Owning your own domain name is the fastest, easiest, and cheapest way to increase the professionalism of you and your business, virtually over-night.
Understand that in network marketing, or any business for that matter, you are selling yourself.
How to register a domain and forward to your affiliate link then? Well, it is pretty easy. Just follow my instructions below J
First, think of a domain name that makes sense. It is simple to remember, short and snappy and easy to spell.
Second, Go to www.Godaddy.com to search for you domain and register it if it is available. Do not register a .net unless you own the .com as everyone checks out the .com. So register a .com to go to your link.
When registering your .com domain Godaddy will offer you all sorts of bells and whistles which you don’t need. So ignore any extra offers for hosting etc as the forwarding is Free.
Third, Once you have purchased your domain name, login to godaddy account with your login info and take the following steps to forward it to your affiliate link:
- Click on “My Products” in the upper left
- Click on “Domain Manager” – a new page will open up with your domains on the page.
- Tick on the domain name you want to forward
- Click on the “forward” button above and select
‘forward domain’ from the dropdown menu.
- You will see your domain already added on
the left.
- Copy and paste or type your affiliate link without
the http:// into the forward to box on the right.
Your affiliate link is the link the company gives to you to promote with your ID or Username at the end.It will look like this;
==>> http://www.theinfinitydreamteam.com/members/micmei
(it will have your username not mine after the /)
- Click the “Update my DNS settings to support
this change. (Recommended)’ box
- Don’t worry about the Advance Settings Link as
that is for Masking and you do NOT want to mask
your domain as that can play around with the
affiliate tracking!
- Click ‘OK’ and click ‘OK’ again when the next
window pops up.
It may take anywhere from 1 minute to one hour for
the forwarding to active. If it does not work right
away, give it a few minutes. Most of the time it
takes 10 minutes or less.
Now, when somebody types in, or goes to http://www.yourwebsite.com/
they will be automatically forwarded to your affiliate link.
So this is the link you will use in all your
advertising.
Best of all if ever our links change for whatever
the reason, then all you have to do is update your
forwarding within your Godaddy and bam it won’t effect
any past advertising you have out there…which would
not be the case if you are promoting your affiliate
link directly.
