How to Make Your Own Website

You don't have to be website designer to make your own website, but if you don't have experience in web design, it's definitely a good idea to have a professional do the job.

In the late 90's people were making their own websites by hand or with software that didn't include any level of best practices. The result: incompatible code, unfixable programming errors and of course......big gaudy embossed button navigation; which by the way, you can still see on many GeoCities.com websites. If you're interested in seeing the look of websites made by beginners ten years ago, simply visit Archive.org and type in the address to a website you know has been around for awhile into the "Way Back Machine."

We have our own SEO Expert, so the Analyze Layer for how to make your own website is covered.

When we optimize your website, we're doing so with award-winning design, search engine-friendly pages, and user-friendly navigation. Most website designers make pretty sites that don't include these SEO best practices, or the opposite, they make great SEO-based websites with poor quality design. We are unique in that we offer both.

Development can make or break your website. Good development provides tools and resources to the user and to the Googlebot webcrawler. These development tools make your site stand out from the rest and provide for a level of website stickiness your competitors will envy you for. A few development tools you'll want to consider when or if you make your own website include:

• A Webblog (blog) for content syndication
• An automated Link Exchange directory for search engine popularity
• A custom-built analytical tool for your clients to run reports on
• A commerce or cart application to convert customers online
• Automated XML updates that feed search engines every page on your website

To promote your website, we provide a variety of options and will work with your budget to insure that you're getting the most bang for your buck. Stop submitting your ad on Craig's List every day. Trust us, you can do better and we can help! Consider sending out newsletters, purchasing banner ad impressions (CPM), hiring a Pay-Per-Click Manager (like us), and doing some offline promotion to drive improved traffic and conversions. Allow us to manage your website promotion strategy, so you can focus on doing what you do best: running your business.

Making your own website by yourself is like deciding to have a pro basketball player represent you in an academic decathlon. Wouldn't you rather have someone who has already won several? Call us today to see what we can do to help you build and promote your website. Call today!
