Earn Money Making Websites

I'm launching a new program here at Yola.  We're calling it the Yola Experts Program, and it's about people getting paid to design websites for other people.

More info at:  yola.com/yep.html .

We've seen that it is very easy for most anyone to find local businesses, everyday people that they already know, who do not have a website, but would really benefit from having one.  Artists, restaurants, dentists, pubs, singers, gardeners, electricians, ... all of these are examples of businesses that our current Yola Experts have helped.

Our website building tool, Yola, is designed to be easy enough for anyone to use.  And it's free.  But sometimes people are too busy, so they need someone else to do it for them.  That's were Yola Experts come in.

Someone joining our Experts program can quickly learn the tool, then charge several hundred dollars per site as a design fee.  In the current economy, this is a great opportunity for anyone to create their own business making sites.

We also offer commissions to Yola Experts.  Any time a client buys something from Yola (such as a domain name), the Expert who is making the site for that client will receive 15% of the sale.

If you know of anyone who might be interested in trying this, please send them to www.yola.com/yep.html .

I'll look forward to training them on how to make money using Yola.  Thanks.
