How To Get Your Own Website - Lesson 3

August 22nd, 2006

Now that you have a domian name, you need a web host. Like I said earlier, you can host your domain and your web site with the same service, or you can can have the two hosted seperately. Your decision will be based on the different packages these services offer. For example, one service might offer affordable and flexible domain hosting but have a site hosting package that is not too attractive, and vice versa.

Let me use a flexible arrangement I know as an example. By the way, I do not have any affiliation with either Yahoo or Superb.net. I’m merely recommending them because I use them. I host my domains with yahoo. fast and convinient. I host my websites (I do have a couple of them) with Superb Hosting, robust and functional. Remember I mentioned how to set up your domain name to connect to your hosting package earlier in this series. Ok. Now you need to set up your hosting package to connect to your domain name. I’ll just walk you through the steps.

Go to www.superb.net
Click on I need a web site
Click on Small business plan/more. This costs between $14.50 - $20 per depending on the billing option you select.
Click on order.
Enter your domain account and payment details. I hope you have signed up with Graphcard.
Go to mycp.superb.net to set up your account.

When you log on to your account you will see something like the screenshot shown below

Setup hostging account

The account comes with one IP address. Fisrt thing you’d want to do is resolve this IP address to your domain name. Some like what is shown next

IP resolution

This is all you need to set up your first website. What’s next? You need to build a website. Do you need to know HTML, JavaScript or CSS? Have you heard of Content Management Systems (CMS)? Lesson 4 is coming.

    This is a very important thing, because to reach TOP 10 in Google, Yahoo!, MSN and other major search engines, you have to get as much quality incoming links as you can. What is an incoming link? It is when someone links to your site from his webpage. And when you have more links to your web site, your rank goes up. The better quality of the link is, the better ranking boost your site receives in search results.

    How to get such links?
    There are many ways to develop a high number of incominig links to your website.

    1. reciprocial linking - asking other webmasters for links and linking back to their websites in exchange. It used to be an effective method, but right now search engines discount the value of such links to zero.
    2. cross linking - asking other webmasters for link from to your website, and linking back to their website from your OTHER website. A similar method may be used when you have only one website, but your linking partner has 2 or more websites - ask for link to your site from one of his sites, and link back to his OTHER website in exchange.
    3. context linking - writing articles with links to your website in the article text (target your keyphrases or keywords!), or sponsoring other articles, that have high Google PR

    The most important component of getting ranked higher on the search engines, is increasing your link popularity. The more websites that are linking to your site, the higher your ranking will be. To increase your link popularity, you will need to submit your website to link exchange directories so that you can swap links with other websites (they will link to you if you agree to link to them). Also, you can write articles and submit them to article submission directories. At the bottom of each article you write, you are allowed to include a link to your website.
