The design and navigation of a website are very important because visitors will immediately judge and critique everything they see from the look and feel to the pictures and content. There are a lot of templates out there for free and for a price. Once you have a template you can change the words, logos and pictures to create your personalized look. That way there's a good base and good navigation already set up.

Creating Visits has been building websites for a long time for many different lines of business. Each has a unique way of becoming its own special website that the business owners love and end up making a lot of money from. The web design is only half of the reason website make a lot of money, the other half comes from search engine optimization. It's basically finding out how search engines choose the website that ends up in the first 10 results.

Think of your website like a book that has a title and many chapters and within those chapters are more pages with titles and content. If your book is about vacations you shouldn't expect to show up for "seo services" or "web design". Search engines put a lot of weight on each page title and most definitely the website domain name. Type in "Creating Visits" and you'll find www.creatingvisits.com first which means you should choose a good domain name that you can show up for right away.

Back to web design. If you're trying to learn about web design then you should do a few things.

First: Learn HTML. Sounds like a life time of learning doesn't it? It's not.

Second: Get a template. Make sure you use the actual html to make changes.

Third: Pull up the website and it will say Home, Services and Contact Us at the top. Find it in the HTML surrounded by >Home< and change it to whatever you want.

Forth: Save and Refresh your website. See the changes you made and continue to play around with it. You can search online for "html code for paragraph" or "html code for bold". It will always tell you to surround the word with start <> and end . There are also many videos that will show you the basics and you can just copy and paste them into your website.
