Thanks all for the responses! I'm glad to see there is real support here. Looking forward to working through the training!

There no other expenses involved Scott.

And is not necessary to by a domain right away ... But is highly recommended if you are serious about your business.

An owned domain is a powerful trust factor both for humans and search engines. It proves that you have serious long-term goals.

Hi Scott
Its up to you whether you buy a domain however if you are really serious about becoming an Online business Owner a dot-com domain is the way to go and $15 is nothing compared to what is waiting for you as you become successful
Just a thought

Hi Scott

It is your business and if you are not ready to purchase your domain yet then wait until you are ready.

There is no rush and it is your business.

Do more of the training and learn more about building your business and then you can reconsider.

Having you own domain help with affiliate programs.

Personally I would say to you do the training.

Domain is your property so it is not an extra charge but an investment into your business.

I hope this helps

It is your choice. If you start with a free siterubix domain, I suggest that you make sure that you can get a dot com one with the same name. Then you can easily change it later.
A dot com website will get better traction always, but it is your choice.
