Top Free Web Tools for Entrepreneurs

As an entrepreneur on a small budget, I like to pocket my profit and avoid spending whenever possible. In today's economy, you can't afford to waste your money. Check out my listing of the top FREE and affordable web tools for Entrepreneurs and Small Business Owners. Feel free to add your freebies to the list and/or share this list with others.

1. The best free web tool for every entrepreneur is of course paypal.com. I use paypal for everything; sending out invoices, setting up subscription payments, and creating shopping carts.

2. My cell phone is my primary line and that simply won't do as an entrepreneur. I spend little to nothing to make international calls on Skype and I host all my teleseminars, conference calls, and virtual meetings for Free using FreeConferenceCall.

3. Adding Video or Audio to your site doesn't have to cost you a thing! If you can't afford Go-to-Meeting, use UStream for live video streaming, it's free! PC Users take advantage of your free Movie Maker to create your own movies. For audio, download audacity, a free audio recorder. It's great for podcasting. I host my podcast on podbean for less than $5 a month, and I make money by adding a subscription fee to my premium podbean posts. In my podcast I share my e-business tips with other entrepreneurs.

4. I self publish all my books at no cost on lulu.com and use Kunaki to mass produce my CDs.

5. There is no better Free email service than g-mail. Google has tons of free small business solutions, from google analytics to Google Docs for word processing applications, which are great if you don't have MS Word or MS Office.

6. Do you want to keep track of your website and marketing campaigns. Use google analytics to track your stats. Signup for Google Alerts and create alterts on your name, website, or business to receive free email notifactions of any weblinks relevant to you. When creating a new alert, remember to put phrases and names in quotations. Try Google's free keyword tool if you need help with selecting keywords for your ads or SEO campaigns.

7. If you are looking for free software visit Download.com or the FreeSite.

8. You can try eFax for online faxing services. When I don't feel like paying for faxes, I simply scan my document and send via email as a pdf. Get's the job done without the extra hassle.

9. If you are looking for freelance work or a freelancer for your project, visit elance.com to promote your business or find inexpensive services.

10. Get access to tons of Free Templates for newsletters, calenders, invoices, and more at Microsoft Office's Small Business Templates page.

11. Quality images are so important for your business. Every week I am in need of professional images for my blogs, banners, photos for business material, eBook covers, etc. I get my clipart and stock photography graphics from iStockphoto.com for as little as $1.

12. For only $5 per month I make hundreds of dollars in weeks by selling my e-Books on e-junkie.com, the best website for selling digital content. I create all my eBooks using MS Word, Istock Photos, and I use a free webtool to convert my files to pdf format - PDF995.

13. Blogging is so important for my business. I get tons of Free Advice on Blogging from ProBlogger Darren Rowse, and Yaro Starak. Yaro even has FREE How-to-Blog video tutorials to help you build your first blog.

14. No Cost Marketing is my favorite kind of marketing. I promote my site for free online in tons of different ways. I created my own social networks for FREE on ning.com. I use free social bookmarking and networking sites like stumbleupon.com and twitter to share my posts with other entrepreneurs. With thousands of friends on Myspace and Ning, I hardly ever pay for advertising.

15. When I am not on my Ning website, I am networking with people on yahoo groups and meetup.com.

16. For Creating a Blog, there is no better Free Blog Publishing Tool than Wordpress. Here is a listing of over 45 Free premium word press themes.

17. Send out your press releases using PRLeap and PRWeb.

18. The best free websites to host your videos are of course youtube.com and blip.tv.

20. For the most affordable web hosting plans and domain name registration I suggest godaddy.com and hostmonster.com.

These are just a handful of free web tools and smalll business resources that I feature in my eBook, the Web Entrepreneurs Back Pack. I created this guide to give you access to over 500 web tools, so that you never have to waste your precious time searching for the right resources. You can download this ebook by itself or get it in a collection of my 3 Best Guides featuring information about Internet Marketing, Selling Your Products and Services online and finding affordable Small Business Services Online.

Selling Your Products and Services Online

I am a full time web entrepreneur / work at home mom, so I know the value of a dollar. When I don't work, my bills don't get paid, which is why I am working all the time! I am selling 24/7 - marketing tools, eBooks, ad space, Adsense, even books and hair grease from amazon.com! What makes me an expert at what I do is that unlike many, I am actually making the sale. I don't have a brick and mortar location, I don't spend my entire budget on ad space, I am not a twitterholic, but I do get money in my paypal account every single day!

I understand that my story isn't necessarily your story. I work with entrepreneurs who purchase my eBooks and ad packages and get great results. And I work with others who pay for advertising from me or others and never make a sale. I really feel for the latter group, because I know how frustrating it is to put yourself out there and not get the results you want. But here is the thing that many just don't understand, "Advertising is a big thing, but it is not the only thing."

In my almost 10 years of working online, I have learned so much and there are a few important points I want to share with you. First and foremost, understand that you cannot focus on one marketing solution to grow your business. Social Networking can help you grow your business if you know how to use in the right way. If you have no clue how to make money online, don’t be afraid to learn from someone who does. Now I don’t believe you should follow every self-proclaimed guru out there, but I do believe in learning from experts with proven track records and real online businesses.

I have already proven to my clients and readers that I know how to make the sale. When they are looking for advice and trying to find answers, they come to me with their questions. It is because of their questions that I sat down and created my latest eBook, ‘Selling Your Products and Services Online.’ I wanted to create my own blueprint to share with my coaching students and frustrated entrepreneurs alike. I talk about all the mistakes web entrepreneurs make, how to fix them and how to avoid them. I talk about effective ways to set up your website and how to use social media to find new customers. I talk about what it takes to create your own market, find your niche, and connect with clients. I share all the untold facts about what it takes to make the sale and I even share my secrets to making money with affiliate programs.

If you are struggling with sales and itching to ask me questions, I suggest downloading a copy of this eBook. I want to give you access to all that I know , which is why I have also included two bonus eBooks in your download, ‘Internet Marketing – The Big 5’ and ‘The Web Entrepreneur’s Back Pack’. On top of that Bonus, I am giving you a Web Entrepreneur Exclusive $10 Discount Code: WEB10.

One more Bonus! If you purchase this eBook this month, I will personally send you an invitation for 2 Free Months Membership in the Business Women of Color Silver Program. There you will get access to even more e-Book Downloads, templates, audio, video, how-to articles from me and Small Business Expert / Multi-Million Dollar Mompreneur, Richelle Shaw. This pack actually costs $80, and you will get it for free when your purchase my new book.

I hope to see you on Business Women of Color (www.businesswomenofcolor.com).
