Free Hosting For Low Budget Bloggers

I want to start my blogging but, I don't have all that money to pay for hosting, where can I get a free hosting service. Do you think you can host all your files for free without paying a penny?

Of course yes! because I myself is also hosting residualincomearners for free. 

Are you Johnny just come in the Internet marketing industry, you've been doing business online ,but yet to figure out what works for you and for that reason, you try to cut down expenses. I know how I felt when I was just starting out, I didn't really know a lot about Internet marketing business, for this reason, I refused to register and host my personalized domain name because I was still experiment.

So I started with blogspot.com and WordPress.com which of course is the best approach for some beginners who don't really know their way about blogging. If you're just starting your blogging journey, you don't need to spend too much, unless you really know what you're doing. Instead, look for ways to cut down on expenses, which I am about to share with you in this article.

In this post, the only thing you will pay for is domain name registration and your host will be totally free, unless you want to add more features. You have to experiment things, get some basic understanding of how things are been done on the Internet before you think of making huge commitment. 
Most people think that Internet business is Rich quick business, so they invest a lot with lot of expectations and when they don't get that fast return within a period of time, they get frustrated and give up.

So how can someone with a low budget start a blog with his/her own personalized hosted blog or website.

First thing is to identify your area of interest, your niche, your area of focus. This will help you craft the domain name of your choice corresponding to your niche. For example if you're in the health niche, you can create a domain name which tells people that you're in the health niche, like: myhealth.mywealth.com or something shorter and memorable.

Now go ahead and register your domain name with any of the best registrar. 
My recommended ones are:


Namecheap

GoDaddy

But if you're nigerian and you don't have what it takes to pay in dollars, then you can register your domain name with Qserver....... I'm presently using them for my domain hosting. So go ahead and register your domain name now!

Get a free .com.ng domain name and 2GB Space + 8GB Bandwidth + Free SSL Cert for N3,500 Only!

I love those two registrars because of their now and then deals on domain and hosting. Even till when this article was written , domain name deal on Namecheap.com for just ....... so go register your domain name now and come back for your freehosting.com.

Freehosting.com allows you to host your files for free, yes! For freeeeee, I mean it. I'm presently using freehost for my residualincomearners.biz. I installed my WordPress blog for free, the only thing I did was to register residualincomearners.biz with Qserver and point it to freehosting.com.

So if you have registered your domain name, the next thing is to register with freehosting.com , when you get to the homepage. Scroll down and you will see a button that says "Get Started” , after clicking the button, on the other page ,select your hosting plan. 

Please make sure you select free hosting plan oooooo.

Next screen

When you are on the next screen, choose your domain, ****** remember that you've already registered your domain with Namecheap or Qserver , so you don't have to register another domain name with them. So tick the last option which says: 

I will use my existing domain and update my nameserver 

Not to forget
Now; follow the process on the next screen, but don't choose any other paid service, except you want to register your domain name with them.  If you have already registered your domain name with Namecheap, GoDaddy Qserver, you don't have to register another domain name. During the registration process, you will be asked if you already have a domain name, just choose the one that says (I will use my existing domain and update my nameserver ). Note****** don’t choose any other paid package, apart from your free hosting and domain name until you checkout. 

When you have successfully completed the registration, an email will be sent to your email address containing all your hosting details. You're done! You now have free hosting.



If your domain name is not registered with them, you will need to point your domain name to freehosting.com. 

How do I point my domain name to my host?

Now go to the email they sent you earlier, the one which your login details is included and read through the message. You will see where it says "Domain Configuration" under This subheading, you will also see: 

1. Nameserver 1: ns1.freehosting.com and the second one is 
2. Nameserver 2: ns2.freehosting.com . Copy the two Url to where you registered your domain name. 

The way you go about changing your nameservers would differs from platform to platform. But for me , I normally login to my registrar site which is Qserver , click on the domain name I want to manage, then click on change nameservers.  In the next window , I tick Use my nameserver, then past the two nameservers in the separate box and click save. Please if you're following this process and you get stuck somewhere, contact me .

Remember that after pointing your domain name to freehosting, it would take 24 hours for the domain name to fully synchronize with your freehosting files.

You now have your free hosting service and also point your domain name to your host.

Now you have to decide whether to install WordPress or upload your own files. But if you want to install WordPress, follow this link→ (Coming Soon) WordPress guide for beginners.

Skyrocket your business with Facebook ad

Pros and Cons | Tips and Tricks

Give Your Business A New Lift

In this post I am going to reveal to show you how you can use Facebook Ad to build and grow your online businesses.  You will discover how you can get floods laser targeted traffic and build your brand and name easily to increase your profits.

You’ve done it through SEO, social networking, press releases, article marketing and perhaps even a pay-per-click campaign like Google AdWords. In short, you’ve used all the traditional (and not so traditional) ways that help online business catch on like wildfire.

