Personal Websites -How to build Them Personal websites come in all sorts of flavours from simple websites with someone's CV, hobbies, likes and dislikes to special event websites like birthdays, graduation and wedding websites. Personal websites are different to business websites in two important ways.... Firstly, they aren't usually monetized, and secondly they aren't normally optimized for the search engines. Personal websites that are used for providing information about a persons likes and interests, events like weddings, births etc have, in the last few years, been replaced by Blogs. If you are Interested in building a personal website to discuss your favourite football team, a wedding, birth etc then I would recommend that you consider using a blog (Weblogs). Because they are non-commercial sites. Personal websites can be made very cheaply and even for free . The only major consideration being whether or not you register your own domain name. Remember domain names aren't just for businesses they can also be used for individuals. Personal domain names are becoming more common and one day we may all have one. Personal Information Although you may be placing personal information on the site you should be careful when sharing details like birthdays, mother name, pets names etc. Your personal Information can be used for identity theft and you would be surprised at how little is required, and what constitutes personal identifiable information. Getting Started In order to build a site you need some basic equipment, software and knowledge. Just what is required is covered in starting a website. Note: If you are completely new to building websites then make sure you take a look at the free make your own website course
