24 TOOLS AND SERVICES WE USE TO RUN OUR ONLINE BUSINESS

There comes a time in your business where using the free tools and services won’t give you the leverage you need to grow your business. Investing in your online business. It’s what allows you to scale and grow your income.

1. Hosting with Cloudways & Cloudflare

Cloudways is the web hosting platform we use. We’ve used several others before. Websynthesis previous to Cloudways who were great. Sadly they were taken over by a way more expensive company. 

2. Email software provider

Ontraport is the system I used for six years for managing and sending out emails to our subscribers. It’s robust and powerful and makes your email communication much stronger with your subscribers. You can do in-depth tagging and targeted emails, which makes your communication much better.

3. Last Pass

I use LastPass as a way to store all my passwords and login information. I couldn’t operate without it. I upgraded to the paid account so I could access it on mobile as well. Super important for a travel blogger! 

4. Project Management Software

To be honest, I am not very good at using project management software. I feel like it’s just another thing for me to manage. So I often keep it all in my head or traditional pen and paper. 

5. Wetransfer- File Transfer

If you need to transfer large files to someone, wetransfer is a great option – easy and effortless. There is a free account where you can upload 2GB max each time.

6. Screen Recording: Jing & Camtasia
