Welcome To The-Website-Teacher.com

If you want to learn how to create a website then you have come to the right place. Making a website is not as hard as most people think it is, in fact it is actually very easy to build websites. Even though I say creating a website is easy or not as hard as you may think, if this is your first time making a website then without help you will likely have trouble. I just want to quickly mention that creating a website by hand coding it using HTML and CSS is not needed, yes that is one way to create a website but you can learn how to make a website without having to code any of it.

There are web applications now that allow you to easily and quickly make a website, these web apps actually manage your website for you and in most cases look much better than anything you could code by hand.

Step 1) Domain Name And Website Hosting

No matter what type of website you want or what method of creating a website you want to use you will always have to buy a domain name and website hosting account. No website on the internet can be made without having a domain name or website hosting account, this is an absolute must.

A domain name is something like www.yourwebsite.com and will act as the link/bridge that people will use to visit your website. Once you learn how to make a website you will need a website hosting account to actually store all your website files. The domain name will direct people to the location of your website hosting account which will then display your website on their computer screen.

It is usually best to get your domain name and website hosting account before you actually create your website. Here are a few links to help you with this;

  • Getting Your Website – This is a tutorial that will show you exactly how to sign up for a domain name and website hosting account. Doing this will secure your website, which is recommend to do as soon as possible, everyday millions of domains are taken so every day you wait the domain you want may get taken.
  • How To Create a Website Using Joomla – This is a tutorial section that is dedicated to showing you exactly how to create a website using Joomla, plus has a tutorial page on getting a domain and hosting for Joomla. Joomla is an extremely popular web application that basically creates your website for you. This is definitely worth checking out for beginners, the first page shows you what Joomla is (with a video tutorial).
  • How To Start a Blog – This is a tutorial section that is dedicated to showing you exactly how to create a blog. A blog is still a website so it also requires a domain name and hosting account but all that is explained in this tutorial section.

I just want to let you know that most my “how to create a website” tutorials or most tutorials on this website contain video tutorials also so that making your website is as easy as possible.

Step 2) Create Your Website

So after you have your own domain name and website hosting account your next step is to learn how to make your website. As I mentioned above I have many tutorial sections on this site that help you in the different ways to create your website. I call them tutorial sections as I have grouped together all the tutorials you need for the different ways of creating a website. Each of the different sections have their own menus on the left but you can always access any page of this website from the dropdown menu at the top.

Learning how to make a website whether it’s a blog, content site, forum, etc is so easy when you are actually shown how, which is exactly what I do, show you how. So here are some links to tutorial section to show you how to create your website;


For a general content website, which is the most popular type of website, I strongly suggest learning how to make a website using Joomla, for an example this website you are on right now is built using Joomla.

Once you have finished creating a website the next thing you should do is focus a lot of time into increasing the amount of traffic to your website. Website Traffic is basically the amount of visitors/people that visit your website. This is actually not a simple task, building website traffic takes a lot of time and you need to know what you are doing.

I don’t recommend trying to build traffic to your website before you have actually finished creating a website, don’t rush anything make a quality website first. However once you have finished making your website you can start promoting it to increase your traffic. You can find tutorials to help increase your website traffic in the Website Promotion section.

Step 4) Making Money From Your Website

Finally after you have learnt how to create a website and you have also started generating a decent amount of traffic to your website you should start implementing money making methods. I know it can be tempting to plaster your site with different methods of making money while you are creating a website but you should not do this. It is recommended that you build a quality website first and then at least get some traffic coming in before you implement any money making methods. You don’t want your website to look like a money grab right from the get go, even before you are getting visitors.

Remember that making money online from a website is not a get rich quick scheme and takes time and work, so spend time making a quality website first. Once you have finished creating your website and you have started receiving visitors you can check out the Making Money From Your Website section.
