So, you're thinking, "I want to make my own website!"
You are about to embark on a journey to help build the internet. Lots
of people do it, you can do it too. It's a fairly simple task, if you
follow the right steps.
Webpages are a lot like what Shrek said about Ogres,
"onions have layers, ogres have layers."

Webpages have layers too!
You could write a story, design HTML code, make web page graphics,
purchase an internet domain name, setup good internet web page
hosting, make a good webpage layout, FTP (file transfer protocol),
internet web page hosting, DNS (domain name services), increase
search engine traffic and convert those visitors into income.
Each of these items are a layer when you make your own web site. You can
pick and choose the layers you want to spend the most resources on.

Purchase Internet Domain Name
|

Only one person in the world can have each domain name. The domain registry keeps
track of all domain names. Maybe yours is still available. They don't cost very much
and the process is easy. It costs nothing to look.
A domain name can be your address forever (for an annual fee). It is just a name,
and your name can reside just about anywhere. You can change web hosting vendors,
business addresses or even countries and usually keep the same domain name. It's
much easier for people to remember a name, than a number.
I've found a couple of web page hosting sites with entirely different goals. Select
the one that suits your needs the best.
Make Money with your web page

best and follow a subject you have a passion for. The secret to
making money with your web page is to attract many visitors and give

When you make your web page, planning ahead is time well spent. Even
your domain name can attract business, if you choose wisely. For example,
if you were thinking "how do I make my own web page," you might have
