As a newbie Internet marketer the task of building your first webpage may seem complex and daunting. It’s not! Building your own webpage is easy. The Internet offers may sites that will help you create your first webpage or website. Don’t be overwhelmed by the number of sites willing to help you. A search for “free websites” in Google will return over 55 Million hits!
The Problem:
You can create a webpage from scratch. Creating it is not overly difficult, if you want a very basic looking page. You will have to learn some basic Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML). That too is not difficult. It comes down to a question of time. How much time are you willing to spend before you go online; before you start making money?
If you surf the Internet and have checked out the competition, you know that there are some very professional looking websites out there. You would be hard pressed to compete with a very basic looking page.
You can outsource your work and have a professional do it. Well, that costs money and time. Time spent in coordinating with a web designer, the layout, the content, the colors and fonts. How long before you can launch it and start making money?
The Solution:
Although you can use template-driven software like SBI or Dreamweaver to create your webpage, nothing beats the ease of WordPress. If this is your first attempt, with WordPress you can have a webpage up and running within minutes. You will want to tweak it as you learn more. But, you can have a live professional looking webpage knocking on your customer’s door very quickly.
As with a search for “free websites” in Google, you can access many a tutorial on the Internet to help. The difference is the quickness with which you will have your webpage online.
Learn more about WordPress and how to start building your own webpage with WordPress. You will cut your learning curve in half.

Unless you’re a programmer or HTML specialist, writing your own themes for WordPress is probably something you’re not ready to do.
You might be one day, but for now…It’s just not going to happen.
I’m very much like you…I want quality themes, that are easy to work with, affordable, and really special. I want to stand out from the rest of the crowd. It’s a busy place out there and we need to really rise above the fray.
Well, in an effort to share success, I’ve found some Premium WordPress themes.
They are really top-quality, professional themes. My first thought after visiting the site was that I was dealing with real professionalism and integrity.
I clicked through the gallery, of themes, looking for different ideas that might work for my opportunity. I easily found several that I loved and I knew had the potential to give my site the impact I wanted.
After seeing how nice they were; I couldn’t help wondering about a few things:
Cost
User friendliness
Support
And Cost
After all, I’m on a budget just like everyone else.
After seeing these themes I was pretty sure I couldn’t afford them.
I had been checking around and found other premium themes that ranged anywhere from $700 to $1500 dollars per theme! I don’t know about you, but I couldn’t afford that…so…I kept researching and stumbled upon these outstanding WordPress Themes.
The most amazing thing is…wait for it…the COST! I hate to even tell you for fear that you won’t take a look at them.
Top Quality
Elegant
Premium
User Friendly
Community Supported/Creator Supported
Professional
Beautiful-High End
All this for as little as…I kid you not…$19.95 A YEAR! A YEAR, I can hardly believe I’m saying that!
I can download them, use them, drive business to a blog, my blog that I’m proud to display and advertise. Believe me, I’m no expert, and I’ve still got work to do, but the theme I chose looks so professional.
Widgets are easily adapted within the themes with little or no effort. Nick provides support and community forums to help you along the way should you need a helping hand.
You will not find better themes for this price! $19.95 a year…whatever! These are one of a kind and worth much, much more.
I was stunned…and excited…I couldn’t wait to get started and I can’t wait to create more sites.
You’ve got to, at least, look at these…you have nothing to lose. Even if you can’t get them right now, bookmark the site for later.
If I were you I would grab them now, while the price is down. Even if you don’t use them right away, download them and have them to select from when you’re ready to begin to promote your business or product.
The timing is right…it’s not a monthly fee…it’s a $19.95 yearly fee…and you are under no obligation to renew.
Oh, and if you have any questions or need help with them…I’d be glad to help too! Just contact me and tell me how I can help.
To take a look at these wonderful themes please visit Elegant Themes…to see one of the themes in action visit my Sharing Success link in my bio.

