I've been developing websites for almost 20 years. If you have questions like these, I can help! Should I try this myself or hire a professional? What tools do I need? How do I sell products online? How do I make money with my website? Can I create a website without buying expensive software? How do I design a website FAST? How do I market my website? Is a BLOG a website? How do I put video on my website? What is website hosting? When will search engines find my website? OK, I've found a site I like - but now what? Can I make my website a subscription site?
I have over 20 years of practical experience with web-related issues, and some military computer training. I've worked for a computer manufacturer, and own a small technology company specializing in web-design, hosting, and internet media production. I am the webmaster of several sites, and e-newsletter editor for Rotary District 6760 which is comprised of 65 clubs throughout middle Tennessee.
I'd like to say a diploma from a revered educational facility hangs on my wall, and perhaps someday it will. In reality, everything I know has been self-taught, much of it done so in the hallowed halls of that venerable institution called "The School of Hard Knocks". (I have taken courses at a local community college, and received military computer programming training as well.)

I think it would be a good idea to get it. A few years ago the company I was paying to maintain my servers had a machine melt down. All of the sites I had hosted there were gone. Instantly. They claimed
You are more or less correct - A dedicated server is a physical machine, and you'll have 100% access to all of the memory and storage it offers. A VPS is a software replica of a machine hosted on
Hi Kee - Should you expect the source code? If it's not in your agreement, you shouldn't expect it - but I don't think the developer would mind providing it at no charge. Regarding the schedule
Hi Linda. I'm not sure what Yahoo charges, but what I do know is that you'll have to pay SOMETHING just about anywhere you go - You can buy software to design a site, but you'll still have hosting/email
Hi Quinn - great questions. Without a doubt, many websites have been built that way. I like to use Wordpress a lot, and the plethora of themes available makes it very easy to find great themes and
