How Do I Create My Website Now That I’ve Purchased My Domain Name?

Category: FAQ   Time: 2009-07-12   Tags: , , , , , ,

Okay, I’ve purchased a domain name on www.hostmonster.com, but now I’ve run into a problem. I have a lot of experience with free web site providers like Geocities and Homestead, but this is my first time with an actual .com domain name. I went online and looked up “free web templates” and found some .css files, but have no clue how to use them. Do I need some sort of web building program? Is there any that I can get for free? Can someone help a first-time REAL website builder?

    The easiest way for a novice to build a web site is to start with a web template. Web Templates can be customized and you can use the layout but swap the graphics etc…. this will get you comfortable with basic HTML design and an HTML editor (like Dreamweaver).
    Here are some resources for free or inexpensive templates that are easy to edit and manage.
    Webmaster Templates – http://www.webmaster-templates.net
    Free Web Templates – http://www.freewebtemplates.com/
    Web Design Elements – http://www.webdesign-elements.com
    Free Website Templates – http://www.freewebsitetemplates.com/
    Free Layouts – http://www.freelayouts.com/
    Free Templates Online – http://www.freetemplatesonline.com
    HTML website templates can significantly ease the burden of designing and creating websites by providing webmasters with a ready-made web layout, structure, basic graphics, and color scheme.
    The templates can generally be edited and customized with any HTML editor. The biggest advantage for webmasters using ready-made templates is the amount of time that can be saved.

    I think one of the best ways to build a website is to use wordpress. It is a free blogging software, with thousands of free templates available. It can be easily customized to be a CMS (content management system) for almost any kind of website you can imagine. It is also easy to find inexpensive developers to do customization and it is well supported.
