How To Make A Website
Welcome to the world of website creation.
I you you want to make your own website
you've come to the right place. Making a website
isn't extremely difficult and it's certainly not as expensive
to make a website as people would lead you to believe.
You'll find that I'm not trying to sell you anything
on this website although I provide reliable options to
help make a website easier and more affordable. So sit
back, browse this website and begin to realize how easy
it is to make a website.
Below I've listed 3 basic steps to get a website started. I'm
assuming that you already have a few ideas running through your head
so let's get started!
Step 1 - Register A Domain NameOnce you've
decided on an pursuing a website idea one of the first things you'll
want to do is register a domain name. There are quite a few things
to consider when registering a domain name. I've put together a list
of common
domain name registration tips. Domain prices have
come down in price recently and can be found for as little as $6.95
with a reputable domain registrar. Some companies run upwards of $35
per year and there is no difference the quality of the domain. The
only difference you'll find is a few of the free benefits from
certain registrars.
With
WebsiteSpot.com you will receive a free website
starter page, online photo sharing, blog software, email
forwarding accounts among a few other things for only
$6.95 per year.
Step 2 - Choose How You're Going To Build Your Website
There are a lot of different options when it
comes to making a website. Do you hire a web designer or do you
build it from scratch or do you use an online website builder?
Each has it's benefits and it's drawbacks.
View this link to read some additional
detail about each
website
creation option. The
things to consider is your HTML knowledge,
the amount of time you have and ultimately
what your website is about.
If you're not interested in learning about
HTML coding before you make a website your
best bet is to go with an
online
website builder. The only problem is
that you lose some flexibility in regards to
the site.
If you're wanting to make a website from
scratch or use a
website template you're probably best
suited for a full What You See Is What You
Get (WYSIWYG) editor. The popular choices
for this are Adobe Dreamweaver, Microsoft
FrontPage, or
CoffeeCup which is free. These options
will give you the flexibility to do pretty
much anything you'd like to do.
Lastly is a web designer, it's going to cost
you more but you're free of all of the
knowledge to get a professional website
online. Before you decide to go with this
option be sure to read about
hiring a
web design company.
Step 3 - Find A Web Hosting Company
Once you make a website you will need to
find a company that serves as your web host. This company provides
the space on their servers to publish your website.
There's no reason to pay a lot for web
hosting. There are companies out there
taking advantage of people's lack of
knowledge about web hosting and charging $20
and $25 per month for very basic hosting
that offers no help (web building tools) for
beginners.
You can find options for as little as $4.95
per month and offer more space & features
that you'll ever need. WebsiteSpot.com
offers
affordable web hosting and 24 hour
support. I've also put together a list of
web
hosting reviews of other reputable
companies that offer affordable web hosting
as well. Lastly you can find some detailed

Online
Ultimately I'm assuming the purpose is to
make money online and eventually be able to work from home. The very
first thing I was to say is that there isn't such thing as a Get
Rich Quick opportunity. Everything you earn, especially at the
beginning is going to be earned through hard work.
With that said, there are a few
options that give you a leg up on
your competition. Take a look at the
video below for an option that I
strongly recommend whether you're
just starting out or if you've
successfully made multiple websites.
