1. Your first .com for just $1.00!

This October, get the first year of your first .com domain for just $1.00. That’s the cost of a cup of coffee at a diner or a song on iTunes. And for one month only—from October 9 through November 9—it’s the price of an entire year’s worth of your domain name—DNS, two email accounts, email forwarding, an SSL certificate, and WHOIS privacy.

Get your $1.00 .com domain!

2. How to make a WordPress site

WordPress allows you to have a website all your own, which in turn enables you to have more visibility and discoverability on the internet than what you get when your online presence is limited to a Facebook fan page for example. That’s because WordPress gives you more freedom and control over your website. Having a WordPress site can also help you develop web marketing skills and general internet literacy as you get familiar with managing a website all on your own.
