I'm in the process of owning own buisness & curious of how to set up own web site can you help me?

1 A Website- You can either get a free website from hosts like Yahoo Geocites, Doteasy, or Bravenet, or "Paid domain name and Webhosting". There're Web Hosting plans that cost as little as $2.95 per month. That's less than one-tenth of your phone bill, so you should consider it.

2 Get an Idea- What is your site going to be about? You can make you site be about anything you want. It's your Website.

3 Creating a Website- A website can be as little as one page, as long as it makes sense. And the fact is that a one-page website can generate you as much as $2,000 per day. You shouldnâ€™t really stress yourself in that area.

4 Website Promotion: Here is the part most people forget to do. Of course you have to let people know about your website. Tell your friends, send some emails, and talk about it in forums. These are the simple ways you can promote your site. Also you might try submitting to search engines like google and yahoo.

The TOP 10 WAYS to not Winning Awards

10 Broken images and links. Make sure all your images display properly, and your links actually go somewhere - or your application will go into the trash.

9 Spelling and grammar misteaks. If you don't take the time to get these right, don't expect the reviewer to take the time to give you an award.

8 Slow Pages. Your beautiful homepage is 500K and sited on a free website site like Geocities. The reviewer will die of old age before he sees your page.

7 Using a HTML generator program to make your pages. After you've seen enough pages, you know what pages were created with what programs; they have a "look" to them. Show you care enough to craft your own HTML.

6 Stupid Java applets. If it doesn't have a real purpose (and you didn't write it yourself), decaffeinate please. Same goes for JavaScript scrolling messages. Old hat, it marks you as a clueless net newbie. I can't tell you how many times I've had to suffer through some stupid Java newsticker applet that slowed my machine to a crawl.

5 Colored text on a colored or patterned background. You want an award and the poor reviewer can't even read your page!

4 More than 1 ad banner on the page. The reviewer will click on the nicest banner and give that site an award! This is a serious mistake. Put 1 banner on a page, tops (or maybe 2 or 3 buttons). And if you're smart, don't put a banner on your main (home) page. That page should advertise YOUR site, not someone else's.

3 Your entire site is on a single 3-megabyte page. Books have more than one chapter - so should your website.

2 Extraneous content. Don't put up an animated gif just because it looks nice. If there's no good reason for something to be on your page, get rid of it. "Perfection is when there's nothing else you can remove."

And the #1 way to annoy a reviewer

1 Music. Let us count the ways this really annoys the hell out of a reviewer. It takes forever to load. It often crashes their browser. And if they don't share your taste in music, you're screwed. There's a reason silence is golden! Never, ever, ever play music on someone's machine unless they say they want to hear it (by clicking on a link, for example).

Good Luck men.

First you'll want high-speed internet including a webpage (you can upgrade to a business one later, once the bandwidth becomes an issue). Probably available through your local phone company or cable company.

Netscape Composer is a free webpage development tool - I used it some when I was developing the website for a school that I'm the volunteer webmaster for.

SmartFTP was a free tool that works well for uploading your webpages to the server.

Look around at websites to see what you like and get an idea about how you'd like your site to look.

Start simple, you can always add more later.

Get a book (web development for dummies, or something like that) that'll explain the basics (navigation, e-mail...).

Realistically, if you don't already know this stuff, you may want to hire someone to get you started.

Hi, my Name is Brandon, and I'm a Texas resident starting a graphic design firm and if you don't mind, I would love to get you as a client. If you are interested, email me at brbissoon@yahoo.com.

I bought my domain from yahoo and use thier Site Builder program, it is really fun and it allows you to do a lot of different things. Every one that has seen my site likes it. I tend to do more personable things. If a person feels like they know you a little more then they are more apt to do business with you than the person that wasn't.

I used site builder also from Yahoo and its pretty cool.. check out my site and if you have any questions email me..

I suggest u hire a a pro, there is nothing worse than a noob designed business site. Am sure u can find someone if you do a search for web designers
