It was a play on words. You’re exactly right. That was the point.

I like all of your videos. The truth with web hosting is that eventually you will be able to pay for it with Google Ad sense. I use Godaddy Shared hosting and in about a month I had a whole year already payed for.

Great thank you. Your a great person and its fantastic to see people like you sharing your views and helping those to realise how important it is to pay and invest in their buisness.
I wish you the best of luck for your company in 2010.
Take care Lisa.

For your information, most free web hosting services now let you use php, e-mail, and dns. You can get your own free domain name, and set it up for your hosting, and it all looks very professional. My sites are all completely free, and they look great. No one would ever think that it is a free host. My sites have no forced ads, unlimited everything, and by the way, most free hosting is better than paid hosting now. I have compared them, and my hosting beats all the other paid ones.

Aside from the hosting service that you need, you are already most likely investing money in order to build your website. You need either someone to design your site, or a program like Dreamweaver ($400.00), in order to create it. Your point about people not investing money into a website if they choose free hosting is invalid. Also, the amount of time spent making your site is not worth it if you have to pay extra for hosting. Also, some free hosting is better than the paid ones. Like mine.

Nice video but what i have found is the monthly price of host sites is misleading it may say $6.95 a month but every site i find makes you pay a year or more in advance and with the economy getting worse everyday i can not afford to pay upfront costs i really only can pay the $6.95 a month but like i said i have yet to find a host site that actually charges monthly

i opened a site like 2 years ago & also could not afford to pay a month so i just paid a year which was cheaper then monthly and also you can use nvu prorgam its like dreamweaver but free & kinda ugly lol.

Hello there
I’m doing a little better for myself since I last looked at your vid. I didn’t really use any of your advice yet, but I got 10k views after 2 months 
It definitely helps to write good material and comment on other people’s sites even if you don’t get comments right away. IT PAYS OFF.
But I have to move to a different host because Justhost said I take up too much cpu proceses…can you help me..???

7:35 am on February 8th, 2010

^_^ you made me happy when you mentioned writing code from scratch, I made webpages rather than paper projects for school . One time something didn’t work right so I edited it on the spot with notepad and got some extra credit for really knowing what I made.

Great video, as a search marketing professional I was captivated by the video, simply put – you speak the truth that many small business owners need to hear. Well done!

I like the way you deliver your messages, very clear and direct. I appreciate that.

lisa, first of all, i like a lot your videos. they are very informative and well thought.
now, about free hosting, what’s so hard to move a site to another host?
some hosts have automated software to transfer all your site to them when you transferring to them ON A UTTON CLICK
a lot of these cheap hosts. 5$ / month give me unlimited bandwith and some 150mb space. what do you need more?
i agree with most of your ideas tho

11 minutes and 20 seconds of ‘babbling’ about how bad ‘free’ is and no real substance. You should make an outline and say what you want to say not repeat 40 times that free is bad.
Yes, it is, “just you.”
Waiting 6 months so you can afford a pay site is 6 months of not being productive. And, moving a site is extremely easy.
So, Go Free, Be Free.
Lisa try to stay positive and drop the whining.

Good video, I wouldn’t have a business on a free account. But to see if it’s a worthy investment while I am unemployed I would have to do it free just as a little project to see if affiliate marketing is something I could do or get into. If I put it to the test an it seems worth the time yeah then I would go the route of buying the domain. Just my thoughts on this.
