"pleasure and profit." To that end we offer a wide range

Build for pleasure
Many people build websites and never publish them
on the web. Nothing wrong in that; many people paint pictures
or write books just for their own amusement.
Having built your website you could copy it on to
a memory stick and pass it to friends to admire (or criticise).
Websites can even be emailed as attachments if not too large.
Make a profit
If you're going to publish your website on the
web you may as well "monetize" it. by running advertisements
for Google, Amazon, eBay etc. But don't think that you can build
a website and make a fortune overnight.
Running a website as a business is no different
from running any other business and needs the same attention.
Not many succeed.
Don't be fooled
Don't be fooled by people who try to tell you otherwise
and offer to sell you "secrets" that will make you filthy
rich overnight. If you want to learn about marketing I'll be dealing
with this shortly with free reports.
At the end of the day, you need a website that is
good to look at and explore but it will not, of itself, make you
money. Your website is simply your shop window and the hardest
job is getting plenty of people to visit.

recommendations for building websites. This is all original material.
