You can just do a Facebook page for the website url. You don’t have to have a website to have a great app. While it may help marketing wise, I know may indies who just create a Facebook page for thier app instead of doing a full website.
To hang off the Wordpress comment, I would recommend using Wordpress.com. It’s free and easy to use. You can get a website up and running in no time. Then, you can edit the content of the site easily using the GUI and presto, you have a website!
Alright thanks for all the advice everyone! I have a facebook page setup now so that should do the job for a quicker release until I get a website up and running… Again thank you!
