Don’t stop moving…

Success.

What is success?  How can we define it?

Some people say it’s when you have a large bank account.  Others claim it comes around when we achieve true happiness.  And I’m sure some folks only think that when their boss tells them they did a good job, they are successful.

For me, success comes from my thinking and my continuing actions.

If you make any kind of upward progress toward a goal, you are immediately successful.  Creating some wish, some goal and then actively working to achieve, makes you a success.

Whether you get there or not, that’s not the ultimate definition.  The trip is more important than the destination.

And guess what?

You will find satisfying things to see along the journey.  So don’t worry.

Now…think about this:

ESL students are predominantly more successful than ESL teachers.

Why?

If you meet a student who has been studying English for many years, the fact they can talk and understand you is evidence they’ve been progressively working toward a goal for a long time.

Yet they don’t speak perfect English like the teacher, so the trip isn’t over yet.  They are still walking on their path.  And if they are seeking an ESL teacher LIKE YOU, this is further evidence that they are acting in a successful way.

Now when it comes to most online ESL teachers, how many are consistently working to improve themselves everyday or every week in the “English learning world” AND the business of it therein?

Is the ESL teacher learning more about their craft and/or their business of making money?

As a teacher, what are YOU doing everyday to make your online English school better?  How are you progressively working to find more students?  Are you learning how to sell more lessons?  Do you want to make yourself a better person so as to help your life and thus the student?

If you create an online English school and just sit and wait for the ESL student to arrive, you will fail.

Creating a website once and not touching it again will make you fail.

Giving a sales pitch on Skype without understanding the mechanics of what’s happening won’t allow growth.  YOU WON’T BE SUCCESSFUL.

I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again: you must be proactive.  Progress makes perfect.

Progress MAKES perfect!

The secret in creating a thriving online English school is movement.  Don’t sit and wait for students to come to you.  YOU must dance and jive to get noticed.

Do something everyday and the world will do something for you everyday as well.

If you read this post, please watch this video, understand it, set a goal, and then start walking toward it, and you will instantly be a success.  That’s all it takes.

I’ve heard a ton of stuff about Twitter for the past while.  I’m really curious about it.  It’s like a super small scaled-down version of a blog that got thrown in a blender with text messaging.

If you aren’t familiar with Twitter, watch this quick video that explains it perfectly:

I just signed-up this morning after I woke up.  I’m under the user name, skypeteacher.Feel free to become one of my newest “followers.”  Discover my day-to-day inner thoughts, actions, and workings.  Be warned!

And for YOU…I’m really excited about the idea of online English teachers using Twitter to stay in better contact with current and prospective $tudents.

Imagine…here’s a situation on how Twitter might help:

1.  Your student Keiko is at home studying English, and she has a quick question about a vocab word.  So she Twitters you (in only 140 characters or less), you respond right away, and she is now happy.

2.  Other students start “following” you and discover just how great you are by answering Keiko and other students all the time. Remember, it’s like a blog, and all of your “followers” can read whatever you post to each student.

3.  So as a result of you and Keiko knowing each other, one of her friends discovers you, likes you as a teacher, starts “following” you, eventually meets you on Skype, and thus pays you for a lesson.

Here’s another scenario:

1.  You start developing many “followers.”

2.  You Tweet a mini quiz to them every day in 140 characters or less, “Pop quiz: Make a sentence using the words “travel” and “boat” and “crazy.”

3.  Students start responding.

4.  You fix the mistakes.

5.  They love it and tell their friends about you.

6.  New students are excited about you.

7.  They want to meet you on Skype.

8.  You find new paying online ESL students :)

Quick marketing idea:

1.  You Tweet a message, “I’m offering a 50 minute vocab lesson on Skype for the first student who buys it. Only $5.00 (normally $25) http://YourWebsite/vocab”

2.  A first time student clicks on the link.

3.  Student then buys it.

4.  You give a fantastic lesson.

5.  Student soon buys a package deal of 5 lessons for $125.  Done!

It’s hard to say if Twitter will work for online English teahers or not (I’m not psychic).  But I am optimistic and confident!

So today, jut go out and tell all of your students about Twitter, encourage them to “follow” you, and then see what happens.  And try to put some pictures up on your website that links to your Twitter profile page too.

