Earn Money With Parked Domain Names

Filed under: Getting A Domain — admin @ 8:10 am

Do you have domain names that you are not currently using?

Did you know that these domains can actually become a source of revenue for your online business?

There are several companies on the internet that will pay you to redirect your domain to a landing page, filled highly relevant PPC (pay per click) links. The links displayed on your landing page will be optimized based on what keywords are in your domain, and what links previous visitors have been interested in looking at. You can earn real money every time one of your visitors clicks a link on your landing page, in addition to guaranteed ad revenue for each and every unique visitor that you recieve. All this revenue building up month after month can form into a very nice income stream for your business.

Considering the fact that you can earn up to $5.00/click (depending on your domain, and what country your traffic comes from) with this type of program, there is no doubt that domain parking can be an extremely lucrative practice. If you would like to learn more about how to start earning money with your unused domain names and be recieving paycheques by the end of next month, please click here…

Your Domain Name, Your Business Address

Filed under: Getting A Domain — admin @ 10:06 am

Would you purchase anything from someone with a “@yahoo.com” or “@hotmail.com” e-mail address? I certainly wouldn’t! For starters, people using these e-mail addresses give others the impression that they’re not taking their business seriously.

Now I understand that you don’t want your regular e-mail address in ads that you run on free ad sites to prevent spam, but let’s look at this matter constructively.

If you don’t buy anything from Yahoo! off-line, why would you buy from a Yahoo! online? If you’re serious about your business you have to show it through your actions. And the first action to take is to buy your own domain name and use it for all of your e-mails.

Let’s say you are to purchase a product from me. Will you be quicker to purchase from me and trust me if my e-mail address is “edmund@ebizmodelsyoucancopy.com” or if you read an ad from “edmund@yahoo.com?” I’m the same person, but which e-mail address makes you trust me more and believe I’m operating a legitimate business?

If you’re not ready to put up a website, create a professional presentation with your e-mails. They’re your main form of communication online and it’s the main brand people see when you communicate. Every time you send an e-mail you’re advertising. Do you realize that you’ll never make decent money online if your e-mail address ends with “@hotmail.com”?

When you come up with a name for your website or Internet Business get a .com or .biz entity, not a .net, .info or any other domain entity. Why?

When you want to send a package overnight what company do you think of first? Probably Federal Express (FedEx). This is simply because they were the first company to do overnight shipping. You can use UPS or Airborne Express or some of the other smaller companies, but FedEx is the company that gets the most business because they’ve practiced the idea of overnight shipping in the first place. On the same analogy, you need to have a .com domain because that’s where visitors will go first no matter how many new domain endings are created years and years from now.

If you have any other domain name then you’ll be setting yourself up to lose visitors to whoever has the .com domain for your name. Outside of earthlink.net how many .nets come to your mind right now? On the other hand, how many .coms can you think of?

When you hear about a cool company and want to see if they have a website, do you try their name with a .com or with a .net or .info or .tv first? If I’m a compulsive gambler, I’ll bet all my money and assets that you will try the .com first every time and you always will because it’s always going to be your first choice before any other domain entities.

So if you haven’t already, get a great domain name for your Internet Business and buy it before it gets taken. This is a small price to pay for a huge investment. If you’re not willing to invest a few dollars then you don’t have a business. If you want to be taken seriously by your prospects, take your domain name just as serious. This can mean life or death for your Internet Business in its initial stages of birth.

Cheap Domain Transfers

Filed under: Getting A Domain — admin @ 11:05 am

You may decide to transfer your domain for not getting adequate services for the money you are spending. A domain transfer is in effect a domain registrar transfer as it means the transfer of the name from one registrar to another. Nowadays you have got more than a hundred registrars to choose from.

For transfer of domain, you should apply to the gaining registrar, as it is responsible for the operation. It is the duty of the gaining registrar to ensure that the application for transfer by the domain owner is a valid one. The validation usually is in the form of an email sent to the admin contact that requires a reply. In some cases, however, signed faxes are used. Losing registrars these days may resort to ‘double-checking.’ In this case, they will perform additional security checks if you seek transfer from them. The losing registrars may ask you to reply to an email, or dispatch a notarized letter.

There are a large number of registrars that provide cheap rates for transfer of domain names. Most of them charge less than $10 for the first year and adds another additional year to your present registration term. Moreover, many of them have special prices for bulk domain transfers if you have more than one name to transfer.

Some of the registrars offer complete email for all new domain registrations, transfers and renewals. Get your own personalized email address and 25MB total storage. They are absolutely free. If the transfer fails for one reason or the other, they will refund your fee. The rate of discount sometimes depends on the domain you want to register because some domain extensions are costlier than others.

GoDaddy, TopBusinessDomains, LuckyRegister, IndiaInternets, Domain Names help4u, 2CreateAWebsite, Namecheap, and RegisterFly are some of the places where you can look for cheap domain transfer.
