Your Website

[Audrey]

Everyday I see folks say "I'm now in business" and then I see a free website being used.

Ask yourself, when was the last time you did business with someone using a free website?

Ok, ask your friends and family.....when was the last time they did business with someone using a free website?

If you want to be in business, you need your own domain.

Thoughts?

Audrey, you are sooooo totally right. I did the "free hosting sites" before I was serious about my business. As I learned, I found out the benefits of having my own site/domain.

One of the biggie advantages was that I didn't have to have a bazillion ads that didn't do a dang thing but clutter up my site and lure my customers away. Once you educate yourself about marketing/advertising, you learn to add "good links". These links/ads should benefit you in some way so when the potential customers do leave, they will go in a direction that will help you both. ;)

Most free hosting site put their ads right on top, so yes, when folks come to your site, the first thing they see are ads for the company you are hosting your site with.