Remember, the more you put into this experiment, the more you’ll get back.  So make a goal to send at least one post a day.  It can only be 140 characters or less, so it’s not a lot!  Half a minute a day :)

You can use Twitter from your cell phone or on the web.  It seems convenient!  And if you’re using FireFox as your browser, here are 8 cool plugins.

Last thought:

I believe it would be kind of cool if all of us online English teachers stayed connected and starting networking with each other.  So if you’re a little reluctant to try out Twitter with your online English students because you’ve never tried Twitter before, let’s all practice it together.

	My newest e-book is coming soon! This one will be hot!

Just to give everyone an update, I’m currently working on a NEW e-book.  This one will work hand-in-hand with How To Teach English Online and Get Money.  I’m sure it will help all online English teachers GREATLY.  I plan on selling them separately, but I might offer them as a bundle deal at a reduced cost.  What do you think?

Should I offer a discount to the many who have already purchased How To Teach English Online and Get Money?  How much of a discount would you expect?

If you’re curious as to what it’s about, you’ll have to send me an email or a Skype chat to find out.  Oh how mysterious!

Anyway, I plan on launching it within a week or two.  Be patient :)

Do you want to be an online English teacher who makes money from home?  I know you have what it takes to succeed.  Let me help you!  If you subscribe to my free email newsletter, you will get a DEEP discount on the e-book.  Click here after you watch the video:

Were you born in one those 5 countries?

These countries are widely known across the world as English speaking countries where English is the dominant language.  Sure, there are many other countries that say English is part of their official language, but ESL students would never think of them that way.  Check out Wikipedia for the list of countries where English is an official language.

Anyway, if you were born in one of the Big 5 countries, all you need is your mother tongue to attract online ESL students.  How easy is that?  If you can speak…they will listen…and pay.

I’m not trying to dilute the importance of teaching English by saying anyone with a pulse can do it.  Everyone with a functioning arm can swing a hammer, but many will miss the nail.

Teaching English online can be as simple as offering conversations.  Just conversations.  Only talking about anything and everything.

This might sound like a breeze to some, but if you can’t maintain a conversation, if you can’t think of what to say next, if you’re not a good listener because you’re mind wanders, then this gig probably isn’t for you.

• Have to seem fun
• Need to be quick on your feet
• Should ask interesting questions without missing a beat
• Should acknowledge the students’ feelings and needs
• Must listen for mistakes and correct them (but you don’t necessarily have to give grammatical reasons why they made a slip)

Many ESL students don’t have ANY opportunities to speak with anyone from the Big 5.  Their ultimate goal is to understand these Big 5 countries because it will grow their careers, help in their movie watching experiences, and if they ever meet a tourist in their country they will feel more comfortable to talk.

Students want to feel confident about their English
…want to improve their comprehension
…want to speak faster
…want to learn more vocab and slang
…and they want to have fun with you too!

If you can provide the above, you’ll do great!  So being on online English teacher (like with Skype) will make it possible for the student to speak with the folks they want…like you!

You can be quite successful if you only sell conversations for $20 or $25 per one hour session.  So for this…no experience is necessary.  BTW, if you need over 1,300 questions, 500 quotations, and 200 proverbs for your online ESL students that you teach on Skype, grab’em here.

So now what about offline teachers?  Can they start teaching online ASAP?

For those teachers who already have some offline teaching experience, you’ll do fantastic within the online world.

Think about what you want to specialize in.  Vocab?  Grammar?  Listening?  Slang?

Imagine this: you’re driving down a country road.  You’re sitting shotgun, and your friend driving suddenly slams on the breaks and points at a cow.  She screams, “Wow!  It’s a cow!  How interesting!”

You might look at the cow, see that it’s just a cow, look at your friend, look back at the cow, and them back again at your friend and say, “So what?  It’s just a cow.”

Cows are pretty ordinary.  They are not remarkable.  No one every stops the car to remark on a cow we’ve seen a million times.

But what if the cow were purple?

“Wow!  It’s a purple cow!  How interesting!”

My point is that you need to become the purple cow.  Be remarkable.  Be different.  Put a new and creative spin on whatever it is your offering to sell.

How can you stand out?  Try to make your vocab, grammar, listening and slang lessons unique.  Flip on the purple neon sign and grab their attention so they will buy big $500 package deals from you.

Teach what you know, but do it with a NEW style.

Check out this YouTube video.  Seth Godin is a marketing god.  If you like the video, consider his book.  He talks about YOU becoming the purple cow.