The days of hard-coding HTML web pages is long gone. Today, there are numerous pieces of software – known as content management software (CMS) – which will make your life much easier.
Rather than having to know how to do anything technical, once you have your CMS set up adding a page to your site is as simple as logging into your password protected administration area and just typing your article into the box. You click “publish” and the article appears on your site.
But there are so many different pieces of content management software out there it can be hard to decide which one you should go with. Many people say that just trying a few out is a good idea and while I agree with them in principle, installing and trying out a number of these pieces of software can be very time consuming so the purpose of this article is to examine a few of the more popular options in the hope that I can cut down on your research time.
WordPress
WordPress was created as software to run blogs on but is versatile enough to be used as a full-blown CMS. WordPress is possibly the easiest CMS of all to install and use and pleasantly there are loads of free themes available to help you customize the look and feel of your site. There are also a large number of free plugins to help to extend the functionality of WordPress by adding focums, photo galleries, social bookmarketing elements and so on.
80% of my own sites currently run on WordPress and I have been very hapy with the results.
Joomla
Joomla is a slightly more heavy-duty CMS that many of todays large community and content sites are built on. Whilst it is a little harder to learn to use than WordPress, it is more suitable for websites where you are either expecting higher visitor numbers or you want an even more customized feel at the end.
While one can generally tell websites that are made with WordPress because they have some similarities in design and layout, typically with Joomla the sky is the limit.
Joomla too has a large number of add-ons to help you make it do whatever you want from allowing readers to vote on their favourite articles to interacting with each other like a bone fide social networking website.
Drupal
Drupal is the third and final piece of software I want to mention. It is a popular application among web designers but having tried it myself in the past I must admit that I found it too difficult to get to grips with. This is in contrast to the two previous options which I found I quickly got the hang of and swear by now.
I’m not saying Drupal is bad software in any way, just that my own experience is that it is far more difficult to use than the other options, so I would recommend them over Drupal.
Lastly, be aware that all three of these options are absolutely free, so if you have a web hosting account you can always install just these few and try them out for size.

If you wish to establish an online presence then your first step is going to be to get a website up and running. You will save a lot of money by building the website yourself and this does not have to be as technically challenging as it first appears.
One of the easiest solutions is to use WordPress as your platform. WordPress has traditionally been known as a means for creating blogs, however there are now a number of themes available which allow you to use it in the traditional website format.
WordPress is ideal for those who do not have a great deal of technical expertise because, not only is it easy to use but it has new plugins being developed constantly which add all kinds of helpful features, and it also has really great support and forums, where pretty much any question will be answered.
When you set up your first website you will be amazed at how easy it is to make it look professional. Most WordPress themes have done all of the hard work for you from a design point of view, so all you need to focus on is the content. At a very minimum you should include an ‘About Us’ page, terms and conditions, a privacy policy and contact details. You then need to create the content which will tell the world about your information, your skills or your products. This will hold true for whatever niche or business type you are involved in.
Have a look around at other websites in your niche, not with the aim of copying any of the content or layout, but just getting a feel for what works and what doesn’t. If you find an interface clunky or non-intuitive, then guess what your customer probably will do too, and thus you can avoid making the same mistakes.
Simplicity is the key element in the success of a website. Yes the theme can have a great design and this will make it aesthetically pleasing, but the method of moving from one page to the next should be intuitive and everything should be clearly marked and easy to find. You know yourself that if you go to a site and that you can’t find what you are looking for pretty quickly you are going to click away and find the information or the product you need somewhere else.
By using WordPress to build your website on, by installing a theme that is CMS based and by following these tips on the layout of the site, you will soon be up and running and have a firm base on which to build your business.

