			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">DA quick study for work at home moms or others who dream of operating an online business or just interested in some part time income on the Internet. One of the wonderful aspects of this modern era is the many ways you can pull in capital. Yes indeed, there are many ways to create income these days, and many people are taking full advantage of them.</p>
<p><strong>How to Do It</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So, what are you doing to supplement your income, or possibly make a little extra money on the side? Did you know that many people are making money with a website? Yeah; it&#8217;s true! So many men and women all around the world, in countless countries are making money through websites and blogs.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Naturally you may be wondering how the heck they are going about this, while you are missing out. It is time to get a little more education on web publishing, blogging, and making money with affiliate products.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In order to effectively making money with a website, you first need to have a website or blog of your own. Now, you may think this is a major challenge or even a big hassle, but it really isn&#8217;t! Thousands of people just like you are earning money from their websites and blogs every day.</p>
<p><strong>Vertical Web Site Marketing</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The key is having a good niche and knowing your audience. Just remember the more people who see you, the better your chances of earning passive residual income. Let&#8217;s say for example you start a blog about celebrity gossip. Once you have a good blog going, you can place advertisements on it to earn money from your readers.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Each time an ad is clicked on, you earn money. This is often call passive income, because it can go on for years to come, and potentially never end if the site stays current. The more traffic you get to your website, the better</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Making passive income with a web site is very feasible. The first thing you need to do is purchase a website domain. This does not cost much. Try around eight or ten dollars. While you must renew the domain name each year, you can write the expense off on taxes. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Since those asking this question are obviously people who have not yet started a website, I should mention that this article follows my Beginner&#8217;s A-Z Guide to Starting/Creating Your Own Websiteclosely. You should consult that guide for more details so that you will have a clearer idea of what is involved in creating a site.<br />
Cost Breakdown for Setting Up a Website</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Since prices of the various components change from time to time, I have linked to the pages providing the prices in addition to mentioning a general figure here. You should always follow the links to the vendors&#8217; sites to get the latest up-to-date prices, since the ballpark figure I list here may no longer be accurate by the time you read this. (Prices are stated in US dollars.)</p>
<p> <strong>  1. Domain Name</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> A basic &#8220;must&#8221; in creating a website is buying your own domain name. There is simply no substitute. The prices for domains vary from registrar to registrar, and are (at the time I wrote this article) around $10 or so per year. You can find the exact price of a domain for some popular registrars in the article How to Register Your Own </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Because a domain name is a necessity for the health and longevity of your website, this price must always be factored into your budget when planning a website. Almost everything else can have substitutes if you have no money, but my rule-of-thumb is to never start a website without a domain name. Websites that don&#8217;t have their own domain name have to use their web host&#8217;s subdomain name (eg, your-site-name.example.com where the web host&#8217;s name is example.com). Such sites are totally at the mercy of that web host. When the latter closes, your site is gone. If the host suddenly decides to charge you an exhorbitant price for hosting your site, you will have no choice but to comply.<br />
   <strong>2.Web Hosting</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> If you want to use a commercial web host, you will need to factor in the cost of web hosting as well. This is a monthly fee that you have to pay to the web host. Some hosts also offer discounts if you pay a year (or more) in advance. Prices vary from web host to web host but are usually (at the time I wrote this article) around $10 per month if your website is new and doesn&#8217;t have much traffic or data. You can find the real prices charged by a number of web hosts on the Budget Web Hosting page. As your website gets more traffic, or if you need to put a lot of big files on your website, you may have to upgrade your site to one of the web host&#8217;s higher-priced plans.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Those who are not earning an income (for example, students) and are merely creating personal websites or hobby sites that will not earn any money can also consider using a free web host that provides free domain hosting. Such web hosts will allow you to host your domain with them without charging you any hosting fees. In exchange, most of them will also place advertisements on your website to recoup their costs of hosting your site. (There may also be other limits, but as they say, beggars can&#8217;t be choosers.)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Note, though, that hosting with a free web host is a risky proposition. The free web hosts I have tested have frequent &#8220;down&#8221; times, times during which your site is inaccessible. One of them had a server that was down for nearly two months during December last year to January this year, the peak business period for many websites. Needless to say, when your site is down, you will receive no visitors nor make any money. If you run a web-based business or are earning from your website through advertisements, you should not use a free web host.<br />
