The most exciting of them all, in my opinion, is "The Great Domain Name Giveaway." Any Cruzio member that stops into our downtown Store on Saturday, December 15th anytime from 9am-4pm is entitled to a free one-year domain name registration. If you're not sure what a domain name is, it's basically reserving a customized address for you on the Internet. For example, you could register a name for your family, like familycruz.com, or get your business name reserved. Once you've got your name, it's easy to start getting email to this address, like mom at familycruz.com, or build a Web site at www.familycruz.com If your business isn't on the Internet yet, take this opportunity to launch your Web presence! Also, if you bring in at least three cans of food as a donation to the Second Harvest Food Bank, we'll give you a second one-year domain name registration for free! Give it as a gift, or keep it for yourself. ============================================ Brown Bag Workshop "Planning Your Web Presence" Thursday, December 6 12-1:30 pm Speaking of launching your Web presence, we have a Brown Bag workshop aimed at any business owner who either needs to launch or relaunch their site or needs some tips on making their site successful. It's called "Planning Your Web Presence," and we'll go over the whole process of getting your domain registered (which you'll get for free at The Giveaway). In addition, we'll be giving you tips on design, search engine optimization, ecommerce, and marketing your presence. Plus of course we'll be happy to answer your questions. Early registration is recommended at http://classes.cruzio.com ============================================ "One Night Web Site" "One Day Web Site" December 11 5-8pm December 13 9-12 noon Once you've made a plan for your Web presence, it's time to apply it to the creation of your site. Cruzio can help. We're offering two classes, "One Night Web Site" and "One Day Web Site" (same class, it's just held at different times). We'll show you how to use the amazing open source content management system Joomla to power your site and allow you to make changes without needing to know HTML. It's pretty hard to promise a completed Web site by the end of the class (is a site ever really completed?), so what we'll do is give you the foundation and the skills necessary to build your site the way you want it to look and function. By the end of the class, you'll be well on your way to becoming your own Web master! We're offering one in the morning and one at night, as we know that people have different schedules, especially around the holidays. As always, early registration is recommended at http://classes.cruzio.com ============================================= Special bonus for those still reading! Use coupon code DEC10 when registering to get 10% off your class fees! Thanks, Mike Brogan and the Cruzio Classes and Events Team classes at cruzio.com http://classes.cruzio.com 831.459.6301 x 231