The wish of every business person or companies is to be able to present their business to as many potential targeted customers – the ones who will find their products/offers irresistible, and eagerly spend money. 

But I doubt if you’re taking good advantage of facebook;  If not, you may not be aware of this comparatively new source of targeted customers – the sort who you may not be able to reach by traditional means.

Facebook is one of the active platforms that the smart marketer can't ignore. It's the Internet's largest social network site with hundreds of millions of active users.

There are many ways to market on Facebook.  Some are free and some would cost you money. If you are not using this lucrative way to market your business you are leaving wads of cash lying on the table.

Why use Facebook to market your website

Facebook is the currently the biggest social media and networking platform on the planet with over 450 million users, of which over 50% of them are active daily. Of course you know that marketing is a numbers game and if you are not tapping into a market as big as this, your competitors will leave you in the dust! 

Facebook is becoming so big that it recently overtook Google as the website that got the most traffic in a single day.  This means that Facebook is becoming bigger than Google itself.  How would you like a piece of that pie?

Facebook is also a great place to “soft sell” your products, because a lot of normal users don't know that you can actually use Facebook as a marketing platform for your business.  Not only that, but there is also a way to generate laser targeted visitors that some people don't even know about.  

Those of them that don't know this is losing out big time.  Do you want to be one of those people or do you want to leave your competitors cleaning up behind you for a few scraps?

Another great reason for marketing with Facebook is that there are so many different ways to use this website to market your websites and products and many ways to turn these users into cash.

You can use profile updates, friends requests, groups, fan pages, events, social ads, the marketplace, pictures, videos and a lot more.

In the Facebook Marketing Extreme course, you will find out exactly how you can use all these free techniques to generate massive amounts of targeted website visitors easily, as well as learn how to use the social media ads of Facebook to get those laser targeted visitors to your sites and page.  These ads are probably the most targeted form of traffic on the internet today.

Why should you consider Facebook advertising

I believe Facebook advertising isn’t new to you, you’ve seen them yourself, most likely… those ads running down the right-hand side of your Facebook pages, most of them about interests you particularly enjoy.

You are not seeing the same ads as everyone else accessing Facebook at that moment. These ones are specifically targeted to data Facebook has gleaned from your preferences and other sources.

Facebook ads are simple but powerful.  Each one consists of a title, text block and graphic or photo of your choice – all within a 110px X 80px “box”, to fit that vertical, right-hand Facebook sidebar.

You too can also advertise your:

• Services
• Products
• Contest
• Cause
• Links
• Photos
• Videos
• Business Event

Benefits of Advertising on Facebook

SEO vs. Social Trends –  Facebook’s biggest benefit is its most obvious. It operates through social networking and trending rather than pure SEO – the hottest trend of this brand new decade.  It allows readers to see your ads on their mobile phones – and mobile devices now outnumber personal computers, 4 to 1!

It is also cheaper than Google AdWords, and while the latter is still a wonderful way to kick-start a campaign, AdWords can be risky for newer marketers, as costs per click can skyrocket faster than your sales.

Will it replace AdWords completely?  That shouldn’t be your goal!  Plan further down the line to do what the big boys and girls do: Kick-start each campaign with well-optimized and researched AdWords.

Facebook vs. Adwords Costs – But whether you use Adwords (SEO based) or Facebook ads (social networking based), Facebook ads nowadays are a “must” – particularly with the not-so-subtle switch over to mobile devices! But it’s great for beginning marketers because at the moment, it’s significantly less expensive to advertise on Facebook than with PPC!

Graphics Capability – It’s other biggest benefit is that you can introduce a graphic element or photo into what is basically just a small text ad! Since Facebook is “tuned” to graphic elements, and interest has been shown to peak when graphics are displayed, it wins hands-down over AdWords tired, irritating banner ads (traditionally low converters for over a decade).

(You could simplify it like this:  Want a text ad only? – Use AdWords. Plan to use a graphic? – Use Facebook Ads.)

Text Capability – You have 75 words to say what you want to say in Google AdWords (that’s less than half a tweet!)  Facebook ads not only allows you a 25-character headline, but 135 words of body text, too. (That’s over double Google AdWords’ capacity – but note; spaces count.)

Does Seo Still apply?

Yes of course; In fact, it’s absolutely crucial to the success of your Facebook Ad! 

Remember when we talked about Facebook Ads geared to your specific hobbies, tastes, preferences and interests appearing down the right-hand side of your Facebook page?  You’ll notice that:

• A small percentage make you click on them
• Some really don't appeal to you
• Yet the third group appeals to you, but it may take you days of repeated exposure, seeing the same ad many times , before you finally click on them.

You want your ad to be in the latter 2 categories. And you achieve that through solid, well-researched long-tailed keywords (combined with your irresistible, curiosity-arousing 25 character headline and 135 character body text).

