There is no simple way to create a web site. As a person who has been involved in webpage design since the day of Windows 3.11 and Netscae Navigator 1.1, I may be able to tell you some tips about web site creation.



First of all you must decide your web site's topic or theme. You should work on something you are good at. For instance, you can do something about programming, sports and games, travel, books review, astronomy, health, education, any hobby, and etc.



Next, do some research by reading books, journal, info from the Internet and etc. Follow by designing a framework for your contents, get the main topic and subtopics properly arranged.



To start writing your contents, you should use a GUI-based webpage development program such as MS Frontpage, Macromedia Dreamweaver and etc. Besides, you should also learn some basics of HTML so that you can customize your page better.

For MS Frontpage, you have to purchase it. However, if you have Windows Vista, you can use notepad that come with it to design your web page using HTML.



After you have done all your web pages, you can then contact a web hosting company to register your domain name and to get a web server to store your files for online viewing. you just need to pay a nominal fee. For example, domain name registration is only about USD$18. Offcourse you can register with a free hosting provides such as



http://geocities.yahoo.com/



To market your web site ,first of all you must submit your site to the major search engines through many submit it website, like



http://www.submitexpress.com/



http://www.google.com/addurl/



and many others.



Remember to add all possible keywords related to your site in your META Tag so that search engines can crawl your site and find the necessary info.



Next you must market your site with whatever ways possible, such as by emailing your friends, join discussion groups, leave messages in guestbooks of other related web sites, join forums, and yes, answer questions in Yahoo! answers section.



Anyway, you must enrich your contents and update your web pages regularly.

Answer 5

It's probably more complicated than you imagine, but you should definitely be able to grasp it.



First off, you need to realize that web pages are coded with HTML, CSS, PHP, and other sorts of coding. You don't have to know how to code; but if you can you will be able to create much more effectively.



If you want to learn to code, START OFF with it. Work hard at it. One good place to learn HTML and CSS is:

http://www.code2design.com/

You can also find lots of good books and web sites on the subject. Just Google it.



PHP is for dynamic sites. Dynamic means the content changes based on different factors, as opposed to static, which means it changes when YOU (the web designer), and you alone, change it. If you want to do simple stuff you won't need PHP. But if you want to create your own forums or something as complicated as eBay, you'll need it.

A great site to learn PHP is:

http://www.killerphp.com/

You can learn MySQL there too, something you'll probably need to deal with also.



I realize this is a lot of information for you to receive all at once, but try not to get overwhelmed. Take it slow and keep plugging away.



Once you get all this down, you'll need a web host. You might want one to start off with anyway, so you have somewhere besides your computer to put the web site.

A few good and cheap hosts are:

http://www.1and1.com/

http://www.hostgator.com/

There are many more, check them all out and discover your options.



For free, you can host at:

http://www.zymic.com/

http://www.freewebs.com/



OK, now time to move on to what to do if you don't want to learn to code. You could buy something like Adobe Dreamweaver. It can help you create web pages with a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) GUI (Graphical User Interface). No, I did not make up those terms.

http://www.adobe.com/

You should probably learn to code anyway for the best results with Dreamweaver.



You can also use a free hosting site that provides templates you can use and modify.

http://www.freewebs.com/

http://www.earthlink.net/BuildYourSite

http://www.google.com/sites

There are others, like I said, Google and discover your options.



Hope this helps!
