Marketing Tips:
We suggest you use your domain name yourdomain.com
for
your email address, and set up extra email addresses for your friends,
family, staffs or visitors, this way, you are marketing your web site
everytime you or your email users give your/their email address away.
We also suggest you put your email address and web address www.yourdomain.com
(domain
name) at the end of your email (in your email signature), on your business
card and on promotional materials, and don't forget to put your web
address www.yourdomain.com
on
your web site so your visitor can remember it and check back to your
site easily. You can also give out free subdomain names to your site
visitors or your friends e.g. www.subdomain.yourdomain.com
so
everytime they give their web addresses out they will also promote your
web address.
Please note you will have to sign up for a separate account for each sub domain you want to creat under your domain name.