  <strong> 3. Software</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">  The exact software you need for your site depends on the type of website you want to set up. If you are running a blog, you will probably do fine using only free software, such as the ones found on the Free PHP Blogging Software page. However, if you have sufficient funds, you may want to choose the software not based on its price tag (or lack thereof) but on its features and whether it suits your needs. In such a case, you may want to look at my brief comparison of three such software: WordPress Vs Drupal Vs Expression Engine: Which Blog Software Should I Use?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The above review is also relevant for people who want to set up a content management system, or &#8220;CMS&#8221;, for your site. CMS software allows you to manage your website directly from a web browser without using a web editor. Free CMS scripts can be found on the Free Content Management Systems (CMS) PHP Scripts page.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Whether you use blogging or CMS software, you will need an FTP client, a program that allows you to transfer files from your own computer to your web host&#8217;s computer. There are many free FTP programs available (as well as commercial ones). Naturally, if you use a free FTP program, it won&#8217;t cost you a cent.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Once you have settled your domain name and web host, the next step is to design the web site itself. In this article, I will assume that you will be doing this yourself. If you are hiring a web designer to do it for you, you can probably skip this step, since that person will handle this step.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">*  Although there are many considerations in web design, as a beginner, your first step is to actually get something out onto the web. The fine-tuning can come after you&#8217;ve figured out how to get a basic web page onto your site. One way is to use a WYSIWYG (&#8221;What You See Is What You Get&#8221;) web editor to do it. Such editors allow you to design your site visually, without having to muck around with the technical details. They work just like a normal wordprocessor.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> There are many commercial and free web editors around. For those who don&#8217;t mind spending money on a good commercial web editor, one of the most highly-regarded WYSIWYG web editors is Dreamweaver. If you are planning to use this editor, thesitewizard.com has an online tutorial on How to Create a Website with Dreamweaver CS4 (Dreamweaver Tutorial). The tutorial takes you through all the steps of creating a fully-functional website with multiple pages and a feedback form, and provides you with the theoretical and practical foundation that will help you create and maintain your site.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you prefer to use free software, you can find a complete tutorial on using KompoZer, a free WYSIWYG web editor, in the article How to Design and Publish Your Website with KompoZer. Like my Dreamweaver tutorial, this one also guides you through the process of creating a website that has a home page, an about page, a site map, a links page and a feedback form. It also shows you some of the main features of the KompoZer software so that you can go on improving and updating your website on your own.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are many other web design software around. If you prefer not to use either of the above, you can find some others listed on thefreecountry.com&#8217;s Free HTML Editors and WYSIWYG Web Editors page<br />
  *</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">  After you have followed my tutorial, and are on the way to designing your website, you might want to read the article Appearance, Usability and Search Engine Visibility in Web Design as well. The article takes a brief look at some of the real world issues that every web designer must deal with.<br />
    *</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> An integral part of web design is search engine readiness. Search engine promotion does not start after the web site is made. It starts at the web design stage. The article 6 Tips on How to Create a Search Engine Friendly Website is a must-read. My article on How to Improve Your Search Engine Ranking on Google is also important for the simple reason that Google is the most popular search engine around, at least at the time this article was written.<br />
    *</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">  There are many other issues regarding the design of web pages. The above will get you started. However, if you have the time after you get something out onto the web, you may want to read my other articles on Web Design and Website Promotion and Search Engine Ranking.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Anyone who has been marketing online knows that the lifeblood of a business is the traffic of a site. More visitors equal more sales. However, here are some ways that you can tweak your sites with to improve sales without the need to get more visitors. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The first method is to weave in your personal touch in your sales message. Nobody wants to be sold to by a total stranger, but many people will buy what their close friends recommend to them. If you can convince your audience that you are a personal friend who has their best interest at heart, they will be convinced to buy your products. Remember to speak to an individual in your salesletter, not to your whole audience. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The second method is to publish testimonials and comments from your customers. A good idea would be to publish both good and bad comments; that way prospects will be really convinced that these testimonials are real. When prospects see testimonials on your website, they will have the confidence to buy from you because human beings follow the herd mentality; when others have bought and proven it authentic, they will jump on the bandwagon and buy too. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Use visual representations for the problems and solutions that your product offers. Not everyone will read your text copy from the head to the tail, but most people will pay attention to images on your website. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Offer quality bonuses to accompany the product. When you offer bonuses that complement your product, your prospects will feel it&#8217;s a very good deal and it would be stupid to miss it. Be sure to state the monetary value of your bonuses so that people will be even more compelled to grab your good bargain. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Lastly, ask for the sale! Many people entice their prospects with the benefits of their product, sell to them with stories of how it has solved many problems, even offered killer bonuses but forget to ask for the sale. Give a clear instruction on how to buy your product (e.g. &#8220;click the button to buy now!&#8221;).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">A sitemap is often considered redundant in the process of building a website, and that is indeed the fact if you made a sitemap for the sake of having one. By highlighting the importance of having a well constructed sitemap, you will be able to tailor your own sitemap to suit your own needs. </p>
<p><strong>1) Navigation purposes</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A sitemap literally acts as a map of your site. If your visitors browses your site and gets lost between the thousands of pages on your site, they can always refer to your sitemap to see where they are, and navigate through your pages with the utmost ease. </p>
<p><strong>2) Conveying your site&#8217;s theme</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When your visitors load up your sitemap, they will get the gist of your site within a very short amount of time. There is no need to get the &#8220;big picture&#8221; of your site by reading through each page, and by doing that you will be saving your visitors&#8217; time. </p>
