People are increasingly using Facebook as their sole presence on the internet – and that’s not a good thing. Back in 2005, bands were investing Hundreds (if not thousands) into ‘Custom Myspace Layouts’ to make their pages really stand out from the crowd – then, as people began to desert the service, those aforementioned bands were left with a very expensive tumbleweed profile. Shame.
However unlikely it may sound – it’s almost certain that a service will pop up in the future that’ll ‘steal’ hundreds of millions of users away from Facebook, this is just the way of the world. People that have invested a lot of time and effort into building a great facebook page will simply have to start over on this new service yet again.
With all this in mind – it’s obvious that the only way to keep a permanent and consistent presence on the web is through having your own WEBSITE. It’s completely understandable that some bands simply cannot afford to have one built, pay for hosting and a domain name etc… but we’ve found a service that eliminates all that and gets your band/business/idea onto to web in seconds.
Sitefly – a FREE service that takes your Facebook ‘Page’ and converts it into a website in a matter of seconds. You can edit further if you wish, but we’ve found that their default conversion is pretty decent, if a little basic. As an added bonus, your new website is also optimized for Smartphones and Tablets.
If you haven’t got a presence on the web at all – this could very well be your inroad into having one. What have you got to lose? It’s completely FREE.
You can elect to use their .sitefly.co domain (as seen below) or you can simply forward it onto your own domain.
