Summary
Today's question comes from Will, who asks about website startup costs. What does it take to get a new niche site up and running? Will is talking about my niche site, Security Guard Training (http://www.securityguardtraininghq.com/). For keyword research, I used LongTail Pro (http://askpat.com/longtailpro). Market Samurai is another keyword tool (http://www.marketsamurai.com/), as is the Google Adwords Keyword Planning (https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner). For domain hosting, I recommend Bluehost (http://askpat.com/bluehost). I used a free WordPress theme to start that. For email, I used Aweber (http://www.aweber.com/askpat). I used Elance for help with writing (http://www.smartpassiveincome.com/elance). Do you have a question about starting a niche site? Record it at http://www.askpat.com/.

| 0:23.0 | All right, let's get to today's question from Will. |
| 0:25.1 | Hi, Pat. |
| 0:27.4 | My name is Will, and I'm a new listener to your podcast. |
| 0:33.4 | I've been listening to all your older episodes and I've been looking on your website quite a bit, and I've learned a lot from you. |
| 0:38.8 | I'm interested in starting my own website. It's similar to your security guard training website, |
| 0:44.6 | and I'm trying to get a feel for what the total startup costs would be for a basic website such as that. So if you could break down the total costs for one of your earlier websites such as your |
| 0:50.5 | security guard training one, I think that would be a huge benefit to all your listeners. |
| 0:55.6 | Looking on your website, you have a lot of resources that you use and pay for for all your |
| 0:59.6 | websites, and it's a little confusing as to what it takes to get just a very basic website |
| 1:04.3 | off the ground and monetized and making you money. So anyway, if you could just break down those |
| 1:09.9 | resources, tools, and the cost for each one, |
