Websites with Hosting

We were thinking about offering a free 5 page website with everyone who signs up with us and wanted to get your thoughts as to whether or not you think this type of promotion would work?

Re: Websites with Hosting

I would look at your competition many of them offer something similar. Also given the time to develop them versus the revenue you will make on hosting it may not be a very profitable venture.

I agree, you may want to consider giving away free domain registration if they host with you that is what most people are doing.

Re: Websites with Hosting

It is a tough market that you are in because of the competition prices are just being driven lower and lower. I think you need to think of a different hook than the competition - unfortunately I do not know what that hook should be.

Re: Websites with Hosting

Do you have a script or a website that you could sell multiple times but with a one year committment to host with you. Inertia could work in your favor and people may not move.

Re: Websites with Hosting

I'll tell you something I don't see often offered with hosting.... Teleseminars on how to do better sites, market, etc! I also don't see many marketing or brining traffic to your site ebooks or articles.

I think if you add something else to your hosting, including fantastico (if you're not using it) that would be a good package.

Thanks for your idea we will have to look at that.
