Things you should know before starting to build your own website.

First of all you should know that for having a website, up and running, you have to pay for at least two things. Yes, even if you build it yourself.

          1. You have to pay for YourDomainName.com;

          2. You have to pay for someone to host your website.

To start building your website you should know what kind of website you want.

Are you sure you want a website or just a blog?

If you want a blog you can build one for free with Blogger or WordPress.

If you want a website, what will it be? A personal website, an online shop, or other.

Before you start building a website you must establish what type of content you will write and how will you write it.

This will depend on the public you addressed to. For example, if you make a website that contains medical information, you will have to use common language so that people can understand you, not a specific language of medicine.

What about SEO? To have a successful website you have to optimize it (Search Engine Optimization). 

Here's a short website optimization tutorial.

If you made a website to make money online, you should know that is not possible overnight. Making money online is not that hard, but making a lots of money is hard work.

Here's short list of things you should know before you start building your website.

     - what kind of site you want to build.

     - what is the content you want to promote through the site.

     - how does the website will look. (I find it more easy to write code if I have a sketch).

     - what are your targets for the website.
