How To Build A Website And Put It Online
October 4, 2005 11:26 pmTo sell anything online, you must be able to put a website
online that will sell your product/service. That means
that it must have the ability to convince your prospects
and visitors that you have the product/service they are
looking for.
However, before you can write the copy and market your
site, you have to be able to construct the website and
put it online.
That is why the main point of this article is how you can
easily put a money-making website on your server.
You used to have to know HTML to build a webpage, but now
there are many free and paid web templates that will allow
you to place a webpage on your server without knowing HTML.
A package of 5 new and unique templates is offered each and
every month through TurboMembership.
Now… the HTML editors that are available are easy to
use, even for newbies.
Here is a free and great HTML editor: www.nvu.com
If you can use MS Word, you can use this HTML Editor!
Alternatively, you can look up “HTML Editor” in your
favorite search engine to find one that you like.
Practice working with your preferred program.
Here are some tips on what a good website should have:
- Dark text on a light background, as this enables your
reader to read your website most easily. Black text on
a white background is best.
- Make sure your website has easy navigation from one
page to another. Most sites will put links at the top
or on the left side of the webpage. Make sure all
links work properly.
- In your site’s meta tags, make sure your site’s
keywords are included, but not excessively, as this
may cause your site to be banned from the search
engines.
When you are finished building your webpage, use your
webhost’s FTP (File Transfer Protocol) Program (or any
other FTP program) to transfer the website file from
your computer to your host’s server. This will enable
you to place your website online so that other people
can view it.
However, before you show it to the rest of the world,
realize that not all web browsers will display your
site in the same way. That is why it is important to
make sure your site is displayed correctly in all web
browsers.
How do you do this you ask, since you don’t have every
web browser installed on your computer?
Simply go to this website: www.anybrowser.com.
and it will allow you to view your site in every web
browser; this way, you’ll know whether you need to make
changes to the HTML code or not.
You want your website to be displayed correctly in all
browsers or you will get far fewer people viewing your
site and ordering from you, so this is a very important
step. Don’t skip it!
Once you have finished placing your website on your
host’s server and you have verified that it is correctly
displayed in all web browsers, you can work on the
copywriting and marketing of your website.
Also remember that apart from the professional templates
offered each and every month through your membership at
TurboMembership you can also get some READY to go
completed websites you can instantly use… Here is an
example: www.softwares4profit.com.
There is no need to know HTML for using that template.
You just add your information and that’s it!
I told you: TurboMembership offers EVERYTHING :).
