It said it was free
so I opted in to see.

The act of a giver
with a will to deliver.

So I gave up my name
Boom! Got into the game.

Just a newbie on fire
with unstoppable desire.

With so much to know
and the button on Go,

I took off like a dart
before I heard start.

On a quest for a pitch
in a marketable niche.

Where I’m aiming to please
If you land on my squeeze.

There’s no place to hide
So hold on for the ride.

In this wild wild west
where I’m only a guest.

First I’ll start off with grace
take a room at my space.

Find a forum to lurk
where I won’t be a jerk

Then I’m off to the coast
to meet up with my host.

Where I’ll find a new name
for my address domain.

There’s no need to invent
what’s already been spent.

You may wind up the fool
and be sent back to school.

When you pay by the click
you may wind up real sick.

It’s been put to the test
takes a will of the best.

If you’re faint at heart
then you better not start.

You need to be frugal
to stand up to Google.

If you don’t put a cap,
make sure you don’t nap.

If there’s too much demand
you’ll end up in the sand.

There’s an interesting turn
and a newbie will learn

Not to spend one more dime
on a promise on line.

It’s a generous twist
while they’re building their list.

And it’s our turn to dine,
As they move the free line.
