Choose a Good Title

These might seem unimportant to most people but this is the first thing that your human visitors as well as search engines look for. Write a short sentence for your title. Having one or two words really doesn’t tell much about your website. If you are stuck about thinking for a good title, go to Google Keywords. It is a free tool to use. Choosing a high traffic phrase for your title can mean more visitors to your website. Alternatively, take some time to think of a good title for your website.

Research on Your Website Topic

Taking some time to research on your website topic can work wonders for you in the long run. Be sure about what you want to write about. This is especially important when you have a blog on your website. You need to decide what your blog or website is about. If your website is about weight loss, make sure you know enough about weight loss before building a website. Doing some reading about weight loss reading weight loss blogs are some examples you can do before adding content to your website. Mind you, do not plagiarize!

Keyword Research

You might have heard this before but keyword research must not be underestimated this days. Having good keywords in our website can help promote traffic and boost your search engine rankings. Building a website using non specific keywords may be alright for you and your human visitors but not to search engines. Search engines are constantly looking for new content based on specific keywords. Again using the Google keyword tool can help you decide which are good high traffic keywords.

Monetize Your Website

I am sure you must have heard of this. Monetizing your website basically means making money with your website. One way is to join an affiliate program. An affiliate program basically means you earn a commission for each product you sell for others. The best and easiest place to start choosing products as an affiliate is Clickbank. You can also monetize your website by adding Google Adsense to your website. Google Adsense helps you earn when someone clicks on a Google sponsored link located on your website.

Drive traffic to your website

I have explained certain things about driving traffic to your website above but there is a lot more to driving traffic than it can be explained in this entire article. To make this as brief as possible, I’m not going to discuss the details of driving traffic. Some simple things you can do is to write articles and submit them to article directories, participate in blog discussions and forums and leave your links or forum signatures there. Join social networking programs and add links or content that lead back to your website. Pay-per-click advertising is also another excellent way to drive traffic.

Conclusion

Most websites don’t get traffic and don’t earn any money unless done in the right way. If you were to follow the simple instructions noted above, you are on your way to building a website that works for you.

Wishing You Success,

By now you should have the hang of adding pictures and editing text in the existing text boxes. You should also know how to add new pages to the site by adding them to the menu (see previous tutorial). Now let’s look at adding extra elements to a page and adding pages without them appearing in the menu – it’s the next step to help you create your own website using Webeden. Lets do it – here’s 10 steps to adding extra elements to your pages

Step 1

Click on Files to open the File Manager and then select the Library tab and click on Animations / Handwritten. Click on “Circle it” and select Use this. The animation will be added to the page. By default, the line drawn is white. Select the animation object and in the Editor dialog click on the Style tab and change the colour to black. You can also resize and rotate the animation on the Info tab (see previous page). Position the circle over the top of an area of the page that you want to draw attention to, like a picture.

Step 2

Now add the arrow from the Handwritten section in the same way. Use the Rotate feature on the Info tab to enable freehand rotation using the object’s handles. When you add a page to your site, you can choose from a list of different page types. There are different templates readily available so you don’t have to design a complicated page from the ground up, which makes for a handy shortcut when you’re website building. For example, the blog/news page will create a ready made weblog for you, together with an integrated editor to allow you to add items.

Step 3

You can also add links only, so a button appears in the menu, but no page is created (the opposite of adding a page, but not having it visible). There’s even an image gallery – one tip with images you upload is to ensure the dimensions aren’t larger than you need to keep download times down, somthing you should take not of when you create your own website.

Step 4

Now click on Insert and select Button Link. This will add a bevelled image to the page. Move it to within the left column. Click on the Link tab in the Editor dialog and enter the URL you want to link to, like http://www.webeden.co.uk/. Click on Apply and you’ll see that the text on the button changes also. Click on the Style tab and you can now change the text on the button. Do it in this order, as changing the link will overwrite the text.

Step 5

The next step on your website building fast track is to click on the More arrow in the Editor dialog (top right) and select Body Text Box (you can hover over each icon to get a tooltip). Drag the text box to the left column, underneath the button we just inserted. Use the handles at the corners and bottom of the text frame to resize it to fit within the column. Now select the Style tab and click on the Background button to enable a background for the text frame, and select a colour from the drop down menu to the right, and do the same for the border.