	E-books are easy to write!  You can do it…

Hey everyone!

I’ve talked before in previous posts about giving something away for free to your online ESL students.

This is a good way to add more value to whatever it is you’re selling.

So in your case, an online English teacher, you’re selling English lessons to be conducted on Skype or Yahoo Messenger, or MSN Messenger or even Google Talk.

So now one great thing to give away for free so as to incentivize your first-time students to buy from you…

…is an e-book.

If you have something to teach them, you can write an e-book.  It doesn’t have to be very long.  It can be just a few pages to however big you want it to get.

You could write on one topic or a whole bunch of ‘em.

Or it could even be organized like a workbook too.

I use OpenOffice Writer to write all of my documents (it’s like MS Word but it’s free).  And it has a way to convert files into into a .PDF (thus your e-book is born).

In my case, I made one called, Learn American Slang that teaches all the “bad” words and expressions.  It’s 33 fun-filled pages of high-octane profanity and obscene thoughts.

It’s a lot of fun to use for Skype slang lessons with cool students.

Some of my most popular package deals were either conversation, or vocab or American slang.  So I know lots of people are interested in learning more of these crazy words and idioms.  It’s great to get paid to cuss people out!

Anyway…

Another idea for you is to offer the e-book to students who sign-up and take one of your free 15 minute conversations.  So you could say something like the following:

“Sign-up now for a free one-time 15 minute lesson on Skype.  If you sign-up before this Friday, you’ll also get my e-book for free.  Once our free 15 minute lesson is over, I’ll send you the e-book for free.”

Use you imagination and see what you can come up with.  If you want to bounce some ideas off of me on Skype, you know where to find me.

BTW, if you want to check out my e-book page on EnglishKitty.com, click here.  If you buy it, feel free to give it away to your students for free as motivation to buy from you.  I have no problem letting you do this…please just don’t sell it or change it.  Thanks!  And if you don’t want to give it away, you can use it for your Skype lessons.

BTW, if you make your own e-book, tell me about it!  Keep in touch!

	Drum roll please!

In the article before last, I wrote about the importance of offering a free one-time trial lesson and how you should make it obvious on your website that you’re giving these away.

Check this out:

Here are the top 10 most important things you need to remember whenever you conduct your free trial lesson on Skype with a prospective ESL student:

1)  Be confident and use your web camera (they don’t need to use their web camera though).

2)  Smile non-stop.  Don’t ever let your facial expressions become too slack.

3)  Let the student do most of the talking (thus don’t you be too pushy or overly excited).

4)  Ask them questions in which you know the answers will be YES.  You’ll want them in a mindset of saying, “Yes!”

5)  Have a structured mini lesson ready.  You should have it on a Word or an Excel document so all you have to do is copy and paste the various things into the Skype chat box.

6)  Tell them the details about your great package deals and how they are better than the competition’s.  Practice what you’re going to say, and keep it as short as possible.

7)  Offer them a better deal if they say NO or just seem unsure.  For example, offer 2 free lessons when they buy 5 (normally it’s only 1 free lesson with this package of 5).

8)  Make sure to get their email address because you can send them personal lessons via email (you don’t want them to ever forget about you)

9)  Make them laugh and smile and feel relaxed.

10)  Sell them the benefits.  Talk about how they will feel more confident after practicing their English with you.  Talk about how their vocab and listening skills will increase which will help their job, their TV or movie watching experiences, or even help their personal life with native English speakers.

There you go!

These are the top 10 things you should remember every time you conduct a free trial lesson with a student on Skype.  Remember that you are also wearing the hat of a sales person, so stay positive that the student will buy a single lesson or a package deal.

You must be a salesperson more so than a teacher during your free trial lesson with a student.

If you would like to practice your free 15 minute trial lessons with me…no problem.  You can call me on Skype, and I can pretend to be a prospective student.  After your presentation, we’ll talk about the pros and cons.  You’ll get a nice critique about your free trial lesson.

Another reason you should practice with me is that it will make you more confident when you’re meeting a new prospective student.  You won’t want to be nervous with the students!

Enjoy your day!

	If you see it, it will come!

Let’s get the Wikipedia definition out of the way first:

…the Law of Attraction says people’s thoughts (both conscious and unconscious) dictate the reality of their lives, whether or not they’re aware of it. Essentially “if you really want something and truly believe it’s possible, you’ll get it”, but putting a lot of attention and thought onto something you don’t want means you’ll probably get that too.

