Here is a helpful hint that you need to start implementing as soon as possible in your web building career. Use a different email address for every website you build. If you are like me, you built like 20 websites before you were actually comfortable with the website building process. This requires a different user name and password for each website. Also some free website providers will send you emails with offers to upgrade and a different email for each free website helps keep things organized. This is also a great tip for your communication that you receive from visitors to your website. Most people will start their email with "I would like to talk to you about your website", and it seems they never name the site by URL. So to avoid confusion, associating a different email for each website, you can figure it out right away. What I recommend is to use a free email provider like FastMail.fm. That way if you decide to abandon the free website, you can abandon the free email address too. More free email providers are listed HERE.

I have received several emails asking me what kind of website would I build if I was just starting out? Hands down, I would build a gaming website. The advantage of building a gaming website is two-fold. One big advantage is that you will have a captive audience on your web page. They have to stay there while they play the game, so you can surround the game with different advertising campaigns and links. The second advantage is once you are done building that page, it is pretty much done forever. You do not have to update it again like some topics as the game never changes. There is a website that you can get the easy to use copy and paste gaming script for free with enough games to build a huge gaming website - http://websitegames.org.

As you are sharpening your skills in free website building, you have probably ran across the term "Google Page Rank". If you are not sure what this is and what this signifies, I will try to explain. To understand it and use it to it's full extent, you need to download the Google Toolbar for Internet Explorer. After installation, look for the little blue wrench in the toolbar. Click on the wrench or in the dropdown box, choose "options". Then in the left menu, choose "Tools". Make sure there is a check in the box that says "PageRank", then click save. Now go to the website BuildFree.org, and on your Google Toolbar, you should see a rectangle that is about half white and half green.   When you hover over that in your toolbar, it will tell you the Google page rank of the page you are viewing. The higher the page rank, the more important the web page, and in theory will show up higher in Google searches. This information is useful to webmasters in several ways. The most important being is when your own web site gets page rank. Do not be disappointed if your site only gets a page rank of 1 or 2, that is a proud accomplishment, and it may take months or more. You can also use this information in choosing other websites to exchange links with, and ideally get links to your site from pages with higher page rank. CLICK HERE for ways to increase page rank.

Ok, you are working on your web page and it looks great except it just "needs" something. Sometimes to finish off your page you need a small widget or free addon. Website add-ons can be something as simple as a visitor hit counter or may be as extensive as an interactive message board. You can also create entire web pages with free widgets like the "Random Game Widget". Most web site add ons can be gotten free like guestbooks, music players, calculators, amber alert tickers and all kinds of weather graphics. There are 8 pages of free website addons and widgets on my other site HERE. You can even get the BuildFree Bits widget free so you (and your visitors) can read these helpful hints right from your website or blog HERE.

Dealing with negative feedback on your website - Everyone would like to get great emails telling them that their website was the newest best thing. The sad truth is we are all constantly leaning a new skill (building websites) and there will always be some idiot out there that has to write that nasty email telling you how crappy your website is. The rule of thumb is to just ignore such emails and realize that the idiot found your website somehow - and that in itself is a measure of success. To retaliate would probably only escalate the incident to an unneeded level. Just bite your tongue and be the professional webmaster you strive to be and realize there are jealous idiots in cyberspace just as on the street.
