I have few websites up and running, each for different purpose.My personal website is alphabox.co.sr and the rest are not appropriate to mentione , because I don't want to advertize.Anyway, if you want to make money you have to know how to MAKE (design...) websites.You need to ask yourself what do people want? What do you look for when you visit websites?People want proffesional designs (survey showed people trust more to companies with proffesional looking websites then those who have 100$ worth design).People want speed! They (don't we all?) hate when websites load for ever.They don't want silly useless animations that usually slow down the load process, except a small, flash perhaps, animation on top of the page (head) that represents the company (logo).They hate ads! No popups or stupid banner ads everywhere!Use quality material for your website.Use polls to get feedback on your products/services and not forums!Toplevel domain! I see people (small companies) with pro websites and a domain like mycompany.tripod.com! Use .com whenever it's possible.If the domain is already taken, try modifying it or use .net.At the end, it all depends what you do for living/what are you selling.Designs depend on a category, so mechanic would not have the same layout as a guy that sells porn.That's about it.Daniel Vukadinovic

I made my own blog last weekend. I got it up pretty quickly. I used existing open-source site-management systems like postnuke. With these you can quickly set-up a prof-looking site without having to design it from the ground up. There are alot of themes avaible for it. Its really easy and you can quickly make changes to your site with a php/sql management system. Very easy and it looks great.

My website is for my role play group on Yahoo (puppy forest). There I have biographical information for the characters. I also started writing the story from the beginning, but that sucks, and needs updating. I am going to add more stuff to it some time, when I have time. <_<

I actually can't decide between making a portfolio site and have all my artwork to showcase for others to browse around and view, or make a graphics site where people can request custom graphics to be done for them.I had a graphics site before and it closed down due to the sponsor (paid for the servers <_<) quiting the graphics arena, and I don't work so I don't have much money to spend and buy hosting, so that's why I need free hosting. I already have a name for the new Graphics site, just need hosting and my friend is going to help me out. Not really going to make money off the site because it's just a hobby and I do it for fun.
