YOUR OWN DOMAIN NAME...????

One of the things you will notice when you visit my websites is that they each have their own exclusive domain names. Most of them are "re-directed" domains... meaning that when a visitor clicks on my www.seasilverwellness.com site they actually are being redirected my www.e-comprofits.com site which hosts my own Seasilver marketing site. In that site you will also notice additional links to both the .com & .net versions of my 'myseasilver' sites.

Why would I do that?

There are several good reasons to have your own domain name... here are a few:

CREDIBILITY: Your business will appear more credible with your own domain name. No long extensions to confuse the buyer.

MULTIPLE PATHWAYS IN SEARCH ENGINES: If you are involved in online or internet based marketing methods you can open multiple pathways to your sites by using different url's (domain names) to your various marketing sites... both the .com & .net versions of your 'myseasilver sites. By registering these domains with all the search engines & directories on the net you open up more than one way for a visitor to find you... and your marketing websites. That means more leads, and faster growth for your Seasilver business.

Here is my favorite source for low-cost domains: http://www.000domains.com . They are a fully approved ICANN domain registrar, have a very robust management area which allows you to do your own redirects, set up multiple e-mail address using your domain name, etc. They only charge $13.95 a year to register a new domain and that gives you full access to their free domain management area. I currently have over 100 domains purchased through them. My domains are hosted on their servers and redirected to wherever I want them to go. I have several domains which redirect to my 'myseasilver' urls... and several which go directly to other areas of my Seasilver business... i.e. www.SuccessWithSeasilver.com is redirected to that section of my site at my www.e-comprofits.com domain.

There are two ways to redirect a domain name... straight redirect... or stealth redirect. The straight redirect simply re-routes your visitor immediately to your chosen site and the site name which appears on the "address" portion of your web browser shows the site name where the traffic was re-routed to. Example: If I use a straight redirect of a given domain name to the bizop (.com) 'myseasilver' site... then the browser address field will show the 'myseasilver' domain.

If, on the other hand, I use a "stealth" redirect, the browser address field will continue to show the domain name that was clicked on originally. Example: If your redirected domain name was: SuperDuperSeasilver.com ... then the browser address field would continue to show SuperDuperSeasilver.com no matter where the actual site was hosted.

I am not suggesting here that you need a separate domain to function. You don't! I only point out that it is a viable marketing strategy that you might want to explore for your Seasilver business.
