More and more internet users want to have their own web site.

Thou the free services like Blogger and Squidoo were improved it is better to have your own domain and web hosting because you will have more control.

Plus having your own domain name is more professional.

And on your own site you decide what kind of website to build:

• ecommerce
• blog
• portal
• forum

Also you decide what platform and technology will be used (OS commerce, WordPress, Joomla, PHP BB, Flash or simple HTML code).

Here are a few tips on how to choose the right domain name:

1. The domain name must be short. You want people to go directly to your website and they must type it fast. For example gadgets-club.com is short but myweblogaboutgadgetselectronicsandtechnology.com is to long for a user to type it (no one will have the patience to write such a long domain name).

2. The domain name must be memorable. You want people to learn your site and come back.

3. The domain name must help you or your business. The idea is to help people find you and this is done by 2 ways: by having a brand as the domain or using a descriptive domain. Eg. Google.com is a brand name; gadgets.com is a descriptive one.

How to choose the right hosting plan

The best way is  to read the web hosting reviews, Usually you will find the most honest opinions on forums. So I suggest to start form there.

Blogs and comparison sites are also good places to get info.

Top tips about hosting

1. Test the support, It is vital to have good support! My method is to contact them via email, phone and chat and see how fast they respond. Also I ask them a lot of question including stupid ones to see if they have the patience and the skill to solve my problems.

2. See if they offer uptime guarantee. Most hosting companies will have their servers working 99.90% of time.

3. Look for money back  guarantee.

Promotional items can be a great way to advertise your business. I say “can be” because they are just marketing tools so it is up to you to use them the right way to get results.

You see to produce maximum effect you will have to be creative. Almost everyone who uses promo items is using the standard way: they just give away free stuff and hope for customers to come.

This is wrong. It will eat your marketing budget and will deliver poor results. You have to be smart and find a way to be different. I will give you some ideas and you can create more staring from there.

The Golden Rule: offer something  people want! Example: Don’t give a usb stick to someone who already has five.

You can use tradeshow giveaway items to make your business known. You can give away some free things if they are visiting your stand.

The simple way to get amazing results is to ask people if they need and want your products. You can offer on of the following 3 items:

• usb sticks
• mouse pads
• promotional caps

all with your logo of curse.

And just ask people it choose one.

This works great because:

1. It shows people you care. You aren’t just getting them a free product they never wanted; you offer them something they want for free.
2. It creates a relationship with these people
3. It creates the rarity factor. By giving just one of 3 products you say “Hey my promo products are valuable”
