Website Development


Website tools 

Here you will find website tools and tips to build your own website. There are a few things to consider carefully in website development such as the following: You don't need to focus on and put a lot of effort into making a pretty website. Therefore, less is more because it does not confuse the customer as much. Remember, the internet is all about looking for information so the search engines find it and deliver it through keywords so pick the right keywords and repeat them several times on your website.

There are many ugly websites that make a geat deal of money because they presell the product or service, have great SEO with the right keywords, useful domain name and all that is the key. While on the other hand, there are also very beautiful websites online filled with great content, useless domain name, few keywords, bad SEO so they were not found and they are not profitable. It is a learning experience to put it all together and make it into a successful website. Just remember for it to be a success online it need a great website, targeted traffic and a product in demand.

Website needs to be simple, easy to navigate, with great domain name, great keywords with SEO and focused on steps to take that lead to sale. As well as having the op-in box in place towards the top to get the customer's email address. Top priority for a successful website owner should be to help their customers and do what he or she has a passion for so it will be more fun in the long run to make an online business work. Therefore, think and ask yourself what do I know that can benefit others? Build great content, be different or interesting
then provide useful products or service.

Avoid placing Flash and Flash menus on the home page. Instead of images put text with relavant keyword phrases for the search engines. The landing page should be specific and have a call to action if appropriate

Another option is to find someone to do the website for you if you are not up to doing it yourself web development or go to outsourcing options

If you build your own site you will need to have a HTML editor to make your website.There are various editors available such as FrontPage from Microsoft which is simple. Dreamweaver from Macromedia or Coffee Cup. Dreamweaver is not really user friendly. It is expensive and it has a steep learning curve as well. So if you have both time and money go for it. Then there is this free webauthoring system  drag and drop site builder or get this free website builder

Make your own banners here Instantbannercreator

When Uploading files to website SmartFTP works great. If banners are not showing up on website after uploading it might have to do with your firewall /antivirus (Norton) or banner blocker (Firefox + Adblockplus) that might be blocking it so simply turn it off while uploading and then turn it back on. Also, make sure the banner is in the same directory as the files that are being uploaded.
It is also a good idea to test a websites in different browsers before uploading it and fix what is not working.

If you are rebranding a website that you bought through a reseller deal and you want to differenciate it to fit in with your taste.    So you might want to get a domain name and find a host, but you also want to change it into your name, PayPal account to collect your profits, the colors or text that you like, and perhaps change the wording, pick great keywords or graphs if you want. You can pick it apart and change it the way you want.

Simply, use Winzip to download the file and then extract the file. There you have a folder and you want to look for the index as that is the landing page where you want to make some changes. You will need to pull the index up in a Notepad or HTML editor mentioned above to make the changes and once that is done save it. Then test it in the browser to make sure it looks all right. You will also need to look for the Thank You page and make some minimum changes there as well with download instructions for your website name. You do want to be careful not to have the Thank You page's download link exposed or change it often.


Always test and retest links to make sure they are working. Broken links kill sales faster than anything else can.

Rebranding - If you are making changes to an ebook that you bought with Reseller Rights you will need to open up the file first of all. It can be done with converters that change the document from PDF to Word and then convert it back from Word to PDF. There are several PDF converters available. Once the file is open you just make the changes in the book, save it in Word and then convert it back to PDF.

If you are looking for protection for your ebook try their ebook protection This web tool lets you actually compare your site with your competitor's website.

Website backup

It is important to back up your website or articles regularly besides on your hard drive or portable drive. It is a good idea to have an extra back up online as well, such as backup.com or hyperoffice.com

There is a possibility you might need a FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to upload your webpage to the hosting company. It really depends on the hosting company as most of them do not help with that so you are on your own to figure it out. I like Smart FTP version 3.0 the best becasue it really works, but there are others out there that are a total waste of time and a cause of frustration.


Webinars or Teleseminars

If you listen to many of the Internet Marketing or Web experts's teleseminars or webinars it helps to use low cost or free national or international calls so you can make calls from your computer.  Skype has 10 way video calls too.

Internet Security

Always back up your website files for protection. Make sure you have a great security system installed on your computer with firewall and protection from viruses, spyware, etc., I recommend them because they are the best. It is not only costly if the hard disk crashes but valuable information can be lost so it can be a very frustrating experience. Protect your privacy online using Free Tor Proxy Server It will defend you against network surveillance and traffic analysis. Also, more likely to keep your Internet service going in case  authorities try to shut it down.

Also, it is important to get this free computer cleaning system for your computer and use it daily to keep your privacy safe online and it makes your computer work faster as well. (it is free if you click on the download link below the pay button).
