Start Now! Build Your Own Free Site

So, you have finally realized that there is something missing in your life. It’s that personal website that you have procrastinated on for so long but need to start immediately. Are you aware that you can make your own website totally free? Let me show you where to download some of the best no-cost open source software and also how to use it.

Regardless of whether you go with a blog or html type site, you will need a photo/image program to produce your header. The GIMP is a very powerful graphics editor that is open source and free. And I happen to have videos that show you how to download it and create your first header.

If you decide on a blog then download my free SEO Optimized Blog. Just be aware that you will need to upload the blog to your server first. You then log in to the dashboard of the admin section where you can do all your editing.

The primary benefit of working with an html site is that you can do all your editing on your desktop and then use your browser to test it before you upload it. One thing you will require is a program that can edit html. The premier WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor that fills this bill is Kompozer. Kompozer is another open source and free program. To watch video tutorials that also have post/transcripts, you need to go to How To Build Your Site for Free.
