If you are thinking of creating your own web site but do not have the budget to do so, let me show you how to create your own web site with the cheapest ways available

without breaking your bank account!

To create a web site requires 3 components as follows:

1. domain name registration (this is the web site address that we use to locate a web site e.g. www.microsoft.com)

2. Web design for the site

3. web hosting for the web site design

(although there are other ways to shorten this process, I will not be covering here because the main purpose of this article is to help you create a web site with the lowest cost

possible)

Domain Name Registration

Register your domain with www.hostway.com or www.godaddy.com for under USD$10 per year. Sometimes you can get a domain cheaper whenever there is a promotion.
Hostway.com offers one of the cheapest domain name registration services available online globally.
Alternatively, you can register your own domain name with www.godaddy.com, the number 1 domain registrar in the world.

It is very simple to register a domain. Just go to www.hostway.com or www.godaddy.com and search for the domain that you want to see if it is available.
If the domain name is not taken up, simply follow the on-screen instructions to buy the domain for yourself. You will need your debit or credit card to buy the domain.
For alternative payment modes, please check with the respective domain name registrar.



Web Design for the Site

Now, it is time to create your web site design. Do not be intimidated by the thought of it because creating a web site is as easy as using Microsoft Word. The web design

software nowadays offer you WYSISYG (What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get) mode of design. The most popular web authoring software will be Microsoft Frontpage and Macromedia Dreamweaver

but they will cost you a big hole in your pocket to purchase them.

Fortunately, there are many FREE web design software available on the market now which are totally free to download and use for your web site. Some recommendations are

http://www.nvu.com and http://www.evrsoft.com. Go ahead and download them, play around with them, and choose the one you prefer.

If you want to learn more about HTML, go to http://www.w3schools.com for tons of online tutorials but it is not mandatory to do so now before you can start to design your

web site.

Or if you prefer, you can engage a professional web designer do the web site design for you.

Web Hosting for the Site

After your domain name has been successfully registered and your web site design completed, you will need a web hosting plan to upload your web site design onto a web

server so that people can locate your web site when they typed your domain name into a browser such as Internet Explorer, Firefox etc. There are tons of web hosting providers on

the Internet if you do a search online.

We do not recommend free web hosting services available online because they will create lots of trouble for you as you go along marketing your Internet business or web

site. Also, it will look unprofessional for your web site with those sponsored ads all over your own web sites.
