"One of the most effective ways of advertising is to make a website. It's very cheap to make a website and anybody in the world can find what they're looking for, can find you, if they're looking for you. If they're looking for something that you offer that they would be looking for even if you weren't offering it, even better. So what you need to do is, first, choose a name, you need to choose some sort of name. Now our band name, "Spoken Groove", I looked it up in the domain registrar, and found out spokengroove.com, .org, .net, .tv, .asia, .whatever, was all wide open and available. So I went and bought spokengroove.com, .net and .org. Now I just limit it down to spokengroove.com, and I pay for that, it's only $10 a year or less to register that domain each time. There are a number of different domain companies. You can go to mydomain.com, you can go do godaddy.com, and register those things. So choose a name like that. I've got, my last name is Nevland, I have a new business consulting business, and the name that I chose for that one, thelandofnev.com. People remember those kinds of things, right? So you want to make sure that your website name is very memorable."
