If you want to start your own website but you don't have any idea how to begin, you've found exactly what you need.

It's easy to start your own website! How To Start A Website - For Beginners is a user-friendly guide to starting your first website. It holds your hand every step of the way through the entire process of getting a website up and running. Everything you need to know is laid out with clear step-by-step instructions. All of the instructions are illustrated so that you can see exactly what you need to do.

Absolutely no prior experience is necessary. By following the instructions in this simple guide, you can get your website working in a matter of hours.


WHAT THIS IS

This is a beginner's guide to starting a website, covering these topics:

* Basic terms that you should know with understandable definitions
* How to register domain names
* How to get website hosting
* How to create email addresses for your domain name
* How to use your email address in a program like Outlook
* How to make a very simple web page in HTML
* How to use FTP to put your web pages online
* How to get more tech support for your website
* Before you do any of that, you'll learn what all those words mean

After you follow all of the instructions in this book you will have a working website that is live on the internet.


WHAT THIS IS NOT

This book teaches you how to start a website. It does not teach you:

* How to design a website
* How to get traffic to your website
* How to sell products on your website
* How to put video or images on your website
* How to start a free website.
(You'll have your own domain and hosting. Very affordable, especially with your discounts.)

Web design is an entirely different topic. If you're truly a beginner, designing a pretty site is not what you need to do right now. The first step is to set up a website. After that you can learn web design, and this book suggests some popular software that you can use to do that.

About the Author:

Hi,
My name is Bonnie Martin. I've been doing web work for ten years. Some of the things I do on a regular basis include: web design, graphics design (website graphics, logos, book covers), SEO (search engine optimization) consulting, tech support, and general website project management.

With my background and experience, I feel very confident in telling you this: starting a website is easy. No, really -- it is. I don't say that because I've done it many times before and I'm used to the process. It really is a simple undertaking, and when you use a well-organized web host like DreamHost, it's even easier.

This guide that I've created makes the process so simple. Everything is laid out for you with step-by-step instructions. Most of the steps have an image of what you will be seeing as you follow along. The whole process is accomplished with visual aids so it's like I'm right there with you.

I know that you'll have a great time with this. Once you've gone through the process once, you'll wonder why it seemed so mysterious.

Sincerely,
Bonnie Martin