<p><strong>3) Site optimization purposes</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When you create a sitemap, you are actually creating a single page which contains links to every single page on your site. Imagine what happens when search engine robots hit this page &#8212; they will follow the links on the sitemap and naturally every single page of your site gets indexed by search engines! It is also for this purpose that a link to the sitemap has to be placed prominently on the front page of your website. </p>
<p><strong>4) Organization and relevance</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A sitemap enables you to have a complete bird&#8217;s eye view of your site structure, and whenever you need to add new content or new sections, you will be able to take the existing hierarchy into consideration just by glancing at the sitemap. As a result, you will have a perfectly organized site with everything sorted according to their relevance. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">From the above reasons, it is most important to implement a sitemap for website projects with a considerable size. Through this way, you will be able to keep your website easily accesible and neatly organized for everyone. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Your website is the hub of your online business; it is the virtual representation of your company whether your company exists physically or not. When you are doing business online, people cannot see you physically like how they could if they were dealing with an offline company. Hence, people do judge you by your covers. This is where a good design comes in. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Imagine if you are running an offline company. Would you allow your salespersons to be dressed in shabby or casual clothes when they are dealing with your customers? By making your staff wear professionally, you are telling your customers that you do care about quality. This works simply because first impressions matter.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Similarly, the same case is with your website. If your website is put together shabbily and looks like a 5 minute &#8220;quick fix&#8221;, you are literally shouting to your visitors that you are not professional and you do not care for quality. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On the opposite, if you have a totally professional looking website layout, you are giving your visitors the perception that you have given meticulous attention to every detail and you care about professionalism. You are organised, focused and you really mean business. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On the other hand, you should also have anything related to your company well designed. From business cards to letterheads to promotional brochures, every little bit matters. This is because as you grow your business, these items become the face of your business. Once again, think of the &#8220;salesperson dressed shabbily&#8221; anology, and you will get my point. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">There is no point in building a website unless there are visitors coming in. A major source of traffic for most sites on the Internet is search engines like Google, Yahoo!, MSN, Altavista and so on. Hence, by designing a search engine friendly site, you will be able to rank easily in search engines and obtain more visitors. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Major search engines use programs called crawlers or robots to index websites to list on their search result pages. They follow links to a page, reads the content of the page and record it in their own database, pulling up the listing as people search for it. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you want to make your site indexed easily, you should avoid using frames on your website. Frames will only confuse search engine robots and they might even abandon your site because of that. Moreover, frames make it difficult for users to bookmark a specific page on your site without using long, complicated scripts. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Do not present important information in Flash movies or in images. Search engine robots can only read text on your source code so if you present important words in Flash movies and images rather than textual form, your search engine ranking will be affected dramatically. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Use meta tags accordingly on each and every page of your site so that search engine robots know at first glance what that particular page is about and whether or not to index it. By using meta tags, you are making the search engine robot&#8217;s job easier so they will crawl and index your site more frequently. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Stop using wrong HTML tags like <font> to style your page. Use CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) instead because they are more effective and efficient. By using CSS, you can eliminate redundant HTML tags and make your pages much lighter and faster to load. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Even though more and more Internet users switch to broadband every year, a large portion of the web&#8217;s population is still running on good old dialup connections. It is therefore unwise to count them out of the equation when you&#8217;re designing your website, and a very major consideration we have to make for dialup users is the loading time of your website. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Generally, all the text on your website will be loaded in a very short time even on a dialup connection. The culprit of slow-loading sites is mainly large images on your website, and it is very important to strike a delicate balance between using just enough images to attract your users and not to bog down the overall loading time of your site. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You should also go to a greater length and optimize every image on your site to make sure it loads in the least time possible. What I really mean is to use image editing software to remove unnecessary information on your images, and thereby effectively reducing the file size of your image without affecting its appearance. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you own Photoshop, it will be obvious to you that when you save an image as a JPEG file, a dialog box appears and lets you choose the &#8220;quality&#8221; of the JPEG image &#8212; normally a setting of 8 to 10 is good enough as it will preserve the quality of your image while saving it at a small file size. If you do not have Photoshop, there are many free image compressors online that you can download and use to reduce your image&#8217;s file size. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On the other hand, you can opt to save your images in PNG format to get the best quality at the least file size. You can also save your images in GIF format &#8212; the image editing software clips away all the color information not used in your image, hence giving you the smallest file size possible. However, saving in GIF format will often compromise the appearance of your image, so make your choice wisely! </p>
