How to… Create a Website on Windows Home Server

By on July 8, 2007 in Add-ins & Apps, Windows Home Server

Andrew Grant’s written an excellent “How To” guide on using his Whiist add-in to create a website, hosted on your Windows Home Server, that friends and family around the world can access remotely.

The guide is a great introduction to Whiist and discusses some of the options in Whiist, the files that compose your website, and how IIS (the webserver in Windows Home Server) deals with documents.

Check out the guide at Andrew’s blog.

    Designing and creating a website is piece of cake these days.It is no more difficult than using a word processing program or drawing a picture on a blank piece of paper indeed.The best thing to start with is to consider your reasons for doing so. It is very important to have a goal or target audience in mind.To create a website, there are a number of good free and paid builders available. Fortunately, some are quite easy to learn. In fact, after a few hours of playing around you could get a professionally looking website up and running !And if you want to add in a few more advanced tricks you can insert these without having to really understand the way they work – you’ll fathom out as and when you need to.I think the message really is just experiment and try different things out until you find something you can work with.
