SEO (Search Engine Optimization)
SEO is my favorite method of getting traffic. It is free (except for your work) and it offers a long term solution for getting visitors to your site.
Study SEO before you begin creating your actual site!
Simply having a site is not enough; the site MUST have traffic! SEO techniques will provide your site the best chance in getting ranked well in the search engines. Since there are basic structure issues which affect SEO, it is important for you to learn basic SEO before beginning your site

I'd MUCH prefer you begin with DreamWeaver. You simply cannont as easily build a robust Internet business with a free web editor. But if you must begin with a free one, I have NVU tutorials here:
NVU Tutorial #1
READ THIS : NVU has changed their download link. You can now download the NVU program direct from our membership site:
Download NVU Here
NVU is a free, open source web editor. NVU is a great tool start your Internet marketing career with. However, you'll eventually need a more robust editor such as Dreamweaver. Although MX 2004 versions are becoming more and more scarce, it is worth checking eBay for possible copies. If you buy the CS version, you can get a substantial discount if you go through an educational outlet such as www.CampusTech.com. In order to get the discount, you must be or current student or education employee or know someone who is and will help put the purchase in their name.
The NVU install file is in this video. If you install NVU with that file, open this video and began watching it at 1:20. The first part of this video is about how to download NVU from their website; you won't need that info if you use the file I provide on this CD.
NVU Tutorial #2
NVU is a basic editor without any fancy bells or whistles. However, it will get the job done for a small site! It is quite simple to create a basic site with. As your site becomes larger, or as you add multiple sites, it will be cost effective for you to upgrade to a more robust editor like Dreamweaver.
NVU Tutorial #3
(Final Basic Tutorial)
An effective site can be created with only tables, text, and images. CactuCanyon.com is a perfect example!

HTML Tutorial
I can't write HTML well enough to create a page without an editor; I have no need to with a web editor like NVU or Dreamweaver! I am able to read HTML and edit it when need be. This video shows you how to easily teach yourself HTML basics over time.
Bloated Code
If you are considering using some type of downloaded template or an online creation tool, check out this video first.

| Meta Tags Meta-Tags text file
Meta tags are often misused. Some forms of misuse can do more harm than having no tags at all! |
| Open New Browser, No Follow, No Index Tags
These tags will come in useful at times. |
| FTP Tutorial FTP Program Install
NVU has a built-in method for transferring files from your computer to the host (FTP). Dreamweaver does also, but I don't use its built-in feature. I use a basic FTP program to move my files from my computer to my hosts. This tutorial shows you how to use a free FTP client. |
| Upgrading Later to Dreamweaver
I demonstrate some features of the Dreamweaver program I really like. I highly suggest upgrading to Dreamweaver as soon as you can. THE GOOD NEWS: All the files you create in NVU will work perfectly with Dreamweaver when you do upgrade.

Below are examples of meta tags which can be pasted into the <head> area of each page. Each page must have unique descriptions and keywords!
<meta name="description" content="Put in an exact description of this page.">
<meta name="keywords" content="keywords, keywords found here">
For example, notice how they are inserted into the following code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta name="description" content="Put in an exact description of this page.">
<meta name="keywords" content="keywords, keywords found here">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
