I have given this little tip to dozens of people on my team, but I don’t think I have ever put it on this blog, so here you go…
Most Network Marketing companies offer some sort of replicated web sites these days. Prices for these sites usually range from free to $20 a month. Most of the replicated web sites come with a very long URL, such as: http://tribblet.oasislifesciences.net/
Imagine trying to give out that URL to someone over the phone. A simple solution is to register a new domain at www.godaddy.com and have it forwarded on to your replicated web site. For example, www.tytribble.com is forwarded on to http://tribblet.oasislifesciences.net/. tytribble.com is easier to put on a business card and easier for people to remember . In addition, if the company changes the URL of your site, you can easily forword you new domain to the new URL without losing any of your links or replacing any business cards.
