Free Isnt Always Good - Why You Need Your Own Website

Importance Of Self-Esteem In Diabetes Care
I have written in the past, that helping our children develop self-confidence, self-reliance, and self-control .....
Often time I've browsed sites and seen the same thing - general

rep websites or free hosted sites. Pop ups irritate me from the

free sites as does the blatant ads getting in the way of the

text, and if you have seen one rep site you literally have seen

them all. Boring, unoriginal, and unprofessional.



But after all they are free, and free is good right? Wrong - not

when it comes to your image online.



Regardless of the business you are in, it's important you have

your own website. Meaning you have a unique domain name with

purchased hosting. There are many benefits to owning your own

website and I'll explain why:



1. Ability to Track Visitors If you don't know where your

visitors are coming from, there is no way to know if your

advertising is working or not. It's a shot in the dark, and the

internet is too large to take a chance like that.



While some free hosting companies offer the ability to edit your

pages and add trackers, general rep sites usually do not.

2. Eliminates unwanted information/ads Most free hosting company

will place their own ads on your website. How many potential

customers could you be loosing with this? The same applies for

company information on rep websites. Should your potential

customer contact the company directly instead of you, you've

lost that commission/sale.



3. Ability to give your site a personal feel Company rep sites

of course all look alike. Very few give the option of editing,

so you are "stuck" with their design, their content and

descriptions, and their information. Many free hosting companies

only have templates to use, so your sites would look like many

others online. Giving your website a personal feel with your own

design, descriptions, and information sets you apart from your

competition.



4. Creates a Professional Look Not only is your website easy to

remember when you have a unique domain name, but your visitors

will take you seriously. They know you are serious about your

online business, and are quicker to trust and buy. You've shown

them you care about your business and your customers as well by

creating a friendly site.



5. Ability to Edit Pages for SEO purposes Many free hosting

sites are frowned on by major search engines, and rep sites of

course are definitely frowned on. Most company rep sites cannot

be edited, which means you cannot add link exchange pages to

increase your rankings, nor can you edit the titles for SEO

purposes. Many potential customers are being lost from search

engines with these types of sites.



There are of course other reasons why you need your own website

- such as for many directories that do not accept links from

anything but top-level domains (like www.yourdomain.com). Domain

names are very reasonable, costing around $8 per year while

hosting costs as low as $6/month. Domain and hosting companies

are everywhere, it just depends on what your needs are. For

small websites I recommend Mommy's Helper (

This is cost you can't afford to cut out of your business

budget.
