  3. Website navigation/ Website content - Make sure your idea for your website is clear. Get a notebook and sketch out what you want the pages to look like and write out as much of the content as you can. If you can't come up with any check out freesticky.com or badass-website-ideas.blogspot.com.
  4. You might also want to use a web template to make it easier for you as well if you don't have time to do it yourself. Some of these are really good and very cheap. Freewebtemplates.com and templatesbox.com.
  5. Design your website - Decide what software you're going to use to design your website. Some of the software platforms that you can use to create and edit your websites are:
  6. Text/Graphics and Web buttons - Use Adobe Photoshop to generate a page header for your website. There are websites that can help if you're not a pro at photoshop.

  10. Last but not least advertise, you can always use Yahoo or Google Adwords and maintain your own budget.

Tips

  • When creating the page header in Photoshop, be carefull not to make it very tall, because in smaller screens it covers half of the screen and the visitors will see only a part of your page's important elements such as menu or text.
  • Decide at the beginning for which screen size you creating the website. What screen resolution your future visitors will use. Older websites were made for 800x600, but now as more and more web user using bigger screens, it can be either for 1024x768 or 1280x1024.

Warnings

  • Do not steal photos or content from other websites.
  • Do not try to cheat Google using your Adsense account.
  • Keep back-up copies of your website.

How to Create a Free Website

How to Create a Free Website

from lissimore inc

Let's say you've already learned what it takes to create a website, but you've decided that you don't want to pay. Here's how to go about establishing a website without spending a dime.

Steps

  1. Find a free web host. Choosing a web host is tricky in general. The most important question to ask when you're choosing a free web host is: how do they make money? If they're not making money from you, they must be making money from advertisements. What kinds of advertisements do they use?
    • Email advertisements: Some free hosting companies provide their service by signing your registration account up for email promotions (spam).
    • Embedded advertisements: Hosting companies using embedded ads will place advertisements on any pages you create using their service.
    • Referrals: Referral systems require that you refer a certain number of paying customers to the company to receive your hosting for free.
    • Advertising Partners: Be wary of free hosting companies that require you buy something from another company to get free hosting. If you have to pay for anything you might as well pay for the hosting.
  2. Look for a host with templates ready for use that don't require any knowledge of HTML but allow you to use custom content if you wish. This will give you time to use the templates and get running quickly while you design your website.
  3. Become your own publicist:
  4. Start building content for your website. Don't change the topic of your writing and make sure it's interesting. For example most people who randomly stumble across your website probably do not want to know every action your dog makes during an average day.
  5. Put your website on Google, Yahoo, and other search engines. This will increase traffic. Also find other popular websites that are somewhat related to your website's topic but aren't necessarily your competition and give them your link. If you have more than one site, link from one to the other.

Tips

  • Design your website with a free WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) or learn how to create a simple web page from scratch using HTML. You can also search for free templates online.
  • Search for lists of free web hosts and visit them. Read what they can provide for you and choose the best one that fits your needs. For example, if you are planning on uploading lots of pictures and videos, make sure you choose a web host that provides enough hosting space for the files.
  • Look at the web host's Frequently Asked Questions which will provide further information on the products and services of the host.
  • Try to get your site submitted to Google, Yahoo or any other major search engine. This will make your site more popular.

Warnings

  • If you have too much web traffic your web host may disable your website for a period of time or require reactivation. If you are planning a website that will generate a lot of traffic free hosting is not for you.

How to Increase Website Traffic for Free

How to Increase Website Traffic for Free

from lissimore inc

Many people spend a lot of money getting a launch their site with strong advertising campaigns. This shouldn't be a setback, however,any money.

