Creating a Web Site on a Shoestring

By: Jason Smith

In times past, you had to have a lot of money to build a website.
Now, however, even though you have a shoestring budget, it's
possible to create a website for almost next to nothing. If you want
to test the waters on the Information Highway, now is a great time
as it won't cost you a fortune.

One option you have in creating a website on a budget is to use free
software. Free software is readily available on the Internet for just
about any programming need you may have. Many of the scripting
languages are also free. You can always go to sourceforge.net,
which shows you a large amount of free software that is available to
help you create your own website.

Free software is frequently used by the masses of people that utilize
the Internet today. It is becoming the "norm", so to speak. If you
go with a free program make sure it is very popular and has a good
user forum, so you will have a place to ask questions.

Another option is to use an inexpensive program like XSitePro.
Now this program will set you back about 200 dollars, but that
really is economical when you compare it to other html editors.
XSitePro was made with internet entrepreneurs in mind and makes
building websites quick and easy.

One of the easiest and cost effective ways of building your website
is to use one of the templates that come with your html editor
software. You can always start with one of the free templates and
then edit and tweak it to make it your own. You can also find
many templates for sale online and they are usually reasonably
priced.

In order for the world and your customers to see your website you
will need to host it somewhere. There are many low-priced hosting
companies available today. Since you are just starting out you
probably do not need a lot of space or bandwidth.

Usually, you have to pay by the month to host your website. Now,
however, there are some hosting companies that allow website
owners to only pay for what he or she uses. This type of hosting
works best for personal websites and not business sites though.

No matter what your budget is, make sure you think everything
through before you get started. It's always best to do it once and
do it right. The alternative is very frustrating and a waste of your
precious time. So before you decide on the cheapest or free
website builder make sure that it will do everything that you are
looking for. It is also important to choose a website builder with
excellent support and user forums, so when you get stuck, (and you
will) you'll have a place to turn for help.
