You CAN do it yourself and we will guide you to success!
The days of hiring expensive web designers are over. Even if you are a beginner, you will discover that there are user-friendly web building tools available that will allow you to create a professional site in few hours while saving tons of money and time in the process.
Step 1: Register a Domain (Dot Com) Name
If you're looking to create a website that will last, you should register your own domain (dot com) name, rather than creating a site from one of the free web hosters. When you use a free host, you won't have nearly as much freedom when it comes to designing your site. You'll also have to wonder if your site will be around the next day should the company decide to fold or start charging a fee.
Additionally, you may have to put up with annoying pop-ups and banners on your pages. Also, the support is usually very poor since they are providing the service for free. Trust me. It's no coincidence that many of these companies hide the "Contact Us" link on their sites. If that doesn't convince you, read more about why you may not want to create a free website.
So let's get started. Learn how to register your own domain name. Spend few minutes to search the web for the list of free domain names. Choose the name that suits your best. Contact the firm, that providing it and buy it.
Step 2: Select a Website Hosting Company
After you register your domain name, you'll need a hosting company so you can start creating your web pages.
Depending on the kind of web site you need, there are different web hosting options. It's important to note that all of the plans below provide the following:
- Top quality customer service
- Email accounts ()
- Around-the-clock phone and email support
- Ability to update your site 24 hrs/day, 7 days/week
- No obligation to stay
- NO HIDDEN FEES!
It is suggested that you read this ENTIRE page very carefully before making your decision on a host. This will ensure that you choose the best option for your individual needs.
And if you're a beginner or you don't want to spend nights on updating your site or you don't want to learn how to write HTML (programming), make sure you choose a hosting company that supports CMS on his server to help build your pages.
Step 3: How to Create Web Pages
You can either create your pages by writing HTML from scratch, using an HTML editor or by using the tools provided by your web hosting company or by deploying a CMS.
