Free Isnt Always Good - 5 Reasons Why You Need Your Own Website
Often time I've browsed sites and seen the same thing - general rep websites or free hosted sites. Pop ups irritate me from the free sites as does the blatant ads getting in the way of the text, and if you have seen one rep site you literally have seen them all. Boring, unoriginal, and unprofessional. But after all they are free, and free is good right? Wrong - not when it comes to your image online. Regardless of the business you are in, it's important you have your own website. Meaning you have a unique domain name with purchased hosting. There are many benefits to owning your own website and I'll explain why: 1. Ability to Track Visitors While some free hosting companies offer the ability to edit your pages and add trackers, general rep sites usually do not. 2. Eliminates unwanted information/ads 3. Ability to give your site a personal feel 4. Creates a Professional Look 5. Ability to Edit Pages for SEO purposes There are of course other reasons why you need your own website - such as for many directories that do not accept links from anything but top-level domains (like www.yourdomain.com). Domain names are very reasonable, costing around $8 per year while hosting costs as low as $6/month. Domain and hosting companies are everywhere, it just depends on what your needs are. For small websites I recommend Mommy's Helper ( http://www.mommyshelper.com/web-hosting.html ) This is cost you can't afford to cut out of your business budget.
