New to all of this?
Setting yourself up online is easy... and we're here to help. Let's
begin!
- Get a domain name.
If you don't already have a name chosen for your web presence, now
is the time to do it. With thousands of domains being registered
every day, the domain you want might not be available tomorrow for
you if you don't register it today. A domain should be easy to
remember and describe the subject of your site.
- Choose a hosting package.
Selecting a hosting package can be a difficult and often confusing
decision. To make this process easier, beHosting.com has carefully
tailored three plans to meet your needs. If you're unsure about
the best hosting plan for you, expert for advice, feel free to
stop by the Help Desk and ask our Support Team for
recommendations. Include as much information as possible about
your planned project.
- Build your site.
Building a web site is easy, and there are a number of ways to do
it.
- You can use a web page editor such as Microsoft's
FrontPage or Macromedia's DreamWeaver.
- You might like to code it (build it) "by hand"
using HTML.
- If that sounds like too much to learn, then you can always
enlist some help in the form of living, breathing, web
designers, or in the form of our SiteBuilder feature, or
with web site templates. Each method has its own set of
benefits:
- A designer will work with you to give your site a look
that is truly unique. The main drawbacks are cost and time,
though both can vary widely. The end result will be a site
that's one of a kind.
- Our SiteBuilder is service allows you to build a
professional looking site in minutes without having to know
any HTML or programming. This method is as easy as using a
word processing program.
- A template is another way to get started quickly. If you
know how to copy and paste with your keyboard, you can build
a custom site, and pick up some HTML as you go!
To make things easier, we've created beSources.com. This
webmaster resource site offers articles, tutorials,and links for
further study on everything you need to know in order to build
(and then promote!) your website. In addition to the articles and
tutorials, beSources.com is introducing a webmaster community
where you can ask other webmasters for help and advice.
- Once your site is built, you'll want people to see it.
Submitting your site to search engines is a good way to start. As
your journey continues, we invite you to talk with fellow
webmasters at beSources.com, or to visit our Help Desk and FAQ
section to get advice on the topic of Site Promotion, as well as
other topics. As some questions are answered, others will spring
up. It is our intention here at beHosting.com to provide you with
the tools to begin... and to continue! We're here... and we'll
always be happy to help.
