Become Your Own Webmaster :: The Website Design Course for
Non-Geeks
*
Would you like to...
_
be able to build your own IMPRESSIVE WEBSITES in minutes_?
AVOID HAVING TO SPEND MONTHS LEARNING complicated programming
languages and software, as most web designers do?
learn how to do this by watching a series of SIMPLE-TO-FOLLOW
VIDEOS?
That's what a revolutionary new course - BECOME YOUR OWN WEBMASTER -
is designed to do.
The tutorial videos will teach you step-by-step how easy it is to
build your own sites
The course will teach you step-by-step how to get started in the
world of web design, using THE LATEST TECHNIQUES that are changing the
way the web is being built - and allowing average web users to start
creating their own online sites... that look and act better than those
of the pros!
You no longer need to through the extensive learning process that
has been common up until now - and prevented many people joining in
the fun.
There are many reasons that so many people are getting started in
the world of building their own websites...
The joy of seeing your own work showcased in front of a
WORLD-WIDE AUDIENCE
Being able to CHARGE CLIENTS HUNDREDS, EVEN THOUSANDS, OF DOLLARS
for simple projects you enjoy doing
Being able work on your sites pretty-much ANYWHERE ON THE PLANET,
ANYTIME of the day or night
Whatever your own reasons, the fact is that NOW IS THE PERFECT TIME
to get involved. Not only are millions of new people joining the
online community every week, but new services are letting average web
users do things previously only available to programming experts.
And once you learn the simple steps of how to build your first site,
there'll be no stopping you. You could build everything from personal
sites, to sites for friends or family, for groups you are involved
with... or even starting your own online business to tap into the
multi-billion dollar market for online goods.
Just be careful - once word of your skills spreads, you may FIND
YOURSELF UNDER HIGH DEMAND!
But getting started in web design can be a confusing affair these
days. So many people tell you that just to get started, you need to
learn things like _HTML, CSS, PHP, AJAX, XML, SEO, Photoshop_... and
that's just to get your first page up. Just getting the books to teach
you these things could cost you hundreds of dollars. Try taking a few
classes, and _ you could be looking at thousands!_ And then there's
the months of trial-and-error needed to learn them.
Many people are more than happy for you to continue with the myth
that web design is complicated, and best left to "experts" who will
charge you for their services.
But there's some good news:
This is because, in the last few years, some exciting developments
in the world of website building have meant that you no longer need to
go through this ordeal. You no longer need to be a computer programmer
or graphic designer - ALMOST ANYONE WHO'S COMFORTABLE USING THE WEB
CAN NOW BUILD THEIR OWN SITES. If you can send an e-mail, or write a
Word document, you probably have the level of "expertise" needed to
use the latest tools.
It really is easy to get started - you just need SOMEONE TO TELL YOU
EXACTLY WHAT TO DO, in the correct order.
You're probably wondering what these developments are that allow you
to do all this. The answer is the invention of... CONTENT MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS.
In ye olden days, if you wanted to design a webpage, you would have
to open a text editor and start coding everything by hand in "HTML".
This meant that you needed to understand how to write everything in
code... and also took you a long time. It was like having a telephone
conversation in morse code.
Desktop software made it a lot easier to write this code
automatically, allowing you to edit the pages, but this wasn't
perfect. You had to find a way to get your pages onto the Internet,
and making changes wasn't always easy to do.
Someone had the brilliant idea of simplifying the site creation
process, and making it all run through a web browser. The webmaster
could log on to an online control panel, then create a site by
choosing options. It was no more difficult than checking your e-mail.
_Content Management Systems_ (CMS) were created to help people that
were non-technical update their own sites. Programmers would set up
the template, and then allow others to add the content. In a large
company, the IT department would set up the website, then each
department would add their own news through a web browser.
You'll learn how you can use a simple control panel to build your
entire site... just point and click
In the past few years, these basic CMS programs have developed to
allow the users to not only change the text, but PRETTY MUCH ALL
ASPECTS OF THE SITE. Without needing to know anything about coding,
you can add images, video, contact forms... even change the site
template. All through a simple online control panel, that you can
access through any web browser, anywhere on the planet!
The power of CMS systems to build websites is no secret. Many web
design companies now use these systems in place of their old methods.
They can now build their sites in a fraction of the time (but still
charge their clients large fees for their services).
But if it's a lot simpler than it used to be, can't _ anyone_ start
setting up their own sites using these systems?
THE ANSWER IS YES!
Setting up a site can now be done in just a few minutes. And we're
not talking about some cut-down system where you can choose from 10
templates, and up to 5 pages. You'll be able to set up a site that is
indistinguishable from those that took expert designers weeks to
develop.
But the problem is that these tools don't solve all your problems.
Getting a site built is just part of the puzzle.
There are still critical things that you need to understand in order
for your site to succeed. Without the right help, you may fall into
one of a number of difficulties.
Typically, these problems include:
MISSING KNOWLEDGE
Most "web design" courses, teach you how to build a website on your
own computer. But they don't answer the next set of questions - like
how to get your site published online, how to register and set up a
domain name, or how to prepare your site for the search engines. It's
like asking someone to teach you how to drive, then all they do is
show you how to start the engine. You really need someone to step you
through what to do from beginning to end.
CAUGHT UP IN CODING
A lot of courses ask you to learn a lot of coding before you even
start to see any results. Unsurprisingly, this puts off people... so
they give up too soon and never see results, convinced that web design
is "too complicated". However, there are ways to get websites up and
running without any coding... then learn coding later, if you want to
expand your skills.
NO VISITORS
You assume that once you set your site up and running, people will
just show up. It doesn't work that way - you need to understand where
your visitors are going to come from. There are many simple things you
can do to dramatically improve the number of people that come to your
site.
LEGAL PROBLEMS
The web may appear a unruly land where anything goes, but the fact
is that there are numerous legal problems people can get into going
online. This is most often because they use other people's text and
images without permission, but there are other pitfalls that may
result in a letter from a lawyer landing on your doorstep.
WRONG/EXPENSIVE TECHNOLOGIES
Many people think they have to go out and spend thousands of dollars
on the latest web design and graphics packages. The fact is that you
can pretty much get all the software you need for almost nothing
online... if you know where.
To make sure you still get the right mix of knowledge in order to
not only get a site online, but to make it successful, a new course
has been created...
Become Your Own Webmaster is a online video course that will show
you step-by-step how to set up your own sites in a fraction of the
time it would have taken a few years ago, and without any of the
programming/graphic design skills you would have previously needed.
You'll be able to set up fully-functional professional-looking
websites for yourself, or others, quickly and easily. YOU'LL BE AMAZED
AT HOW SIMPLE IT IS... and will want to create sites again and again!
The best part of the BYOW method is that it takes so little time.
Once you know what you are doing, it will literally take you less than
30 minutes to set up a new site from scratch.
The "traditional" web design approach can take days. But despite
saving all this time and energy, you'll still end up with a site that
looks the same. If you want to build sites for other people, you can
still fairly charge clients the same fees - since they'll not be able
to tell the difference - so could earn upwards of the typical fees a
professional web designer would charge... but for a fraction of the
work.
But, even better, it's all done with video - meaning you can avoid
those heavy text books you were dreading. You'll be shown screen
captures of exactly where you need to click and type to get things up
and running.
