This is a great time to start an online business! Many of the tools you need to build and grow are marked down. The Black Friday deals you'll find here are for bloggers and solo business owners who might be using free versions of these products. If that's you, it's a great time to upgrade your plan as prices have been cut and the savings are amazing.
You'll see a brief description of the company offering the deal, so that you'll know if they offer services you need. Then there's a separate paragraph that describes the deal. Be sure to read the deal in its entirety to make sure you have everything you need (like any codes or dates) to get the deal you want.
The Countdown to Cyber Monday
The Deals are Done for 2022!
Some of these deals don't show an end date, so if you're interested in taking advantage of the savings you might want to act quickly. There are also a couple of opportunities to win a MacBook Air M2 and I've listed the companies that are offering those contests.
I've categorized the deals and placed a countdown timer to Cyber Monday when this year's deals will come to an end.