Get those elements right, and you’ll have an ad that bypasses casual searchers (how many right-hand-side Google search page paid ads do you ever click on, compared to Facebook Ads?) and zeros in on a 75% pre-sold, pre-qualified market.

Who Is It For?

Some people will tell you that Facebook Ads don’t work for business purposes, but that’s simply not so. It should speak volumes and give you a big, fat clue about its potential when you realize that major companies are taking full advantage of Facebook Ads, in creative ways.

Note******  “Fansumers”

If you’ve been wondering what a “fansumer” is, it’s yet another social phenomenon you can use to your advantage.

According to Forrester Research, a “fansumer” is simply a consumer who has “become a fan” of a brand on Facebook.

This brings us back to Facebook Ads’ third biggest advantage… interactivity.

It’s a proven maxim:  Get people to engage as a participant, rather than as a spectator, and their stake in what they’re engaging in becomes personal and more positive. Use an app or a product and click the little “become a fan” text link on your Facebook page, and you are not only contributing to its statistical popularity, but personally endorsing it. 

However; it can help 2 types of products like Apps and Brand.

Allowing people to become Facebook fans should be a definite part of your branding campaign. A good rule of thumb is to make sure the niche customer you wish to reach actually does operate via social networking at least as much as – if not more than – through standard PC use and Google searches.

You can also target specific geographic areas, using Facebook Ads (by country, state or province, town or city). 

And remember, when someone brands him or herself as your fan (or “fansumer”), they are letting you know they are ripe for your offerings.

Other actions you can choose to take while setting up your ad are:

• Pay per click (PPC) or (CPM) per impression
• Also track your Ads progress in real time
• Edit and tweak your Ads for the best result

Best of all, Facebook Ads are easy to set up, with a step-by-step process that guides you clearly through creation and all your options.

Facebook is quietly becoming the newest 2010 trend in online advertising – especially for those on a budget – as of this writing. Even if you don’t think its right for your business, you are to be applauded for taking the time to at least learn more about it!

Bonus Tips

Way to market on Facebook for free

Your profile page is the starting point for your presence on Facebook. Your profile page is basically a landing page that you design in order to convert your friends to engage with certain parts of your identity.

If you want to use this free marketing strategy, the secret is to expand your network as much as possible. The way to do this is to expand! Start a group and you create a central place for customers, partners, and friends to participate in conversations around your brand. Facebook groups come with boards for posting discussion topics, photos, videos, and links right out of the box. And the best part about Groups is you can create as many as you like for free.

While Groups do offer a reasonably robust feature set with no setup, you're not able to extend their functionality with Facebook applications. In order to use those, you will need to get a Facebook Page.

Pages were launched by Facebook in November 2007 as a way for businesses of many types to easily establish a brand presence on Facebook. Pages are more customizable than groups. You can add HTML, Flash, or even Facebook applications to your pages to extend their functionality. Pages are a good option for small or local businesses that want to establish a presence on Facebook. Like groups, they're another free and easy way to do viral marketing.

You can also join network marketing group, send out several comments, write notes, add friends, add events, join events, wall post on Groups, wall post on Friends Walls, post videos in Groups, cross pollinate with other Group Owners, add many photos, make sure all your privacy settings are OFF.

Never forget that Facebook is a society so don't try to be a seller, try to solve others problems. Community is about communication, and that might be the best advertising you could hope for.

'Brands' are already networking and engaging with consumers via Facebook for leverage, a strengthening and generating a better understanding of the brand itself and customer relationships with it, and for participation and valuable feedback.

Want to get viral traffic with Facebook?

Get more friends: 

Friends are the most important aspect in social networking as they are needed to make money! The more friends you have, the more visibility your business will have, which ultimately leads to more sales for you.

Have a great profile page: 

If you are a big social networker, you will have a pimped out profile page. Link to all of your social network profiles and personal projects to gain maximum exposure. Promote your RSS feed from your blog on you profile page. Make it attractive with enough information to where it doesn't look boring!

Use the Notes and Event features: 

Sending notes and events are great ways at gaining more exposure in your business. If your friends like it they may even pass them on to their friends. It's a win win for everyone!

Create a good content:

Content is king. If you are a good writer in a popular niche then you will have no problem succeeding in social networking sites like Facebook. People like great content and they will take the time to read it if it peeks their interests. Try to write articles that include lists, like "Top 10..." or "7 Reasons Why...".

Give away free stuff:

Everyone loves free stuff and your social networking friends will really love you for it! Give them a free ebook, or maybe an article you found online. It doesn't have to be big. Anything that is helpful and related to your niche will be greatly appreciated by your friends.

Have your own blog:

Blogs are a great way to spread the word about your business. You can incorporate your blog into your Facebook account and add RSS feeds for your readers to follow up on. You can also comment on other blogs linking back to your site.
