What are tips on attracting visitors to a website?

What's the best way to create your own website? (+10 points!)?

  • I'm currently making plans for creating my own website (.com) and was looking for the cheapest solution possible that gives you the production tools you need. I was wondering, are most websites these days made by "website wizards" or whatever they are called, that you just configure and tweak, or do most websites involve a lot of programming? (I am currently a CS major but need to budget my time so website providers that give you a lot of flexibility and control over how your site works, but minimizes programming would probably be the best solution). I'm basically looking for the most direct way to establish my own website with its own domain name. Probably the most complex service it will need to provide is that (privileged) visitors with an account/password to my website should be able to edit the webpages. There will also be a need to make this visually appealing. Any tips out there are appreciated. Thanks!

I would probably advise you to use whatever your web host provides. There easy to set up and no programming is involved. But unfortunately designing flexibility is not that good. If your just starting something simple is fine. but if you want a good website...programming is the only way.

It depends what you mean by 'the best'. In terms of final outcome, Adobe Flash is probably what you'll get the best results with, as most HTML websites are similar code-wise. However for a flash site you need to create all the artwork and animations yourself, but this can be easily done as long as you have some basic knowledge of the adobe creative suite. As for code, I made a fully-functioning flash site without knowing anything, and learned action script as I made it, and it was actually fun. The coding is simple and easy to grasp, and you can make some really unique stuff with flash, this is why I'd favour a flash site.

yuck, no flash... Flash is over, going away, learn HTML 5, or google CMS