STEP 1: Find A Niche
When I search for a niche idea, I try to find either a problem that people want to solve, or a product that people buys already. There are many web pages and tools I go through in my niche selection step. ClickBank Marketplace, Amazon Bestsellers, PayPal Shops and many other resources to brainstorm some profitable niche ideas. You can find literally thousands of niches in different areas and new ones are popping up every day. So, there will always be some niches that you could monetize.
STEP 2: Keyword Research
After I found a niche that I believe to be profitable, I do some keyword research. Although this step is as important as all the internet marketing gurus mention, I do not spend days or weeks on keyword research. Since I can not be sure if I will rank high and get some traffic without trying and just looking at the numbers. Here, I mainly use Google Keyword Tool and SEOQuake add on for FireFox to find profitable keywords and analyze them.
STEP 3: Decide on the Concept of the Site
Once the keyword research is done, I think about how to monetize it. Will I go for Google Adsense, affiliate sales or some CPA offers? Will it be an affiliate review site, an info-blog or some other type? I look for related affiliate products, CPCs for related keywords and related CPA offers.
STEP 4: Find a Suitable Domain Name and Register It
When the keyword research is complete, I look up for a suitable domain name. The more a domain name is keyword based, the better it is. However, I may go for a generic domain name – not one or two word generic names, like freesoftware or makemoney of course – if I can not find the domain with exact keywords and if the one I selected makes me happy with it.
STEP 5: Set up WordPress
The next step is setting up WordPress to your blog. This is as straight as it is. You can download WordPress on the official website, if your hosting provider does not support WordPress.
STEP 6: Choose a Nice/Niche Theme
After the blog is setup, I browse through free WordPress theme resources to find a sutiable one for my niche. Since there are thousands of free nice-looking themes and everyday more are coming, I’ve never paid for a WP theme, though there are some wonderful themes that I would like to purchase in the future. You may check FreeWPThemes.net.
STEP 7: Configuration of Settings and Plugins
Once I am happy with the theme of my new site, I go through adjusting the settings and installing the necessary plugins I will make use of. Some of the plugins I use:
All In One SEO Pack Contact Form 7 Advanced Permalinks No Ping Wait
There are lots of useful plugins you can find inside the WordPress plugins archive. I make sure to make the blog available to the public by changing the privacy settings and adding some pinging services.
STEP 8: Tracking Traffic with Google Analytics
I love to track things and I am sure all the internet marketers are same since they are doing this business. I use Google Analytics for the time and it is really sufficient for my purposes. I add the code to the footer.php file just before the closing “body” tag.
Now it comes to populating the blog and posting something on it. When my blog has about 10 articles and the theme is settled more or less I go with the last two steps.
STEP 9: Submit to Directories
There are many many directories that you could submit your website, I have a list of them and submit to 3-5 directories each day. This will help my website indexed faster and will bring some link popularity.
STEP 10: Get Traffic
I have tried nearly all the traffic getting techniques like forum posting, blog commenting, video marketing, social networks though what I really like to see is the visitors coming from the search engines. The organic SEO is my favorite, since you work on it only once and if you do it right, you can expect visitors for your life as long as there is people searching for the terms you built your SEO efforts on.

Virtual Assistants need websites to market to their clients and showcase their services. If you are a virtual assistant who does not know much about web design and development, do not worry about hiring a web designer yet. Take a look at this to find out why you should use WordPress to power your website.
It’s free. It doesn’t cost anything to use WordPress. Once you cover the costs of your domain and your web host, you’re good to go. Your web host should support MySQL databases, because WordPress will require one of these to run. Many web hosts provide support for this technology, so you shouldn’t have to worry.
It’s customizable. There are many different themes and plug-ins available to help you customize your WordPress powered website to your liking. Many of these themes and plug-ins are completely free to use, and others you will have to pay for. There are also many different web designers who specialize in WordPress designs. Many themes come with instructions to help you customize their appearance even further with CSS. Thesis is a commonly used fully customizable WordPress theme, but requires purchase.
There’s tons of support. The community of developers for WordPress is very open. There is a good amount of documentation to help everyone with WordPress, regardless of experience level. With the WordPress.org website and thousands of others dedicated to it, there’s no doubt you will be able to find what you are looking for.
It’s great for SEO. SEO means search engine optimization. Search Engine Optimization refers to the practice of making your website work so that it is picked up by the search engines, to bring more natural traffic to your website. Traffic is necessary for a website to get business, and is often used to measure the success of a website or marketing campaign. Part of how the search engines rank a website is based on the number of links going from it, coming to it, and linking it together. All posts and pages are automatically linked together in a number of ways with WordPress. If you need additional help with SEO, there are plug-ins to help, too.
It doesn’t take much to install and it maintains itself. All you have to do is visit WordPress.org to download the files, and upload them to your web server with FTP. Once the files have been uploaded to your web server, all you need to do is run the “5 minute installation” to setup the database where your website information will be stored. It’s a very simple process
These are just a few different reasons to use WordPress to power your virtual assistance business. It’s great for people who don’t know much about web design and development, and it will work to connect to your audience of potential clients and other Virtual Assistants.
Coming soon! AI Virtual Solutions will introduce a WordPress classes!

