"If you build it, they will come" is not necessarily true on the Web. Putting a website up is one thing, but getting visitors to come to your site is another. The process becomes even more difficult if you have limited resources to market your business.\n\nOne of the most important element in online marketing is getting links. You need to know how to get as many links to your site as possible - and possibly targeting those sites that could bring in links. Even search engines such as Google focuses on the quality of links your site gets. \n\nHere are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible: \n\n1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement - if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.\n\n2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important -- and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more - that's additional traffic that you get for FREE!\n\n3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.\n\nIf you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com's "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm \n\n4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News. My website (see my profile) accepts free press release submission (no strings attached!)\n\n5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings. You can find the list of article directories in a question I previously answered  http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=Ag4ZD.gwre0wDHJogOUynAQjzKIX?qid=1006022407481\n\n6. Improve your conversion. Getting visitors is one thing; getting them to buy your products is a whole different story. Read the article "10 Ways to Convert Visitors to Buyers" http://www.powerhomebiz.com/072005/conversion.htm for tips on how to improve your conversion rates.

anyone can create a website. Depending on how much time you have to devote to the website, will depend on how ascetically pleasing to the eye the web site is. \nUnless you are using a program such as front page, you will have to have a knowledge of at least HTML, if you don't have this knowledge, there are several good websites available to help you.  One such website is http://www.htmlgoodies.com.   You can start there with the html tutorials and proceed from there. \nAs far as hosting the web site, personal opinion would be to develop the site, before pricing the hosting plan.  Depending on how long it actually takes you to create the site and then what design elements you have chosen to incorporate will make choosing the hosting plan easier. Please let us know how it goes.

The options for setting up a website are as varied as the options for choosing a car. Choose what you think your needs are from the left-hand column and follow the instructions in that row. \n\nWho You Are  What You'll Need to Invest  Do This  Don't Do This  \nI'm a student and need to be able to put my class projects on a website. \n\nI just want to set up a personal site with a few photos and some generic information. \n\nI'm campaigning for public office and don't want to spend any money on the Internet, but someone told me I need a website. \n\nThere's no way I'm going to spend anything on building a website, but I'm sure I need one.  Free websites are available everywhere. You'll need to spend at least half an hour to set up what you want, but you don't need any special skills. Your only investment is time.  Go to Geocities or Angelfire and follow their very simple step-by-step instructions for setting up a website. If you can follow directions, you can put up a website with one of these services. There are plenty of others available, but these two are the best-known. \n\nWhen you're done, be sure to add the address of your website to the signature line on your e-mail. If you have business stationery or other printed literature, put it there as well. It's just about the only way anyone will find your site. \n\nIf you know anyone with a website, ask them nicely if they would mind giving you a link. Unless some other site links to yours, the search engines will never find it. \n\nExpect to grow annoyed with the ads on your site. Free web hosts use pop-up ads, pop-under ads, and banners built-in to your pages in order to pay for their services. If you're not bothered, don't worry about them. Most users eventually grow tired of them.  Don't expect a lot of visitors. Your address will be long and hard to remember, so unless someone is really intent on finding your site, not many folks will visit. \n\nDon't expect to be taken very seriously. If you aren't willing to put any money into your site, don't expect visitors to think you're an authority. \n\nDon't get caught up in design. There's not much you can do to make your free site look great. Just put the basic information up and see whether it does the trick for you. Crazy backgrounds, wild color schemes, lots of pictures, and sounds that play whenever people visit your site will only serve to irritate. Keep it simple. \n\nDon't forget to add content. Since your page probably doesn't look very special, be sure to add things to it often enough that it serves a real purpose. \n\nDon't put your e-mail address on the page. Anywhere. If you do, you'll get so much spam you'll never forgive yourself.  \nWho You Are  What You'll Need to Invest  Do This  Don't Do This  \nI have a lot to say, and I want to blog.  As little as nothing. Some fees may apply, especially as you become more sophisticated. Expect it to become a regular consumer of your time.  Go to Blogger or TypePad or LiveJournal and follow their instructions. \n\nHave something interesting to say, and often. Keep your site fresh. Political campaigns and businesses are starting to realize the power of fresh information posted to people who actively want to follow what's happening directly from the source. \n\nYou may eventually decide to go solo and run your personal site without someone else's software or hosting. When that time comes, use PairNIC to register your domain and Pair Networks to host your site. Their prices are excellent and so is their service.  Don't expect it to be easy. Well-done blogs often absorb lots of their authors' time. \n\nDon't post so often that you create unreasonable expectations. Sandbag a little until you're comfortable with the amount of time you dedicate to your blog. \n\nDon't divulge personal secrets, proprietary information, or national secrets. Serio

If you are interested in something more, but still fairly simple try GeoCities or Yahoo.\n\nIf you are willing to learn HTML I would suggest ATSPACE.COM. You can create a website for FREE up to 50MBs in size. I have two websites through them and the uptime is great. NO ADS, NO BANNERS. You'll need an ftp program to upload your stuff. There's a good free one for personal use called "FTP Explorer". Of course you'll either need to learn HTML or use one of the WYSIWYG programs like FrontPage or DreamWeaver to actually design your site. e-mail me if you need some help...\n\nIf you want your own domain and have it hosted, I suggest ReadyHosting. You get 1GB of space unlimted e-mail accounts, FTP access and domain name registration all for $99 a year.\n\nWeb hosting site (FREE):\nhttp://www.atspace.com\nWeb hosting site (COST):\nhttp://www.readyhosting.com\nFTP Explorer site:\nhttp://www.ftpx.com\n\nA couple of my websites:\nPioneer Baseball Website (ReadyHosting - Cost)\nhttp://www.pioneerbaseball.org\nMy Son's Travel Team's Website (ATSpace.com - FREE)\nhttp://tricountytitans.atspace\nFamily Website (ATSpace.com - FREE)\nhttp://tim8w.atspace.com

Geocities is a good option to start with. Its simple to sign up and manage your files. If you have Frontpage express, you don't even need basic HTML knowledge. That's what I did to make my site.\n\nGeocities page...\n\nhttp://www.geocities.com\n\nYou can have Frontpage from here...\n\nhttp://www.np.edu.sg/~bms/help/frontpage_exp_zipped.exe\n\nIn frontpage, you just need to type, or add pictures, backgrounds etc with just a click of a button. The HTML automatically builds up in the background. If you want, you can edit it too. Then you need to upload all files you have used for your Web pages, and also upload the HTML files to you File Manager. And your site is ready !\n\nGeocities allows only 15 MB per ID (you actually have to sign in with your Yahoo ID there). You migh say that 15 MB is less. But there's a solution. You can have your main Index page of your site on your main ID and make some more Yahoo IDs and for linking music files, videos etc (because they normally take up more space). But Geocities still has one more problem that the maximum size of a file you can upload is 5 MB.\n\nIf you have big files to upload, Megaupload is a good option for you. You can send files of a size of up to 250 MB to anybody (For FREE). When the file is uploaded, it gives you a link, which you can note down and put up on your site for the big files !\n\nIf you don't want Geocities, here are some more options you might want to try...\n\nhttp://www.bravenet.com\nhttp://www.angelfire.com\nhttp://www.homestead.com\nhttp://www.50megs.com\nhttp://www.250x.com (It offers a space of 250 MB)\n\nYou might also want to check out my site, which I have made without the use of ANY HTML knowledge. Its simple and what's more, I didn't have to pay anything to make it.\n\nhttp://www.geocities.com/sudeepjaiswal_2001
