I am not Internet savvy and have no clue about setting up a Website. Should I get a VeryVIP Hosting package or what other options are good?

After thinking for a while about what you're really asking, I would have to say that the answer is No, and you don't have any other 'good' options at this time. A website or blog is only a tool. Until you have some idea what a tool really does, or how to use it, why would you buy one?

You need to start with some basics. Go and get a free blogger account, and learn how to use that first. I say blogger because its integrated with Google better than the others (see: http://blogger.com).

Safelists are another way to get free advertising, along with traffic exchange sites.

You can find them on Google, or Bing. Only sign up for the free bonuses, and track your ads for results. Don't pay for ads unless you get really lucky with a list.

Traffic Exchange sites are a little quirky, but sometimes it can be educational to surf them for a while. Again, only take the free sign up bonuses.

With either method, you can earn credits by surfing or reading

You should help them, yes. And too, you should ask them about their upline and why that upline isn't helping them. If their upline isn't doing its job, then you should point out that they should give their upline an appropriate score on the monthly ratings...

Generally, the purpose of any advertisement is to attract potential buyers out of a crowd, and introduce to them your product or service. A 'good' ad is usually one that generates a lot of well qualified leads with minimal expense.

SFI has already gone to great expense to create and test a number of advertising means here:

If you are building an "SFI Website", then it probably is not going to be personal. SFI is a business, so treat your website as an extension of your business.

For building out your site, just use Wordpress. It is no longer just a blogging platform, but is now a complete content management system. Yes, if you want to waste a lot of time you could learn other systems, but why bother? There are tons of good free WP tutorials on the web. Also there is a plethora of great plug-ins

Initiative and Motivation are two big differences between those that achieve only mediocrity, and those who become what we generally regard as successful.

If you are trying to encourage your downline, I suggest going over what motivates them, and discussing what initiatives they may be willing to take.

How does sponsoring many affiliates help me?