It all comes down to the power of positive thinking and the destructive potential of negative thoughts.

The Law of Attraction can be a good or bad source of energy in your life.

So can I ask you a question?

Are you…

…a positive or a negative person?

If you had to come up with a percentage for each, what would it be?  80% positive and 20% negative?  Something like that?  Really think about it and trust your intuition.  What were the first set of numbers to pop in your head?

Got it?

Unless that negative percentage is currently ZERO, then your future self deserves that you start considering the Law of Attraction in your life.

When I was in university, I watched TV news a lot.  I would start my day and finish it by checking out the latest scandals, robberies, murders, and financial meltdowns.

I would get so angry at the tube because of the craziness of the world, AND the news reporters would erk me too because I saw them ask loaded questions, give opinions, and try to sway my thoughts that in some way might benefit them or their friends or their philosophy.

To say the least, I no longer trust the mainstream media.  I don’t like how news stations are more concerned with profits and getting rich than presenting useful news in an unbiased way.

Also, I don’t like to hear about how awful the world is.  It’s just too much to listen to how everyone has no money, no jobs, no friends, no cats, no food, no sex, no, no, no.

So…I don’t watch the news.  Don’t get me wrong, I care about the problems of the world, but I need to focus my positive energy in a direction I’m most qualified in.  I can’t save the world (and really, I don’t think it’s going to go belly-up).

I have to trust that others will step up and do their part in their own unique ways.  And since we live in a society like workers bees, we will get the job done as a whole.

Things will work itself out.

And I know my life is going in the right direction because I can see the outcome of my labor.  No…I’m not psychic, nor do I chat with the dead.  What I see and hear are the images and thoughts phantasmagorically passing through my head.

Visualize your future and it will come.

If you see negative images (on TV or in your mind), your day struggles to achieve true happiness for you.  But if you surround yourself with positive messages be it from the TV, the radio, your friends, family and co-workers, your sense of wellbeing will easily plant a long lasting smile upon your face.

As I write this, I feel energized.

I love how thoughts create form.  My thoughts travel through my fingers, to my computer, to the Internet, to your eyes, to your mind, and I know you will act out in a more positive way.

That is the power of living in a constructive society.  We all “feed” each other good feelings.

And these feelings help manifest physical things in our lives if we want them.  Seek money, and it will come.  Seek ESL students for your online English school, and they will come.  Seek love and happiness and significance, and it will ALL come.

Patience.

Give it time.

Trust that the universe will spin in YOUR TRUE direction.

Visualize the outcome you desire, not the one you fear.

Here’s a trick: anytime you have a bad thought, replace it with the face of your favorite loved one.  Think of how cute your cat is as well.  Imagine buckets of cash at your feet as you eat sushi with your friends and burp out the alphabet after taking a swig of Sam Adams.

Be creative and try to imagine the most far-out scenarios of success.  So the next time you belittle yourself or have fear, think about a future filled will [insert your wildest fantasy here].

And remember to smile…even force yourself if you have to.

Anyway, today I can across some software in regard to the Law of Attraction, and it really got me inspired to share with you today.  I just found it a few hours ago, and it sounds interesting.  I’m going to try the 7 day trial for $5.00 and see how it goes.

So you can expect an update shortly after it’s been on my computer for a few days.  If I like it, I’ll buy it at its full price.  You are more than welcome to check it out before I’ve had time to review it.

So there we go.  Imagine a good day, avoid negative people and inner thoughts of pessimism, and I guarantee your day will be fantastic.

If you would like to talk more with me about the Law of Attraction, chat with me on Skype.  I’m such a happy workaholic that I’m usually at or near my computer.  I joyfully swear, I think Dell and Microsoft put some kind of glorious drug in their product!

I love it, and I can’t stop…nor do I want to!

Enjoy your day because you are unique on this planet.  Only you can see your thoughts.  Only you can decide to be happy or not.  Only you!

Peace be with you.

On the spine of your online marketing strategy, you’ll find many vertebrae.

In regard to the body, the Atlas Vertebrae is the most important vertebrae.  According to ConnollyChiropractic.com, “The brain is the light and the atlas is the dimmer switch.  Do you know what happens when a dimmer switch is low, the brightness of the light decreases. When the atlas is out of position the messages from the brain are not transmitted properly to every cell in your body.”

