1. Why should I start a web design business with SiteSwan? Starting a web design business with SiteSwan is an ideal opportunity for savvy entrepreneurs. Web design services is a $40 billion dollar industry in the US. The industry is growing at a rapid pace and the demand for responsive websites will continue to rise in the coming years.
What’s driving this demand? It all comes down to the premise that every small business needs a website. However, nearly 40% of businesses still don’t have one. The reason is that they don’t want to build one themselves, and they also don’t have $3,000+ to hire a traditional web design firm to do it for them. That’s where you come in. As a SiteSwan Website Reseller, you can build agency-quality websites at “do-it-yourself” prices.
- Web design services is a $40B industry
- There’s over 28 million small businesses in the U.S.
- Majority of these small businesses don’t have a GOOD website
- Over 500,000 new businesses are started every month
- EVERY one of these businesses needs a website
- SMB’s don’t want a DIY (do-it-yourself) solution
- Most agencies are too expensive ($3,000 or more for a basic site)
- SiteSwan sites are the perfect fit (affordable, mobile friendly, search optimized)
2. How do you make money as a SiteSwan Website Reseller? As a SiteSwan Website Reseller, you make money selling websites to small businesses. You’re in full control over your pricing and can charge as much or little as you want. Our minimum suggested retail price is $500 for the setup and launch of a typical 5-page website, followed by a $50/month website service fee. We’ve found that this price point works really well in just about any market because it’s affordable and attractive to businesses of any size.
But that’s not to say you can’t charge more - you can charge any price you want. We have resellers who charge $1,500 or $2,000 for the setup fee, and $100 or more per month. This is PER SITE.
You can earn additional income by selling complementary products and services. For example, SiteSwan’s Reputation Management feature is the perfect up-sell to websites. You can help your clients monitor their online reviews from the top review sites, get more five star reviews, and even help prevent negative reviews from going public. The suggested retail price (SRP) for this service is $99-$199/month alone, so there is a lot of money to be made.
