Build Your Own Websites For Free

In this tutorial I will show you how you can build your own website for free using the website service Yola. This tutorial includes instructions on how to create a 'Testimonials' page and how to order the menu. Like many popular free website services, Yola allows you to upgrade your website to a domain name for a small fee if you so choose. If you require a blog to generate traffic, I would recommend creating a Blogger website, otherwise Yola will work fine for a stagnant site. Follow the instructions below. Yola's phone support sets it apart from many other free website services.
