How to Do

 

 

 

Here you'll find how to customize the templates in order to build your site using them.

I put here a step by step simple way to customize your first template. I hope that this help you to work with web templates.

Web Templates

Download the file

Well the first thing you must do is download the template you choice, into your hard drive, to make your work easy, open a new folder and save in it, create this with a name you remember and make sense for you. This is a Zip file, in other words a compressed file, so in order to work with it, you’ll need an unzipping program to open it. WinZip is the program for Windows customers and Mac users need Zipit to unzip the files. Download here if you don’t have WinZip, ad here if you need Zipit.

 

Install  WinZip or Zipit

Start the program and go step by step into the installation wizard.

 

Unzip the templates

Go to your file and double click on the file and go to evaluation service, and click on extract the files, take care to extract them into the same folder you opened before.  After that you have a single HTML index, main or home file, and some  more  HTML like about us, contact etc, some graphics in GIF or JPG format, one tip, don't change the names of the graphics, or they won't display on your web page, if you have more knowledge you could change later if you want  some names that make sense for you, but at this time if this is your first work, don’t do it.

 

See the Template

Well, you want to see how the page looks.  Open the file index or main or home page it into your web browser, and see what content you want to change.

 

Edit the page

If you are a Windows user you could do this with your Notepad, this could be find at: select start go to Programs and after that Accessories, and finally Notepad. For Mac Users use SimpleText or TeachText.

For this go to the HTML page displayed in your browser, click on tool bars View and Source, immediately a text file is opened this file contain all the information of your index template.

Add or delete as much text as you like. But, don't remove any of the < HTML > tags - the tags that appear between the greater than and less than symbols.

If you modify these tags, you are changing the look of the template, this could be made in a near future when you understand more about the HTML codes and tags.

If you are using an HTML editor like the one we offer free, or such as Microsoft Frontpage or any that work What You See Is What You Get, WYSIWYG you don’t need to do this, you only open the template in your browser and click on Edit, Select All, and Ctrl Copy and Paste into your HTML editor, at this time you see all like looks into the browser, and you are ready to make any changes you like to the content, in this way you don’t need to worry about delete any important tags or HTML codes.

Make whatever changes you want, remember to add your contact information, and save your work, replacing the index file.

You could improve your words, to sell whatever you like in your site, I'll recommend you that read the ebook Make Your Words Sell, or read the  free e-course about the same topic, the only course online that teach you how to pre-sell and after that how to sell.

At this time you are ready to make your web site available online.

 

Upload the Templates

If you have your own hosting service you need to use a program to FTP your files.

First  open your FTP software and put your ftp address, user and password.

After that open your file where the template is and select all, search the upload function and wait until all the files will be upload, according with your host, the files need to be upload into htdocs, or whatever instruction you have, remember: the files should upload to the same names, including the file extension (.htm, or html, gif, .jpg etc) the graphics are linked to the HTML file, in this order the ideas you need to upload all the graphics  and the HTML file.

Upload the files to the same folder/directory on the web server.

Test your site, all the links, copy the name of the site into your browser and see how it looks if all is ok. You are finished, if not you need to start again, until all is working fine.
