A common question or challenge some online marketers face is the technical side of the business. If this is THE area that you struggle in, I’d suggest you spend 10 minutes right now and figure out some possible questions to ask yourself:

Is it about how to use WordPress?

Can I do some graphics work to improve the look and feel of my site?

Do I know how to create opt-in forms and contact forms?

Is it about how to register domains, set up hosting, and get ranked on the first page of Google?

Do I know the various “service” aspects like video distribution, article distribution, link building, etc.

OK, after creating your list, you should be MUCH clearer on what your ‘tech’ problems are. Now, let’s cover some solutions you can use…

Solution 1:  Elance / oDesk

Use Elance and oDesk to find several people who fit your descriptions. And give each of them a small project to “test” them out. It might cost you a few dollars to $30 to do these small projects, but the end result is priceless, assuming you find somebody you can count on and build a relationship with, to solve your technical problems.

Solution 2: Your Local College Students

Call up your local college, university, technical college, or community college and talk to people at computer lab as well as professors related to the Internet courses. And ask them who their best students that are sharp and technical wiz kids are. And that you have a quickly growing online consulting firm in your area, looking to give local students valuable real-world experience and you are willing to pay $10 an hour (or whatever amount you decide on.)

Solution 3:  Web Support Team

Using Web Support Team is like getting your own team of internet experts. You can get All the Tech Help You Need to build and run your online business. They are capable of doing a lot of ‘tech’ tasks for you. Some may require more money, but at the end of the day, it’s VERY inexpensive.  You can also request custom tasks to be completed as well.

To sum it up

First of all, write out all of the “tech” things you need someone else to do for you. Get them out of your head and onto paper, so you can actually take action on it, and eliminate a lot of the stress and overwhelm it has caused you.

Secondly, decide which route you are going to take to outsource your tech stuff and take your first step immediately to make it happen. You may use more than one option over time; however, to keep your life easier, just pick one of them for now and TAKE THE FIRST STEP… because it will put you into motion and start creating drive for yourself.
