How to Make a Hit Counter in Dreamweaver (19 Steps)
Navigate to your Web host's homepage and see if they offer free hit counters. If they don't, go to another Web host that does. Bravenet, for example, offers free hit counters and other Web tools even if you don't have a host account with them (see Resources).
Click the link to the hit counter tool. You may need to register with the Web host in order to download the code, but the registration should be free. If not, look elsewhere. Bravenet's hit counter is free.
Click the button to create a new hit counter. You will be prompted to enter a name for the counter and provide the URL of the page you want to add the counter to.
Choose settings and then the look for your counter.
Select (highlight) and copy the Javascript code the Web host puts on the screen for you.
Open Dreamweaver and open the Web page you want to add the hit counter to.
View the HTML code for your page by clicking the 'CODE' button at the top of the window, then click at the location where you want the counter to appear. Usually counters are placed at the bottom of the page above the closing 'BODY' tag.
Select 'Paste' from the Edit menu and the code for the hit counter will be inserted. Save changes, upload the page to your Web server and view it in your Web browser to test.

How to Change Your Domain Hosting
Research alternative Web hosting companies to find a service offering the features you need for your website at the best price.
Open an account with a new Web hosting company.
Log into your account with your current Web host.
Download all of your files from the host's server using the backup tool offered in the Web host's control panel or an FTP client application. Be sure to download all of your files. This includes any HTML files, picture files, audio files, flash files, INC files, CSS files, and so forth.
Back up your blog and Web forum database (if applicable) using a MySQL administration tool such as phpMyAdmin.
Log into your account with your new Web hosting company.
Obtain the DNS server information for the new Web hosting company. You will need this information later to update your DNS records to point to this new Web host server.
Upload all of the files for your website (downloaded in Step 4) to the new host's server.
Install the backup copy of your blog and forum database (created in Step 5) to the new host's server using their MySQL administration tool.
Log into your account with your original Web hosting company. Navigate to the Domain Name manager tool offered in the host's control panel. Edit your DNS records to reflect the server name associated with your new Web host. Submit the update. It can take up to 24 hours for the DNS records update to take effect globally. During this time your website will go off-line.
Visit your website. Check everything out to make sure all your Web pages have migrated successfully, the design elements of the site are still in tact, the website forum and blog are functioning properly, and so forth. Only after you're certain everything with your website is as it's supposed to be should you move on to the next step because you have mistakenly neglected to backup a stray file or two.
Cancel your account with your Web hosting company.

How to Make a Clan Website
Sign up for Web hosting with the host of your choice. Examples of popular paid hosts include Hostgator, HostMonster, and GoDaddy. There are also free Web hosts such as Webs or Wordpress.
Install a free content management system such as Wordpress or Joomla. Content management systems act as platforms for your website---you can manage your website's content and appearance with ease using these systems. These systems eliminate the hassle of manually editing and configuring each of your web pages, which is why millions of websites use them. Your Web host has a tool that automatically installs these systems for you. If you are having trouble finding it, contact customer support. (Keep in mind that Wordpress Web hosting comes pre-installed with the Wordpress content management system.) Installation is very straightforward and should take no more than a minute or two---just follow the instructions.
Navigate to your content management system admin panel login page. The link for this page is provided for you after installation. Log in with the credentials you provided at installation.
Add content to your website using your CMS. You have the option of creating new Web pages, publishing posts, and more. Wordpress has a text/HTML (HyperText Markup Language) editor built into it. You may wish to publish an application for aspiring members to fill out, general clan information, and upcoming events. Ultimately, you are the webmaster---it is up to you to decide what to publish on your site.
Personalize your website. Wordpress and Joomla both have highly customizable widgets that you can drag and drop into various parts of the Web page. They also have visual themes that instantly change the appearance of your entire website. In addition, they have plug-ins that allow you to add additional functions to your website----for example, the 'Akismet' plug-in filters out spam comments from appearing on your website.
