Web Site ABC's

A Low-Budget Handbook for Folks
Who Think They Are Computer Dummies

by Phyllis Wheeler

From: Phyllis Wheeler, the Computer Lady from Motherboard Books  

Dear Friends,

Astonish anyone from previous generations.  You can set up shop in the world's marketplace without leaving your home. It's an opportunity that's available to YOU, right now. You can join the many folks who are taking advantage of it.

To be in business on the Internet, you don't need a building. You don't need employees. You don't need all the other headaches of a traditional business.

  But you do need to learn your Web Site ABC's. 

I personally have had an Internet business for more than two years. I have done it all myself, on a shoestring, and I'm going to share with you how I did it.

Guess what! It's easy.
You don't need to be a geek.

The Internet community is full of non-geeks who have mastered the simple tools needed.  You can do it too. Here's why I say this is easy--I teach you only what you need to know.  There's a whole lot of geek-stuff out there that you don't need to know. In this 98-page e-book I use step-by-step instructions with illustrations of the computer screen. Your satisfaction is guaranteed!

I am a mechanical engineer and homeschooling veteran who set out to teach computer skills to my kids and others at a homeschool co-op several years ago. Since there wasn't a curriculum, I invented one. I taught programming and Web site creation along with some other skills.  Through my Web site at MotherboardBooks.com, I've been sharing the curriculum with others since late 2003.

So I've done plenty of instructing on computers, and now I am going to explain to you, a novice, exactly how to put up a Web site, and how to market on the Internet.

My approach is different from others, which offer to do the work for you in the form of template Web sites.  With these, you start out a "dummy" on the subject, and when you are done, you are still a "dummy!"  These will leave you in the position of needing to make adjustments and not knowing how.  You'll have to depend on the company that sold you the templates to make the adjustments. And what are they going to charge?

No, I am aiming for COMPETENCE for you, my student. 

And along with competence comes the ability to do this job yourself, on a shoestring.

This plan saves you hundreds of dollars.

It saves you $454 over the first year, to be exact.

This plan is dramatically less expensive than other methods for novices. In fact, a typical set of tools for starting a Web site and running it for a year costs $519--that's 8 times as much as the $65 for the plan outlined in this book.

 (Cost for Web Site ABC's plan: the $39.98 cost of the book plus $25 per year for domain registration and hosting.  For other methods:  $60 for a set of templates, $80 for Microsoft Front Page to modify the templates, $299 for a year of 1ShoppingCart.com, $8 for a year of domain registration, and $72 for a year of hosting at $6 per month. That's $65 compared to $519.) 

But this isn't really comparing apples and apples.  With the more expensive method, you don't get the Web site tips and tricks as well as marketing guidance I give you. 

So why not take the plunge?  You may think that creating Web sites is only for experts.

You may actually be afraid of doing anything new on your computer. You may be afraid you will break something.

That's how W. felt.  But she wanted to supplement her family income. She is too embarrassed to admit to the world that she was a computer dummy, so she doesn't want me to use her name.  But even she in just three weeks got a Web site up and running using this book.

"If I can do this, anyone can," she says.

How will you do it?

You, my student, will learn how to use Web site creation software.

Here's the best part--you don't have to spend $80 or $100 for Front Page, or $300 for Dreamweaver!  You will learn everything I learned when I set up and operated my Web site using free software based on Netscape Composer, now called Nvu.  It's similar to Microsoft Front Page.

What's more, your satisfaction with Web Site ABC's is guaranteed.  Here's my guarantee:

Here's what's in the book:

·        How to make your own information Web site (and get revenue)

·        How to make your own sales letter Web site (and sell something)

·        How to make a blog to promote your other sites

·        How to make an e-book to sell

Here's what's NOT in the book: 

• how to sell on eBay. 

If this is your desire, you can skip my book and get one of many offered on this exact subject.

This book also contains instruction on marketing basics for Web sites, such as:

• How to optimize your Web site for search engines
• How to market your site using newsletters and Adwords

If you are putting up an information Web site full of links and articles, I show you how to gain revenue from Google Adsense and from affiliate sales.

I wrote this book for some close friends who have been bugging me to tell them how to get onto the Internet.

Now I am sharing the information with you.  This is your opportunity to take the plunge into this new medium. You can have your own Web site.

Imagine sitting at your computer and pulling it up, your pet project.

Imagine making a little adjustment, then uploading it so everyone can see.  This is your future! You can do it!

From: Cindy Rushton Love the new ebook! Great job! I am sure that I will use this for years to come. www.CindyRushton.com  www.homeschoolblogger.com/CindyRushton

From Barbara Frank: This e-book includes far more information than just how to make an information or sales Web site; it also shows how to attract visitors to your site and what to do with them once they get there. For non-techies like me, the way Phyllis walks readers through each step is especially helpful!   Barbara Frank www.cardamompublishers.com www.homeschoolblogger.com/BarbaraFrank

From Barbara Coyle This e-book was EXACTLY what I needed! The many examples and illustrations made it possible for someone even as computer illiterate as I am to understand what to do. It was a thorough treatment of the topic presented in a fun, fresh way. I loved the frequent encouragement of "You can do it!" Although I generally avoid computer-related tasks, after reading this book I could hardly wait to get started on making my own website. Thank you for this great resource! Barbara Coyle Author of Wisdom from Proverbs: Devotions for Homeschooling Moms

From Rachel Ramey: What a terrific idea; I wish I'd had this book when I was getting started!  Phyllis combines an introduction to HTML with instruction in web design software, as well as a look at shopping carts and blogs.  Even better, she shows the reader inexpensive tools for these tasks.  Any "do-it-yourself" online business owner will appreciate this e-book. Rachel Ramey www.homeworksbest.net

From: Janice Campbell: The Computer Lady has done it again! Phyllis Wheeler has taken a seemingly complex subject, and made it accessible. Internet Commerce (aka e-business or e-commerce) is a vibrant, growing field, but in order to provide goods or services online, a company must have a website! There are many books and programs available to help set up a website, but most are too complicated for computer novices, or too expensive for a start-up venture. Wheeler’s new e-book, WebSite ABC’s, bridges the gap between the beginner and a first website. Using detailed text instructions, coupled with screen shots, Wheeler walks the reader through the process of learning exactly what is necessary to get online in just hours. She covers simple HTML, how to find and use a free web design program, how to create an information or sales site, how to find affordable hosting, how to tie in a shopping cart, how to make an e-book, and much more. The greatest strength of WebSite ABC’s is its simplicity. The information presented is adequate, but not overwhelming. Using Wheeler’s information, anyone with internet access can create a simple, income-producing website. The casual tone and “let me show you” warmth of WebSite ABC’s removes the intimidation factor from unfamiliar terms and concepts, and leaves the reader with a “can do” feeling. Information in the e-book is applicable to both PC and Mac. While Wheeler’s example screenshots show a PC, she includes keystroke instructions for the Mac when necessary. WebSite ABC’s is a remarkably friendly introduction to the world of e-commerce. Now there’s no excuse for not setting up a website!
