The only problem is since you have no idea what launching a website involves where do you start?
A good place to start is a name. Your given name works best. In the event it is not obtainable due to the (URL) being taken by someone else other options are available. Examples include if you are a senior or if you hold a title such as Ph.D.
Once a name for the domain is chosen it will need to be registered. There are many wonderful Web hosting programs to take care of this. Some include 1-on-1,Go-Daddy, and Yahoo!.
Assuming the chosen name is accessible and you encounter success in registering your domain a plan of what you want your website to be think of the following question: what do you like people viewing to find out about you?
This will, as you would expect, lead to the content you will include within the website. In the end, the material you write will pull readers in at first and keep them coming back. The best material to include is anything you may think someone else may find interesting. Examples of content would be ideas you are passionate about, your life story, hobbies, jobs, family, etc.
Now we will need a format to present this information. Infinite ways exist to arrange the contents. Regardless, the one item which needs to be established is home page. This is the first page a viewer accesses and gives visitors and idea of what your site contains. Some good things to add are your picture and links to everything else that is included.
No hard rules for material, although within the sections enough information should be enough to get to know a person. Popular choices include professional background (breathe life into your VC), Fast Facts (public associations, and schools and universities attended). Add a resume for kicks, or a video of yourself to complete the package.
Whew! All done! Now the fun begins on maintaining the website by updating with new content……..
I maintain a personal web site if you wondering …..http://www.tonygreen.name