Step 6

An alterative when you make your own website to using the text frame’s background and border is to add a background frame, such as a shape with bevelled edges from the Library, and then add a text box on top, which will show the frame beneath it through it.

Step 7

Now go to Insert / New page and click on the Add new page button; just make it a blank page. Label the page “Chat” and then disable the radio button in the Page visible column. This will add the page to the site without it being added into your automatically generated menu. We will add a link to this new page within the master page, but to do this, you must create the page first as you cannot add a link to a non-existent page, even if you know what you are going to call it. You can still access the page to edit it from the Pages menu – a perfect website building tip.

Step 8

On the new page, double click in the title text box to edit the text and change it to “Chat to other user online” and then single click on the main text box and click on the Delete icon.

Step 9

Now click on the Files button to bring up the File Manager and from the library, select Functional and add the Chat object to the page. Close the File Manager and then resize the chat object to fill the content element of the page underneath the headline. Click on Design / Page master and remember to save the page when it asks you. Always remember this if you want to quickly build your own website!

Step 10

Add a new button link and drag it to the top right of the page, above the date. With the button selected, choose the Link tab in the Editor and select the Pages icon (it looks like horizontal lines). This allows you to link to a page on your site. Select Chat from the drop down menu and click Apply. As before the button’s text will change.

Step 11

In the Style tab change the button text to “Chat to other users”. Click on Save and Exit.

Step 12

Change to the View my site, so you can see the site as a user, rather than editing it, and you will see that we have added a fully featured chat feature to our site, all within the space of a few clicks. What an amazing what to create a website that looks professional and advanced.

Expert tip

When you add a page to WebEden, you can choose from a list of different page types. There are different templates readily available so you don’t have to design a complicated page from the ground up. For example, the blog/news page will create a ready made weblog for you, together with an integrated editor to allow you to add items. You can also add links only, so a button appears in the menu, but no page is created (the opposite of adding a pgae, but not having it visible, as we did in Step 3). There’s even an image gallery – one tip with images you upload is to ensure the dimensions aren’t larger than you need to keep download times down.

That’s all for now

Check in for part 4 to find out how to add some really cool stuff to make sure that you can build a website, and it’s the best one possible!

It is a fact that people trying to make a living online must have a website or many websites and while those who are already making large amounts of money will simply hire a programmer to build their sites; this can be quite expensive for somebody just starting out. Fortunately there are alternatives to hiring a programmer such as website building software and programs. Some of the options available are computer based software, web based software, and website building programs. It is the goal of this article to examine the pros and cons of each method and help you decide what will work for you for your particular needs.

One of the easiest and fastest ways to get your website setup is to use an online software service and this option offers a lot to somebody just starting out. Most of these sites are plug in play where you simply enter your information, select a theme, and the site will automatically build your software for you. Some benefits to this type of service include a site that is SEO optimized, no need for maintaining your site on your computer, and some programs will even offer hosting for you. Some sites that include this service are Website Wizard, HyperVRE, and Daves Cool Little Website builder. Some problems associated with this type of program are that you have limited control over your site and normally have to pay a monthly fee to keep your site up and running.

If you wish to maintain more control of your website and avoid monthly billing to keep it active then website building software that you download to your computer may be a better option for you. These types of software programs range from free for programs such as Nvu for html sites and PSPad for php sites up to expensive for programs such as Dreamweaver and FrontPage and the control of your website and ease of use also varies with the program you choose. Some positive aspects of this option is that you are not depending on another company to build your website so you can make it look unique and add any content you wish. In addition to what is listed above, several more software packages available are XSitePro and SFI Website Builder.

Another type of website builder is programs that offer specific websites that you join and promote for them. When you make money they also make money. There are many of these types of programs so it is impossible to explain how each one works but the general theory is where you join a site, they build a website for you optimized to sell there product or products, and you receive a commission. While this may be an ideal option for somebody wishing to do affiliate marketing or AdSense revenue, you normally have little or no control over your site and it will be a virtual clone of many sites already online. Some examples of this type of site are AdSense Ready Empire, Instant AdSense Empire, SFI, Empowerism, and Stone Evans PlugNProfit program. There are many more programs such as this available as well.

As seen by this article there are many options available for building your websites in addition to hiring a programmer. What option you choose will depend on what kind of online presence your desire and where you want to take your business in the future. Many successful internet marketers choose to build income from multiple sources so you may wish to experiment with several of the above options.