Steps

  1. Optimize your website to be search-engine friendly. Submit it to various search engines and directories. In addition to major search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Ask, Bing and MSN, it's worth submitting to lesser known web directories. If your website is listed in as many places as possible, it can boost your rankings in major search engines as well.
  2. Spread the word about your affiliate program by submitting it to affiliate program directories and contacting the owners of related websites.
  3. Create a links page that will contain the links to other non-competing websites in the same industry. Contact the owners of other websites with your proposal to exchange links. You will add their link to your links page, and they will link to your website in return.
  4. Post in forums. Visit the online discussion forums where people in your target market like to gather. Post useful responses to people's questions, and include a link to your website at the end of your post next to your name. Although you ultimately want to get your sig file with the link to your site seen as often as possible, don't overdo it with your posts, otherwise other forumites won't respect you, and therefore won't visit your site.
  5. Comment on blogs. Visit other people's blogs on the topic related to your website. Most blogs allow you to add comments about the issues being discussed. Add insightful comments about the blog topics, and leave your website link. Your comment and your link will permanently remain on the blog website.
  6. Create an e-mail "signature" - your name, your website address and a short tag-line describing the main benefit of your site. Set your e-mail program to automatically add your signature to every e-mail that you send.
  7. Look into traffic exchanges. There are many types of traffic exchanges but the idea is the same - you team up with other webmasters, and they send you traffic in exchange for you sending them traffic. Search the web for "traffic exchange" to find those services.
  8. Create something of value that people will pass around. It can be a report with useful information that you allow people to give away. It can also be some kind of cool and unusual web-page that people will want to e-mail to all their friends. Of course, the pass-around item will include your advertisement and your link, spreading the word about your website. This is a "viral" strategy.
  9. Write articles on the topic related to your website, and include a link to your site in your author bio. Submit your articles to article directories, and allow people to publish your article in their newsletters and websites. Your articles will spread around the web like wildfire. People will read them and visit your website. The best part is that people who read your articles will regard you as an expert, and they will be much more likely to buy from you when they go to your website. How's that for a free publicity?
  10. Use accurate keywords for your content. The point of keywords is that they are the terms most people looking for your article by topic will search by. Check those with free Google terms and use the most popular relevant one in your title - a descriptive title to let them know right away what it is if it's a word with multiple meanings. Drawing blood for a phlebotomist is not the same thing as a comics artist drawing blood in a fight scene. Be very literal and then use the exact keywords several times in the article where they are relevant, as well as synonyms. Don't overdo it, or you look like you're trying to spam Google. Just use the keywords naturally when describing the topic.
    • If it is a confusing keyword phrase like Drawing Blood, link to the other meaning and mention that in the first paragraph. "This article is about drawing blood in graphic novels. Phlebotomy is drawing blood for medical tests or donations - here's the other page on "Drawing Blood." Then link to the phlebotomy page in that. By redirecting confused people you leave them a good impression and they might stop to read your article if they also like doing comics art!
  11. Start an e-zine for your web site. When people read each issue they'll be reminded to revisit your web site. Submit it to all the free e-zine directories on the internet.A news letter!
  12. Start your own online discussion community. It could be an online message board, e-mail discussion list or chat room. When people get involved in your community, they will regularly return to communicate with others.


  13. Advertise your site at free classified ad sites. There are many of these on the net. Some of the more popular ones are craigslist, inetgiant, freeadvertisingforum, and gumtree.
  14. Join free safe-lists. These are lists of subscribers who have opted-in to send and receive emails to each other. You can instantly reach potentially thousands of people by sending out emails, and you don't have to worry about receiving spam complaints either because everyone on the list has opted-in to receive emails.
  15. Getting a myspace page could also increase your site traffic because hundreds of people will see it.
  16. Constantly update content on your web-page, so having a news section is a great deal for search engines especially.
  17. Update your Facebook status to let your friends know everytime you update your blog and create a Facebook fan page. Your friend's friends will see when they join the fan page or comment on your status.
  18. Submit your website to top social bookmarking sites to create a back link to your website, which will increase you page rank as well.
  19. Sign up to yahoo answers and leave great helpful comments to questions people are asking for, leaving a link back to your site with more helpful tips on it.
  20. Stay on topic. All this socializing, forum commenting and question answering ought to be on your website's main topic. The more your activity and site content match in topic, the more likely the right people find it. The more targeted your affiliate links are to the topic, the better you'll do with them too. People don't mind advertising that's on topic, it starts to look like a convenience directory rather than irritating commercials.

Tips

  • Use word of mouth. Tell everyone you know about your website.
  • Whatever types of free advertising you decide to pursue, make sure that you use ad tracking software. This will allow you to track where your visitors are coming from, and what types of advertising are the most effective.
  • Start right here on wikiHow. Read up on how to publicize your website on wikiHow without breaking the rules. If you can provide quality content, you can create a win-win relationship where you share knowledge and get publicity in return.
  • Create Business Cards that have something like "This card is worth $400,000. Let me show you how" then have your url at the bottom of the card. There are websites out there that allow you to create and receive business cards for free.

Warnings

  • Steer clear of any advertising tactics that could be construed as spam.
  • Don't try to use meta data with the keywords that has nothing to do with your content because Google will bring your rank down.
