Is a Turnkey Online Business Right For You?

By: John King

If you are just starting an internet marketing venture, a “turnkey” online business may be something for you to consider. For the inexperienced internet marketer there are advantages for sure, however, there are also considerations and concerns as well. So proceed with caution with the following information in mind.

What Is A Turnkey Online Business?

Simply stated, a “turnkey” online business is a complete online business. In most cases just add a domain name and get a hosting account and you are in business. When compared to a traditional business franchise like a fast food or printing business where a location is predetermined and startup supplies and materials are provided as part of the package, a turnkey online business is much less costly to start. However, the common denominator is the need to generate traffic. A good turnkey online business or traditional franchise will provide a plan for opening your business designed to attract clients. However, getting someone to visit your website and click the buy button is another matter.

Following are descriptions, explanations and ideas to consider about turnkey websites and turnkey affiliate packages.

The Turnkey Website

The fundamental premise of a turnkey website is that someone has done all of the programming and page design requirements for you. You have the opportunity to get a website up and running in short order without having to understand html or other technical requirements. This is an appropriate spot to run up a caution flag.

Investing in a turnkey website is like buying a car. There are a number of options you can add on a car that will to make your driving experience more enjoyable – but it will cost you! With turnkey websites, you can buy one that is essentially a template that is described as a turnkey business but still requires you to add information and make choices about content and monetization or you buy a website that includes all of the whistles and bells with only personalization left for you to do.

An additional aspect to give careful consideration is how much support you will receive from the turnkey website vendor. Do they provide training modules, either video or manuals. Is there an online support system for you to submit questions. Do they have a forum that permits you to network with other users of the products you purchased.

My final thought on turnkey websites is to make sure the vendor provides at least a thirty day, no questions asked, money back guarantee. It is my experience that all quality vendors do provide this.

What About Turnkey Affiliate Systems?

There are many different types of turnkey affiliate systems that you will find as you scour the web.

The most extreme is one where you simply make a payment and you are given a website that is populated with the sellers products. Your role is to get traffic to the site with hope they will buy the vendor’s products for which you will receive a commission. Obviously, there are many spins on this approach.

Another form of turnkey affiliate business is one that is sold complete with content, sales page, graphics and monetized with Adsense ad layouts and in many cases Amazon ad code as well. All that is required is for you to add your Adsense and Amazon identification. If you have html skills in some cases you may be able to add other affiliate items to the site. These types of turnkey affiliate websites are found everywhere on the web. You can actually find them for no cost. But beware; you are sure to face temptation in the form of a one-time-only offer before you get to the download page.

The last type of turnkey affiliate business I will discuss is the one that actually does provide everything you need. I am familiar with one that is a subscription program that offers two levels of monthly packages. The fee for the smaller package is a little under one hundred dollars while the larger is just south of one hundred fifty dollars per month. You receive everything (the exception being you will still need to get a domain name and hosting account) you need for a quality website. In addition to the Adsense and Amazon products as discussed previously, a collection of at least twenty-five additional affiliate products is provided for you to choose from for monetizing your site, and you can look for more on your own if you wish. Training and support are both top notch.


In closing this article, I recommend that if you are truly a “newbie” and if you have the money, join or purchase a complete program similar to the one described in the last paragraph. It is an excellent way to become familiar with all aspects of establishing an online business.
