A few years ago, it struck me that I should know something about web designing and publication first hand. And, I thought why don't I I learn and at the same time I earn? I then decided to buy a value-for-money web hosting package with a world-renowned web-host (please click the hotlink below). At that time, US$1 = RM3.80. Still the package was much cheaper and superior than any web hosting packages I could buy from local web hosts - You do your research and you will know what I meant.
I used the free site builder that comes with the web-hosting package to design an affiliate marketing website for my domain name (www.GT-ibiz.com) which I separately bought. Within just 12 months of trying as a newbie with "zero" knowledge, I was able to receive 2 cheques in US$ from Commission Junction and declared some profits to the Inland Revenue.
But our Malaysian broadband's reliability and speed were constant annoying issues back then. After making numerous "feedback calls" to Multimedia Commission, I gave up before improvements finally came. But, at least, I have tried and found out that it is possible to use the "free website builder" to build a website that makes money online as a complete newbie in internet marketing.
Now that the reliability and internet speed issues have been largely improved - although, the costs of internet access/usage remain relatively high compared to those in the advanced countries that I know of in my earlier foray in affiliate marketing, I am beginning to feel that it would be less frustrating now to try my hands at internet marketing again during my leisure.
So, friends out there - particularly, the real estate people: If you want to teach your self web designing and publication at minimal costs during your free time, I suggest you start by using the "free website builder" provided by this value-for-money web hosting package at only US$4.95/mth (about RM16/mth only, based on US$1 = RM3.2) from this world renowned web host (click HOSTGATOR for specific details) which comes with unlimited bandwidth and unlimited disk space!
And, DON'T forget, to enjoy a further discount, enter "propertyhost" as the "discount coupon code" after you have made your selection of the web hosting package and are about to pay online via your PayPal account or your credit card - there is a space or "data field" for you to enter "propertyhost" as the "discount coupon code" to enjoy a further discount of nearly US$10!
To me, paying about RM16/mth to subscribe to a world renowned web hosting package which comes with "free website builder" for me to learn and teach myself web designing and publication during my free time and at my own pace is really good peanut in this era of ICT and online marketing. YOU don't have to be illiterate in online marketing or in dealing with web designers for your products and services to be marketed 24hrs a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year, non-stop via the internet, even when you sleep or holidaying away!
Wherever you may be.....start learning web designing and publication now if you have not even started.....
