FAST, Easy Websites - No Experience Nessary!

How to Build Your Own Website in UNDER 8 hours!  

Freelancers absolutely MUST have their own website.

You will use your website to:

  •  market your services
  • showcase samples for prospective clients
  • create your own e-mail address (vs the very unprofessional looking hotmail addresses many freelancers use)
  • market yourself internationally by having an Internet presence.
  • make money by showcasing other products and services

These days your clients EXPECT you to have a website!

I can hear you groaning! A new learning curve. All that horrid technology! That's no longer an excuse.  ANYONE can build their own, professional, money-making website in 8 hours or less, without any design or technical skills. That's right, no HTML, no CGI, no FTP, no PHP, no Javascript and no PhotoShop!

Xsite Pro has to be the slickest piece of software since sliced bread. I am a long time user and devote of DreamWeaver. And though DreamWeaver is relatively easy to learn, you still have to know about how to build a website, how to figure out key words, how to to search engine optimization. XsitePro does all that FOR you.

I built a website in less than an hour from SCRATCH.  I kid you not.  Most people could build a 5 page website in a few hours ... and that includes time spent watching  the excellent learning videos.

You can add your goodle adwords account in less than 5 minutes ... and once you have it entered into XsitePro  it will take you seconds to add the Adwords code to other niche sites.

Here are some of the HUGELY useful features I found:

  1. An affiliate link storage facility so that when you want to place an affiliate link you just right click and select and bingo, the link is in place. This alone is a God Send ... I have so much trouble keeping track of my affiliate links, I often just give up!
  2. Install Google Adsense ad codes with a point and a click.
  3. Break a long page into multiple pages and place navigation links automatically.
  4. Install a breadcrumb menu (obviously named after the Hansel and Gretel fable) that shows users where they are (eg, Home -> Hosting-> resources ) and lets them to click on the links to return to previous pages or home.
  5. Create site maps and link pages  in alphabetical or hierarchical view ... Automatically!
  6. Search engine optimization
  7. Hundreds of templates for articles, sales and product pages.

... and MORE ... way more!

If you need webhosting ... especially if you are going to do multiple niche sites
