Making a website is easy! Making a good website is Hard!
Here are some tips I want to share with you that I am sure it will help you making a better website.
The first thing you need to know is what kind of website you want. If you want a website about business, you must have in mind that the final objective of the site is to make the sale. Don't waste time with unnecessary things such as making a very complex design or writing tons of content that will distract the user from the goal.
The best tool to make a business website is Word Press. Host it on Godaddy and they even install it for you!
A Business Website must be simple and effective.
A Personal website on the other hand should be more focused on you than in your user since you are talking about yourself and not about the user.
To design a simple personal webpage I suggest you to use Google Page Creator. This program is very simple and intuitive and free, provided by Google so you can be sure it is good. However don't expect to make a great and big website using this tool. It's suited only for simple websites and for webmaster with little or no experience.
If you don't want to make a complete website by yourself you have always other solutions such as Squidoo Lens for example. You can create webpages called lens that will rank really high on Google. Those pages already have Adsense ads integrated that will share 50% of the revenue wit you and you can also add eBay products, Amazon products or iTunes musics. There are also more affiliate products you can add and they pay you 50% of the revenue!
If you don't like Squidoo or Word Press you can always use Blogger. This tool is hosted by Google and it has Adsense ads integrated you can put to make some money from it. Don't expect to become rich just using Adsense on your small blog but it should be enough to make about 5$ or 10$ per month.
You have some templates you can choose already on Blogger but if you are lookig for something really special I really recommend you to search on Google for something better. These templates are free and webmaster make money from the Advertisements the website has. Don't worry they won't get poor.
The same is true for Word Press. It has millions of templates to choose from on Google. The only problem is choosing the one you like most since they all seem too many templates to choose!
You can easily download one hundred templates from a simple website.
Word press has something Blogger doesn't have: Pluggins. These pluggins add extra functionalities to Word press such as Google Analytics integrated and much more.
