How to Make Your Own Web Site For Free
Looking for a free web site maker? Welcome to the wide world of web sites.
You have finally made the decision to stake your claim amongst the millions
of other users out there. But you have no idea where to begin. You may
ask, “Where do I get my own website?” or “How much will
it cost? Do I have the internet know how to pull this off?” First
time website creators have lots of question. Luckily, they are all easily
answered. Creating your own website is quick and easy. Your very own completely
free web site can be up and running in as little as an hour. But, first
things first:
Plan First
This is a universal rule no matter what adventure you are embarking on.
Start by asking yourself a few questions that will help you discern the
direction of your new website. Is this site for business or for pleasure?
There is a big difference between the two. Depending on how big the business
is the two types of websites will have wildly different needs. Is style
important to you? What would you like your website to look like? There are
thousands of different free web site templates out there to choose from
and making a decision before you start browsing your options will cut your
searching time in half. Keep in mind that the design will be the first thing
that a visitor sees when he opens up your web page. Make sure that it reflects
your goals.
How Much Expertise Do I Have?
Now that you have decided what you want your free website to look like,
you are ready to start building. This is a good time to take an inventory
of your Internet skills. How much do you know about coding? Do you know
how to upload files and create hyperlinks? Most of us don’t so there’s
no need to panic. While doing it yourself offers you the most creative
options there is hope for those of us who know nothing about HTML. Many
websites offer step-by-step tutorials for creating your own free web site.
It is the Internet’s version of “Website Making for Dummies.”
Even the most computer illiterate will be able to follow the easy steps
enumerated in these user-friendly programs.
Now that you know how to make your own free website, make sure that you
explore your options for directing traffic towards your site. All of your
hard work will be wasted if no one is there to see it.
