How to Create a Web Site: A Beginners Guide to Web Site Design

Hello and thank you for visiting Web-Source.net.

My name is Shelley Lowery and I am the owner and developer of Web-Source.net.

If you want to create your own web site on the Internet, but have no idea where to start, this article will provide you with the exact information you'll need to get started, including what you can expect to pay to get your website up and running. However, before I begin, I'd like to tell you a little bit about myself, and how I got started, so you'll know who you're dealing with.

When I started online back in 1997, I was completely overwhelmed with the Internet and had absolutely no idea where to start. I knew that I desperately wanted my own Internet business, which would require me to build my own web site, but I was very low on cash and there wasn't much information available to assist me at that time. For this reason, I knew I would have to do everything myself, which included learning how to design my own website.

I spent countless hours online researching and learning everything I could about the Internet. I went to web sites that I admired and looked at the source code (HTML code that is used to create a web page) so that I could see exactly how that site was made.

The first time I looked at all that HTML code I was completely overwhelmed. I began to feel a bit discouraged thinking maybe I was trying to take on a bit more than I could handle. However, when I began to really look closely at the coding, I began to see how things worked. It really wasn't as difficult as I thought. And the more I looked at the code and began testing different things, the more confident I became. I realized that website design really wasn't hard at all! At that time, I knew I could create a web site.

Is Search Engine Optimization Dead?

By Ken Evoy, CEO SiteSell Copyright © 2007

I Hate To Say, "I Told You So," But... Ken's Blog Way back in Oct, 2005, I shared The Tao of CTPM with the LED Digest mailing list, a list that I subscribe to and still enjoy. I elaborated in that post about why I thought Search Engine Optimization (SEO) was doomed. Sure enough, Google has become a whole lot smarter, which means much less manipulatable. All the predictions are happening and will continue to intensify.

A trickle of support has grown into a torrent of consensus that SEO is indeed on its last legs. The term "SEO" is being redefined away from "the almighty algorithm" and SEOers are either... " understanding the sea change that is indeed happening (recent example " sticking to their SEO guns (their days are numbered) " pretending that they always knew "content was king" all along (of the prominent ones, only Jill Whalen can truly claim that position, but I have seen several detractors changing their message to "content is king") " redefining themselves as "SEM" ("Search Engine Marketing").

The Purpose and Practice of Writing Successful SEO Articles

By Karon Thackston

I was so excited to read his post! Google-icon Matt Cutts was blogging on August 21st and hit the nail on the head (as he does quite frequently). The title of the post was, "SEO Advice: Writing useful articles that readers will love." That, in and of itself, says it all. Why is this such a thrilling post? Because it reinforces what I've been saying for years. Whether you're writing content for a website, an article or any type of SEO copy, you must think of the reader first.

There is such a barrage of worthless articles floating around the 'Net these days. Keyword stuffed, useless ramble that was obviously written with the sole intent of attempting to rank high. Striving for top rankings is not a bad thing, but the purpose of writing SEO articles is threefold not onefold: provide information, rank high when used on your site and increase link popularity. That means the practice must follow the purpose.

Why Write an Article?

Let's start at the beginning. Why write articles to begin with? While having SEO content on your site is a good thing, your first concern should be with offering useful information to your readers. Cutts agrees with this practice and makes a point to discuss why providing relevant, helpful information is vital.

If the information isn't helpful, those who visit your site will have little interest in reading it. Yes, if the page ranks highly, it might bring in a bit of traffic. But if visitors take one look at your article then click away, what good have the high rankings done you?

Why You Should Care About Web Site Accessibility

By Laura Legendary Copyright © 2009

During a recent educational seminar conducted by a friend and business leader, the dialogue turned to the importance of web site accessibility. Incredulous, a seminar attendee inquired, “Why in the world would a blind person need a computer?” In the equally incredulous and reproachful commentary that followed, it occurred to me that there are probably a great many otherwise very bright and capable individuals who wonder the same thing. If you have never been exposed to someone who is blind and who makes efficient use of assistive technology to accomplish tasks, then how would you have the slightest idea what is possible? A few short minutes with a search engine can reveal a universe you might not have known existed. Sometimes, the truth is that we must admit that we don’t even know what we don’t know.

If you are a business owner, you might agree that the most rudimentary business model would be to sell as much as you can to as many as you can. With that in mind, it would make little sense to prohibit the entire population of Michigan, Minnesota, Montana and Missouri from patronizing your business. Yet, that is analogous to what would happen if you overlook the benefits of making your web site accessible to people who have vision loss.
