I decided to go with HostGator since Bluehost is too expensive for me right now I don’t know how to make a website and I’m still having a really hard time picking a domain name so can you give me your advice because I don’t know if a domain name is the name of the website and I still have to think of a logo so I need WordPress to be free and click funnels sound great but its too pricy I need to save every dollar I can for the ad clicks and I don’t have a clue about how to make an email list or email marketing .
Hi Lacy!
There is absolutely no problem to go with HostGator, it also has a cPanel control, through which you can access the file manager to use the manual method, and you can easily install wordpress on it to go on with Clickfunnels.
It sounds like you want to do it all at once! Please do take it step by step and follow John’s videos to set everything up. The process with HostGator should not be much different.
Though the domain name is not always important since you’d be promoting it via mainly via ads and customers won’t be typing it (probably won’t even notice it), I for example always look on the address of the website that I am visiting, and it definitely helps to have a catchy short domain rather than random numbers or letters. Then, at least to my opinion and experience, the name itself is important since that’s the initial representation / first impression of your site/page and whatever you are promoting/representing.
Some tips for a good domain name:
- Choose a domain name that is easy to type.
- Keep it short.
- Use keywords.
- Target your area.
- Avoid numbers and hyphens.
- Be memorable.
