Windows or *nix Web Hosting
When a web hosting provider is talking about an operating system, he/she means the operating system that his/her server uses. There is no need for Windows hosting if one is using a Windows operating system on his/her machine. Windows hosting is not required if one is building his/her pages in Front Page. The main reason for opting Windows web server hosting is that it enables to take advantage of .asp and .net programming capabilities, which can be extremely powerful.

1. Make use of article distribution sites. This is one of the fastest, and most straightforward ways of getting your content ‘out there’ and absorb by websites. Do it as soon as you have enough original content. Don’t go for too many, just select about 3 article distributions sites and submit away (I like EzineArticles, IdeaMarketers and GoArticles).
2. Insert images into your web pages. I checked my logs and I have proof that images draw in a lot of ‘extra’ traffic. People search for images as well as web pages. So if your web page is about ‘how to buy a laptop’ and you have a picture named ‘how-to-buy-a-laptop.jpg’ – you will cover both the image searches and text searches.
3. Participate very actively in ONE forum. If you participate in an online forum, you will slowly build credibility with your web readers. Don’t spam – please – just contribute and solve others’ problems. And my style is to select only ONE forum to participate in. That way, you can build up your contribution base very quickly. If folks see you have 1000 posts in a forum, they tend to read what you say. And that means they are more likely to click your links or signature.
4. Send out your newsletter regularly. This is another important point. I personally fail to send my SBI newsletter regularly and it is costing me traffic. If you judiciously send your newsletter out, you get more and more traffic because folks come in to your website, read the latest articles and spread more »

If you have ever worked with a contractor, interior designer, landscaper, or even had your haircut you know what the Diva is saying.
By participating in self website design, you are proactively ensuring that your ideas are heard and your voice, style, and personality are reflected in the design of the site and the wording of the copy. At the end of the day, you are selling yourself. If a website appears clinical, dry, devoid of color, or weighed down with copy, it may not express who you are or what you have to offer.
Creative designers and writers are very passionate about their work and can be overly sensitive when it comes to correction or making changes to what is your website but their masterpiece. There is nothing wrong with using a creative designer or copywriter as long as you are both on the same page. It is important that the person that builds your site shares your vision, understands your philosophy, and as long as it is to your advantage bends to your wishes, this is where self website design comes in, based on these qualities you are the best person more »
