It's a dream of every site maker to build a site that looks like Microsoft, Bukisa, Digg, and other big professional sites but they fail to do this as they either don't have the required skills or they don't have the best site builder for free.

Yes! It is true that you too can create a professional of yours for no charge at all.  Even i buld my site http://www.home-remedies.freecp.net/ with this technique only and without a single penny.

The solution is BlueVoda Site Builder which is available for free and lets you create a site like a paid website builder lets you create.  But there's one limitation to it that you can't publish your created page to your own free host.  But don't at all worry about it.  I will tell you one technique by which you can host your created pages with your own free host or paid host.

  1. Just download it from http://www.bluevoda.com/ and install it.
  2. After this Open it and Select "Open a New Blank Page".
  3. You will get a blank page on which you can easily add any element.
  4. See the top bars and left bars to find out the elements available.  You can also go the help to find out the function of every button.
  5. Now the first thing comes the template.  You can set any image as your site background by going to View -> Page Properties.  Under the box, select Background and set your desired image.  You can even set colors.
  6. Now you can add elements like text box, tables, navigation bars, link lists, image gallery, forms, and even you can create your own free logo like any other site.
  7. You can add flashes, any downloadable item, any media and lots more.
  8. After you are complete with the creation of your first page, you can publish it to your own host as i have said.
  9. Go to File -> Preview In Browser -> Default Browser.
  10. Now you can view your page as it will appear to others on the net.
  11. After this, follow these steps.
  • Press Ctrl + R and type there the command "  C:\Documents and Settings\YourUsername\Local Settings\Temp  " and in the folder click on the " preview " folder.
  • There you will find your entire pages, images that your site page contains.  These were stored here when you previewed your site.
  • There you will find preview.html page, just rename it to you desired name that you want for your sitepage like index.html or articles.html.
  • And now upload all these files to your host account and see the site.
  • For eg.  if you renamed the above file as index.html and your site name is sitename.com  then type in the url  http://www.sitename.com/index.html and see your page.
  • You are done.  Your professional looking site is ready for no charge at all.

Further, note that when you make changes to your site and do not add any new element to it but simply make changes to the site text , content , then you can simply copy the html code from View -> Page HTML and copy the entire code to your respective site page.  But if you add new elements, then you need to upload that element which is created which can only be done through above procedure by copying the files from preview folder.

Imprtant Note : Make backups of your BlueVoda folder that is present in " My Documents " folder on a regular basis so that in case of system crash you can resume your work from where you left it.

I hope that my article will be helpful to you all.  If you liked, then you can visit my stie which is also created with Bluevoda  url :http://www.home-remedies.freecp.net/
