Now this is not easy if you have no experience what so ever and it was one of my biggest challenges when I first started in this business. Today it is much easier because there are a lot of free templates available.

But if I have to advise here, your best bet is to work with wordpress, because it’s a really simple system to use and they have full online tutorials.

Now there are 2 wordpress sites:

• Wordpress .com
• Wordpress .org

Wordpress .com is the blogging platform and with in minutes you can have a site up. The only problem is your domain name will look like this (yoursitename.wordpress .com). For blogging purposes its great, but if you are creating a site around a product you want to sell then you need to host the site on your own so your domain name looks like yoursitename .co.za.

For this you need to go to wordpress .org and download the software and then upload it to your server. Might sound complicated but as I said they have full online tutorials so if you just read the instructions you can have your site up in half a day.

What I also find nice about wordpress is the choice of templates they provide, so you really do not have to be a designer. You simply download the template you like, put it on your server and then just activate it. I promise it’s really simple and it will save you a lot of time and money. You can find theses templates on wordpress .org/extend/themes.

Anway have fun with this, because it really is the fun part of this business and remember if you have any questions, just post them in the comments section.