For your online English school, your Atlas Vertebrae is the free trial lesson you should offer first-time students.  You need to give these lessons away if you want to shine the light on your message, your teaching ability.

I can’t stress it enough: you need to make it obvious that the student can meet you for a one-time trial lesson on Skype.  Make this offer known on every single page of your website or blog.

Here’s what you can say:

“Get your FREE one-time trial lesson with me on Skype for 15 minutes.”

“Do you want to talk with me for 15 minutes on Skype with your microphone?  You can do this one time…and it’s FREE.”

“FREE trial lesson!  Only 15 minutes!  FREE VIDEOCHAT with an English teacher!  One time only!”

Obviously since you’re students aren’t perfect at English, they might get confused and think your volunteering your time to teach for free…every time.

I try to make it obvious that I’m not a 100% free teacher (yet some still think I’m always free anytime).

So to help clarify what you’re about, put pictures of credit cards and PayPal logos on all of your pages.  Make statements like, “Get a free trial lesson and then decide to buy some of my cheap lessons.”

Giving away a free trial lesson is so important.  It’s the #1 reason why students will contact you!

If you’re making them pay you in order to meet you for the first time, they will be highly reluctant.  There are too many Internet scams out there, so by meeting them on Skype for free (with your web camera) will increase your sales exponentially.

Always use your web camera and smile a lot!  Smile non-stop!  Laugh and have fun too!

If you want to practice your free trial lesson with me on Skype by using a microphone and a web camera, let’s meet.

Practice makes perfect.  We’ll role play.  I’m be the student with intermediate skills, and you’ll be the teachers/sales person.  After 15 minutes, we’ll stop and discuss what’s working and what needs to be tweaked.

I’ll offer you a free 15 minute meeting so you can see I’m a real person too, and if you so desire, we can meet for longer to practice your free trial lesson/sales pitch (for a fee).

I’ll charge you about the same prices that you’ll charge your students.

Of course, like you, I’ll only give so much away for free since I need to eat and travel (my two favorite things besides my fiancée, Yuka).

Click here to check out the prices.  If you’re on a fixed income or have a strict budget, I’m happy to work out a fair deal.

I like to stay flexible.  And so remember, I’m always just an email or Skype chat away :)

Here are some links to pictures you can right click and then save to your computer.  I have no idea if the following are copyright protected or not.  If Google can have them on their site without prior permission, why not you too?  Check’em out:

Credit card pictures
PayPal pictures

If you’re not familiar with this section of Google, make sure to play around with the different sizes.  You can adjust the sizes with the drop down menu at the top.

There you go!  I hope this article helps.  Have a great day!

	How many different ways can you make money for yourself?

My high school education really let me down.  Sure, they taught me reading, writing, and arithmetic, but what did they forget to include?  What’s more important AND more practical?

Well…it’s money!  Learning how to make, save, and spend money was never a topic.

I’m not a big conspiracy nut, but don’t you find it highly suspicious that most high schools across America (and I’m guessing the world too) avoid specific courses that teach this valuable knowledge semester after semester?

This should be required study starting in elementary school!  REQUIRED…NOT OPTIONAL!

Think about it: why would the rich and powerful want you and I to compete with their rich children?  If you know anything about Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, you’ll know that rich dads teach their children about the money world, and poor dads do not.

But the burden of financial education shouldn’t completely rest on the parents’ shoulders.  Public and private schools need to step up since most parents don’t have the proper knowledge anymore.

It’s no wonder that almost everyone I know is in debt.  Credit cards are dangerous in the ignorant minds of consumers (especially the young).  And most people are grossly incompetent when it comes to responsible spending.  I learned this lesson the hard way!

But why did I have to?

No one taught me the wise ways of Wall Street, buying a house, taking out a business loan, dealing with credit card finance charges, investing in a money market account, getting business licenses, creating a simple budget, filling out different tax forms, marketing strategies, writing a simple business plan, customer service, saving for retirement, and as you can see, the list can keep going on and on.

What the hell!

This is America!  The land of opportunity that implies anyone can start a business and get rich.  What are your thoughts?  Do you feel like they (I’m not exactly sure who “they” are) pulled a fast one?  What’s the situation like in other countries?

Any way, I want to talk about diversifying your income:

Since you might not have a 100% understanding of what I’m talking about, this simply means to create more than a single stream of income.  Having 2 or more ways to make money from different sources at the same time is safer because if one of those dries up, you still have other streams to protect you.

