A Helping Hand

Today, or rather, yesterday, I paid a visit to a local up and coming organisation. They're an enthusiastic lot, promising, talented and want to spread their wings and fly. Everything is lined up for them perfectly. A good track record, a planned major event and their members are hyped up for whatever is in store for them.

But even so, I noticed that what they lack is a presence on the internet. I've seen their website, beautifully designed, but sadly, no ".com" or ".org". Their 'official' website is hosted on blogger and has a ".blogspot.com" in their url.

So what I did was I offered full sponsorship for their domain name eg. www.LOREMIPSUM.com. There are many benefits to having a ".com".

1) Professional appearance.
2) Easy to remember.
3) A true web presence.
4) Adds credibility.

Alright, 4 is not many, but hey, those reasons are good enough!

So to that particular organisation and whoever is involved, think about it. Think hard. Maybe, this isn't such a bad idea after all...
