How To Build Your Own Website From The Comfort of Your Own Home
Have you ever thought of building your own website? Then
you've come to the right place because I can teach you how to build
your own website. Best of all, these classes are given in the comfort
of your own home without having to attend classes in an unfamiliar
environment.
Why pay up to $750 (or more) plus domain name registration and hosting fees? My fee for this complete instruction block is just $6200
and includes two bonus benefits of a one-year free domain name
registration and a one-year free domain hosting account. That is a $145 value
included with the price of this entire 10-hour course. You may also opt
to pay-as-you-go at the conclusion of each session. Why pay hundreds of dollars for additional software requirements? Because
I can show you how to use your existing and open-source resources,
you won't have to pay additional hundreds of dollars for
expensive software
applications such as Frontpage, Dreamweaver, or any of the other
expensive
Macromedia Studio applications.
