Do it yourself website?:

On: By: admin

Do it yourself website?

I need to build a website and want to do it myself. I have worked with html and flash before and am an engineer, so I’m not afraid of the technical aspects, but I’m definitely not a full time web designer and don’t want to spend all of my time starting from scratch. I also don’t want to spend $5000 to have someone build it for me.

I would like to know what options are out there for a weekend webmaster. I need something that is relatively quick to set up, but more importantly, update. I have worked with html templates that are available, but these are not easy to add images or videos as necessary. Maybe there are some good ones out there I don’t know about?

I have seen these ‘blog building’ sites and those look interesting and easy to use, but there always seems to be something critical missing, like the ability to embed a video.

Basically, I’m a tech-savvy individual, but not a seasoned web designer, who is looking for ways I can implement a web site myself. I need a professional looking website which is not too difficult to edit or add content.

Thanks for all the suggestions!
FYI, I already have a domain name, so any service I use would have to let me use that.

Am I too ambitious for 14.?:

Am I too ambitious for 14.?

I am 14 and my brain is always thinking of something or an idea or a situation and it’s outcomes. It gets to the point when I have a hard time focusing on things for too long, usually not more than an hour is given to things i’m doing, so I can go do something else. This is hard because I want to do way too many things. As of the writing of this I do all of these things daily. Skateboard, youtube gameplay commentator, football practice for 3 and a half hours, I run a review blog, build computers, code, “try” to design t shirts, edit for other youtubers, try to game but I don’t for very long because I always feel like theirs something better to do, and “try” to invest in stocks (which hasn’t been the most successful thing iv’e ever done). I also have a 3.83 weighted GPA and a 3.5 unweighted GPA. I don’t mean for this to sound like i’m bragging, but I do too much and it annoys me, I need some input on what I should do. As of right now I really want to build computers, I have a business plan already written, and a way I can start it for almost no cost other than licenses and a .com. I can code and use photoshop so graphics and the website will not have to be paid for. I have always had little fragments of ideas that never quite reached the light such as my t shirt business in which I spent well over 100 hours researching designing and just learning about the “t shirt game” in general. My mom is very supportive of the things I do, and is willing to help me, but I just want to be able to have an idea and run with it. Any feedback would be appreciated. Also some things listed above I can’t do every day such as the computer building. I do what I can out of each of the items mentioned on the list previously if I have the resources needed for them.

Affiliate marketing on blogspot?:

Affiliate marketing on blogspot?

Hello,
I live in Australia and I am just wondering if there are any affiliate networks which allow you to use a blogname.blogspot.com site (ie a sub-domain blog rather than your own top level domain website).
I’m looking to make some money on my blog, other than adsense, and the only affiliate network I can find which doesn’t specifically ask for a website url is clickbank (however I don’t want to promote ebooks).

Does any one use an affiliate network on their blogspot site that they could share with me? Any other comments/suggestions appreciated!

Thanks in advance
