Then I heard that you’re able to get this for free.
Even better, you could attach your own domain name to the site and effectively get free hosting.
DevHubis the site I’m talking about.
So I went to check it out and make my own revenue generating site.
For years I worked with various content management systems like Red Dot, Joomla,WordPressand Spectra.
All of them required some degree of programming to make a decent web site.
Here’s how you’re able to make your website.
First, go to DevHub and begin the sign up process.
It’s a very easy thing to do.
Just look on the homepage for the very obvious button.
Again, very easy.
As you might see, the site has a very distinct Web 2.0 feel.
This is where the money making begins.
I decided to use all of them, for testing purposes.
Sounds like a decent business model to me.
I just wish I had thought of, and executed, the idea as well as DevHub did.
Next, you pick out the physical layout of the site.
One column with header, two columns with header and so on.
Then you could choose your colour scheme.
DevHub has really simplified the process by making most of their colour schemes simple and limited.
By doing so, the site will always look good and take the burden of designing off of you.
Now that that’s done, you’ll be asked to read and agree to the end user license.
It seemed pretty straightforward to me, even though it’s a bunch of legalese.
You should read it for yourself and if you have any questions, talk to a legal professional.
I am not a lawyer, nor do I play one on the web.
On to the final editing of your cash cow site.
you might change the number of columns.
you might drag and drop elements on the page to reposition them.
The green shows you where the element will land if you drop it right now.
you’re free to tweak what the module will show.
In theSearch Keywordfield you might add more than one word.
I just went with one, for efficiency.
In the City or State field, I don’t know if non-North American cities or states show up.
Give it a shot, I’m pretty sure they would.
you’re able to add MORE modules or widgets.
Be careful with this!
Some people think that if they pepper their site with enough ads, they’ll get clicked more often.
What will happen is your site will die, penniless and alone.
TheContent Modulehas most of the editing features you might find in a word processing program.
Not tooo shabby, eh?
Of course, it would look better if there were some real content in there.
That’s the trifecta right there, folks.
Naturally, this all begs the question.
How much can you make with a DevHub website?
Well, I don’t really know.
That’s pretty much up to your ability to market the site and drive visitors to it.
Let’s say you only make about a hundred bucks a month from your site.
That’s fairly high for a new site, but it can be done.
It’s not that much is it?
However DevHub allows you to set up 10 different sites for free.
Keep in mind the entire process from start to finish took me less than ten minutes.
Instant web presence and not a dime out of pocket.
There you have it folks!
Don’t thank me, thank DevHub.