You need to have money coming in from multiple angles.

This is pretty important in these crazy economic times.  So many people have been conditioned (brainwashed?) to have ONE job.  Having only one job, one stream of income is so dangerous considering the rise of outsourcing and CEO’s laying people off left and right.

So, here are some of my ideas on diversifying your income as an online English teacher in an ESL world:

Idea One:  Sell English lessons online by using Skype as a way to connect you with the student wherever he or she might live.  My e-book will give you on a step-by-step plan on how to start, operate, find students, and keep them paying again and again.  Sorry for the shameless self-promotion, but this site was created to make me money in a rewarding way that I could be proud of :-)

Idea Two:  Write an e-book.  Create an e-book that teaches them something.  Make your own creative and exciting lessons and throw it all together in the form of a .PDF file (and there’s your e-book). Make another website (or blog) just for your e-book, and market it the same way you would as your Skype lessons.

After you make a sale to a student, you’re in a better position to sell them more products.  Your student trusts you, they were satisfied with one buying experience, so logic dictates you can repeat this with other products.

Idea Three:  Suggest Amazon.com products that the student might like.  Sign-up for Amazon’s affiliate program, find some good English learning products, and do the following:

• Create a separate website/blog that focuses primarily on these Amazon products.
• Add a shop (an extra page) to your website (the one that sells your Skype lessons).
• After everyone of your student’s paid lessons, suggest a new product to them.  Or bring up the product during the lesson at some point in which it smoothly fits and then send them the Amazon affiliate link in the Skype chat box.

Idea Four:  Create a membership site that students only pay a few bucks a month to join.  Once in the membership site, the students will have access to special text, audio, and video lessons that you’ve created or acquired.  You could have a forum and a live chat page for students to interact together and thus increase the site’s sense of community.  I’ve never done this, but I really want to.  Does anyone know the best way to create a membership site that could do this?  I’m not a big programmer, but if there’s an workable solution, let me know!

Idea Five:  Write a paperback book and sell it through Lulu.com.  This site is a publishing-on-demand company.  All you do is upload your correctly formatted file to the site, and anytime someone buys it, Lulu will print off the book and mail it to the customer, and you’ll get a commission.  They take care of all the sales and customer service!  And you don’t have to pay any upfront costs!

Idea Six:  Sell your own created t-shirts or other merchandise with catchy expressions.  Gear them towards the love of English learning.  Check out CafePress.com or Zazzle.com to get started (it’s free).  One cool thing about Zazzle is that you can promote products that other people have made and get at least 15% commission.

Idea Seven:  Create a blog just for English learners and put Google Adsense ads on them.  And if you include Google Adsense to any of your other sites (like the one selling your Skype lessons), be careful.  You don’t want a prospective student to click on the Google link thus only making you a few cents when the student might have bought a big package deal of lessons from you otherwise (you could miss out on $100 to $500 if they never come back to you).  I would only put these ads on your site if you’re getting over 1,000 unique visitors a day.

Idea Eight:  Make DVD video lessons.  Sell these DVD or CD’s through Lulu.com or just CD’s through Zazzle.com.

Idea Nine:  Create an affiliate account at ClickBank.com and refer English learning related e-products that other authors have created.  You can always try to suggest other products to non-ESL people in the same way.  If you’ve never heard of affiliate marketing, discover more at Wikipedia.

Idea Ten:  Create interesting podcasts and give away half of each podcast for free.  And if the student wants to hear the rest, they should pay you a few bucks or so.  Here’s some free software to create nice podcasts.

Time to get serious!

Some of these ideas I’ve never experimented with, but I assure you, I will!  We all need to buckle down and create multiple streams of income in this day and age!

If you’re ready to buy a domain name or two for your various websites and get some hosting for it, use the same guys that I currently use.

I’ve been happy with them and have been using them since 2003, and their prices are right, and their customer service is outstanding…no complaints!  See what you think of the hosting plans.  At least secure a domain name before someone else gets it first!  Go here to buy your next domain name.

And yes, the above links are my affiliate links, but I really do use this company, and I’m proud to be their customer.  I’m confident you’ll like their services too for your URL and website hosting needs.

Another good reason to go with them is that I can help you if you have trouble publishing your site.  I’m familiar with their control panel that customers get.

I can easily walk you through any problems.  I’ve used the control panel so much, it’s like riding a bike for me.
