So You Want to Know About Creating A Website
The purpose of this website is to help people understand all that is involved in having an online presence. I have come across many people who want to have a website and they seem to believe that once they select and register a domain name, they now have a website. They don't realize that the website needs to be designed, and hosted.
Beginners do not make the mistake of purchasing a domain before they have started to design their site. Determined the type of site you want to create first and this will aid in selecting the best domain name for your website or blog you'd like to create.
Have fun enjoying the other resources that are available to you on our website. Be sure to come and visit us frequently as we will be adding more resources to this site. If you are interested or who like some information on a particular topic that involve web design please contact us.
1. Plan your website: What type of web site will you be creating? An informational site, personal, generating money? You might want to create a blog or a newletter. See Types of Websites
2. Finding your Niche: Write down your interests, have expert knowledge in or maybe a hobby. If your hobby is fishing, narrow it down to small mouth bass fishing, ice fishing or deep sea fishing (or something else within that theme). Research keywords you will use for your theme. Don't have an idea for a business idea, use Small Business Locator and Idea Finder.
3. Steps to Getting a Web Site On-line: After you have determined the type of website you want to create you can use the links in the left navigation bar to find more information on registering a domain name, select a web hosting company and different design options for creating your website.
Good Luck and have fun!
