Why Using A Simple URL Redirect Is So Important…
By The Secret Cash Builder
Finally, the third advantage to owning a domain name is that you can use what’s called a “redirect.”
In network marketing as well as affiliate marketing, we often use replicated website addresses or affiliate links in our businesses. These are usually fairly long web addresses that are difficult to give out over the phone, or place in advertising pieces.
For example, the address for an affiliate of Magnetic Sponsoring would look like this: (UserName).magneticsponsoring.com or SecretCashBuilder.magneticsponsoring.com
(NOTE: Using lower case or upper case letters when typing a domain name makes no difference at all. Each letter in the alphabet simply corresponds to a specific number, and that number is the same whether the letter is capitalized or not).
Your company might give you a replicated site and the address probably looks something like this: YourCompanyName.com/123452 (where 123452 would be your company ID number).
If you’re promoting products or services through an affiliate program, you would have an affiliate link that looks something like this: http://youraffiliatesuccess.com/affiliate/idevaffiliate.php?id=1000
The bottom line is that in each of these cases above, you are LOSING business just because of the web link itself.
In my next post to this web hosting tutorial I’m going count the ways this will cost you… If you have not got my RSS feed yet make sure you do today! I will be covering “URL Redirects” and “URL Masking” in full over the next few days and you really can’t afford not to be utilizing this.
