I recently was approached by a friend of a friend to produce them a modelling website.  I said yes.\n\nWhat i didn't tell them was i had never done a web-page before!!  Well I downloaded a program called coffeecup that gives you fairly clean code (compared to Frontpage), and used its visual editor to start.  I then looked at the code it had produced to see what was going on.  After also looking up different HTML tags and how to do tables and such, it was much easier and i was now able to write HTML without using the visual editor.\n\nI then had to tackle PHP to do a few bits.  I used these websites to get what i wanted.\n\nhttp://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/index.phtml/fid/51\nhttp://www.zend.com/php/index.php\nhttp://www.devtek.org/tutorials/image_gallery.php\nhttp://www.webdeveloper.com/\n\nAnyway i went from knowing nothing to producing a website, with changing images, a web based contact form and a shopping cart (short list) in about 2 weeks of on and off looking at it after work.\n\nIt is more than possible to learn to do web design in short amounts of time.  Obviously for more complex features it just takes longer, but i have found all information available on the web that i need.  Certainly no need for a 10,000 course.  Also simply look at the source for websites to see what others are doing.\n\nGet a project to work on, research the web and do it!\n\nGood luck and enjoy.\n\nFor my small triumph, visit http://www.seenmodels.com

from a graphic designers perspective....the layout is not good. it does not flow well. your eye does not know where to look. a design or a web page needs to have structure. don't get me wrong, the page is somewhat appealing but it needs help.\n\nat first glance i don't even know what the site is. if i were to happen accross it i would move quickly past it and i would not re-visit it. to fix this problem the site designer needs to ad some balance. there is too much going on.

You could go far beyond that with relatively little effort. \n\nMy own Web host has a great program. It's advertised as being for small businesses, but many non-profits use it to good effect.  The biggest strength is the way it guides you to drive traffic to your site. The biggest problem of being on the Web is having people find you if they don't already have your URL. If that's even remotely interesting to you, be sure to check out the URL below. (They even have a feature where you can speak by phone to someone who will answer your specific questions. You can get to them through the second URL below.\n\nMy own site is at http://www.writershelper.com

you will need following:\n\n1. Domain Name\n2. Web Space\n3. Web Designer to design the site content (static pages)\n4. Web Programmer (for dynamic pages)

The first page, eh? From what I've seen and experienced, the first page is unique to the person who made it, reflecting their style and personal technique. I use "Perfect Website Creator" to make my own sites, but I've never published any.\n\nInclude whatever you want, such as music, pictures, even movie files you want to display! If you want feedback on your site, put in a link to send you an e-mail, or a guestbook page for people to write in. You can use Javascript, Java applications, and other things like those, but they have to be programmed into the page, and in secondary files (which can take a lot of your valuable time). If yo want to start basic, just add a picture, a music file, and maybe a few links. Sound good?

The first thing you need is a host. A host is the person that will hold your website for you, and put it online so that others can view it.\n\nIf this is your first website, there are some easy, free hosts out there. Geocities (geocities.yahoo.com) offers a free website if you don't mind some ads on it. Others include Freeservers.com or www.thefreesite.com\n\n-------------------\n\nNext, you need some way of making your website. Usually this involves HTML, but if you don't know any then find a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor. That is, an editor that will allow you to edit colors and type and see exactly how the website will look. Geocities includes this on their site, so I'd recommend you start with them.\n\nIf you're interested in really making a good website, I would recommend trying to learn HTML. If you go to Google and type in 'HTML tutorial' you'll find a plethora of good sites out there.\n\nHope this helped you.

The main disadvantage would be in case the pictures got into the wrong hands. Alot of strange people out there. If used carefully I would say there are more advantages.

