Straight up....I think I mighta royally fucked up!
While the reseller rights I purchased was only $129 for 12 months, I'm kinda stuck.
Last night, I had one of those 3am "infomercial epiphany moments" whereas, I was seeing dollar signs. Jumped into a program figuring $129 for 12 mnths (including my reseller: domain, cheesy landing page and publishing) what a deal! .....*Sham wow!!!
O.k. so I guarantee some of you already may know what program I bought, after the next sentence:
Flash websites, includes hosting and domain, no HTML/CSS starting at $5.95 mth + $30 set up fee.(my cost = $100 for base pkg 1yr)
I got all amped up thinking, I'll easily double/triple my money each sale, and then today read sum disearning information about "flash sites".
Here's my dilema. Having just read why flash sites suck, I don't even wanna sell this product now. I didn't know beforehand how "SEO unfriendly" they really were.
Therefore, before I dump $1000-$1200 loading up on product before launching a campaign, and attempting to resell these packages at 45-50% mark-up...I gotta ask; "should I even care if they are SEO friendly?"
I have absolutely "NO INTENTIONS" of pretending to be a web-designer.
Instead, my "initial" idea was to focus on supplying people with little or no web-design (HTML/CSS/MySQL) experience a simple solution that allows them to create their own flash site in a short amount of time, pick a domain, "click" and publish.
I mean, the sites look o.k., the control panel is simplified and sorta fun, and $200-$300 (my retail to customer) per year seems logical for a domain, hosting, and a flash site....thus it seems marketable.
But should I pursue with it? or Just dump it and chalk it up as a $129 rookie mistake?
My concern isn't the money, it's more over establishing a "reputation" for being committed to selling quality tools & resources, and gaining a good repore by helping people succeed.
Again, I honestly think I can push em as they're user friendly & in essence cheap enough...but the fact it's not exactly SEO or Mobile friendly does have me concerned for my potential customers going unrecognized by search engines with shitty rankings.
Push em? or Dump it?
