An Interest Group Website

Having your own web presence is quite simple to setup. You may have free web space with your internet provider, in which case you only need to develop your site and upload it. Normally this type of free web space does not allow you to have a unique domain name for your site (like www.mysitename.com).

Firstly you will need to choose and register a domain name, then create your site, then find a place to host it. Use the web resources found in FindWebHosting.com to gain an understanding of all the steps.

In depth marketing of your site is not necessary (unless of course you choose to market your site). For an interest group you may want to try and get your site listed on sites that have related subject matter or local guides sites. For example if your site is about a local music group there maybe local music web sites that you might try to get listed on.

You may choose to add a community aspect to your site for people who have like minded interests. This can make your site come alive and become a popular destination. The web is at its best when used to develop community and share knowledge.
