Networking Tech Tips

There are many reasons you want to have your own domain name:

• Easier to put on a business card
• Looks more professional
• Easier to remember
• Etc.

Would you rather send someone to a webpage with this URL:

www.GenericCompany.com/distributor/id88374.htm

 . . . or this:

www.TheMostExcellentOpportunity.com

It's easy to get your own domain and point it to whatever long URL you are using. To register a domain (for only $9.95 a year!), go to:

http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/domains/

You can search for a doman and purchase it if it is available.

Once you have your domain registered, go to the Domain Control Panel and set up the domain forward. All you need to do is type the link you want your domain to foward to, and anytime someone types in your new domain, it will send them to your current (long) domain.

It's that easy!
