Building Your Website

There are a few things to consider when building your own website. If you don’t know anything about web design, you will need to hire someone to build and design it the way you want it. You want to use a dependable source so you are not wasting your time and money. Choosing your domain name very wisely; make sure it is short, relevant to your site, and memorable. A popular site you where you can check what domains are available is www.whois.sc. You can see who owns a domain you maybe interested in. If the owner is not using the domain, you can offer to purchase it from them.

Choosing a very good web host is one of the most important factors in setting up and maintaining an internet company. If your website crashes, you’re now out of business. You want a web hosting company that have secure server capabilities, fast servers, lots of space, web-based administration, access to raw server logs, full email services, power and daily server backups, unrestricted CGI access, SSH and FTP access, and no minimum contracts. You should test their technical support and find out if they offer services, scripts, and software. Find out about their downtime and how long they have been in business. Make sure they are not charging you for the extra services.

When a customer visits your website, you want them to see professionalism, knowledge and fast connections. If your visitors notice ads from your free or low cost web host server on your website, they may see your site as unprofessional and small time. A web host with slow connection speeds will definitely lose customers and cost you a lot of money. Make sure you choose your web host server very carefully and you will be on your way to creating a website that will attract lots of visitors.
