Are You In a Position to Start an Online
Business?
© 2002
Angela Wu
When I first started my online
business, I did everything I
could to save a little money -- I didn't want a domain name,
not even for a mere $35/year (it was expensive back then!),
and I certainly didn't want to pay recurring monthly fees
for a web host.
That was a mistake. What I came to realize was simply
that
if I wasn't willing to make these small investments -- well,
I just wasn't in the position to be starting a business.
Sometimes the truth hurts!
I came to accept that I could learn from the experiences of
successful online entrepreneurs. From them, I learned
that
it just doesn't help to try to 'cut corners' on certain
things. So what are some of the things you need to get
started on the 'net?
- Your own domain. At
GoDaddy, http://www.godaddy.com/,
you can register a domain for a mere $8.95/year.
There is NO excuse not to have your own domain at these
rock- bottom prices! Your own domain will help
your business build credibility -- plus, it's easier to
remember a simple www.yourcompany.com
then something like, www.afreedomain.com/userpages/~yourname/homedir
!
- Web hosting. Don't skimp
on it, but don't get a whole bunch of features you don't
need, either. Be willing to spend money for a
reliable web host with a great uptime record, one that
can offer you excellent customer service. Start
your research at TopHosts, http://www.tophosts.com/
