If you don’t know what a website is, you probably think it’s hard and complicated.

It's not... and I will prove it to you

Let me tell you what a website is – we can call this definition the idiot’s Definition

When you type something in your computer using you personal computer and save it on your hard drive, then only you and the people who use your computer can acces that file – That’s your personal file

When you type something at work and you save it in a shared location on your companies file server, then anyone who works for that company can access that file if they have the proper permission – that’s an intranet file (within a compnay’s network)

A web page on your web site does the same thing except that file (web page) is stored in a computer (web server) that is connected to a huge network (the internet) and each file (web page) in your directory (web site) can be accessed by anyone (web surfer), anywhere in the world, who has access to that huge network (the intenet)

The EZ Aproach to understand this website stuff

- A website is just a directory in a computer

- A web page is just a file within that directory

- A Web Browser is just a program that can read the web pages and display it in your computer monitor

- A Domain name is just an easy way for people to remember the name of that directory (website)

- A Domain Registration Company is more like an internet post office for domain names – they know where it is located

- A Domain Hosting Company – Well, that’s the computer I was telling you about. That’s were your website is located.

That wasn't too hard was it?

Trust me you don't really need to know much more than that. all you need to concern yourself with is...

- How to create your directory (website)
- How to create the files (webpages)
- How to get the wold to see those files

That's how you make money on the internet

Wasn't that easy?