Internet Promotion - Advantages and Disadvantages\n\n\n\nThe emergence of globalise trade, increase in foreign investment and cross-border transactions have put many small businesses under pressure to find innovative ways to continue to market their products and services. This is especially difficult given that they often operate on tight marketing budgets.\n\nIn the quest for cheap marketing alternatives, these small businesses continue to use conventional marketing tools such as newspaper, magazine, radio and television advertisements, unaware of the advantages that Internet Promotion offers. All too often, these entrepreneurs focus on the disadvantages of Internet Promotion and fail to adequately take advantage of the opportunities that it presents. Moreover, their preoccupation with conventional marketing strategies is driven by a misconception that these are cheaper than Internet Promotion.\n\nTo most small business entrepreneurs, marketing or promoting their products or services via the Internet can be a daunting task. However, with adequate information small businesses can benefit significantly from Internet Promotion while minimising the disadvantages that it presents. In fact, it may prove to be the marketing strategy that generates the highest return on investment.\n\nThe Advantages\n\nCost Effective and Enduring Marketing Strategies\n\nThe Internet has become the information superhighway for the buying public. Most persons prefer the hassle free transactions that Internet shopping can offer. As a result, the Internet has become the most powerful selling tool. Internet Promotion offers cost effective ways for small businesses to enhance their product or service distribution networks. For example, the use of portals can help create new marketing channels and logistics, or provide better or faster product access for customers.\n\nIn comparison to other forms of marketing, Internet Promotion presents the advantage of reduced budget and storage costs, when compared with printing brochures, producing television or radio advertisements or managing a call centre. It presents a fast and cost effective option for penetrating new markets.\n\nMarket Penetration\n\nWith millions of person using the Internet to search for products and services, small businesses can penetrate other markets at a fraction of the cost of traditional marketing methods.\n\nWebsites act as virtual storefronts, allowing businesses to stay open 24/7. Internet Promotion gives a business greater visibility, thereby creating more opportunities for increasing its customers at relatively low cost. Never before has it been easier for an upstart business to be able to reach out to literally millions of potential customers and to position themselves for success, without the need for costly infrastructure and overwhelming marketing costs. Thanks to the Internet, new businesses can become popular almost overnight.\n\nLow Cost, Instant Communication\n\nEmail makes business communications instant, whether the customer or business affiliate is across the street or across the globe. It makes it easier for customers to maintain contact and readily facilitates repeat purchasing. An effective online strategy can therefore turn a small web business into a virtual cost saver and income-generating machine. The net result is that the small business can gain significant competitive advantage in a given market.\n\nMany online businesses have therefore resorted to the use of ezines, blogs, pop-up ads and other online marketing tools to let customers know about new products or services as well as provide information relevant to their respective industry. The benefits of this strategy are two fold. Marketers can effectively heighten brand awareness for relatively new products on the market whilst strengthening customer relationships, with shorter time frames.\n\nContent is Timeless\n\nInternet Promotion also provides the advantage of being enduring.

I don't really see a problem other than some of the websites are way to much detail....The kids should be out doing something more productive than trying to make their website look the best.

Too many fonts.\nFonts are hard to read.\nToo cluttered.\nFixed width pages are annoying even Yahoo Answers does it.\nColors clash horribly.\n\nBut dont let that discourage you from trying again.\n\nTry making a page where you dont modify the font and you use only one image.

Website design process has got two phases.1)Design a website 2) Using some activity with this already designed website.\nFor designing website you should ask yourself, what are you going to do with this website? Is it only a communication medium or should that be a marketing tool to bring business? Accordingly you will have different approach.\n\nFor designing a simple website, you need to know how to use html, or you should have any of the website development tools like microsoft front office or dreamweaver etc. Then design a website. Secondly you need to register a unique domain name representing your business. The name is like your phone number once selected you dont want to change it often. It should be simple and possibly short so that laymen will not make spelling mistakes while typing it in the browser's address bar. Also, if this name reapresents the 'business' you are going to do, then it is better. It should be easy to remember.\nThirdly you need some server space with good security and proper server maintenance. \n\nIf you open any website and click on the "view-source" command  you can see the actual code used inside. This will give you an idea how a website is coded. Please dont violate copyright laws.Or you can buy some already developed templates (eg: http://www.ourwebsitedemos.com  .) and modify it. If you are good in learning, hard code one.Remember, it is better to use html code as search engines do not recognize graphics etc much. One more simple technique I can tell you: create a jpeg page using photoshop.. There is an option under file-save as command which will help you to save as a webpage. But it is better you learn the web designing using a guide book or even better under a tutor. You may search online and find free tutorials.\nAsk the assistance of the server company to upload the pages first time.\n\nOnce you decide the website you should promote that to bring traffic to it.\n1) you can tell all yoru friends 2) You may print and publish in your busienss cards 3) Publish in the forums 4) post ads in the free classified pages etc with the URL. 5) Do an email campaign without spamming. 6)Most importantly do Search Engine Optimization.\nFor doing search Engine Optimization (SEO), you should find out the actual keyword people use to find your or similar business online. There are tools available, but you should have a good logic also. Then you should plant these keywords inside your website pages preferably at the top of the html codes, as part of the meaningful sentences. Never plant only keywords. Build cross links to your page by sending requests to webmasters of other similar websites and also list other websites of same categories in your website. \nRead and observe everyday. Every day search engines are becoming more and more sophisticated. Only if your website improve the quality, it will be visited bye people.

You can do it two ways:\n\n1. Do it yourself - get a domain name, you create a webpage, choose a webhost, get an online merchant account, get an online processing gateway to accept credit cards payment, find and install a shopping cart, take pictures of your products and write sales copy, get an SSL certificate from Verisign or Thawte for secure processing, integrate shipping tracking information from UPS or DHL. \n\nIf you do it by yourself, you'll have the flexibility to choose the best element for you with the features you need. The disadvantage is that you have to do it yourself and if you do not have the skills to setup the applications such as shopping cart, then it can be quite a challenge.\n\n2. Get a complete package - example is Yahoo store where they basically provide you with everything an online store needs (from web hosting to online processing to order management systems to shopping carts). All you need to provide are your web pages (sales copy and products), merchant account and the monthly fees.\n\nThe disadvantage is you are limited to whatever features they offer and customization options are almost nil.
