Anyone can have a website, but is that website going to be seen by anyone?

There is so much more that needs to take place when building a website. Most people have no idea. Websites need to have good content, proper keywords, good hosting etc...

Do you really want to know how to create a website that is steps above most and one that will make you money? If you answered "yes" then you need to follow the rules of CTPM in order. CTPM stands for:

Content

Traffic

Presell

Monetize

Good Content will get you alot of traffic. Preselling is when you build a relationship with visitors, not treating them like another digit to your bank account. People visit this site looking for ideas to improve their lives, so that's what must be focused upon. The last step is monetization. This should be the least of your concerns.

Pick a niche that you know something about or at least a little bit about. This will make building content alot easier. Don't worry about doing anything else except writing good content. I know you are saying "I can't write", but don't let that get you down. Do some research on the topic you chose and pick out some key topics and write about that. It doesn't have to be award winning, just keep writing.

Once you have Content the the rest is very easy.

If you want the rest to be very simple in a step by step format you should check out SBI (Site Build It). Domain name, hosting, analyzers, keyword research etc are all included at one place. They'll even help you find a niche.

SBI over delivers unlike anything I have ever seen.

This site will help if you are an experienced website designer or someone who knows nothing at all. I've never seen anything that even comes close.

When you get that profitable site up and running you can send me part of your profits. My address is 4934 East St... Just Kidding. But really do check out the site. You'll be so impressed.

There are a number of different browsers that you must compensate for when designing your webpage's in any format (CSS, tables etc.), some of the most common browsers are : Internet Explorer 6/ 7, Firefox and Safari. The main issues that arise with CSS design is that all browsers interpret CSS differently, for example Firefox does not understand some of the CSS commands that Internet Explorer does and vice a versa.

One of the main issues I have found when designing with CSS is a problem with margins in Internet Explorer 6. I found that when using a float on a div tag that also had a margin set, the margin would actually double and then knock the whole pages layout out. After numerous late nights and an insane amount of coffee I finally found a solution to this double margin bug. By inserting a simple line of code the double margin no longer double ! That solution is as follows, by adding this line of code to your CSS div tag 'display: inline'.

Another problem I have found with CSS in Internet Explorer 6 is a problem when trying to define a div tag that has a smaller size than the base font size. This problem again can be fixed with a simple line of code this time all we need to add is the following line of code to the div tag: 'font-size:0px'. There is also another solution to this problem that should have the same effect, because the div tag auto stretches to compensate for content overflow adding 'overflow: hidden' should also resolve the problem.

Unfortunately I have been unable to cover all of the cross browser issues that you may experience when designing with CSS, but most of the problems that you may encounter can be resolved pretty easily with simple trial and error. Happy designing!

The term colocation is used in the computer industry to describe the use of a specialist data centre that is run independently and hosts file servers for a number of different companies.

Independent data centres of this type are also called colocation centres, 'colos' for short, or the more descriptive 'carrier hotels'. These data centres are set up by specialist firms with expertise in information technology, to serve the needs of numerous clients. That way, the clients can simply outsource this service to a colocation supplier and let them take care of everything for them. This is much more sensible that trying to do it yourself, for a number of reasons.

Cost is an important consideration. If you were to invest in a state of the art data infrastructure yourself, you would have to spend more than a specialist supplier who could broker wholesale deals for IT services on your behalf which could save you a great deal of money in the long run.

Economies of scale come into play too. A professional colocation supplier will have invested in large, industrial-strength systems which are bigger and more powerful that any individual firm would ever need. This means that you are getting the benefit of a more powerful system, and you can buy in to it for a low relative cost.

Time is another element of the equation. Why re-invent the wheel yourself, when a colocation supplier has data solutions at their fingertips. These would include solutions to your immediate requirements, and also remedies to any future IT problems that you don't even know you have yet!

Access to expertise is a further advantage of using colocation.
You will have the benefit of advice and support from experts in the field who have experience of looking after many different types of requirement across numerous different industries. And this access will usually be arranged on a shift system, so that you can always speak to someone at any time of the day or night on any day of the week, including weekends and public holidays like Christmas and New Year's Day.

In addition to gaining access to IT systems for networks, servers and data storage, colocation firms will also give clients the ability to interconnect with numerous telecommunications suppliers and providers of other network services. Because colocation firms look after many kinds of IT need across a wide range of industrial sectors, they will be able to suggest packages of services after doing a survey of your particular needs and current situation.

And because the colocation firm is an expert in their field, that means that the package they propose for you will have the capability of being adapted as the needs of your business change. Upgrades can be discussed and arranged quickly with people you trust, who know your business. This means that clients can then focus on their core business, without having to divert from what they do best and try and become a mini-expert on IT data systems themselves.
