Creating a Website
Question- how to create a website?send me the basic details so that i can make my own
site with your help.
Answer-I cover the basic requirements inStarting a Website. You should also take a look at the
course.
I will be doing a series of case studies were I will go through the process of creating a few example
business sites from scratch and they will appear in the newsletter.
Keywords
Question-what are keywords?
Answer- Keywords are the words used by searchers at the search engines. If you think of how you go about finding something on the Internet what is the first step? For many they go to Google and type in a search query. The words that make up this query are the Keywords. e.g. if I was looking for a cement mixer I would go to Google and type
- Cement mixer
- Petrol Cement mixer
- Electric Cement mixer
- 100l Cement mixer
- second hand Cement
mixer - etc
All these are keywords. By knowing what keywords searchers are using you can tailor your PPC (pay per
click) campaigns and optimise your web pages and website.
Domain Names
Question-why to register a domain name? and where to register a domain name?
Answer-If you want your own website or email address then you need to get a domain name. The domain name is your online identity.
You can of course use someone else’s domain name. Google, Yahoo and MSN all provide free email services and you get to use their domain name as part of your email address. So you have an email address of
:myemailaddress@gmail.com.
The problem is it isn’t yours and if Google decide to charge for it in the future or they might just stop doing it all together.
If this sounds alarmist you may have heard of geocities. This was a free hosting service bought by
Yahoo for $3.6bilion back in 1999 and used by millions to host personal and business sites all using the Geocities Domain name and guess what they are closing!
So all those sites are going to have to move and all of the links pointing to those sites will becomeĀ worthless.
To Register a domain name I recommend you use your hosting provider and I use Blue Host and
One and One-UK depending on my target audience.
