Convincing other people

[Terri]

Hi.

Joined up with cameraforfree and trying to get greens but so far only one yellow.
Everyone that I know wont do it cos they are convinced that its a scam or dont like putting their details online. What can I say to convince them? ive even linked them to exceem to see the proof for themselves.
Got the freebie business cards done.. now just gotta get them out there.

your best to make a standard site, then wack some proof on there, and explain how it all works, people wont just sign up to some huge referral link url just like that,

All the BBC video os mostyl crap quality, but it does the job for me

Yep, detox has got it. Making a site (even a cheap one) would help loads.

dont even cost to make a site, if ya want to start of small just do a free one,

I've recently tried using Frontpage for the first time to put together a basic site. When you talk about "a free one" does that mean that it would have a really longwinded url?

I was going to buy a .com url (not sure what yet) and then get some cheap hosting. Is that how it works, I'm a bit new to this.

Detox - I'm pretty sure that you once posted that a small site can be hosted at home. How does that work? (sorry if it wasn't you!)

i find its best to get a domain name for cheap my one was about £3 for a year which is a .biz got from GoDaddy good prices, then you can get a cheap host to really anywhere, im with bluehost, not by choice though, my dad;s got an account so using his account lol,

Dont think it was me, what did it say?

Or alternatively get a .co.nr domain for free at www.freedomain.co.nr

[TheDetox]

yea that is better than a huge free one or a re-direct one,
