So you are asking your self "I would like to have a web site but I don't
know where to begin". Well I am going to give you a few pointers and resources
to get started with.
First you will need to figure out what you like to share with the world.
Maybe you just want to show off pictures of your kids. Or you want to share you
family history or genealogy.
Once that is decided you will need to think of a color scheme or design. If
you are unsure there are places on the web that already have some laid out for
you to use. (I have provided some in my Graphics Area). It is best to add things to your site that
will want to make people come back to you site like valuable information, free
stuff and more. There is also ways to get traffic to your site by swapping
banners and links. (I will be adding links on the resource page for some of
the banner sites).
You will need to pick out a web editor to use
(Check out the resource links to several free
& Demo apps.) As well as tips on how to use them.
Ok you say you have this done. How do I get my site from my computer to
the web and where do I put it? I use a program called WS-FTP95
to "FTP" the information to my site. Or if you are using Microsoft FrontPage you can
publish right from that program.
The next thing to do after you have
made your site available is to let people
know that you have made your place on the web. The best way to do this is to
register with the all of the search engines you can. But before you do that you
might want to test your site to see everything works (No broken links and that
you have good design) . |
