- Whether you start full-time or part-time its best to get an annual package web hosting account. Remember your site will take time to grow.
- This is your brand you’re building, make sure to go over details you find on web hosting accounts. Chat with customer service and ask why you should do business with them, instead of their competition.
- Some if not all web hosting providers offer their clients free credits to google adwords, make sure to use them only after your site is complete or it has at least a dozen or two pages. Remember first impression counts in our business.
