Do it now, you'll definitely thank me. Willie
One of my favorite forums is sponsoring a contest to see
which forum regulars can refer the most new members.
I think the contest is brilliant. I'd also love to someday share
with you that I referred the MOST new members when the
contest ends. So I need your help. Go over and register at the
very active Info Profit Talks Forum:

Introduce yourself and tell Louis and the "family" that I sent
you.
I'm not that big on free list-building and traffic building tools
because most are more trouble than they are worth. There is
a big tendency to cheat with many of these systems. I signed
up for a list building service recently that my friend Robert
Puddy created. It surprised me by sending me a BUNCH of
new subscribers EVERY DAY since I've been a member. It
would bevwell worth checking out. It's at:

One of the most interesting ebooks that I read this week was
Co-reg Secrets Revealed. In it, my neighbor and friend Ed
Thorpe reveals some long-held industry secrets about using
co-registrations to build your mailing list really fast. Ed
hasn't really promoted this book. He explained that since it
reveals so much, selling it would be sort of like "selling your
car to buy gas." I did get Ed's blessing to point the book out
to you though. Check it out at:

Tonight, there is another teleseminar in the perpetual learning
series sponsored by JVAlert. This one features the very
innovative marketing techniques of the "Joe and Mable Show."
If you're not familiar with this then you missing a really hot
trend. Check this teleseminar out at:

Finally, my weekly Saturday brainstorming sessions will continue
this week. Last week we had a technical problem :-)
The call will be from 11AM - 12:30 Noon Central Standard Time.
It's a great chance to ask questions and just discuss internet
marketing in a small group setting. Great ideas come out of these
calls... and you can even request a free website review. To
register, send a blank email to my autoresponder at:

If you spend more than $100 for the merchant account,
gateway, and virtual terminal, you're being fleeced!
Here is the firm Willie Crawford uses and recommends:
http://totalprocessing.net/?id=104779
Wake up and smell the rip-offs! If you're still paying more than
$10 per year for a domain name, you're getting ripped-off.
Maybe ripped-off is too strong a language. After all, many of the
firms charging you over $10 per year do provide you with
additional services. Many of these firms do offer domain name
registrations, renewals, and transfers as an "additional
service." Many web hosts do this as an example. However, I
still don't think that justifies them charging you 2 - 10 times
what it costs them!
The problem is that many beginners don't realize that they don't
have to pay those outrageous fees. They don't realize that they
don't have to use their web hosts to register a domain name and
they don't have to renew their domain through their old
registrar.
Let me give you a little history.....
When I first came online... back in 1996, Network Solutions was
the only place to get a domain name. They charged $35 per year
and you had to register for 2 years minimum. They practically
had a monopoly on the domain name registration business with
the government's blessing. They were a typical BIG company
that could be nearly impossible to deal with if your records
ever got messed up. Boy do I have stories that I could tell you :-)
Present day facts...
Today, anyone can be a domain name registrar or an agent for one.
In-fact, I got so fed up with seeing my clients getting
ripped-off that I set up my own service. My clients can get a
domain name for under $8 per year (much cheaper for some
extensions). They can transfer domains, bulk register domains,
set up domain forwarding, and even arrange to hide who owns a
domain...
Why would you want to hide who owns a domain? Well, whether
you realized it or not, your domain registration records are a
matter of public record. Anyone can go to whois.com and look up
the record for any of your domains. Within that record, is your
address, email address and phone number. This means you are
an easy target for spammers, stalkers, and tele-marketers!
With the domain masking service they see the information for a
proxy service, but you really maintain full control over the
domain.
That's digressing a little, but I did want you to know that
services like that exist. If you want to check out the service I
set up for my subscribers and clients, it at:
http://TheRealSecrets.com/hosting/
You are welcome to use it too. My pricing is nearly break-even.
When I factor in all of my overhead, I actually lose a little.
If you're familiar with the law of reciprocity, you'll understand
why I do that.
There are many other similar rip-offs that I teach my clients and
attendees to my workshops about. It's when you're first starting
out that your funds are the tightest. It's also at that time that
you know the least and are therefore the easiest to take
advantage of. Hopefully this article and others I'm writing will
level the playing field. Now you don't need to be an unknowing
victim of rip-offs.

"Willie,
I always wanted to set up a cookbook myself, but I was
very reluctant to do so, because I didn't know how.
Thanks to your Teleseminar these days are over!
The tons of information you provided there gave me the
confidence to go forward. Right now I'm in the middle of
making one.
Thanks a bunch for this precious info.
