Please give us a short summary of your website?
We offer a huge selection of new and used Harley Davidson motorcycles, parts, helmets, leather jackets, boots, clothing, toys, books, calendars, DVD's, etc. If it's Harley Davidson, we've got it!
What inspired you to launch your own website?
I've always loved motorcycles, and Harley's in particular, so this was a natural fit.
When did you launch your first website, and what was it?
This is my first website.
How did you decide on a name for your website?
WildHarleys.com fits what everyone who rides a motorcycle longs to be, wild and free.
What makes it different from other, similar offerings?
Our selection cannot be beat, and our prices are rock bottom. We ship anywhere in the world, and you can literally find any piece of Harley gear, be it a hard to find part for a 1954 Harley or Harley Davidson advertising from 1909. We've got it all.
What is your eventual goal? (To sell it, keep it for income, secure a book or other mainstream media deal?)
To become the number one source for Harley Davidson merchandise.
How does your investment of time and money balance against your success?
We've just started but the customers are already raving about our site.
If you had an unlimited development budget for development, how would you change your site?
Obviously if we had an unlimited budget we would spend more on advertising. Right now we are counting on word of mouth, and literally, once bikers find our site they are bookmarking it and coming back regularly. Our stock is updated every day, so the selection changes constantly.
If your site got really big, really quickly, would you be able to keep up with the demand?
Of course.
What unexpected costs and headaches have you had to deal with?
There have been no unexpected costs, knock on wood.
What has been your biggest challenge?
Nothing has really been a challenge. When you love motorcycles the site is a joy to run.
What method has been most successful for promoting your website?
Word of mouth. Our site is really one of those rare sites that people tell their friends.
How has running your website differed from your expectations?
It's exceeded my expectations. Bikers are great people.
How long have you run the site already, and how long will you continue to keep it up if you don't enjoy big gains in traffic, income or popularity?
We've only been open a short while but we will be around until they throw dirt in our face, as my father always said.
Why should people visit WildHarleys.com?
If they love motorcycles or Harley's in particular, they'll love WildHarleys.com. Whether you are looking for a motorcycle, parts, clothes, gifts for a Harley nut in your family, or just window shopping, stop by and take a look at our selection. You'll love our site. Thank you!
