How to Make Money at Home Using Web Design (8 Steps)


Open a web hosting account for your business. Choose an account type that allows you to host several sites on one account, since you'll need to do this to design websites for companies.
Buy a web domain for your business. Choose a professional name for the domain that clearly states who you are or that you are a web designer. For example, choose 'robsmithwebdesign.com' or 'wonderfulwebdesigns.com,' not 'smithsspectacularsite.com.'
Put your web design skills to work making your website look professional and informative of the services you provide. Refer to web design manuals to learn the most up-to-date skills to impress potential clients.
Contact businesses in your area that don't currently have websites to convince them of the value of an Internet presence, namely that they can access more potential customers. Refer them to your website to show them what you can do.
Estimate how long it would take you to design a website for the company, according to what the client requests. If you'll also have to maintain the website, estimate how much time it will take you to do that each month. Determine a price for your services based on this and quote it to the client. Require a portion of your fee upfront to protect yourself in the event that the client refuses to pay you for the website when you finish.
Contact your web hosting company to set up a website for the client on your account. Choose a domain name that the company agrees to and that won't confuse the public as to whose website it is. (For example, avoid a domain like 'titostacos.com' for Tito's Mexican Restaurant if there is a local restaurant called Tito's Tacos.) Set up login information for this website that is different from your main website to allow the client to log in, if necessary.
Design the website according to the client's requests, checking in as you work to make sure that you're going in the right direction. Do as much work as possible to prevent confusion on the client's part when you turn the website over to him. For example, install an online store with categories already in place in case your client doesn't know how to make store categories.
Deliver the website login information to your client, along with instructions for use. Collect the remainder of your payment. If you'll be maintaining the website for the client, provide a written notice of how much money he will owe you each month for your services.

How to Get a Wine Tasting Permit


Find out whether your wine tasting qualifies for a special-occasion permit. Special-occasion permits are for events, such as weddings, charitable fundraisers and community festivals. A permit like this is normally good for a week or less, depending on state laws.
Seek out your state's liquor-control board online. You can find state-specific instructions on how to apply for a license or permit to keep you in good legal standing in your area. You can find the appropriate State alcohol-control board at the Marin Institute website (see Resources below).
Take a look at local applications and permit requirements by accessing your state's website via USA.gov (see Resources below).
Check the requirements for frequency limitations on special-occasion permits. If you plan on hosting more that one tasting event, be aware that some states have varying rules regarding the number of special permits you can get throughout the year.
State where your event will be held when you contact your local board. The need for a permit depends on where your event will be held and whether you plan to sell the alcohol or serve it to your guests free of charge. If you are simply hosting a tasting party in your private residence, you need not worry.
Indicate on your application whether you will be using public streets during your event. If the event blocks access to any part of a street, you will need to get approval from the local municipal authority and attach it to the permit application.
Prepare a description of the room in which the wine tasting will be held. Some agencies will need the measurements of the room and a specific description about what it will be used for, such as storage, bottling and serving.

How to Get Radio Stations to Co


Decide if you want to ask the radio stations for funding or services. You can also let the radio station choose what they want to give, but generally, you should only have one radio station hosting the event, providing music and entertainment.
Make a list of area radio stations that might be interesting in co-sponsoring your event. You might choose to contact all of the radio stations, or you might limit your requests to certain stations, depending on the type of event you're planning. For example, local rock stations might be perfect sponsors for an event for high school students, while talk radio stations might not be. You can find radio stations in your area by visiting Radio-Locator.com.
Figure out what kind of exposure the different levels of radio sponsors will receive at the event. For example, the radio station that donates $5,000 should get more advertising space and exposure than one that donated $500. Know what you can offer before you approach the radio stations.
Ask the radio stations in your area if they’re interested in sponsoring your event. Make sure you let them know what they'll be receiving in return for sponsoring your event in terms of exposure at the event, inclusion in marketing materials and actual advertising space. Share with them how much more exposure they can receive if they donate more.

How to Fix an Internet Server (4 Steps)


Check for service outages. This is the major cause of concern when it comes to server problems. If service is interrupted, you will not be able to access the Internet. Call your Internet Service Provider and see if there are outages in your area or if your service has been canceled. If you can do anything to get service restored, do so.
Contact your server company to see if your contract has expired or if you no longer have service with the company. The server company or hosting company can limit your access to your server if you aren't fulfilling your side of the contract or haven't paid your bill. Do whatever is necessary, such as signing a new contract, paying your bill or changing hosting companies, until your service is restored.
Unplug your modem and router from your server connection if you've explored service and server issues and both are working properly. Leave them unplugged for at least 10 minutes and then plug them back in. See if you can connect to your server.
Contact your server's help desk if you still cannot connect. It could be that the company has some type of hardware or software issue causing you to not be able to get online.

How to Organize a Home Business Expo (6 Steps)


Your very first step is to decide on the place you will hold the event in. To do this you'll need to be able to hold about 15 vendors and tables of at least 6 ft long. Consider your other factors- are you offering refreshments? Will you need a rest room? How long is the event?
Start contacting your vendors next. Go directly to a local rep and let them know you are showcasing home businesses that moms can do in the area and want them to be included. Hand out a form with all the information available about the event specifics including the vendors cost and what is being supplied in return.
Begin your advertising. Write your own press release if you can or call the paper and tell them what your doing. Make flyers and pass them around town. Consider giving them out at PTA events and other places that cater to women and mothers. Inform local radio and television stations.
Collect the payments paid by the vendors who sign up and keep a ledger of who has paid. Detail all of your expenses for room rental, advertising, food etc and pay yourself back as your payments come in. Always keep in mind that you may need cash for something unexpected.
Hang out your sign and have your business expo. You can enjoy meeting the women business owners in your own back yard and know that you've opened the door to new home businesses to your communities women.
Follow up your job fair by sending thank you cards and questionnaires. File everything away in a file for next year!
