WEB DESIGN

I am having a hard to putting together a website, because i know what i want but i dont know where to start or what kind of content to put on the website..

I prefer a blank page instead of the themes they give, an im on a tight budget so i need to put something together cheap or free an i have a domain an hosting already...

Either hire someone at Fiverr for $5 to create a custom header/graphics for your html site; or install Wordpress and choose one of a gazillion free themes available on the web.

As for content for the site: if you are already making money online, then you should have the knowledge and skills to teach someone else - and thus would have the basis for the content of your new site. Simply map out a plan of how you personally have earned money online, then break that plan down into smaller action items - that will give you a starting point for the content and then incorporate that content into whatever chosen monetization business model you intend to use for this new site.

Hmm... a few thoughts:

- do NOT write any content for your website: with your spelling and "style" you will scare away any potential visitors!
- what the f*** do you want to teach others when you don't know anything about this industry?
- go and learn the basics before you attempt to "help others"!

  Sorry, but I support Istvan Horvath's advice. Maybe you are adopting a 'casual writing style' here, but from reading your posts, your fundimental capacity to string words together is virtually non-existent, plus your very basic word choice (an ?? when you appear to mean 'and',) and grammar are 5th grade level at best.
  
  No matter how casually you may be writing here, you just would not be able write as badly as you've done, with a basic grounding to guide you. :rolleyes:
  
  Thanks

I appreciate the advice you all are giving me, because it lets me know i have to tighten up my writing skills, but i beg to differ with you when you said:QUOTE No matter how casually you may be writing here, you just would not be able write as badly as you've done, with a basic grounding to guide you. IN THIS STATEMENT YOU MADE TRYING TO CORRECT ME SHOWS A BIT OF WEAKNESS IN YOUR WRITING GAME ALSO... WHAT DID YOU MEAN I JUST WOULD NOT BE ABLE WRITE AS BADLY... THANKS ANYWAY CAUSE NOW I AM GOING TO WORK HARD ON MY WRITING AN MY CHOICE OF WORDS, BECAUSE IF I DID NOT HAVE ANYONE TO CHECK ME ON MY WRITING I WOULD HAVE GOT TO COMFORTABLE WRITING ANY TYPE OF WAY I WANTED INSTEAD OF WRITING FOR OTHERS... THANKS

WordPress works very well, either self hosted, or a selected free version.

Either hire someone from fiverr or freelancer to create a template for you or use ewen chia's free website builder or something similar. Don't use dodgy templates provided by hosts.
