Cheap Hosting and Domain Registration

A long time ago, when I just started with my online business, there weren’t that many choices of hosting companies
to work with.
The first company I used was Godaddy.
GoDaddy grew very big in the DotCom era, and are one of the most popular hosts until this time.
This is no accident, as they provide one of the best most well rounded services in the world for domain owners.
They provide hosting also, plus many many “bonus” features.
I say “Bonus” just because they are not free like regular Bonuses, however they provide many extra services
that other companies just don’t. So I see them as Bonus features.

After a while, when the DotCom bubble kinda blew up, and well, most of the yourname.com domains were
no longer available
, many other post-fixes came into the market (i.e .net .org .co.uk etc),
as well as a new type of host – Green hosts.

With the environmental build up in the world, domain hosts such as DreamHost realized that they too have to
consider their customers feelings, and started promoting, as well as operating Green hosting.
Green hosting means that they use the minimum necessary energy to operate their Server farms,
some hosts even donate to environmental organizations parts of their revenue – All in the name of
customer satisfaction
. Many people these days, like me,  consider this a very important attribute.

However – the problem remained the same – Most of the yourname.com, or even anyshortname.com
domains are long since taken. One has to be very creative, very lucky, or settle for a long domain name
that no one could remember
.

Then one company said – no more. That company is Global Domains International.

In the web industry is it always hard to identify pioneers and the forward thinking people who can take
a simple concept and turn it into a big opportunity. Global Domains International could be identified as a
pioneering company when it comes to offering domain registration services that could provide you
with a steady income, in more than one way
.
At a time when the dot com domains have filled up and people are on the lookout for an alternative
way to get their businesses noticed on the internet, GDI has supplied that alternative
.

GDI has locked down the entire .WS market, thus creating a full out Internet revolution
With a .WS address you can stand out above the rest, and gain a completely new level of presence that is no longer
possible with an obscure dot com address.
Not only that, but GDI also provide you with all the services a host like Godaddy Supplies you with, plus
the service you’d expect from hosts like the Green DreamHost. Personally it took me about 5 minutes on the
clock to decide to move my domains from GoDaddy to them, and ofcourse get a .Ws domain on my own name.
Haven’t looked back since!
I get full hosting service, Total flexibility, SEO services, and all I need to concentrate on my business.
Over time I kept on registering more domains, hey – The names are available, easy and short, why not use it?

That’s what I recommend folks!
You see listed above my three most favorite hosting companies, and of course – The Host I chose at the end.
The only thing wrong with the first two hosts is – You’ve guessed it – They CAN’T register .Ws names,
therefore they are still stuck with the same ever shrinking supply of Domain names.

Get your business it’s own .Ws Domain Here.

Cheers!

Where’s the Traffic?

As any new online businessman knows – If no one sees you,
You’re not really there.
You can have the swanky coolest site in the world, but with no one to appreciate it,
visit it and maybe tell his friends about it – it’s worth close to nothing,
and buying traffic on top of all is not the thing you had in mind

This blog writes about an internet newbie that Earned over 3000$ in 24 Hours…!

Amazing? Yes.
It doesn’t happen like that for most people.
Specially for new comers.

For this case I’d like to recommend to you a company that does nicely
to make life easier for her customers – Affiliate Express.
They recognize the need for a new marketer to have a base, and realize
that not all new marketers have set up a domain, or a website..
They offer to make things a bit easier.

What Affiliate Express does it to actually build the website for you.
You will have to register at Amazon and AdSense, and 3 days later
you will get a “Turnkey” website.
A Turnkey website is a site that goes up like the turn of a key…
Yes, hence the name. Plug and Play if you will.

Inside the management dashboard you’ll find the ability to customize
your new website, decide if you wanted Amazon products in it, Google ads,
or even put in the whole HTML code if you’d like..
They will take care of the rest, or most of the rest.
The Plus side – You get promoted by them.
This means you won’t have to worry about traffic from zero, you will have help
promoting your site, thus making your chances of selling your products,
or the products you promote much much faster.

This is just one easy business solution.

I have used this program, and only left it when I got marketing
experience, and could build and manage a total website by myself.
Until then it was a great easy way for me to promote my business AND get sales
“by the way” from amazon and Google.

So which are you? A builder? A newbie?
Do you even have your business up yet?
If not – This is definitely an option…!

Good Luck.

Take-off

Im not going to beat around the bush here..

What do YOU want to do?

In my opinion, the fastest way to start earning some cash is trying to lock on
a niche product, and promote just that product to save on advertising.

Many Campaigns = Much Money Spent

This “Niche Product” is a pretty abstract term, when you think about it..
At the easiest case all you’ll need is a little writing capability, and a subject
to write about.
You may write about every subject that comes to your head – It’s free to write,
and afterwords you can sell it too…
All you need is people who want to know more about that subject.

So a strategy could be submitting an article to some free article directory,
and from that article attract people who want to know more about the subject
by a linking to your product. Very easy.

Not everything you write is a sure hit -
But this is a free way for you to try and earn some money.

Here are some good places to get yourself started on selling products:

  1. Articles with Resell rights
  2. Branded Content
  3. PLR Wholesale

These can help you get started even if you can’t write, or just don’t like to!
There are numerous ways to get content if you don’t have the skill.
Some are free and some will cost you money, it’s up to you to decide in the end:
Which Product, and How to acquire it.

Here’s also a nice useful list of mistakes made by marketers.. A Nice reference.

Good luck!
