How to Upload, Manage and Promote online ICT Projects for Social Change
As technology advances, it enables us to achieve more and more tasks without even realizing how
complex the jobs are. Creating a website by yourself is one of these wonders that has become a reality.
With the evolution of website builders, everyone can design a website and craft an impressive online
presence for themselves.
1. How to design a website
Your website should meet one main goal. All elements of your site should serve that overarching
purpose. For example, if your site's purpose is to inform people about safety precautions, you can
utilize different techniques to support your efforts, such as showing photos, videos, writing blog
articles, and more. Keep in mind that your visitors - as well as Google's bots - want to understand
what your website is all about in the blink of an eye. Having multiple main objectives is likely to
result in confusion, which can, in turn, increase the chances of your visitors leaving your page
prematurely.
2. Choose your website builder
Now that you have identified your goal, it is time to pick the right tool to reach it. A website
builder (also called a content management system or CMS such as wix.com) is a platform on which
you can create, personalize and publish a website.
3. Define your layout
You can pick a template on which to base your design. To make a template your own, you can
fully customize all its elements. Remove, add, or change details like text, images, and color. Each
template comes complete with the necessary tools, such as an online booking widget if you're an
instructor or a Google Map widget. You can pick between a multi-page template and a single-page
one. If your website includes a hefty amount of content, you'll probably opt for a multi-page site. In
this case, you'll include a classic website menu from which your visitors can navigate your site.
However, if you have less textual content to display, you may want to go for a one-page website. This
trendy option is a popular choice for landing pages, event websites, and other short-form content sites
4. Claim your domain name
To put it in simple terms, your domain name is your address on the internet.
It's what your visitors will see in the bar of their browser, right after the "www." Registering your
domain name is critical for your online success. Websites with a customized domain are automatically
perceived by internet users as more professional and trustworthy. When chosen wisely, a domain
name also helps search engines (like Google and Bing) to understand what your website is about. In
turn, this could positively impact your SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Last but not least, having
your domain name is the first step in acquiring your custom email address.
5. Gather your content
This includes your images, slogans, videos, texts, and more. Use your original materials as much
as you can to ensure you're offering valuable and branded content. Whenever you're not creating
unique content, make sure to acquire your resources through legal ways.
6. Make it accessible to everyone
Make sure to build your website hierarchically, using clear headers to define the different levels
of information. In addition, ensure that your site is fully operable with a keypad, write alt text for your
images, use heading tags, and more. There are many more things you can do to make your website
accessible - and all of them will also boost your SEO efforts.
7. Optimize for mobile
Smaller screens do not equal a smaller impact. With such an increase in smartphone and tablet usage,
you must ensure a seamless browsing experience across all devices. What's more, since Google
implemented mobile-first indexing, optimizing the mobile version of your site has become even more
important if you want to up your chances of ranking on page one of search results.
8. Ask for feedback
Whether you're creating an online portfolio, blog, or any other type of website, it's time to take a
step back and ask someone you trust to provide you with honest feedback. Be receptive to their
critique, and remember that you may not always like what you hear. To ensure a flawless final result,
ask a friend or colleague to check the following elements: Is the text proofread? Are the pages easy to
navigate? Is the mobile version optimized? Are all the links working? Are all the SEO elements filled
out correctly?
9. Publish - and get back to it
A site that looks like it's been lying dormant for too long is uninviting and can also seem
unreliable. Regularly updating your website shows that you're present, active, and up-to-date with
what's happening in your industry.
