In order to make money from home, you are going to need a website. When you are first learning how to make a website, it can seen like a daunting task. There are some skills which you have to learn first. The good news however, is that the Internet is one massive opportunity. You have to agree the World Wide Web is the most incredible invention we will probably ever witness in our lifetime. I am sure you already know of the enormous incomes that the web has provided for some.

 

The first thing you need to do to make a website is get a domain name. This will be the name you give your website. There are many company's that will register your domain I would use some of the more reputable ones they are also called registrars so just Google registrars and you will find many to choose from. Some examples would be go daddy and name cheap to name a couple.

 

The second step in making a website is to choose a web host. What is a hosting company? A hosting company is the place you are going to connect to the world wide web. It's where you are going to actually place all your files to your website. Hosting will vary in cost usually around five to ten dollars, depending on the package that you get. I would do a little shopping for a good hosting company again just utilize the search engines to locate hosting companies, and you will have many to choose from.

 

Once you sign up they will send you a email containing all the details you need to begin. I would not loose this email because it is vital to your success. Congratulations , you have your domain name and you hosting company what next?

 

You are now ready to actually design your first website. To make an internet site. you actually design your web pages on your computer you are using now. To style a web site page you require what is called a web editor. This is the piece of software that converts text and content into computer language that a hosting company will understand. There are lots of different web editors. Text editors range in price from free to several hundred dollars. I use a free version and it does very well for myself called Kompozer just go to the website and download it for free. The software comes in zip form so just unzip it and install on your desktop. Upon having installed the software double click the icon and the program will start. I'd suggest you fully familiarize the program by clicking the various icons.

 

Here is really a tip for you. I would create a file on your desktop to keep all your files in so you have them in all the same place so they don't get lost in your computer, you can waste a good amount of time looking for pages you created. To make a folder on your desktop you right click your mouse then go to new and finally folder. You may name this folder whatever you want but I would call it something related to the website you will design.

 

One important element which I think I should mention is the mindset. I would not try and learn everything in one day. Take one step at a time. Learning something more challenging is a process and when you want to generate a website there are skills you have to master to construct a good foundation on. Once you create your website, it is yours. Then you can discover new and exciting ways to make money from home with your website.
