Building a professional looking website is much easier than you think. With today's blogging platforms, you can build a professional website within hours instead of days or weeks.
My first website installation was a free website. It was very simple to create. It looked like a third grade child's poster. Can you relate to that? Would you like to compete with the pros? You can.
Using today's Web2.0 Technologies, creating and installing a professional looking website or web page are relatively simple. Software developers and bloggers jumped on the bandwagon in the early years of this century and a host of free website building tools was born.
A Web 2.0 site is simply a site that lets you interact others. Some of the most commonly known Web 2.0 website building platforms are Blogger.com, TypePad.com, and WordPress.com.
However, because free websites are usually hosted on a provider's hosting service, control of the content is often restricted and limited. Still, building your own professional looking website is very achievable. Here are three ways to build quality professional website.
· The most obvious is to pay someone to create a professional looking website.
· You can create a site from scratch using HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets).
· You can create a quality website yourself using free software.
Let's assume that you have neither the money nor the time to implement the first two options.
