Geek-Free, Commonsense
Advice On Building a Low-Cost Web Site
By Peter Kent
With all the talk of dot-com's in the world today, this
book is falling into your hands so you can be a dot-com
too.
The sub-title: "Geek-free, Commonsense
Advice on Building a Low-Cost Web Site" goes to show
you that the book is meant to help non-techies…like you
and I, perhaps?
Lauded as "the first book to explain the
entire Web-site creation procedure", it is divided into
three sensible sections. They are:
Preparation: This covers all the e-basics that
you should know about. You may already recognize much
of this material, but you never know when you'll chance
upon a diamond of knowledge. You need to glean.
Creation: It is always helpful to have more
ideas of what to put on your site and what NOT to put
on your site. You really don't want to look like a novice.
The author, Peter Kent, provides a multitude of ideas
for content and applications that will keep your visitors
coming back for more.
Promotion: Admit it. You need more ideas for
marketing. Ideas are what you'll get, too. Isn't this
going to be the most fun section of the book?
One the best things about this book is that
it came from Peter Kent. In certain online circles he's got
a respectable level of prestige for the depth of his knowledge.
He has 60,000 people that subscribe to his email
newsletter and welcome his helpful guidance each week. If
you send a blank email to subscribe-prwebnews@lists.dundee.net
you'll be automatically subscribed.
Poor Richard's Website has been recently updated
with fresh and timely knowledge in its second edition. Now
is as good a time as ever to start your own dot-com using
this book.
