Hello World!
www.GiftsBuyMarket.com is finally out there in the big world wide web. It has been a long drawn out battle between my mind and my computer to put this website together. I am learning new things every day.
It all started one January day when I thought, hey a website would be nice. You know generate more income, perhaps retire from my legal secretarial job one day! The life long dream of mine, is to be self-employed at something I love doing.
I had actually started building another website, casbahelectronics.com, but I was not happy with it at all. The warehouse I was using was great as for as the quantity of merchandise it offered. The problem was, that a good amount of the products the warehouse offered were without any descriptions and pictures. I am not lazy by any means, but night after night of research was beginning to take its toll. I was paying an online website builder. You know the kind, the ones were you pay for use of their site and you build your own website. I wasn’t happy with the look and feel of Casbah. I didn’t feel the builder site offered the tools that I needed to build an e-commerce store properly.
Upon the millionth time, okay I am exaggerating here a bit, of searching, I can across something I could really use and I really like the concept of this other website builder. I thought to myself, can I build another website and be happy with it. Let Casbah go, the blood, sweat and tears!
I scratched Casbah Electronics altogether, even the name, and decided to build GiftsBuyMarket.com. Did I lose money? Yes I did, quite a bit. Do I still have to do research? Yes I do, because I believe in giving our customers a great deal. I research everything. Was it worth it to give up one website and start over fresh? I believe it was worth it. Even if I never make a dime, I have learned a lot and I have the comfort of knowing that I did a good job and with a site I am happy with. Knowledge is priceless!
