Introduction.

When I started as an Internet Newbie, I found there was a lack of texts that actually instructed me how to start my own website from scratch. Sure there were texts, and sites about starting a website, but most of them left so much of the necessary information out, it made it very difficult for the genuine internet newbie to get started. So I came up with an idea, what if I wrote an E-Book, which Instructed the Internet Newbie exactly how to get started from scratch. A book that gave illustrated step by step instructions, so that other newbie’s wouldn’t have to find out the long and hard way. A set of instructions, which enables even the most basic Internet User to Get Their Very Own Web Site Online Today! So here it is, follow the steps and you will have your first website on line in just hours, for little or no costs. Enjoy, and I hope you find the book helpful and the best of luck in the future, To Your Internet Marketing Success!!

Section 1. Gathering All the Tools Required For Your Website.

I would like to get started, so I ‘am going to list out what you will need all of which, or most of which are free so we are off to a great start.

Domain Name

The first thing you will need is a domain name. It’s wise to take a moment at this stage to consider what name will best suit what business or niche you want to enter.

If you pick your own name like I did www.davidcareyonline.com you could enter any business you like. However if you would like to niche it down, let’s say you are into dog training, you could try www.trainingtipsfordogs.com for an example. What ever you decide you will need to buy your domain to get started.

There are lots of domain registrars, and it does not matter where in the world that business is based. I recommend www.hostgator.com or www.bluehost.com , particularly Blue Host as they have an on-line chat facility. What this means is if you get stuck or have any problems, you just type your problem into the online chat area, and help is there in an instant. Take a good look at the different companies, and what they are offering and what you can afford to get started, but try not to get stuck on the technical side of it just yet.

Web Hosting.

After you have picked a domain name, you will need web hosting. Every single website needs hosting, the price of web hosting varies from company to company but it’s normally between 6 and 15 $ per month.

This is a crucial part in creating a website as it will host your domain name / website name and park it until such time as you need to launch your website to the World Wide Web.

Sometimes domain registrars will offer you web hosting. You do not have to get web hosting where you purchase your domain, but as a rule it is much easier to keep track of everything. As I said I always recommend www.bluehost.com as the help if required, is second to none.

NB*Make sure that you put your hosting details in a safe place, as you will need them when we get to the FTP part of the book.

Web Editors

There are thousands of different web editors. This is the piece of software, which we will be using to design our site. Some of the most popular are Dreamweaver or FrontPage, it can be quite expensive when you’re only starting out, and so for the purpose of this Book I will be downloading Kompozer.

So go to kompozer.net and download kompozer. When you enter the site you will see this.
