Do you need a website for your business but think it's too time-consuming or out-of-your budget? Or maybe you already have a site but it's out of date and you don't want to spend a lot of money revamping it.

Luckily today it's easier AND cheaper than ever to build a website and maintain it. In this 3-part workshop you will learn how to construct a site and then come up with the content that goes in it. At our first class Mark Stringham from Register.com will give step-by-step instructions on how to use their software so that you'll have your websites set up that same evening. The next two sessions will deal with creating keyword-rich pages so that the search engines can send lots of traffic your way. Unsure about what colors, fonts and images to use? Bring your questions and you'll receive valuable input, feedback and suggestions for the content and look & feel of your site.

Here's why I like Register.com:

-Lots of templates to choose from - organized by categories
-You can add unlimited pages to your website
-User-friendly software that's easy to learn
-Do-it-yourself - no more paying web developers every time you need to make change
-Great tech support - 24/7 live customer service
-Their set up wizard makes the whole process effortless
-Low price **$12.95 a month - includes FREE domain name!**


FORMAT
Class 1 - 5/27/08 - Tutorial on how to set up your website using Register.com's software
Class 2 - 6/10/08 - Create content for pages: Home, About Us, Bio, Press
Class 3 - 6/24/08 - Create more content for pages: Product/Services, Site Map, Add-ins, Other

Very important! After each class there will be homework assignments that you'll need to complete before the next session!

Meeting fee: $15 per class, or $40 for the 3 sessions (a $5 savings)

***Snacks and refreshments will be served***

Who attended?

    •  This was the first of the three. The introductory power point presentation was clear and comprehensive. Mark, the rep from register.com who gave the presentation was engaging and easy to follow. Carmina interjected at times to make sure that everyone's questions were being addressed and that nothing was being taken for granted. It was conducted in an easy, interactive and practical manner.I would have liked to go through the screens a bit more thoroughly, but I suspect that everything he covered will be reinforced during the next 2 sessions. So far, so good! 
    •  It really helped me to stop and focus not just on the website for my business, but my business as a whole. I also learned to look at websites in some new ways and even more critically than I did before. Already a very useful class in just one session. I look forward to the others. 
    •  Very informative and helpful. The presenter, Michael Stringham, was very easy to understand and patience with questions. He knew a lot about the subject and very comfortable speaking to a group. I think it is great that Register.com is giving attendees the opportunity to "play" with their own website for no cost for the month and that followup meetings have been scheduled.
