iPower: Recommended Webhosting Company for new IPC member

iPower Web-Hosting Service:

For IPC business, if your budget is not VERY tight, you should have your own domain name. Except the reasons displayed in IPC center, there are some other advantages;
  1. To use PPC advertising on Google, you MUST have your own domain name;
  2. You can have your own business email account;
  3. You can set up your UNIQUE landing page (It is very easy, I will write another post focus on this issue in my blog);
  4. If you build a new landing page, you can choose some cheap or FREE autoresponder service;
  5. You can setup e-store to sell the individual products with no additional cost.
However, DO NOT use the webhosting service (Lunarpage) recommended in IPC training area. A lot of people, including myself, have bad experience there. They said your domain name is free for lifetime, but you still need pay $4.95 per month for hosting. Actually almost ALL the webhosting companies offer free domain name for life.

To SAVE some money and get some very useful BONUSES, make sure use iPower:

Maybe iPower is the most popular webhosting company. Now their hosting plans are on sale.
For starter plan, you only pay $3.95 per Month. However, I strongly recommend you use their professional web-hosting plan for $3.98 per Month (cheaper than Lunarpage).
In addition, they offer valued bonuses, including $50 ads credits on Google Adwords, 60 days free RatePoint membership*, free website builder**, Google webmaster tools*** and marketing content package.
Obviously it is a much better deal than Lunarpage.

Some features of iPower that Lunarpage DOESN'T have:
  • $3.95 /mon for starter plan, $3.98/mon for professional;
  • $50 ads credits on Google Adwords (for Pro plan);
  • $60 days free RatePoint membership*;
  • Free website builder**;
  • Google webmaster tools***;
  • Marketing content package****.
*RatePoint offers you various service, including autoresponder (so you don't need other autoresponder service!)
**By using free website builder, you can build an unique landing page (very important for long term success) even you don't have any website building knowledage.
***Google webmaster tools provides you with detailed reports about your pages' visibility on Google
****Learn how to market your site properly and keep them coming back for more with fresh content.

Please notice Lunarpage has NONE of these features.

If you have register domain name with Lunarpage, I STRONGLY suggest you request a refund (they have 30 days money back guarantee anyway).

Some Modest Suggestions For New Members Of IPC Program

Congratulations! You can get started with your new online business now! Get ready for a real change of your life!
If you are new in online marketing, I would like to give you some modest suggestions.

1. About webhosting:
If your budget is not VERY tight, you should have your own domain name.
However, DO NOT use the website hosting recommended in IPC training area. You can choose a CHEAPER and BETTER one.
If you want to SAVE some money and get some valued BONUSES, you should choose JustHost web hosting (click the link below for coupon):
JustHost Coupon.
Make sure click the hyperlink above and use coupon code to get the lowest price.
DO NOT worry about the set-up, the processes are TOTALLY same. Moreover, the company can help you set up your website for free, but Lunarpage won't do that.
If you have already ordered the webhosting from Lunarpage, I SRTRONGLY suggest you request a refund (they have 30 days money back guarantee), because the bonuses offered by webhostingpad is too good to miss.

2. About Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising:
PPC is the most efficient marketing method. You should use it soon or late. However, it is a little risky to start with Google or Yahoo, because they are relatively expensive (especially Google), use Search 123 and Miva first. Set up your daily budget around $10. For coupon of Yahoo, MIVA and Search123, click the link below:
Free PPC credits
If you would like to use Google Adwords, make sure study the video tutorial by Google VERY carefully.

3. About email address:
It is a detail, but it can affect your performance.
If you have your own domain name,use the business email account offered by the web-hosting company. DO NOT include any number in the email account; it will increase your spam score (for example, my business email is dongh@go4profitonline.com).

4. About Autoresponder:
Auto-responder is very helpful, highly recommended. Make sure set up it correctly.
I am using Aweber, it is very powerful. However, if you want to save some money, you can totally use some cheap or even free autoresponder.
If you have your own domain name, you can build an unique landing page and insert the code to it.
Moreover, make some changes on the default follow-up email messages offered by IPC admin if you think they are not good (I don’t like them anyway).

5. About marketing methods:
At the beginning, do not use many methods.
DO NOT put too much effort to drive huge traffic; you should try to increase your conversion rate first, e.g., optimize your ads copy or optimize your follow-up emails.

6. About free marketing:
If you have enough time, use article marketing! That is the most efficient way to drive quality traffic. I suggest you to use squidoo: www.squidoo.com
Moreover, you can earn some cash by publishing article on that!

7. About SafeList:
DO NOT believe those companies that guarantee to generate HUGE traffic for you (safelist), none of them works (I wasted a lot of money on that!). I will tell you the proven companies if I find some in the future.
Solo ads is a good method, but not all ezines works well. For recommended solo ads provider, you can read this post (update for real time):
Recommended Solo Ads

8. About the master resell right:
DO NOT ignore the value of your resell right of the individual eBooks and software products.
To sell them is very profitable. I suggest you sell them on PayDotCom (FREE). You can register a paydotcom account for free

PayDotCom

You can find several ebooks that tell you how to use your resell right in your IPC package.
