Do you have an enjoyment of graphic design? Is your interest and your enjoyment of graphic design so extreme that you want to actualize it by figuring out how to create a website of your own? If you do want to start up your very own graphic design website, the instructions for how to go about this process are very easy, to say the least. Basically, if you have an Internet connection, some free time and the determination that it takes to see this through to the end, you can make your own graphic design website. The following will provide you with the exact steps that you require in order to succeed at making your own graphic design website.
You will require a good ISP to host your website for you, but before you choose just any ISP, you should compare various ones to get the best deal. Be sure to compare the terms of service, available space, the reputation and the accessibility of every ISP you think about using.
After you have seen to choosing the best ISP for your money, you can move on to the other issue of picking the best webpage editor for your website-building needs. You see, a webpage editor is a tool that will allow you to actually see your website as you are building it; another bonus is that you will be allowed to skip learning about programming languages such as HTML and other stuff. In addition, this webpage editor will also provide you with specific directives with regard to adding links to your new site, changing backgrounds of your new site, adding images to your new site, naming your new site and creating various sections of your new site.
As you are establishing your new site, you will want to doubtlessly add some nice images to it to add some personality to it. However, you are not allowed to just take any images because that would be theft, since there are copyright issues. Instead, get permission from the owner of the images, or, better yet, make your own images right on your own PC by using a paint program.
At this point, you are at the point where you want to upload the webpages of your new site. To succeed at this, get a File Transfer Protocol program and open it up. After you have opened it, be sure to log into the actual host server by typing in your username along with your password. Finally, gain access to the directory where your homepage can be found. At this stage, you can start to upload all of your web pages and your images, taking great care to obey the instructions of the FTP program.