Who is Woo Themes?
Woo Themes is a project started by three respected designers – Adii, Magnus Jepson and Mark Forrester – whom all share one thing: their passion for WordPress. You can explore other platforms high and low for CMS solutions, but you’ll never see anything like the incomparable themes you’re certain to find on Woo Themes.
They pride ourselves not only in the quality of their theme releases, but also that of their support & customer service. Woo themes ultimate aim is to build a community of passionate WooThemes users, where future themes will be influenced by their userbase. They truly love WordPress and after using any of woo themes themes, you’ll not only love WordPress, but you’ll love WooThemes as well!
I won’t lie, there are plenty of “so-called” Custom WordPress Themes, so I couldn’t imagine it being much different. I already had purchased one of Brian Gardner’s themes and he is one of the pioneers of custom WordPress Themes.
Woo themes are all built on a solid code framework which they have fine tuned over time. In a minimal amount of time, you’ll get maximum returns with the help of a new backend that allows the effortless application of selections and multiple traits to every available theme on Woo Themes. You’ll have an intensive knowledge base, helpful tutorials, and in-depth Woo themes documentation within easy reach. Their Woo Themes Ninjas deliver outstanding technical support and guidance on basic customization issues that you might have. Woo themes promise to deliver a minimum of 2 new themes every month, so that you can easily satisfy your clients needs and keep your personal blog looking fresh. That is the advantage of our awesome subscription packages.
Of course, the crux of the concern is whether or not Woo Themes is as valuable as it seems.
It is my humble view that the answer to that inquiry is a resounding, “Yes.” Woo Themes is worth it’s weight in gold, and this belief is coming from someone who is no amateur when it comes to WordPress. I’ve tried many free and premium themes, and none compare to Woo Themes.
In the admin section of Woo Themes, you’ll find an exclusive “Theme Option Tab”, which allows you to do a collection of neat things, such as:
* Easily change your logo – demonstrate your artistry!
* Upload FeedBurner URL – custom RSS feed direction at your fingertips!
* Add Google Analytics
* Add Flickr photos
* Upload Twitter amendments – keep the world apprised, minute by minute!
* And more! The possibilities are infinite, restricted only by your vision.
Adding any one of these choices to your site is wonderfully prompt and effortless, and it’s one of the superior things about Woo Themes. There’s no digging through the code, not worrying if you placed it in the right section, it’s all laid out for you ready to go.
Woo Themes and reputable designers, such as Elliot Jay Stocks, have put their heads together to make their ideas genuine and totally unique. They also guarantee that you’ll see at least 1 new theme every month. As of yet, they’ve without fail kept that promise.
You don’t need to take my advice though, go to their site and demo any of the themes, read what the community is saying on their blog and you’ll know what I am talking about.

