account can be accessed by more than one user when you select a business account. Business Account designed for companies, so you open a PayPal account in the name of the company while the premiere of using personal names. To get started you simply open a premier account and you can upgrade later.

So in short you need to do to sell your products or services to markets around the world, namely:

  • You have a product or service to sell online.
  • You create a website in the form of an online store or a simple sales website to showcase your product or service in detail and give your offers to each visitor of your website.

How to Buy Domain Name For Your Internet Business

Posted at 10:45 PM by John Rohman
Domain is the address of our website on the internet. Everyone who will access to our website, they need to type your domain name. Therefore, the domain is an important matter, especially choosing the right domain name for business or your business on the Internet.

Domain names registration on the internet is very easy, you can buy a domain through the website or company that provides domain registration services, for example in godaddy.com. You can just enter the domain name in the box and click search to check the domain is still available or not. If still available and appropriate domain name, you live to register.


In a domain containing the domain name and extension domain (domain suffix) like.. Com, net,. Org,. Biz,. Info, and so on. So if you are going to buy a domain and instance (businessplan.com) already registered by someone else, you can choose which. Net (bisbusinessplan.net) and so on. Indeed, in choosing a domain name sought to get a domain name with the suffix. Com, one of which is the reason. Com domain better known to everyone and is the top level domain.

Buying In this domain, you can buy new, buy from someone or buying a domain that is past expired.

  • In general, people buy a new domain in a way to check on the website or company that provides domain registration services. And can directly register
  • The second option is, if the domain you want to use already registered by someone else, you can check whether the website owner using its domain or not and you can ask her if she would sell it or not.
  • And the latter to buy a domain that is past expired. The extension of a domain name performed annually, so that domains can be used, should be extended every year. There are extending it once a year and can also directly straight years like 5 years or 10 years, and so on. And if the domain is not renewed, then the domain will enter a period expired. If after entering the period expired, then about 3 months or 100 days after the period expired then the domain will open freely and can be registered again by the new owner. But when a good domain name, you can use the backorder of websites that provide domain registration services such as godaddy.com. With a backorder, the domain can be purchased before the domain is opened free to return to the public. Months yesterday after my domain name is already in the period expired but did not use the backorder, but apart because of others first register (do not know anyone who preyed on the domain name as well).

Over the years, the domain name will be increasingly important as more and more people go online, then the limitations to obtain the desired domain name primarily domain suffix. Com, so if you currently already have business-related, there is no harm in buying a name domain first.

For SEO, domain name also plays an important role. Usually the websites that have domain names and therein contain the keyword, then the website will likely appear on the first page of google for keywords in the domain without having so much trouble doing SEO.

I will give examples of domains topbusiness.com with an estimated monthly search for people who type in search words buying and selling homes in the search engine google search about 1.220.000 Global Monthly Searches.


And the content on site has not been filled - there is no content, so the website is indexed based on the strength of the keyword in its domain name.

The conclusion is:
Choosing a domain name is crucial to marketing on the internet. Choose a domain name that contains keywords in it, will make it easier the website is indexed in search words that match its domain name. And as time passes and business developments in the Internet, the more you go online and a good domain name will be increasingly rare and difficult to obtain. There is no harm if there are planning a business on the internet, quickly bought a domain for your website later.
