Plan B: Free Web Site + Pay-As-You-Go Services

Monday, December 14th, 2009

Okay, so you tried the free site or at least looked into it. It is okay, but you want more…

This plan is for you:

  1. Buy your domain name.
  2. Get a free hosting and content management account for your site, that has no set-up and no on-going fees. (such as the services in Plan A)
  3. Add other services that provide more ease and return on investment, such as event registration and email management services.

Check my post about Best in Class Resources for specific vendors.

Plan A: Do It Yourself for FREE

Monday, December 14th, 2009
  1. Get a free account for your site, that has no set-up and no on-going fees. (E.g. – Google Sites, Blogger or WordPress)
  2. I do not recommend doing this, but… you can even decide to skip buying a domain name and just name your blog and let the address for your site reveal which service you are using. Once your domain name is gone, it is ridiculously hard to acquire it. At least consider buying yourname.com.

Examples:

Plan B and C coming soon.