Building a successful blog all boils down to 4 main things. If followed, your blog will surely become successful. Building and maintaining a successful blog is not the hardest thing you will ever do, but it’s also not the easiest. If you want to use your blog to just ramble on about everyday events in your life, you most likely aren’t going to take it very far. There are 4 things you really should focus on for running your blog.
#1. The look of your blog.
Style or the look of your blog is important to set the stage for what you will be blogging about. This is where a good blog platform such as WordPress comes in handy. WordPress has many blog templates available at the click of your mouse. Did I mention that there are thousands of them for free? No matter what the topic of your blog is, there will be a template to compliment it.
You will want to find a template with a good layout as well as a nice color scheme for your blog. Don’t get too hung up on the look right away. WordPress makes it so easy to completely change the look without disturbing the content so you can change it at any time.
If this seems like too daunting a task, you can always find people willing to set up your blog for a reasonable fee. The one thing I will say is, WordPress is getting easier and easier to use. If you just try it yourself, you will soon realize it’s easier than you think.
#2. Your blog’s content.
As I said earlier, if this is just going to be a personal diary, you will have trouble getting any kind of a following. Unless of course, you are an extremely exciting individual.
The best way to add content is to stick with 1 niche or topic and keep your blog focussed on that niche or topic. If you are blogging about everything under the sun, you will have a hard time keeping peoples interest.
When it comes to content, the more the merrier. The more information your blog has, the more people you will attract to read it. You also need to remember that the search engines love lots and lots of fresh new content. If you really want your blog to take off, you will no doubt need the help of the search engines. Otherwise, how will people ever find you?
#3. Advertising on your blog.
If you want your blog to bring in steady money, placing ads is one of the best ways to get it going. There will be a happy medium you must find for the ads vs content. If you blog is nothing but ads and not much content, readers will just plain and simply leave. Why else would they stick around? We all get enough advertising throughout the day.
You will also want to limit the use of banners. People just aren’t as responsive to banners as they used to be. Most people will find too many banners to be annoying. The ads you put up should also be relative to the topics of your blog. A program like Google Adsense, will do this automatically for you, so you won’t have to worry about finding the right ads.
#4. Blog consistently.
I have saved the most important topic for last. In order to have a successful blog, consistency is the name of the game. Nobody ever starts out from day one with tens of thousands of visitors. It just takes time to build a successful blog from the ground up. Even if you follow the other tips we just discussed, you wont get very far without constantly updating your blog with new material. Blogging for money takes a great amount of dedication. If you aren’t committed to your blog, you will not make any decent money with it.

These WordPress Plugins Will Help You Drive Traffic
Just install them one by one then go back to your homepage and make sure your site is still operational the way it should be. I have used all of these plugins at one stage or another, some of them are deactivated now, but none of these gave me any misfortune with my WordPress Thesis Theme.
A couple of these plugins take some time to set up correctly and my suggestion would be write down all your logins, usernames & passwords to refer back to in case you get in a muddle and forget, this may save you a lot of time and frustration later.
I am speaking from past experience “not enjoyable ones” and now I write every username, password & email down just in case. It really sux when you have computer probs and lose all your automatic logins.
The best way to install these is to login to your wordpress admin panel and goto plugins >- Add New >- Search. When you acquire what you want just install it from right there in the in your site. You ought to see an Install Button on the right hand side of the elected plugin.
If you at this point don’t own a WordPress blog just go to my How To Set Up A WordPress Blog post and follow the video instructions.
I haven’t gone into a lot of detail with these as the best explanations are with the plugins themselves.
Addtoany: Help people share & bookmark your content with the world’s best sharing button

However each button is only visible to the user if he has visited the corresponding site lately.

So there you have it, this should keep you busy for a while and dont fail to remember to make sure you dont double up on things, some of the social media plugins might seem like they will double up, but when you look more closely you will notice that one may not have every site the other has so just enable what you need.
There is a virtual endless list of plugins, for example… there are plugins specifically made for Amazon ect… thats why I have only covered the prime traffic generating helpers.
If you know of a great plugin that I haven’t mentioned here, please leave a comment and let me know.
