Building a website is possibly one of the most brain-challenging computer processes you will ever go through. If you're new to the whole idea of designing your own website, this can quickly become overwhelming. Here are some tips to help you with the creation of your very first site.

Collect your thoughts

Why do you want a website? Assuming it is because you would like to monetize it, you need to think about who you would like to arrive at your website. In other words, what kind of traffic do you want, and who is your audience. You need to spend a good deal of time thinking about this, as your conclusions on this will lead you to decide how you want your website to look.

Decide on a layout

Here is where you are going to decide exactly how you want your website to look. Do you want pictures, or screenshots, maybe video. Where will the text go? It doesn't sound very high tech, but laying this out on a piece of paper first is very helpful in visualizing what you want and where to put it. There are various templates out on the internet available for free, if you do a search for them. Even if you don't use any of these templates, they will give you some good ideas for your very own unique site.

Write content for your page(s)

Deciding on the reason why you have a website in the first place will dictate what content you will be including. Perhaps you will be reviewing various products, or including pictures of products using affiliate links. Whatever you include here, be sure to come up with a jazzy headline which includes your keywords. Remember to include your keywords in your headline, the first paragraph and the last paragraph. You're looking to include from three to seven instances of your keywords. Any more than that will be viewed as spam by the search engines, and any less than that and your site may not get noticed.

One of the biggest concerns with writing content for your site is the need to know HTML (hyper text markup language). Although it is a fairly simple programming language, there is still a learning curve here, leading to delays in the creation of your site. There are many free sources for HTML code online.

Choose a well-known hosting company

Don't cheap out here. Have your website hosted by one of the bigger, well-known names. There are many out there; do your homework here. Ask around, look on the net for reviews, check out the various packages.

Once you have chosen your hosting company, you're ready to either upload your site via FTP or perhaps your hosting company has an online builder, which will simplify things greatly. Either way, you're ready to publish your site. Congratulations, you made it. It is not a simple process, so give yourself a pat on the back, you deserve it.

Nat Nast shirts have become very popular due to many television and movie stars wearing these types of shirts. Mr. Nast started his company in 1946 specializing in bowling shirts. The company took off with the development of the “Action Back” style of shirt and has recently been growing extensively because of Nat’s daughters.

Nat Nast shirts are of very high quality and feature cool retro designs. If a person decides to purchase one of these high-class shirts, they need to be aware of 2 important factors:

1. A Nat Nast purchaser must be aware that fake shirts do exist. When buying from sites like ebay.com (or any other merchant online), always purchase from sellers with high rankings of feedback or reputation. Make sure pictures of the shirts are clear and realize that most of these shirts have high quality top-stitching. If the shirt does not have this top-stitching it could be fake. Also, if the shirt is a “themed Nat Nast” shirt, a description of the theme will be displayed in the tag and have a lower panel stitched on the inside of the shirt.

2. Sizing is another problem a Nat Nast online purchaser may have. If a person is not sure about the sizing, always contact the seller to get exact sizing. Normally Nat Nast shirts run larger than the average shirt. They run in the same size pattern as Tommy Bahama shirts. Nat Nast releases a line of shirts labeled “Nat Nast Vintage Fit 1946”. A person needs to be aware that this line of shirt actually runs smaller than the regular fit. We have noticed this to be big problem when people are purchasing these styles of shirts, so please be conscious of this.

When in doubt of these 2 important factors, always contact the seller. Email them or call them if either option is available. If the seller does not respond, please move on to another seller. Following these precautions a purchaser is sure to end up with an awesome looking, high quality product.
