This should take you to the site builder platform. On this site builder platform, the first step is to choose the build a free site tab. You will be asked to choose a domain name that will end with siterubix.com.
A domain name is the first part of the address of your site. For example, in the web address Amazon.com, the domain name is Amazon. Many domain names end with .com, .org, .net, .edu and many others and these names have a price tag.
But a domain name that ends with siterubix.com is free. After choosing you domain name, you will also need a name for your site (step 2). Many people have the same name for their domain and site name.

Once you have a domain name, site name and theme for your site, click on build my site (step 4) and within minutes you will have a site all your own. Congratulations on this achievement. You can get your business on the roll now.

Hi Denise, a free website is a great idea to start with until learning the basics.
I am looking for ways to get into online marketing but I have not any skills like website building.
But can you make money with a SiteRubix website or transfer it later in my own domain?
Hi Ilias,
SiteRubix is good for a beginner with little to spend but it’s good to upgrade to a personal website as soon as possible.
You can definitely make money with a siteRubix account and transfer to your own domain later.
