Written by Chris Ryerson


Have you been asked to build a website for your church? Building There are thousands of people building websites everyday. It is becoming increasingly important for many small organizations and groups to build their online presence. This helps in getting their ideals, goals, and mission out torepparttar general public. Therefore at an increasing rate many of us with computer skills are asked by organizations to put together a website. This happened to me about two years ago whenrepparttar 118428 school I worked at asked me to build a website for them to help advertise their special arts programs. The only problem with this is many of us do not haverepparttar 118429 skills norrepparttar 118430 time to build and keep up a whole site. It takes a lot to berepparttar 118431 webmaster of a website and it is no simple task. However often it is too expensive to pay a web designer to build a custom site for an organization and sorepparttar 118432 task often falls to an armature or even some one with no experience. This is what happened to me withrepparttar 118433 website that I build for my school. I didn't haverepparttar 118434 first clue about website design or html. So that forced me to learnrepparttar 118435 basics and use what tutorials and templates that i could find online. I made it throughrepparttar 118436 experience and like many others found that it was a lot of fun. Therefore I started building a bunch of other sites. I would bet that this happens to many. This article will helprepparttar 118437 beginning web designer or even volunteer set up a basic Church website. However since there is not a lot of money to spend onrepparttar 118438 project and often people have really unrealistic ideas about what a website can do we will give you some good guidelines and tips to get started. The first thing that you need to have a real good idea about is your level of experience with building websites. It is really important to be honest with yourself andrepparttar 118439 church that you belong to in order to create a realistic expectation. If you are a beginner then it is fine to admit that, we all have to start somewhere. However, if you are a beginner don't plan on building an elaborate SQL php backend that can be dynamically updated or anything like that. Below I have provided some basic definitions of skill level that might help you assess where you are at. Beginner - You are this level fall anywhere in between never setting up a site to having built a site or two with an online website builder or a pre made website like those provided on Yahoo, or AngelFire. Intermediate - If you have either set up a website with an online builder and customizedrepparttar 118440 site some or built a website using a template then you fall intorepparttar 118441 intermediate category. Advanced - You have set up many sites before and often use templates for ideas but tweak them so much they hardly resemblerepparttar 118442 template when you are finished. How you choose to build your website depends largely on two factors, your time commitment torepparttar 118443 project and your skill level. These two factors have a strong correlation between them. Meaning if you have lots of time and are a beginning you will be able to build more advanced websites. However if you are an advanced designer and have very little time to build another site then you will want to go with something very basic. If you fall on eitherrepparttar 118444 not enough time or not enough experience end ofrepparttar 118445 spectrum then you should really consider buying a template to either make your site or at least get you started. However if you are atrepparttar 118446 intermediate or advanced level and have time then you should forgorepparttar 118447 template and create a really cool design yourself. Some ofrepparttar 118448 tools that you will need to build any website are included below: Graphics Software - The standard for creating website is Adobe Photoshop. Photoshop has a great add-on product that comes withrepparttar 118449 software that allows you to slicerepparttar 118450 images you create and export them as html. html editor - This can be anything from Microsoft Notepad allrepparttar 118451 way up to a high end WYSIWYG editor. WYSIWYG stands for What You See Is What You Get and it means thatrepparttar 118452 program doesrepparttar 118453 html coding for you. Some editors that you might want to look into would be (ranked from least expensive to most) Coffee Cup HTML Editor, Microsoft FrontPage, Macromedia Dreamweaver.

Fishing for Fortunes. Scam!

Spelt phishing, but pronounced as above, this despicable act is an effort to batter your bankroll or commandeer your cash. To put it simply, you can get emails from account administrators, which strongly urge you to update details attached to that account. The issue, though, isrepparttar pretence of such mail.

You may not even have such an account as referenced. It doesn’t come fromrepparttar 118427 account provider. It can use false S.S.L. references, to present an illusion of trust and security. It can prompt for immediate action on your part, alleging false log-in’s by persons unknown, and from countries unknown. If action is not taken, they can impress on you, thatrepparttar 118428 account will be suspended or closed. Indeed, anything likely to work can be fabricated, to get you torepparttar 118429 webpage suggested inrepparttar 118430 link or hyperlink. Noterepparttar 118431 word “suggested”. Likenesses to company logos are used to re-enforce “credibility”.

In fact, these phishing attempts actually look pretty good or realistic. So much so that any qualms of guilt or stupidity, experienced by a “conned party” are groundless.

Experience, specific education or forewarning, is all that prevents this type of charade from widening its base of “victims”.

The goal is to get you to type in your details, complete with credit card number andrepparttar 118432 rest can be guessed. Some damage is also absorbed byrepparttar 118433 organisation or company being misrepresented and they can do little about it but warn their customers what to watch out for, and issue security instructions. Indeed, it is from accounts at reputable companies that most passing trade learnrepparttar 118434 correct or most secure procedures. It is therefore important to read any material that they offer.

Generally though, reputable companies with a mind to preserve their integrity will tell you to log-in at their main page and proceed from there. Not through a link specific to your account!

Hyperlinks can maskrepparttar 118435 true domain that you’ll be brought to, withrepparttar 118436 text linked to www.anydomaindotcom (example, only), a replica or fake page. Only going to secure pages where one believes that “https” will do it, will always help but wholly unreliable. The “s” is an indication of a secure page, but are you atrepparttar 118437 right domain? Place your mouse overrepparttar 118438 link andrepparttar 118439 domain attached to such a link, should show itself. Viewingrepparttar 118440 source code is another way but some knowledge of it is necessary.
