below are just some basic advise based on my experience in designing websites.(1) Name Your Websiteestablish the title you will be using for your domain name & the website, make sure you keep in mind that, the name should be easy to remember, and easy to spell. people won't visit your site if they can't remember the address of it..so keep it short and simple as it can get,if you are using a subdomain ,try even harder to come up with a shorter and simple name. (2) Have a clear idea before you startThis is an important step to consider before you start the design process of building the website,you must Have atleast a clear idea of what you want the site to look like, what you want it to acomplish,and what main features you think the website will be centered around. Decide on stuff like,layout,number of pages,features(chatrooms,forums .etc),expected amount of visitors, & what programming language & software you will use. Try to write all of your these down on Paper, it will be important reference during the design process...also make Google your best friend, for answering any questions you have during this stage.any questions you have can be answered by just searching for them on Google(it aint hard) pS( I recommend Visiting websites similar to what you are building,this can give you an idea of what you need to accomplish for your own site).(3) Design the Sitethe first step in the design process is to make sure you have covered everything there is to be covered.after this,do a check to make sure you have all Information & Resources aviable,these may include: "any required": 1)Tutorials & how to's 2)Software 3)Scripts 4)The things you have writen down in step 2 As long as you have everything above, written down & completed, the building of the website will be the easy.Simply use the information & knowledge you have gathered to start building the website. ................................................................................. ...................................... hope its helps......also you are welcomed to add whatever you, think needs to be added to this ,Tutorial/advise.

I would add considering very seriously learning and applying SEO, as it is the most important thing to bring visitors in besides a good quality content.

all are verry good examples of ways to get a good site going! make sure spelling is good too..make it available in different languages..cuz for my site i have people from china visiting it.. but on a tip forum around here somewhere about google ad it said put tutorials for somthing! this is verry true also! if you have goodle ads, they scan your site for key words and the better the word the more you get for a click, i will try to find that tip page n post it here because it was verry good!

good advice, i would also say havinga fair ammount of content before you launch the site is good. everyone is turned offby a nicely designed site that has a bunch of "under construction" pages.

to have a succesfull site, your site first must be looking good and no errors on it..tahts one thing.. second it must have a nice layout and your site must offer something to visitors so they have a reason to come there..its basically like writing an essay, a formal one, where you need your thesis statement and all that other crap..lol it's similar except here you are actually using pictures and other stuff to make it appealing to readers.
