Within this over competitive business sector there are certainly some bargain to be had. You should be able to get a good looking, search engine friendly website built for between £50 and £100.

I am not a web designer myself; I am actually involved in the training for foster carers, external doors and Voucher Codes industries – these keep me busy enough!

So where can I find some a person or company to design and build me a site at such a cheap fee?

These are the places I would be looking:

internet search engines

yellow pages

asking family and friends

newspaper advertisements

shop window advertisements

internet auction websites such as ebay

When you have found a designer who is going to build your website, you need to find the content for your website, choose colours and graphics and think of the page titles for each page. I personally like to name the pages of the site as the key phrases that I believe people are likely to search for.

So your high quality website is now live on the internet; it is now time to start thinking of the best ways to promote it. Attempting to increase the number of one-way backward links that point to your website has been an essential element of web promotion for many years and this is likely to be the case in the future as well.

Writing articles like the one you are reading is also of value as people are able to use them for free on their website, thus creating you an additional backward link.

There are additional opportunities to make money from the site via a program such as google adsense. This is where you agree that Google can place their clients adverts on your site. When a visitor clicks on the ad you earn money.
