About Us
Hello,
and thank you for checking out our "ABOUT US" page!
We, Don &
Francesca, are a father-daughter team and co-owners of discovering-sanfrancisco.com, we
hope that this site has been enjoyable and useful for you and that you
will visit often!
We would like to take a little time to tell you a bit about us and how
we came to owning discovering-sanfrancisco.com.
Don & Francesca
We are a father-daughter team who both live in the Bay Area. My dad,
Don, resides in the Sunset District of San Francisco, where he is
semi-retired & always looking for something new to do!
I, Francesca, live in Oakland and am a photographer- always looking for
a way to work for myself! And though my dad and I come from two TOTALLY
different generations (baby boomers vs generation X) we are very much
alike in that we both want to work for ourselves, we have the gift of
gab and agree that the Bay Area is one of the most beautiful places in
the world!
You see, for as long as I can remember my father has always been an
entrepreneur, a modern-day Renaissance man - and because I am my
fathers' daughter- so am I!
So one day we pondered the idea of working together- & it made
sense- so we then started to look for different niches that suited us
both.
That's when Site Build It! came into our lives.
Don's Side
Once upon a time I wanted to build an Internet business, (heard that
song and dance before?) and for the past five years I think I tried
everything from website hosts to affiliate programs and the results
were always the same; I ended up wasting a lot of time, spending a lot
of money... & ending up with nothing!
For example; I signed up with a web host who guaranteed to get my
website up and running, AND it was cheap- only $20 to $30 a month and
$10 a year for your domain name and they would help you do everything
(yep- heard that one before).
But what I found out was you also had to buy the design program to
design your website. That runs you $1000 to $1500! Then it got worse-
you also had to submit your web pages to Google, Yahoo & Ask and
all the other search engines (costing MORE money); you had to find and
research your own key words, spending even more money.
So by the time you're through you've spent a few thousand dollars and
you STILL don't have a website that's up and running. Thank goodness
for those guarantees- I was able to recoup some of my money; which took
six months of wasting time with the phone calls and e-mails before I
got the money.
So then I was frustrated, becoming depressed and out of work. I wasn't
able to find a job because I was overqualified (their kind way of
saying you're too old) & was about to be living on Social Security.
But I didn't give up.
I knew there had to be a company out there that was honest and upfront-
could make me money and not take my life savings at the same time. And
then- I founded it. It's called Site Build
It!.
So not taking any chances I called my daughter Francesca in San
Francisco, who by the way had a website but after about a year she
closed it due to low-yielding results.
Although I knew my daughter is a big skeptic when it comes to work at
home Internet programs- I asked her to take a look at Site Build
It! anyway and tell me what she thought about it. Not only was she
impressed by the layout of the program- but when she read the
testimonials and viewed the sites that were built- she was interested!
So the first thing we were looked for were the hidden costs. We were
shocked- actually stunned in disbelief when we found out there were
none. We finally found the company that's honest, upfront, successful
& proven! (& they don't even charge to register your domain
name. It's included... among so much more) So we decided to try Site Build
It!
Site Build It! 10 step program- (all on video-)
teaches you, step-by-step, how to build your website. With helpful and
insightful tools along the way they help you with everything from your
concept to your sites organization to a blueprint of what information
your site will hold to web hosting... and SO much more! (I never
thought of building a blueprint of a website before I tried to put it
online. But it makes sense. You wouldn't build house or an office
building without a blueprint, right? Well same goes for your website!)
And it gets better! They help you find the right keywords for each one
of your Web pages to maximize profit and hit your target market with
TOP web-industry technology that gives you current and a up-to-date
statistics for supply, demand & profitability.
It gets EVEN better! They automatically submit your web pages Google
Yahoo and the other major search engines. They also help you with your
web page design, step by step, using either their easy to use templates
or if you're design savvy you can design your own by uploading your own
HTML. Guess what?? ALL at NO EXTRA charge!
Site Build It! also has open forums where you can
ask questions to fellow website owners and get tips & techniques
along the way! Plus so much more!
Site Build It! is like a family sharing a wealth
of information to get your website up and running, and always there
when you need help!
Francesca's Side
About 5 years ago my dad came up to me and said that he wanted to start
an Internet business together, heck after the "dotcom" era- didn't we
all? I was going to college full time, studying photography and working
as a waitress.
Even though I was making decent money- I've always had bigger and
better goals (I even tried to sell my photos online- but failed
miserably) and the thought of working for myself sounded sweeter and
sweeter- so I told my dad I was in.
It wasn't that easy! Poor guy- year after year he spent so much time
and money trying program after booklet after e-book, all of them
promising results and all coming up with the same- NOTHIN!
He had almost given up until one day he called me up and told me to go
to the computer right away- so I did. He gave me a URL to look up and
said- "Chess (my nickname) take a look at this and tell me what you
think." WORD FOR WORD- then he hung up - didn't tell me what is was
about or any other information- just to look it up.
So I did. And that's when I found Site Build
It! I read the first page over and over, then watched the
testimonials and saw the websites - it sounded too easy- too good to be
true- so I called my dad. I told him that this program was just the
thing we had been looking for- but there HAD to be a catch!
We searched and searched- there's NONE! Site Build
It! is totally & utter 100% honest and upfront about their
program. And when you've seen as many dishonest ones as my dad and I-
that's SUCH a relief!
After we got the program I got REALLY nervous- I wasn't sure what I had
just gotten myself into- if it was a mistake- I didn't know ANYTHING
about HTML and Java script and web building - how was I going to build
a website? But Site Build It! took care of ALL that! Really!
The video tutorial is SO simple- you just follow along! (It's a video
from the computer so you can work while you learn plus the video has a
text version too if you like hard copies!) They ease your mind with
easy to understand language and since it's a video you can always stop
and go back!
The web templates are creative and are provided at NO EXTRA CHARGE!
They help you build your website with brainstorming, concepts,
research, development, analyzing, design and so much more! They teach
you the RIGHT way of making a website- not the FAST- GET RICH QUICK
way- which trust me- never works!
I am so proud of my dad and I! We took our dream and made it a reality
with a program that ANYONE could use- as long as you have time,
patience and the drive to succeed-Site Build
It! gives you ALL the tools needed to make it happen!
