Web Sites That Stand Out

by Carol A.

The Wide World Web has information that some of us aren't aware of. Months ago, I needed help with designing my web site. One that would stand out. Well, it took awhile to find. I checked other pages by writers to get some ideas.

Some web portals will help you design your own pages in minutes (which is great for beginners).

As a writer of mostly adult fiction work, I wanted something bold and colorful. Any good search engine will take you to the right sources by using certain key words. But, use the ones that relate to your particular field.

Zdnet.com is my favorite one. They have loads of information from web designing to rating sources. The price isn't bad either. Especially, for those who are on a budget. You can pay as low as $8.95 a month to setup an account. I compared them to another service that I no longer use under the name, 20m.com. The only problem: they had plain average designs. None that stood out. We all want pages that will draw people to our sites. And it doesn't matter if you're a writer or not.

Now, would you like to check out my site? Well, all right. But it needs more work done. So far, I only have one page. There's a leopard's tail at the bottom. Moving as if its waiting for a reply. None of my stories or poems are shown. I rather work with individuals on a one-on-one basis. Leave a message. Let me know what you think about my site. My first eBook is on sale at: http://www.publish4u.com.

Thank you very much,
