Build Your Own Web Site

Welcome to this brief guide. We'll tell you how to build your own web site and cover a few other basic aspects of web site building.

To build a web site, you first need to plan how you want your site to look. Making a simple site map on paper can help you organize your thoughts as you prepare to build your own site. Where will your menus go? How many submenus will you have? Where will you place your links? What colors, fonts, images and other features will you use? Asking these questions now will help you build your site more quickly when it comes time to do so. Imagine building a house without floor plans to work from, and you'll readily see why it's so important to plan before you build a site.

Now that you've settled your planning, you are ready to rent a space on the Web and build your website. Some Web hosts offer free space, while others make you pay. Some offer only a few basic features (typically the free ones), while others throw all kinds of bells and whistles at you (usually for fees). Shop around by looking at several Web space providers before you choose the one that fits your needs best.
