bullseyeThe more you know about your ideal prospect, the more precise you can be in your “this is for you if…” list.
bullseyeMost importantly: don’t be afraid of limiting your audience. Don’t make vague statements that include everyone. Make statements that clearly address your target market. If no one stops reading and leaves here, the section is pointless.
bullseyeA point you make here could include the elements: who your visitor is, what they do, what they’ve tried and a problem they still have. E.g. “You’re a small business owner and you’re aware of security risks, but all the backup solutions you’ve tried are out of your price range.”

FAQ

Here are answers to some frequently asked questions:

What is .icu?

.icu is a new domain extension that was launched in May 2018. Similar to .com, .net or .edu there are over 850 domain extensions live on the internet. .icu stands for “I See You” and people from all backgrounds and interests are starting to register and use short, memorable .icu domain names.

What else do I need besides a domain name?

In order to have a live functioning site there are a few options ranging from 1 minute of work to a few hours or more.

Forwarding is the easiest and quickest way to get online. You can simply forward your .icu domain to an existing web page, like the one you stream games on or a channel that you post videos.
Using a sitebuilder is the easiest way to have your own website, and is convenient when you need to make changes. You can use a site builder like Weebly to build a web page. Using this option you can embed a live feed or a channel feed and then showcase things like a calendar, sell merchandise or other relevant things to viewers of your page. Weebly is also great if you do want to sell anything becasue they have a fully integrated e-commerce system that helps you list, and then track orders.
If you are a developer and know all about coding and servers you can go somewhere like HostGator, Rackspace or Amazon Web Services to build a site from scratch. These services give you the most flexibility if you want full control however they also take the most time and knowledge to build and launch.

Outside of the above ‘website’ portion of your site you may want:

An SSL Certificate. Have you noticed the green lock on the top on this page and other pages that you visit? Google ranks pages that are secure higher and visitors trust secure pages more. SSL certificates can be purchased alone from companies like Comodo or in tandem with your domain purchase at your preferred registrar.
Social Media Accounts, You probably have this already but if not it is great to have a social account that matches your domain so visitors recognize your brand across multiple platforms.
