To create a web-site

We use the free html editor NVU, to create our website pages. Select website template to use for your niche site from OSWD (Open Source Web Desiign).

1. Download and unzip chosen template.
2. Copy all the files and folders of the website template into the folder labelled with your niche site name.
   All your changes will be done to this new copy of the template so the original files remain unchanged for when we want to use the template again for another site.

The first page you will create will be index.html. This is the first page the visitor will see when they visit your site.
How to create website template page

1. Open NVU web authoring Program
2. Open index.html in website template folder
3. Use main keyword phrase for the name of your site. “Your Niche Site”
4. Use topic keyword phrases selected in previous lessons for pages in your site.  “niche-keyword-topic-one.html”

   >> Link to http://your-niche-site.yourdomain/niche-keyword-topic-one.html
   >> Repeat for “niche keyword topic two” etc. for all 5 topics

My Comments
Once you have set up this index page it will become a template for all the pages you create for your site. There are a couple of ways to do this:

1. Use Windows Explorer: right click on index.html, select copy then navigate to folder where you want to create copy; right click in folder, select paste or depress  cntrl & v together.
2. Use NVU Program: Once you have made all the changes and saved the file; Go to file menu and select Save As..
   Navigate to the folder where you want to save it and click save.

You will be creating your niche-site on a sub-domain so the URL of your site will be:
http://your-niche-site.yourdomain/
