Getting Started

Assess Your Goals

Getting Started on the web can be as simple as placing a few personal pages online, family photos or your resume. Or you could spend more time building a hobby based site. If you are in business you must spend some time deciding why you have your site and how much you can spend to develop and maintain the site.

The key is not to feel intimidated and just go for it.

If you are building a personal home page you could easily start with a free Web hosting community service. If you have a dial-up account, you may have some web space included with your account. If you would like to create a high quality site that you can grow, it may be better for you to get a deal with a service that specializes in Web hosting.

One way to get your feet wet in business is to begin by selling through online auctions.

There are also a number of specialized services to get you up and running quickly. This is worth considering if you prefer to spend your time building your new business rather than learning code.

Build a full feature small business website thatís as good as any corporate page in just 5 minutes and for only $19.98. Itís easy too!
