pads. Here is a quick list of some of the basic software
and services you'll need to get you started making an Gambling
website:
Graphic editing software
You are dealing with a visual medium. A program that views,
resizes and converts images into web-friendly formats will
be a staple in your stock of software. Some good programs
are Adobe Photo Shop, PaintShop Pro and ThumbsPlus. Like
most of the software suggested, you can usually find links
to downloadable versions at your favorite Gambling Webmaster
Resource site.
HTML editing software
HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language and is the code
or language that websites are written in. HTML is easy to
learn and there are many tutorials at resource sites that
teach you the language. An HTML editor is a program that
already knows the code. Many HTML editors are WYSIWYG. WYSIWYG
means "What you see is what you get" and is the
type of computer program the lets you drag and drop images
and text into a window where you can see exactly how your
page will look as you build it. Some HTML editors are Microsoft
Frontpage, Dreamweaver and CoffeeCup Free HTML. Most webmaster
say Dreamweaver is the best.
Webhosting
Naturally, to have an Gambling site, you will need a place
to host it. Do not make the mistake of using the personal
webpage account (furnished by your Internet Service Provider)
to host your gambling site. As a rule they do not allow
such content to be served from their domains. The same rule
applies to non-Gambling free hosts like Geocities, Tripod
and AngelFire. If you cannot afford to pay for a domain
name or the cost of webhosting, it's best to begin with
the many Gambling free hosts available to you. In fact,
starting out with a page on a free host is the superlative
way to test the cyber gambling waters without a financial
investment. If you wish to spend money for webhosting, there
are many that are affordable and reliable. Browse your resource
site for a paid host that suits your needs.
