How to get a free website

There are many reasons for wanting your own website - self-expression, promoting something you love, providing a service or just making money are some of them. These days it's quite easy to set up a website with no money and no technical skills. If you can use basic office-type software like a word processor or PowerPoint then you'll have no problem setting up a good looking, functional website. Write your content off line and then just cut and paste, drag and drop using the site builder software provided by the hosting service.

If you just want an article or blogging site then Google blogger or Wordpress provide excellent platforms for your material, including pictures, links etc. A full website requires a host and a domain name.Weebly and Yolaprovide just such a service completely free.

That's the easy bit over. The real challenge is not to create a website but to get it noticed.

Your shiny new website is just one of millions and it's at the back of the queue on all the search engines, if on them at all. SEO - or search engine optimisation is the buzzword for all webmasters these days and books, sites, courses and seminars are devoted to the subject. Unless your content is completely original occupying a brand new but demanded niche then the only way to get noticed by Google is to have links to your site on lots of other web pages. Your social networking sites provide the first place to provide links to your site but thereafter you'll have to work hard to place links in strategic places that will pick up traffic from other sites. Website directories will list your site and a description of its content. Article sites like this one will allow a certain amount of back-linking and you can link directly to your site from forum entries and book reviews. If your site has a large photo content you can put your albums on a site like Flickr or photo bucket with links back to the home site. Offline, your printer, scanner and a little imagination can produce a cheap new-website-alert campaign in your locality and many other techniques exist for the more technical and cunning webmaster, but for now see how you go and remember the most important ingredient for website success is and always will be GOOD CONTENT!
