By Derrick Goodfriend
When you think of a web portal, who do you think of? Yahoo, Lycos, Altavista, and
others, perhaps? Did you know that you could create your own that people would want
to go to? Well you can! In this article you will find many different ways to
enhance your website and create a web portal.
1. Your primary content
Your primary content is important when starting your own web portal. It's the core
of your website and it's what your visitors see first. In addition to your own
content, there are many different options when it cones to choosing where you get
your content from. One great source is
SubPortal.com.
With SubPortal.com you get everything you need, all co-branded with your logo. It
comes fully loaded with news, weather, comics, a download section, online games, and
more. Also, if you only need news or weather on your site, you can try
Moreover.com for news and
Weather.com has different weather forecasting
options available for your site.
2. Your secondary content
Your secondary content is also important to your web portal's development. You have
a number of choices when it comes to your secondary content:
For your own e-greeting card service, go to
Regards.com For your own search engine, go to
Curryguide.com and look for the VSE. For a free e-mail service, try
Everyone.net or
Bigmailbox.com. For a free MP3 search box, try
eMP3finder.com These are only a few suggestions
as to what your seconday content can be.
3. Add a web store
One way to make money for your web portal is to add a web store. At
Cafepress.com, you can add your logo or any
image to a wide variety of product for sale. They set a base price and you can set
your price higher than their base price to earn a commission from the sales.
You can also go through Amazon.com and earn a
commission selling books from your site. Using these techniques you should begin to
create your own web portal and maintain it. Keep searching the web for more content
and helpful services that your visitors will enjoy.
