When it comes to designing a website there are many different options. Each one has its own features and benefits that can help to achieve a better online presence. 

A static website design can be used when you only need a few pages and you don’t need to change the data. This type of website is easy to create and can be easily crawled by search engines. A difficulty is that the website would need manually updating which can be time-consuming. 

A dynamic website can be harder to design as it relies upon changes occurring to certain criteria for the site data to be automatically updated. 

If you need a store in order to make sales then you’ll need an eCommerce website. You will deal with the technical parts of the website as visitors should be able to access different areas of the website in different ways. 

When you are first designing or getting your website created for you, there is a lot to learn. Website designs are a very complex and with their various types of content, images and processes. One very important thing you should consider and incorporate into your website is to make sure it is responsive.

A responsive website means that when someone accesses your website on a smaller, mobile device, as opposed to a PC or laptop, that all of your content, images and processes show up and work as they should. You want your website to quickly adapt to a smaller device to where people can see everything well and is user friendly.

Having a responsive website is very important in a world where most people use their mobile devices for the majority of their shopping and researching. One way you can check your website responsiveness from a PC or laptop is the using the Google Mobile-Friendly Test.

Why do so many people choose WordPress for their website or blog? Well firstly, this free software is simple to use, offers all kinds of templates, and comes with support.

WordPress is famous for its “five-minute install.” Admittedly, if you have never, never installed WordPress, it may take you a little longer but that’s about right. For most beginners, the stumbling block is setting up a database. It’s easy! Support through your hosting is usually available, and most people have no hesitation using live chat to have the hosting firm walk through any seemingly rough spots! The next requirement for beginning a blog is a real username and an email address. The blogger puts this information into the signup page and gets a password almost immediately. The blogger just has to verify their email, follow the activation connection given and use the password given and the process is finished. The blogger can begin blogging from the dashboard and start creating some content for their site!

Monetising your website is a wise option, especially if you’re bringing in a good amount of traffic. Many bloggers have added advertisements on their websites on various different pages, and some of which have actually become full time bloggers with their only income coming from companies advertising on their site. This just goes to show how important it can be to consider running adverts on your website, and there are many different programmes that make it easy to do so, such as Google and Amazon’s affiliate schemes. One thing you do need to make sure if you are considering this step, is to ensure only really relevant adverts are displayed on your site. You don’t want your readers to find irrelevant information, whilst you should also make sure the adverts do not effect the speed and functionality of your website. Always be very cautious when making major changes to your website, and tell advertisers the type of content you’d like displayed. There’s no harm in creating a set of rules.
