Step 6: Build Your Website

Let's go on to today's task. Today, we will start creating your website. Apart from webspace, a good website builder is one of the most important investments you can make to earn money online.

Check out the website builder I recommend.

Now, for those who signed up for free webspace, check out if you have a page builder or site builder in your account. This will help you build your webpages.

When you build your website, remember these things:

- Keep the layout simple. This means no flashy graphics, no rotating images etc. This just distracts your reader and you will end up not making any money at all.


Make sure you have a good navigation menu. This means, users should be able to access your menu from all pages (This is one of the reasons I love my Website Builder, it automatically updates the menu whenever you add a new page to your website).

- Stick to one topic. Each website should have one topic and one topic only. If you start a site about gardening, don't jump over to sports or anything else by the third page.

- Create at least 25 pages. Next step is to apply for an AdSense account and you need a website with at least 25 pages to do that. So add at least 25 pages of content.

I have built all my websites using XSitePro, which is a bit expensive but of excellent quality. It takes care of everything related to website creation and I can use it as easily as I type a Microsoft Word document.

If you want a cheaper one with less features you can consider this website builder. This does not have all the special features of XSitePro and is not as easy to use. But you can create basic websites with this one.
