Hey all, I recently made my first website, www.easyonlinemoneymaking.com, and while it may be functional, it is quite ugly. I don't have any professional software such as FrontPage or DreamWeaver, I used Nvu to create this site. Anyone have some advice for what I should do to go about making my site more attractive to visitors? Thanks in advance.

Well, I have to agree with you about your site being ugly. Some people might tell you to
take the time to learn html. But, if you don't have the time to do that, there are tons of
resources on the web for free templates and their quality is much better than they were
a few years ago.

You can find plenty on Google...

On of my favorites is...

Better yet, try FREE ones that don't use tables for layout like these:

Yeah, that's the one that I used before I was able to make my own layouts. Once I found that site, I really didn't need to look any farther.

I was in the same boat as you at one time.... I use to take the free templates that I would find and play around with the codes. Figure out how everything worked. I didn't have any special programs when I first started.... I had a free version of corel draw and notepad. Learning html is all about trial and error. http://www.gimp.org/ is a good free program to start with. Start small and work your way up when you feel more comfortable with html.
