Content management systems make creating, running, and organizing websites and blogs a breeze! I have used three content management systems heavily over the years and I wanted to create this Content Management System Comparison to help others choose which CMS they should use.

To have success with anything online you need to attract visitors to your website. Writing good content and having a nice looking website is great…but that doesn’t mean you’ll attract visitors. You have to actually put in some work to do this. Luckily though it’s not all that hard!

Here’s the top 10 Ways to attract visitors to your website:

1)  Search Engine Optimization (SEO) 

One of the things that confuses people the most about making money online is how to make money with a website. I’d say this is the most common question I get from friends and family because most people don’t realize all of the options there are to monetize a website (or blog). So with that said, here's how to make money with a website:

1) Pay Per Click Advertising like Google AdSense

Choosing a domain name is a very important step when creating a website because it can affect how your website does in the SERPS (search engine results pages), how easily people will remember your URL, and what people’s first impression will be of your site when they read your domain name. Fear not though!

If you want to use a website development application you have many choices. The two most popular website development applications are Adobe Dreamweaver and Microsoft Expression.  These applications write HTML and CSS code for your website. You can actually create a whole website with these web development applications. However, while you may read online that you can use these without knowing any HTML or CSS…I disagree with that. If you truly have no knowledge of how HTML or CSS work you’ll be very limited in what you can do with these applications.

My favorite way to build websites and blogs is with website content management systems. Now if you don’t know what a CMS is…it’s basically just a collection of tools that allow a webmaster (you!) to create, modify, organize, and remove information on your website with ease. These are fantastic programs that save a ton of time and let you do things only advanced computer programmers can do (but without all the time and knowledge).

If you're wondering how to set up a blog then you have arrived at the right article! Luckily you have a couple options and it’s not as hard as you may think. It really boils down to whether or not you want to use a free shared domain blog (like a blogger.com blog) or pay to host your blog on an outside web server. Both have their pros and cons so read on to learn more!
