Owning Your Domain Is Important

Wednesday, March 28, 2012

You're not the only one that didn't know how important owning your domain is. At lotzabuzz, we make sure when we register your domain name that all contact info for the domain is in your business name. This is especially important if you ever need to move your domain to another server, or simply need to prove ownership of the domain name.

On another note, make sure that you keep your domain renewed. It only costs about $15 a year. It is a small price to pay to keep your presence on the internet. 

We recently encountered a customer that let their domain name lapse and did not renew it when then should have. The domain is now worth $1,800. 

Your images are important

Barbara Schriber DesignsYou have great photos of your products for your online store, but now your site is taking a long time to load. Customers don't like to wait for websites to load and your site is bloated! What can you do? Your images need to be resized and compressed for quick viewing in web browsers. Professionals can do this for you quickly and affordably, but if you'd like to give it a try there are many ways to correct this problem.

If you don't have Photoshop or photo editing software, go to http://www.picnik.com/app. This easy-to-use site allows you to correctly resize, edit, and save your images before you make the mistake of not preparing your images BEFORE you place them on your webpage.  As an added bonus, you don't have to pay anything to use picnik. Give it a try, you'll thank us for it.
